All Chapters of Protecting The Royal Babies: Nanny For A Wife: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

My head spun in geometric circles. My stomach churned. I opened my eyes, coming face-to-face with a dimly lit room. The man Styker sat on a throne covered in animal skin. Big deer horns were attached to each end of the head rest. He drank wine, watching me with amused eyes. "Queen Athena. Your presence warms my throne room." He said, speaking like a drunk. I spat and glared at him from where I stood, hands bound in a chain rooted into the far ceiling above us. This was hell, and I still didn't know what the devil wanted from me. "Who are you?!" He frowned, thoughtful for a moment before taking another sip from his goblet. "I already told you my name." "It doesn't ring a bell—" The finger he raised while shaking his head stopped the words in my mouth. Confusion masked my face. I didn't understand anything happening now. Did he have the right person? "It should ring a bell, Athena. The fact that it doesn't, has me wanting to keep you here forever. It means you are not who you clai

CARA'S POV I staggered once, holding onto the wall next to the door to stable myself. The man wearing the hat looked at me, and it was exactly the way I remembered it. I always wondered where that black hat had gone to when I came to the palace. I thought he had moved on from it now that he had become the Lycan King. But I thought wrong because he hadn't become the Lycan King. He never discarded his black hat. I mistook Kaloyan Kaine for the wrong monster. They were different people all along, but how? Edward Kaine only had one son. At least, that was what I knew. I knew of one Master Kaine. One heir to the Kaine house rulership. Master Kaine stood on his feet. He removed his hat and bowed to me. It was the first time I met his hair. In the past, I had never been chanced to, but my voice had run for its life. I shook like a tree leaf, scared to death in his presence. What if he could tell the difference? What if he would realise it immediately? "Queen, Athena. We've never met

The next morning, I couldn't eat. I couldn't even be with the twins. Damn Aisling for giving me that sliver of hope only to realise it had all been false. Druid queen, my ass. I used wipes on my face, cleaning off my tears and getting ready to leave my bedroom. I opened the door, and I found Lord Ezra standing right there with a smug smile on his face. "Mrs. Kaine." He gave a mock bow, even though he should have spared me the false formalities. I glared at him, wondering. To what did I owe this early morning surprise. "It's about the princes." My attention piqued. I stepped out of the room, wearing an unbuttoned flannel shirt over a white crop top and rugged jeans. I felt exhausted and out of my element, so I rebelled against 'the royal look' "You look interesting today." "Please, you are the last person I expect to hear about my looks from." We walked, and I was still curious. He had only baited me out of my room, using the princes. It was a solemn day at the Eastmoon palace.

Joseph stood in my path. I gave him only thirty seconds in my head. Thirty seconds, and I would have to uproot him from my way. One. Two. He eyed my tall frame with a mocking smirk. "Huh, I don't see your cane. I guess it took only a good fuck to complete your healing." Thirty. "Get the hell out of my way." I grimaced while he grinned, knowing he annoyed the life out of me right now. But Joseph loved stepping on my nerves. He lived to make my life a living hell. As brothers, he made that possible. As enemies, he's still making that possible. "Lovers quarrel." He pointed over his shoulder, keeping a mock-concerned look. "It happens all the time. You should let her be. If I were you—" "Joseph, you would never be me!" I stepped in his face and spat. "Now, move." Waking up from the verge of death had only made me angrier at my brother. He had successfully made me this close to hating his guts forever. They said blood was thicker than water. It wouldn't be any thick in this case,

CARA'S POV "Daddy's birthday is tomorrow." Jardran said excitedly as I watched his legs dangle off the countertop. We had already established that countless times, but they were just too excited to keep their mouths shut. I didn't know where Kaloyan was now, but I didn't care to know. He could be burning hell, and I wouldn't even bat an eyelash. Pathological liars say all sorts of things to convince even themselves. I guess myself wasn't the exception. I would cry a river if anything happened to that asshole, but him burning in hell wouldn't make me bat an eyelash? Unconsciously, I swiped through the cookery book, now not even caring to look at the title of the dishes because my mind was on their father. It was late. Where could he have gone? "Earth to Athena!" Jared snapped his fingers over my eyes. I blinked out of my thoughts, remembering myself and the little mission we had to complete tonight. The twins would even stay awake past their bedtime. "I know what we should do.
