Nanny and the Alpha Daddy

Chapter 187

#Chapter 187: The Hunt

Edrick

When I picked Moana and Ella up from school that day, I could tell that something was off. Moana seemed distant and cold, and stiffened under my touch. Was she really still that angry over what I had said the other day? I was only worried about her, and I didn’t want her to get hurt by going out by herself. Moana was normally a level-headed person, so for her to be so angry over something so simple for days was out of character for her. But I just figured that it was pregnancy hormones, or maybe the potion that the Mother Witch gave me to keep her wolf from emerging was making her a bit cranky.

Moana stayed in her room for the remainder of the day. She said that she wasn’t feeling well, so I figured that it really was the pregnancy after all. I decided to give her plenty of space to rest, but by the time I put Ella to bed that night, Moana still hadn’t come out of her room.

I thought about going into her room and checking on her. But after a few moments of standing silently outside her door, I decided against it, and instead went to bed without her.

A few hours passed after that. I tossed and turned the entire time, and finally I couldn’t take it anymore. I needed Moana by my side in order to sleep; maybe if I talked to her sincerely and apologized for making her angry, she wouldn’t be so cold toward me. I still hadn’t apologized for what I said during our last argument, after all.

I made my way over to Moana’s room and raised my fist to knock on the door.

But when I did, the door just swung open. And Moana’s bed was empty.

Figuring that Ella may have had a bad dream and that Moana was sleeping with her, I decided to go over to Ella’s room. I slowly cracked the door open and peered inside, not wanting to wake Ella up.

What I saw made my blood run cold.
