Mercedes' POV 

“I thought I would never get better,” Penelope told me as I gave her a spoon of chicken soup and she eagerly opened her mouth.

“Of course you were going to get better.” I replied as I handed her the bowl and watched as she struggled to feed herself.

“Miss Mercedes took care of you. Daddy says that's why you got better,”” Carter announced from beside me and my heart warmed.

“That was what your daddy told you?” I asked and Carter nodded.

I bit my bottom lip as I tried to stifle the smile which was forming on my lips.

“Thank you Miss Mercedes,” Penelope beamed up at me and I caressed her hair.

“Your welcome darling,” I replied as I retrieved Penelope's drugs from the drawer with a sly smile on my face.

“But that won't stop you from finishing your medication,” I told her with a pointed look and s

  • The Alpha's Ex-Con Human Nanny    Chapter 86

    Mercedes' POV I gulped as I looked away from Bradley and I wished I could just run out of the room…anything would be better than having him this close to me yet being unable to touch him as I wished to.What was wrong with me?“I got a letter from court today,” I announced as I took another step away from him in an attempt to clear my head.Bradley remained silent but quirked a brow in my direction and I searched his face for any hint at all that he was behind this.“They said all charges have been dropped,” I informed him. His face was blank, neither showing surprise nor awareness.He was going to make me ask, wasn't he?“Did you do this Mr. Ford?” I questioned.“Do what?” He asked and I offered him a deadpan look.“Did you somehow get the court to drop all the charges? That's the only explanation, that's the only plausible reason as to why I received that letter today.” I pointed out but Bradley's expression remained the same.“Why did you do it?” I inquired.“Would you have rather

  • The Alpha's Ex-Con Human Nanny    Chapter 85

    Bradley's POV “You asked for a favour and I had to pull some strings to make that happen Mr. Ford.” Mrs. Jenkins stared at me across the table with a scowl on her face.“And now I'm asking for another favour,” I replied as I leaned back in my seat.We both knew this was mere formality; her, pretending like she wasn't going to give me what it was I wanted and me, pleading for a ‘favour’.At this point I wondered why we even bothered with the ruse.“Why do you care so much who leaked the information anyways? You got the charges dropped, isn't that what's really important?” She asked and I sighed.“What I want to do with that information is none of your business.” I told her and she seemed taken aback by my bluntness. Her scowl deepened but I knew she would still give me the information I needed.“Has she ever told you about Dylan Cooper?” Mrs. Jenkins asked and my wife growled within me.Dylan? Mercedes ex boyfriend who had her thrown in jail to save his ass?“He was behind this?” I as

  • The Alpha's Ex-Con Human Nanny    Chapter 84

    Mercedes' POV My heart jumped as I heard a knock on the library door before Ethan poked his head into the room and I let out a sigh of relief but my relief was short-lived.“Is anyone here to see me?” I asked as I rose from my chair and Ethan quirked a brow at me.“Are you expecting anyone?” He questioned and I averted his eyes.“Well…not exactly.” I muttered.How could I possibly tell him that I was expecting a subpoena from court? I was almost a hundred percent sure he knew about the fake ID but thankfully he had never brought it up and I would like to keep it that way.“Uncle Ethan, come see my drawing.” Carter called out from the corner of the room where he had been bent in concentration for the last thirty minutes.“I'll be right there champ,” Ethan replied before he turned back to me.“Are you alright?” Ethan asked as his eyes searched mine and I gave him an unsure smile as I nodded.“I'm fine,” I replied but he didn't seem convinced. Could he just come out and ask whatever it

  • The Alpha's Ex-Con Human Nanny    Chapter 83

    Bradley's POV “Daddy!” Penelope squealed when I stepped into the dining room.“Good morning princess,” I said as I strolled towards my daughter and gave her a kiss on her cheek before I turned to Carter and gave him one on his forehead.“How are you all doing?” I asked as I looked around the table, trying my best to feign ignorance at Mercedes' presence.The children went on a rant and began to tell me all they had done throughout their day and I could partly hear what they were saying as my eyes were zoned in on Mercedes who squirmed uncomfortably in her chair and looked like she would rather be anywhere but in the same room as me.“How was your day Mercedes?” I questioned and the entire table went silent as I had never bothered to ask in the past.I felt Benjamin and Ethan's gaze on me but I ignored them. Mercedes' eyes rose for a second and met mine before she dropped them to her plate once more and played around with her food.“I followed the kids around for most of the day,” she

  • The Alpha's Ex-Con Human Nanny    Chapter 82

    Mercedes' POV The moment the words left my lips I wished I could take them back as I realized my slip up. What the hell was wrong with me?I was alone with Bradley in his conference room, I was alone with a werewolf and I just admitted I knew what he really was.He could kill me right at this moment if he wished to. How could I have been so stupid to let my emotions cloud my judgement like that?My eyes snapped up to Bradley's and his gaze on me remained eerily calm. What was he thinking…the best way to dispose of me?“Bra-Mr. Ford,” I began as my heart hammered against my chest and I wondered how I would apologize and get myself as far away from him as possible.“A werewolf huh?” He asked as the side of his lips twitched and I wondered what he could possibly find funny in a situation like this.“I didn't mean that. I was just angry and speaking in the heat of the moment,” I said softly as all the fight had somehow been drained from me.Bradley let go of my hand and took a step away

  • The Alpha's Ex-Con Human Nanny    Chapter 81

    Mercedes' POV“Benjamin, get out.” Bradley announced when the man in question made no move to leave the room.“Bradley I think-” Benjamin began but Bradley cut him a look.“Now,” he commanded with authority.Benjamin looked between Bradley and I for a moment before he headed towards the door and cast me a look as though to wish me luck before he left the room and the door shut behind him with a click.The room was eerily silent and my nerves spiked. Not for the first time since I stepped into the room I regretted my decision but it was already too late for that.Bradley and I stared at each other for a long hard moment, a sort of silent battle. His darkened brown orbs bore into my skin and heat rose within me but I ignored it.I tried to remember why I was here to begin with and not let Bradley's presence sway me.He cocked a brow at me and I folded my arms in front of my
