A Broken Contract (Alpha's Secret Regret) novel Chapter 48

His eyes remained on the kid.

“You should be more submissive and agreeable now, don't you think?"

Then his eyes lifted and fixed on mine as he added,

"Be careful how you address my alpha around me OR anyone else!”

When he reached out to touch Alex’s cheek affectionately, I pulled my son away from his touch.

He gave a gentle smile.

“You’ve had a busy day. I’ll give him that excuse on your behalf. Let's say you couldn’t go through it yet because of work. I'll pick it up in the morning!”

He started to leave as he waved at Alex and said with a sweet voice,

"See you soon, young wolf."

My son waved back hesitantly, eyeing me to see if I approved.

Within minutes, the house was empty except for us, the guard, and Alex’s new nanny.

I had to get ready to go see Avery, so I called a babysitter despite the fact that the nanny was still on duty.

If I would put my child under the care of a stranger, let it be someone I paid rather than the fancy half-wolf. This one was hired to care for Alex as a mother if I don't "behave." For that reason, I hated her.

“Is there anything you need me to do for him, Miss James,” the nanny asked.

I ignored her.

Taking Alex into his room, I locked the door and changed his clothes and freshened him up for the evening.

“Maya is on her way to stay with you. Mommy has to see Uncle Avery this evening,” I told him.

“Maya and Janice will watch me?” he asked.
