Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 42: Demon Boy
Those dark webbed veins and frozen skin. The sight was horrific. Though, I hadn't fallen on my arse like a weakling. My guard had caught my arm before I could. I was grateful, but I couldn't speak any words. The crowd that gathered at the scene began whispering amongst themselves. They looked green in the face, probably thought something from hell had done this, and they were right. Demons. The kind that attacked Ian, the brother of Dax months ago, did this. But I had thought they weren't a cause for concern. I was almost certain we wouldn't be seeing any more of cases like Ian's. I felt it had been an unintended defect. Hospitals in the city hadn't reported any abnormal cases to the office of the King of Eastmoon, not that I knew what went down inside there. My point is, why now? After long silence, what business do demons have with the people and wolves of Eastmoon? "Guards! Take boy to the royal physician!" Beta Reece raised his voice at once. His royal title as the King's ass

"There are names you should never speak of in your lifetime, Lord Henry. More so, within the boundary of the Eastmoon palace." "But if your brot—" "Physician, do your job. I'm waiting." Kaloyan interjected while Lord Henry fell back after clearing his throat awkwardly. Kaloyan stood next to the boy. I hid further behind them, thinking my mouth and my slip up would be forgotten now that their Alpha was here. They wouldn't believe me if I claimed next that it had been a lie. Kaloyan wouldn't buy it. "The film over his eyes looks like a spell cast over his mind. If my years of knowledge still stand, this is a demon's victim lying here." The physician told Kaloyan, who crossed his arms, focused in thought and on the dying boy. "Demons drain the life out of their victims. They kill them." The general raised, pointing at the body on the table. "If you speak the truth, he should be dead. A clean one at that." "I know what you mean, General Roknan. But this demon did not intend to kill

KALOYAN'S POV I sat in the throne room with the elders. Only the palace wolves had discovered what had happened. The Eastmoon pack was still in the dark, including the humans in this city. The Ravenclaws had brought the boy over as soon as they saw him. The elders sat with gloomy faces watching me and waiting for me to allay their fears, but we were living a nightmare. Nothing, but the head of the demon responsible on a pyke could bring peace back to the city. Just when the rumours of my bastard brother were long dead, another hurdle faced me head-on. One that brought back names I didn't imagine I would ever hear again. When my family’s breeder, Cara Smyth, died alongside Marc Babel on that street, I had known. I had even gone to see her body, not up close, but close enough to know that something wasn't right with it. She didn't have a family, so she had been dumped in the morgue. I didn't like to remember Cara. It took a while to get rid of her from my thoughts. Athena caught my

I stood from my throne again, stunned into silence. I had never heard the name Ximena. The little I knew about Cara's escapades in New York was that she frequented the homes of rogues and wolf criminals. She called herself the doctor, and although I would have killed her at the time if we met again, I was proud. She was living for herself. "What do you know?" "Nightshade." The room gasped before an audible silence befell the space. Every wolf feared wolf's bane and poisons like Nightshade. This is the last thing that should be on a healer's list of medicines. "For every lie, you'll lose a body part, Ms?" "Darlington." She gulped, keeping her dilated eyes trained on me. "Carry on. What about Nightshade poison?" "Ximena and I have never been close. She was disowned by our father at a young age, and since she left Eastmoon, I hadn't seen her until I was called to identify her body." The woman sniffed. Many were moved to jostle her past the sappy part and straight to the point. I

After dismissing my council, I relayed the message of the boy's health myself to the Ravenclaws. They had promised to be loyal to the throne, repairing their relationship with me, and I didn't revoke the help I had offered the boy. I breathed well when I saw him alive. Nonethless, I wasn't at ease. I had let the royal physician off the hook because I didn't know why he did that... yet. Cara Smyth was becoming more and more alive as the hours of this day went by. Athena stormed into my study. She had a temper that had been curtailed by her need to fit into the lifestyle of a royal. I took all of her in. Every single detail. It was something I always did because I've had a gut feeling since day one that something was not right. She crossed her arms above her nice chest as I pretended to work on my desk. I had been guilty of looking as soon as she came in, but I remembered myself. "I'll admit. Your double standards wound me, husband." It was my cue. I was before her in a flash, givin

Athena stepped back abruptly, blinking at the ground, probably entertaining regret after coming to her senses. Her eyes met my narrowedly intense ones almost instantly. "I'm sor—" "Don't. Don't you dare apologise." I barked, my voice tight with need as my hands clenched. Athena stabbed me with a glare. "Watch your tone. Remember you promised." "This is different." "Well, you are not inside me." "Not yet." I couldn't stop the predatory vein in my gaze. I stepped closer. I read the silent permission in the way she hadn’t moved an inch, letting my body come flush against hers, leaving only fabric between us. "Is this what you want?" Her voice had been stolen. "I..." "You have to answer when you are asked a question." I inched closer to her face, but her lips were all I could see. "What do you want, Athena? Say it." A moment passed, despite the pleas in my voice. Moments came and went, too, until she met my stare again, finally holding her own. "I want you, but I don't want to

