Rebirth of the Alpha's Slave Mate (Samantha and Kade) novel Chapter 105

Chapter 105

And then it happened.

It started as hiccups. Ivy spit up a mouthful of her milk, and Elena gently lifted her over her shoulder, patting her little back and whispering soothing words.

Then the diarrhea began. It stank up the whole room like a dead animal, making Serena’s nose wrinkle with disgust, but she felt a surge of satisfaction nonetheless.

“Is she alright?” Serena asked, setting aside her coffee.

Elena checked Ivy’s diaper and grimaced. “I think she’s having some tummy troubles.”

“Well, you’d better deal with it, then.”

Elena shot Serena a withering look, but turned to leave so she could change Ivy’s diaper. That was when Ivy vomited for the first time-thick and foamy, tinged yellow and stinking of bile.

She vomited again and began to scream before Elena could even react.

“What have you done?!” Serena asked, jumping into action. She stormed over and wrenched Ivy away from

Elena’s arms.

Elena’s eyes were wide with shock as she went to take Ivy back. “I’m not sure! She must have picked up a stomach bug-”

“The milk you gave her must have been bad.” Serena twisted away from Elena’s reach.

“It wasn’t bad!” Elena protested, rushing over to the fridge and checking the expiration date on the bottle.

But then Elena fell silent. Her face blanched as she stared down at the date.

Little did she know that Serena had poured the milk into an old, empty bottle last night. One that was already long-expired.

Serena peered over Elena’s shoulder at the date and clicked her tongue disapprovingly. “Negligence. Just as I thought.”

“But-”

“What is going on in here?” Kade, having heard Ivy’s shrill cries, suddenly burst into the room. He took in the scene with confusion, then fear when he saw his daughter squirming and vomiting all over herself.

Behind him, Nellie, having come to give Debbie her morning medicine, entered and froze. Her face went pale the moment she saw Ivy, but Serena shot her a glare that silenced her before the words even came out.

Serena stepped away from Elena and pointed. “She gave Ivy expired milk and made her sick.”

Kade flushed and hurried over to Elena, snatching the bottle from her hands. While they were distracted, Serena deftly slipped the vial of antidote from her left sleeve and placed a drop on Ivy’s tongue. The baby squirmed and screamed, stinking of shit and vomit, but the antidote worked quickly. A moment later, Ivy began to calm down, and stopped gagging.

“Look! She’s better now,” Serena said, turning to Kade again and holding Ivy proudly for all to see. “I think she’s already soothed in my arms. She’s falling asleep.”
