The Alpha’s Nanny (Lori and Gabriel) novel Chapter 156

THE ALPHA’S NANNY.

Chapter 156

“I know the scent of nephilims. I know it very well. As you must already know now, there’s not much of you around, mostly because your kind is hunted for your blood. It’s one of the reasons I kept quiet about my heritage too.”

Sabine sighed.

“I’m suspecting something triggered your powers. Something deep. But whatever it is, this whole situation is going to get extremely bad for you. You will become volatile, you will become very angry and worst of all you will be a slave to your powers if you don’t learn how to control it.”

“This newfound power is not a blessing Loretta. It is a curse.”

“And if you want to survive you have to learn how to control it or risk dying and being hunted for it.”

For some reason, Lori suspected Sabine was saying the truth. There was no deceit in her eyes, no lies… only what seemed to be pity.

Pity for her. Lori’s breath hitched, suddenly remembering all the wolves she had killed and how she didn’t even have a single memory of how she killed

some of them.

Was that it? Was that why she couldn’t remember some parts of it?

Because her powers had taken over?

“There’s a way to prevent that. Like I said, you will have to control your powers.”

“And how will I do that?”

Sabine sighed. She had not revealed this information to anyone else before. Not even Vara. She had not breathed a word of it to another soul and now she

was sharing it, to the mate of her enemy.

Even she herself couldn’t believe it as the words came out of her mouth.

“There’s a secret society of Nephilim… very exclusive, very hard to get in or find. But I know a nephilim who lives here. She knew my grandmother… and me too. She taught me a few tricks… she can teach you much more.”

But why?

It just didn’t make sense that Sabine would be helping her.

“Why? Why are you helping me?”

Sabine chuckled.

“Helping you?! Oh you misunderstand… all this… everything I’m doing… it is purely for my own benefit.”

Lori narrowed her eyes at her.

Sabine continued.

“Do you want me to tell you who she is? Do you want her help?”

Lori shifted slightly, uncomfortable and nervous.

“And how are you so sure she’d be willing to help me?”

Sabine shrugged.

“That’s what she does. It’s her job to help other nephilims…”

“Her name is Astra Barlow.”

“And how do I find her?”

Lori asked and Sabine raised a finger.

“Not so fast. There’s still one other thing I have to tell you.”

“What?!”

Lori retorted and Sabine smirked.

“If you ever want to see Jack again… you must stay away from Gabriel.”

There was a deafening silence following after Sabine’s statement. Lori froze right in the spot.

Was she joking?!

“What do you mean?”

Lori asked quietly.

“It is my only condition Lori. The only condition I have for you.”

“He’s my mate… how can you ask that of me?!”

“Oh I can and I will! You can reject him for all I care but the moment I see you with him, you can go back to remembering little Jack as good as dead.”

Lori lunged for Sabine and grabbed her throat, pinning her to the ground. Sabine thrashed beneath her but Lori’s grip only got tighter.

Tighter and tighter… till she could see the light slowly disappearing from Sabine’s eyes and she panicked and broke out of her reverie.

Sabine crawled away from her, one hand caressing her bruised neck.

“See… see what I’m talking about!”

“You’re out of control!”

“Where’s my son?!”

Lori demanded and Sabine closed her eyes.

Chapter 156

Fight it. Fight the mind control by avoiding direct eye contact. It wasn’t a guaranteed way to avoid it but it would help.

She opened her eyes and averted her gaze, finally feeling some semblance of normalcy as she didn’t feel Lori’s hold on her again.

“He’s safe with me. Only if you do as I say!”

Sabine demanded and she finally pulled herself to her feet.

“Lori… don’t make this hard on yourself… I’m doing you a favor. I’m helping you…”

Lori shook her head.

“You’re not helping me…. You’re blackmailing me. You’re taking advantage of me…”

Sabine shrugged.

“Think of it however you want to think of it. But, if you care about your biological son, who may or may not be in danger right now, then you’d do as I say.”

“And what? What do you want me to do?!”

“What I told you to do! Reject Gabriel Caine as your mate.”

Lori shook her head.

“No. No. That’s not what you said before… you told me to stay away from him.”

Sabine scoffed.

“Well! Your little fit of anger just made me change my mind. Now I want you to reject him.”

“Reject him or forget you even have a son.”