The one I sought most was somewhere on the globe. New York, perhaps, where the Moon pack was based, but he sure as hell didn't want me to find him. Otherwise, I would have seen Jamal returning home. I worried for my friend, and I worried for his wife, who had only just seen him in ages, only for him to be gone again. "What did you find, Geoffrey?" He brought out a picture of an amulet. Tiny chain stems and leaves curled over half of the gem just like in the one Athena had been wearing at the party. The stems extended to the loop that joined the chain to the gem. It felt magical, like it had been finely embroidered by magic everyone claimed was extinct. "The blue gem amulet. Am I wrong?" "No, this is it. Where did you find it?" "It was inside the forgotten pages of a book in the Eastmoon archives." I narrowed my eyes. "Under my roof. Was it that easy?" "No, it wasn't, Alpha Kaloyan. I went around learning about amulets, and then I found one, a blue gem amulet, with a sigil inscri
Last Updated : 2023-09-06Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 49: A Face Shifter in Eastmoon
CARA'S POV Love. I had asked him to make love to me, and he did. Had I forgotten so easily what he had done to me in his home? I was a traitor he would behead once he discovered the truth. How could I have had sex with him twice? But I couldn't resist him. The reason I was crying hard now was because my body ached for him. The pulsing need between my thighs heightened. I wouldn't be able to think about him without remembering the look on his face as he took my innocence. Kaloyan had been in pain, but it was his desire for me that agonised him, like his restraints were about to fail, and he couldn't let them fail because he didn't want to hurt me. The hardships came to mind again, forcing my tears to flow like a river. My body didn't agree with my brain when it came to him. I was helpless on that part. Mattie opened her door in the rooms below the palace. She saw me crying and concern washed over her face. "What has the Alpha done this time?" I ran into her arms. It was the firs

I arrived at the Eastmoon palace a while later. The cab dropped me off and I wouldn’t be surprised if Miles was tailing me with how abruptly I had left the pack house. The guards at the entrance immediately recognized my face. “I have a message for the Lycan King from Xora, the moon goddess.”The moment they heard the moon goddess, they figured that I was here on important business and they let me into the palace. I didn’t walk, I ran for where I knew Kaloyan would be, his study.But just when I was about to climb up the stairs, the twins shouted my name, “Cara!”They screamed, rushing over to me and I hugged them back, ruffling their hairs although this loud welcome was not what I needed at all. “Where’s Shirley?” I whispered but it was too late.“Right here.” She surfaced at the top of the first landing on the grand staircase. “What are you doing here? Last I checked, the Lycan King had commanded you never to return.”“My business is not with Kaloyan. It is with you.” I glared at
Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 133: Two Days Later
“When is she going to get here?” I huffed and Miles rubbed a hand over my back, placating my impatient pregnant ass.We were receiving Ingrid at the airport. She had travelled to the North pack again and knew nothing about Xander’s arrest. “Just a little more. I know she’d come out next—“Miles hadn’t even finished talking when Ingrid surfaced with her many bags from the airport. I rushed for her, pulling her into a warm hug. “Ingrid!” I shrieked, “how are you, my darling?!”She hugged me tightly like we hadn’t seen each other in years which wasn’t exactly the fact. We helped her put her bags in the trunk, while we were in the car and she rode shotgun, she kept going on and on about her trip. “I can’t wait to see Xander. The last time I left things were pretty tense around here. Miles even had you locked up.” Ingrid’s eyes bulged as she realised she was touching a delicate subject.“It’s fine. He knows he made a grave mistake and is currently paying for it.”“Where’s Xander, Miles
Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 132: The Seventh Protector
I stopped breathing. He had run out and it was my fault because I had put that dagger in Joseph Kaine’s heart. I worried my bottom lip with my teeth, distraught.“You need to rest, Kal.” I held his arm, begging him to not dare leave me behind. He had to fight whatever this was, but I had seen what lacking Joseph’s blood did to him. I knew deep down that he was in grave danger. We had to do something fast. “I won’t die today.” He kissed my cheek tenderly. “Promise me you’ll show up for breakfast.”I thought about it for a second. Being at a table with Shirley made poop more inviting. Though I was eager to see Kal’s next move. Would he fight for whatever we have that we couldn’t seem to get over?“I promise.”He smiled at me, taking his time to let go of my hand until our fingertips parted. I smiled back and offered a tiny wave, wary of the hope I felt inside my heart. Kaloyan would choose me this time around. He had just made a mistake the last time. He just needed to see Shirley’s

