Semua Bab The Alpha's Ex-Con Human Nanny : Bab 141 - Bab 150

Mercedes' POV I wrapped my arms around myself as the tears rolled down my face. The more I stared at the body before me the more I willed it to all be some bad dream but it wasn't.Nicole's lifeless body laid before me in the exact position it had been in since she was shot, the only difference being she was missing a hand.This was all my fault, I did this to her.A retching sob escaped me and I placed a hand over my mouth to stifle the sounds. If only I had never come to her when I returned to Minnesota, she would still be alive now.“Nicole, I'm so sorry.” I whispered over and over again just like I had for the past two days.I didn't care that her body was smelling and had begun to rot, I didn't care that the pool of blood around her body was making a trail down towards me, all I wanted was my friend back. She didn't deserve to die that way.The door to the dungeon abruptly pulled open and I stared up at the rogue with hate and disgust.“You monster!” I screamed while he merely s

Bradley's POV “Ben, I was wondering when you were going to come in.” A young woman who was about six months pregnant approached us and Benjamin let out a sigh of relief as he pulled her I to his arms and kissed her. The woman melted against him and they kissed as though they forgot they were in the midst of others.Shock coursed through me as I had never seen Benjamin so relaxed and calmed by anyone before…I wasn't even aware he was capable of such tender feelings.Ethan cleared his throat beside me and they reluctantly pulled apart. Benjamin turned to us and I didn't miss the flash of annoyance which passed by his eyes as they landed on Ethan and I. The tip of my lips tugged upwards as I knew exactly what he must have been feeling.“Bradley, this is my mate, Ariel. I met her shortly after you left,” he informed me and my eyes bulged.“How come you never told me you found your mate?” I questioned. Benjamin and I had talked quite frequently over the months and he had never mentioned o

Mercedes' POV “My name is Aria,” the woman informed me.“Mercedes,” I muttered.“Oh I know who you are.” She told me with a shrug and my brows furrowed in confusion.“You are all they've been talking about for weeks. Do you have any idea how long they've been planning to capture you?” She asked and a shudder ran through me at her words.What was I meant to do with that information?“You are a pretty girl so I get it. I get why an alpha would be so hung up on you.” The woman, Aria, told me and my eyes bulged.How the hell did she know so much about me?“How do you know all this?” I questioned.“When you stay long enough you become more of a guest without the right to leave than a prisoner.” She told me but my confusion must have shown on my face.“They talk freely around me, as though I don't even exist or my hearing doesn't matter.” Aria added and I nodded slowly.“How long have you been here?” I asked and Aria's lips spread into a sad smile.“I lost count after it clocked three mont

Mercedes' POV  I felt Bradley's eyes on me as we stepped into his room and he carefully dropped me onto my two feet. I stared around the room for a second and a series of memories hit me. Now they all felt as though it was a lifetime ago.A knock echoed in the room and Bradley muttered a reply. The door pulled open and the maids rushed into the room with a fresh set of clothes, a first aid kit and a tray of food enough to feed an army.I watched as they deposited all they had in their hands before they turned and left the room, leaving Bradley and I in silence once more.“I'm going to take your clothes off okay? You need a bath,” he told me softly before he took a step closer to me and gently pulled off my shirt.I remained silent and stepped out of my joggers when he lowered it. Bradley's gaze lingered over me for a moment and I saw a hint of desire as well as guilt in his depths.“T

Mercedes' povI sipped my orange juice and avoided Bradley's gaze which had been on me the entire day. After his words earlier, I wasn't exactly sure where we stood.Did this mean he cared about me? Did it change anything or did he mery rescue me because he felt guilty.“Can I ask you something?” I broke the silence between us as Bradley picked the tray from his bed and placed it on the side table.“Of course,” he said as he sat at the foot of the bed.“Well…why did you leave Alyssa to come get me? I know you both care about each other and you are going to get mated one day but-” the rest of my words were caught off as Bradley placed a hand over my lips.“What are you talking about Mercedes? Alyssa and I were never going to mate.” He told me and my heart hammered against my chest at his words.“But she said-”“I don't care what she said. I've never been at
