The Alpha’s Nanny. Chapter 27
Gabriel woke up well rested the next morning. He had tried to get out of bed twice when Emilia got fussy but despite his protests, Lori promised to handle it. So when he woke up and still found her sleeping he decided to give her more time to sleep. She would not be accompanying him anyways. He had thought long and hard about it and decided that it was very risky for him to bring her along. Especially since there would be certain conversations that he wouldn't be able to talk about in front of her.He would ask her to stay in the hotel, then see Mrs Chrissy Garcia, taking her granddaughter with him. He had decided on an escort last minute, feeling weird that he had travelled without Draco by his side. Gabriel couldn't remember the last time he had traveled without Draco.His escort would be arriving with a car in the next few hours and he only had little time to get there. Sabine had not told him much but from what she described Suzie wasn't in good terms with her mother. But her mot

"What?!"Gabriel asked and Mrs Garcia nodded."It's actually perfectly normal for pups in our pack. We just don't experience growth spurts. It's weird that Emilia is experiencing that. What about you? Did you experience growth spurts?!""I did."Gabriel said, now totally confused, and slightly angry that he might have come all the way to Canada for nothing.Nothing at all. "Although it wasn't as early. My parents said I had one when I was six months old."Mrs Garcia nodded."I'll admit it is strange she is having one so early."Gabriel sighed."Is there anything else about Suzie's medical history that I should know?"He asked and the woman shrugged."Not that many. We are prone to difficult births in our families. If Suzie had given birth in the traditional family way, she might still be alive. But that's besides that. I assume you will have to deal with the asthma...""She'll grow out of it after her first shift."Mrs Garcia said and Gabriel shook his head."No. Emilia doesn't have

"I'm in the hot tub!!!"Lori called out quickly, embarrassed as she swiftly jumped out of the tub and wrapped the first towel she could see around herself. Luckily, her clothes were still with her so she put them back on, despite the fact that she was still wet. She quickly tried to dry as much water off her skin as she could. She ran out of the bathroom, Gabriel and Emilia were back."How was it?"She asked as he sat down on the sofa, he set the baby carrier next to him while he pulled off his shoes. Lori couldn’t help but notice that he looked like wasn’t in a good mood. "Good. Emilia slept all through, then she woke up when we got to the hotel."He said and Lori went to peep at the baby in the baby carrier. Emilia was sucking on a pacifier.“Is everything okay?"She asked as she saw that he looked a bit off, he was reclined on the sofa while he ran his hand through his hair and sighed. Gabriel nodded."Yes. Just not what I was expecting..."He answered. He looked up at her and

Gabriel was in a mood the rest of the night. He stayed up on his laptop working on the couch till one am. And when he finally went to bed, he slept on the sofa. Lori wondered if his current mood was because of the visit. Nevertheless his mood bothered her, greatly.She didn’t like tiptoeing around people’s moods, because she was always too fixated on what she would say or do that could eventually annoy them. The next morning, he was better, helping her with baby and making jokes about how they would go club hopping when they landed. He was better but she still couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong with him. They had breakfast in silence and a man named Luco arrived to drive them to the airport. Lori changed into a pair of pants, white shirt and paired with a green sweater she had bought recently while shopping for a coat. Lori held the baby while Luco and a frontman helped with their luggage. Finally, they were leaving, she thought as they all walked inside the elev

It was just as if they had never left. Everything was exactly the same. Gabriel went back to work immediately they got out of the plane, leaving Tony to take her and the baby home. Back home, Grace wasn’t back yet, but Elliot was in and he was sitting in the living room when she came downstairs to make a bottle.He was wearing the usual beach shorts he seemed to have a lot of and he was also wearing a grey sweatshirt. “Hey!”He called out cheerfully as he waved at her.“Hey.”Lori said shyly. She wasn’t totally comfortable around him yet. She was still a bit weary of him, especially with what Gabriel said about him.She couldn’t avoid him though, they lived under the same roof, technically not in the same house. “I heard you went on a trip. Canada.”Lori nodded.“Have you been?”He shook his head.“No. I haven’t. But I hear it’s cold this time of the year.”“It is.”“So what were you guys doing there?”He persisted and Lori raised her eyebrow.“Why are you so curious?”She asked an

His Grandfather was back home. And calling him incessantly. Gabriel could only assume that meant trouble. The man was like ninety years old, he was also retired and he had promised to stay out of his business. Seemed like that was a lie.Gabriel wasn’t about to be bothered about all that, it was one thing he refused to add to his plate. That could wait. Besides, he knew his grandfather would go to DC first to see Elliot's mother. They had a weird relationship. They were unnecessary close and far too invested in the lives of the people around them Anyways he was tired. Exhausted. Canada had been a complete waste of time. He just wanted to get back home and have a nice dinner with Lori and kiss his daughter goodnight. He needed sleep, rest and a little bit of distraction.It also didn’t help that he had mounting sexual frustration. Ever since Emilia had been conceived Gabriel had been more careful with women. He knew what happened with Emilia was an accident but he decided to be more i

Her lips were soft, almost silken, and pillowy against his own. He could feel the soft tickle of her breath beneath his nose, fingers running through her hair as they breathed each other in.Warmth blossomed in Lori's chest, sparks igniting as Gabriel leaned in closer, his lips kissing hers softly, gently, almost as if he was afraid to break her. The smell of his cologne, his minty breath, it was dizzying, butterflies were dancing in her stomach. But warmth consumed her as she leaned into the kiss, Gabriel's lips soft against her own. His tongue teased her gently and Lori opened up more to him, tentatively letting him play with her tongue. Gabriel's hand traveled down to her neck, caressing her slightly while his hand travelled to the front of her tank top. He cupped one of her breasts in his hand and Lori jerked. She broke away from him and sat upright, her cheeks burning in embarrassment. She looked away, her hair hiding her face like a dark curtain. "I'm sorry."She apologized

"We named him Jack." Mrs Fuller said after a long silence. "Jack Joseph Fuller."Lori nodded, forcing a smile on her face. Jack. That was a nice name. A lovely name even. "I'm sorry we hid him from you Lori. But you must understand. We were so angry..."Angry?!If they were angry then she must have been out of her mind, because as far as memory served her, she was the one who was rushed to the hospital, she was the one who gave birth to him. "We blamed you for everything. For his death.""Jack. Jack was our miracle baby. He was supposed to be the one who changed things for us.""Yoh have no idea how broken I felt when he died."Broken?! Lori scoffed. What about her? It wasn't exactly a walk in the park for her either."It was like all hope had been snatched away from me."Lori shook her head.No. They didn't have any right to make her feel that way. To make her feel like she didn't care about him too."He was my son.""My son."She repeated as she pointed to herself. "I put him u