I snatched the amulet from his neck while he fell lifeless on the ground. The mask wore off and Miles began to understand what was happening.“What were you thinking, Cara?! That was too dangerous—“I wore the amulet and breathed in power. It coursed through me. Miles stopped in his tracks because he could see it too, what was currently happening. I was becoming one with the gods item. And this had not happened before. “Cara,” he muttered.And I smiled, chest rising and falling hard as I declared, “It’s finally mine, Miles. I’m the rightful Queen of Arzdith Valley and Salems power flows through me!”“No!” Our head snapped to the piercing scream we heard. Reagan bounded over. She slid to the ground at Joseph’s side, shaky hands holding him close. It was weird seeing her this way.I didn’t know evil was capable of loving someone, but I guess it was true. In their own twisted way, they had loved each other. The rest of the protectors and the black guards and Dax’s army dashed over, so
Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 129: Darkness Has Become Whole
The moon goddess was right. I was in the wrong place. The back of the line was not meant for me. I should be looking for Joseph Kaine and cutting deep into his throat. If it was Reagan I found first, even better. I grabbed a sun sword from the ground. The black guard that had been carrying it was dead on the floor. His green eyes were open and lifeless. I said a prayer for his soul as I stepped over him.“Argh!” I screamed, fighting with all my might and casting the fire spell which consumed the blade of my sword. I was slashing through demons at a rate of knots. The fire was destabilising them, giving me the advantage of speed when it should have been the other way around. At the back of my mind, I knew there was something I had to do. Who led the demon army? That question was yet to be answered. I had seen Joseph, Xander and Reagan conniving at the Silver Eye pack, but it seemed I had missed out on the last piece in the band of evils. Two demons came at me. I used my eyes to con

Kaloyan and Miles got down, followed by Sky. I stayed in the backseat, holding the twins close as they approached the cloaked figure. The streets were dark and lonely. There was mist floating in the path ahead of us. A chill coursed through my spine. I didn’t want any more danger. I needed a breather. A moment with my family again—even though, technically, they were no longer mine. When I saw the three of them bowing to the cloaked figure, curiosity had me getting down from the car. I put Jared in charge. He was more mischievous than his brother, but Jardran could never control Jared.“Kal, what’s going on?”I gasped and lost a step when I saw the face underneath the hood. She was as magnificent as Reagan was back in the Silver Eye pack. I gaped at her glittering pale skin and blue eyes. There was no doubt who this was. The one whom only the six protectors were given the luxury of speaking to face-to-face.“Oh my God, you’re Xora. The moon…the moon goddess.” I bowed my head so low
Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 127: Fight For Us
I gulped, freezing for a long moment. There were a thousand and one ways this could go, but neither were about me escaping this unscathed. Reagan was here because he knew. “How did you know?” I sighed, pulling the mask off and switching back to myself.“I dated you. And even though you don't believe a word I'm saying, I loved you once—”“People who love me die, Xander. Stop lying to yourself.”He rolled his eyes and stepped forward to cuff my hands. “Either way, it was easy to tell that you were not my cousin. You escaped. There was only one place Cara would go and that would be to the Order, just to convince Miles that your Lycan King is innocent. Am I wrong?”I said nothing, just staring at the traitor he chose to serve. The evil that would be upon all of us soon. I had to think of a way to save the twins, but I could only come up with a miracle.“So you knew from the moment he texted you that this was going to be a trap?” I gaped at him. “Miles already suspected me the day he lock

CARA’S POVI headed out to meet Xander while wearing Miles’s face. It was highly dangerous because this could be a trap, but I could get to see the twins again and stall him from harming them. That was all that mattered. I drove his fast car, reminiscing the night of the accident when Athena died. It always flashed back to me whenever I sat in a car, but I had gotten used to the memories and the sadness that overtook me.There was a GPS tracker on the car. I carried his cellphone because everything had to be right. Xander couldn’t suspect a thing until we had him fooled. The Silver Eye pack laboratory was close. As I neared it, I said a silent prayer to Xora, begging her to save us all this once. I would protect the twins better if we got out of this mess. “Xander,” I called in a baritone Miles would use when I went down the stairs, leading into the underground laboratory.“You’ve always hated coming here.” His voice came behind me and I snapped my neck to him.He was right there,
Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife 125: Please Don’t Go
KALOYAN'S POVI moved closer to where they stood because I couldn’t keep myself far away from them any longer. I hated the way this wolf looked at Cara. Those eyes of his. I knew what it meant.He was in love with mine. I had no claim over Cara after everything that had happened, but I couldn’t help myself. My wolf still craved her. Her scent still drove me wild. I wished there was a way she would forgive me for the wrong choices I had made. But I wasn't yet out of those wrong choices. Shirley was my mate now.Miles glanced at me and stopped talking, turning away and leading us to where the rest of the Scarlet Order were settled. I walked paces behind Cara, not wanting to invade her personal space, even though my wolf was hungry to feed on her scent. Once we entered the camp, all four of them stood on their feet, their razor sharp gazes pinned on me, the enemy. Miles Kovani seemed to be crossing the line here with my presence.“What is the Lycan King doing here, Commander?” “Sky
