Nanny and the Alpha Daddy

Chapter 124

#Chapter 124: Alpha Daddy to the Rescue

Moana

I didn’t sleep in Edrick’s room that night, and he never came to my room to sleep with me. I had to admit that I felt a little lonely without him, but I simply couldn’t get over everything he had said to me. It felt as though I had no choice in the matter, and now I was stuck in a fake relationship that I didn’t ask to be in and would have to change myself to fit the role of the “billionaire’s fiancee”.

Not only that, but what had he meant when he said that I should be prepared to “pay the price” for falling in love with someone else?

There was no denying the fact that we were both young, and it would be nearly impossible for either of us to live our entire lives without feeling love for anyone else. Maybe it was natural for Edrick to be closed off and without intimacy, but it wasn’t natural for me. I craved a loving relationship with a good man not just for my baby’s sake, but for my own sake, too. What woman didn’t want to feel loved and cared for?

But then again, I did feel a little cruel for what I said. I supposed that it was a bit of a double standard for me to be angry with Edrick to even consider a fake relationship with someone else while I considered falling in love with someone else someday, and maybe I shouldn’t have said that. In the moment, it felt right, but it didn’t feel so good when I thought about it while laying alone in my bed.

…

The next morning, I woke up shortly before Edrick left for work and ran into him on my way to the kitchen to make tea.

“Good morning,” I choked out, feeling my heart race as we passed each other. Edrick replied with hardly more than a grunt and brushed past me, leaving me standing in the middle of the dining room by myself.

Of course I expected there to be tension between us, but as I heard the elevator doors open and close without Edrick so much as saying goodbye, I felt even worse about the situation.
