The Alpha’s Nanny (Lori and Gabriel) novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31

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 and he shrugged.

“I just want to know what was so urgent that has Gabriel flying you and the baby out of the country.”

“You should ask him when you see him then.”

Elliot chuckled as he ran a hand through his hair and relaxed in his seat.

“Yea, If you’ve not noticed by now, Gabriel doesn’t like me. Never did never will.”

“What did you do to him?”

“Why are you assuming it’s something I did?”

Elliot retorted and Lori shrugged.

“I don’t know, Gabriel doesn’t seem like the kind of person to hate someone for no reason.”

Elliot rolled his eyes.

“Ugh.”

He scoffed.

“I see he’s got to you too.”

“Got to me?”

Lori nodded.

“That sounds refreshing.”

“Shouldn’t you be working or in school or something?”

the asked and he nodded.

“Oh I am. My classes are ordine you see,”

“Out”

Lori said as she went back to what she was doing, aware that his eyes were still on her.

“What about you? You’re around my age, what college did you go to?”

He asked and Lori paused to think.

To be quite honest, she had not really thought about going back to college. She could now, she had the funds, it would be easy for her to do, but she wondered why it never really crossed her mind.

“I think I could. After this job maybe.”

“Or you can do it all online like me.

“Homm. That’s not a bad idea.”

After they both put the baby to sleep, they went back downstairs and Lori grabbed a tub of Ice–cream. It was peanut butter. Grace had started stocking up the fridge with icecream for Lori when she heard that it helped with breast milk production. Lori didn’t know if it was true or a lie, her milk supply had stayed the same but she did love having Ice–cream around so she wasn’t complaining.

“So, where were you born again?”

“I wasn’t. Two brothers. Adopted. Just like me.”

“What about you? How exactly are you related to Gabriel?”

“Ohh. That’s good. How’s your Dad?”

“My Dad died years ago. It’s just me and my Mum.”
