The Alpha’s Nanny (Lori and Gabriel) novel Chapter 92

Chapter 92

Gabriel froze.

“What? What do you mean?”

The old man shrugged.

“It’s in our laws and in pretty much most werewolf pack laws. An illegitimate child cannot be heir.”

“Emilia would never be your heir.”

Gabriel’s clenched his jaw.

“She’s my daughter. I don’t give fuck about pack laws.”

“Oh you will. You have to. She cannot be your heir and it’s as simple as that. If her mother had at least had some sort of tangible reputation it may have

been possible, a quick wedding would have been arranged and she would be your Luna.”

“But no. You chose to settle for a nobody. To make matters even more complicated, she’s dead now.”

“Why? Why are you even bringing this up? I don’t care.”

“Emilia’s my daughter. And I’ll do anything to protect her. In fact I don’t really care if she cannot legally be my heir, I’d rather she has a normal life than being alpha and fighting off a thousand enemies.”

His grandfather scoffed.

“Oh you might not care about that, but there is one thing you need to care about

“What’s that?”

“Marriage Gabriel.”

The old man paced up and down the room.

The peculiar smell he could perceive, it was strong in the nursery, almost as if the person had been there countless times.

He knew his grandson was lying to him because his heartbeat skipped when he lid.

Sometimes people seemed to forget that because he was old didn’t mean he was weak. He had spent years honing his abilities. Abilities that took years to develop. The kind of ability that was learnt through skill.

Gabriel was hiding something from him.

“You have been alpha for years. And I’m sure all those years you must have tried finding your mate.”

“You should know a good percentage of werewolves never get to meet their mate and they go on with their lives just fine.”

“A beneficial marriage alliance will do you a lot of good.”

Gabriel scoffed.

Chapter 92

“I’m not looking for a marriage alliance. And I frankly do not need one, the packs doing very well without that.”

His grandfather nodded.

“Fair point. But what about your daughter?”

He pointed to the baby in the crib.

“Would you deny her the chance of having a mother?”

He looked at Gabriel’s reaction closely and he didn’t even flinch.

Interesting.

Either he didn’t care about Emilia having a mother or someone else had already lled that role.

Perhaps the person was the one whose scent filled the room.

“Besides, you say you don’t need a marriage alliance now but what about the future?”

“You and I know just how unstable the werewolf world is. One day you can have all and the next day it can be snatched from you with the world you built

crumbling at your feet.”

Gabriel sighed.

He would pretend to agree,

if that would get the old man off his back.

“Okay. I will consider a marriage alliance. If that is what pleases you.”

Too easy. The Gabriel he knew would have argued with him. He was stubborn.

Did having a child change him or was he just agreeing with him so he could leave faster?

His grandfather mused.

“I actually already have a candidate in mind.”

Gabriel turned sharply, his eyes alert.

“And who is that?”

“You remember Kate?”

“Kate?”

Gabriel repeated.

“Yes! Kate. You dated her I think. The two of you have been friends for years, I hard she’s back in Denver. The job overseas didn’t seem to work out too

well.”

Kate?!

The only Kate he remembered was Kate Caddel. An old friend. They had dated briefly, before she traveled overseas. They didn’t keep in touch that much,

they were both very busy people.

But Kate’s father on the other hand. Her father was an alpha. Alpha of the Dark Moon pack. The second largest pack in the Americas.

The power that man wielded, he was fearsome, no one dared go against him. To go against one member of the Dark Moon pack was to go against all.

Gabriel never had any problems with the man because of their mutual connection

“I didn’t know she was in town.”

“Well, she is! I think you should be happy that life gave you a second chance.”

“You should meet up with her. In the meantime I’ll try and set up a meeting with her father and…”

“Grandfather! No.”

“Don’t do that.”

He warned.

“I don’t need you doing anything. I can handle it all myself.”

His grandfather scoffed and started walking out of the room.

“Okay then Alpha.”

“I will be expecting a feedback.”

“Now, can we go get dinner now? I’m starving.”

After his grandfather left, Gabriel felt more relief than he had ever felt in days. I was like a wave of tension had been released from his body.

He decided to call Elliot to let him know that he could bring Lori back home.

His call went unanswered for two times before Elliot finally picked his call.

“Gabriel!!”

Elliot drawled.

Gabriel rolled his eyes. The fool sounded drunk.

“Where are you? You can head back home now.”

“Is Lori with you?”

He added.

There was loud background noise, it sounded like they were in a har.

“Yes! She’s with me.”

He finally answered.

“Where are you two?! Come home now!”

“Uhm at a bar.”

A fucking bar?! Really! Of all the places he could have taken her?

“A bar? What the actual fuck Elliot?!”

He snarled into the phone, mildly alarming Sylvia who was cleaning up.

“Look that’s not the issue right now Gabriel! We seem to have gotten into a bit of problem..”

“I told you to keep her occupied. Not take her to the bar! What’s going on?”

Elliot started mumbling.

“I didn’t know! I didn’t know she was such a lightweight!”

“Anyways she’s fine.. she’s just drunk.”

“Get her and come home now!”

Gabriel ordered and there was a slight pause.

“Elliot?!”

“Yea… there’s just a tiny little problem…”
