All Chapters of The Alpha's Ex-Con Human Nanny : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Mercedes' POV I ignored Mr. Ford after putting the kids to bed, not that he made an effort to speak to me, and made my way back to my room.Anger coursed through me as I recalled Mr. Ford's words earlier today.Why was he so hellbent on believing the wolf was a dog? Why wouldn't he even take my words into consideration? Didn't he care about his children's wellbeing to even check it out and ensure there really wasn't anything weird?I scoffed as I slammed the door shut behind me and paced around my room. I cared about the children too much to simply ignore it. What would happen if they were to wander off into the woods and get hurt?I settled into bed and as much as I willed sleep to claim me, it just wouldn't. I tossed and turned in bed for sometime before I finally gave up and decided to get some milk from the kitchen.I made my way down and as I passed by the children's room, I heard a whimper coming from the room.I stilled and pressed my ear against the door and the sound only be

Mercedes' POV A gasp left my lips as I bolted from my bed. I breathed heavily as I looked around but the room was dark.A loud howl echoed through the night and I clung my hands close to my chest. What the hell was that?Another howl pierced through my thoughts and I rushed to my window but there was nothing in sight.That was a howl of a wolf, it had to be…I left my room and rushed towards the children's room, wondering if the howls had woken them up as well.I pulled open their door but stopped in my tracks when I stepped into the room. Carter and Penelope were still soundly asleep, completely oblivious to what was happening around them.I gazed at them with a small smile before I put off their light and headed back to my room.I hugged myself as I heard another howl just as I closed my door and I bolted the door for good measure.Were there really wolves here?I wondered if Mr. Ford was hearing wh

Mercedes' POV “Why can't we meet the guests Miss Mercedes?” Penelope asked me from her place by the window.“Because your daddy doesn't want you to,” I told her and she turned to me with a small frown on her face.“But why?” She probed further.“That's a question you have to ask him,” I told her and she pouted before she turned back to stare out the window.I dropped the book I had been reading and approached her.The guests were arriving in flashy cars which spoke volumes of wealth and affluence. Whoever they were, they must be pretty important.I recalled Mr. Ford's orders and I couldn't help but wonder why he felt a need to hide his children from the visitors.Were they dangerous?“I'm done,” Carter announced from where he had been drawing by the table.“Let me see,” I moved towards him and my brows furrowed as I stared at the image he had created.It was the same wolf, only this time there were two smaller wolves and one stickman who appeared to be a woman.“This is…unique,” I co

Bradley's POV “Meeting adjourned,” I announced and the men began picking their things and filing out of the room.“Good meeting Ford,” a voice called out to me and I stiffened. I had tried my possible best to pretend as though he didn't exist but of course I should have known he would look for the perfect opportunity to seek me out.“Cooper,” I turned to him with a blank expression.“I haven't seen much of you this weekend,” he commented and I shrugged.“I've been busy,” I replied.“Too busy even for your old pal?” I could see he was trying to rile me up. The slight quirk of his lips and the calculating stare on his face told me as much but I wasn't going to give him what he wanted.Cooper Grey was the farthest thing from an old pal. Maybe we were once friends but he broke my trust and I'd be damned if I let him fool me ever again.“Too busy especially for my old pal.” I retorted and he barked out a laugh.“It's been years Brad,” he casually commented.“Yet I remember it as though it

Mercedes' POV “Are they really gone?” Penelope asked me and I nodded.“Yes, now we can walk around as freely as we please.” I informed her and the little girl pouted.“What's wrong? I thought you would be happy?” I inquired.“I wanted to meet them,” she informed me and I offered her a small smile “How about next time?” I suggested and Penelope stared at me skeptically.“For now why don't we go into town and get somethings?” I suggested and Penelope's eyes sparkled to life.“Like a market?” Carter asked with a small frown on his face.“I don't think daddy would like that,” he informed me. I stared at him for a moment, marvelling at just how much he was like Mr. Ford and I wasn't just talking about physical features.Carter was so young yet I could see he somehow understood the responsibilities which lay ahead of him. I glimpsed a strictness in him which was similar to Mr. Ford's.“ Not exactly a market. More like a mall,” I told him and he looked appeased.“What's a mall?” Penelope a
