All Chapters of Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

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

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

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

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

I slowly turned, coming face to face with a black guard. He was the one I had just felt his presence. The way he stealthily moved through the bushes disclosed that he was an Eastmoon wolf. "Who are you, and why do you have the Alpha’s face?!" For a second, I was blank. How could he have known so easily? Unless this man had been following and studying for a long time before I got to this entrance. "I'm your Alpha!" My voice shook, and I winced at the way it did. "You are a woman trespassing. Not my Alpha." I edged closer to the wall, but the second my hands and back touched the wall of the building, the Taigh crumbled, taking me unawares. Did I just do that? First, the ground shook, distracting the black guard. It shook harder, and he and I lost our balance. Blocks of the crumbling building began pelting on the ground like rain and on us. I saw him struggling to reach for his gun that had tumbled out of his hand, and I ran, knowing fully well he was about to pull the trigger.
