Nanny and the Alpha Daddy

#Chapter 243: Daddy’s Home

Moana

As I ran across the back lawn to the mansion, I could see Selina, the maids, and several security guards come running outside with scared looks on their faces.

All of them froze, their mouths hanging open, as I approached.

“Moana…?” Selina said quietly as she took a tentative step toward me. I nodded and slowed my pace.

“Moana is the Golden Wolf!” Amy yelled out loud, cupping her face excitedly. “I can’t believe it!”

“I’ll be damned…” One of the security guards, Darren, slowly walked up to me with his eyes wide. “I never thought the Golden Wolf was anything but a fairy tale for kids.
