Chapter 177: Caffeine Crash

Moana

The rest of the weekend went by too quickly. I spent all of Sunday with Ella to make up for not seeing her on Saturday, and soon enough Monday morning came around.

However, I noticed something over the weekend as well as the first few days of the week: Mina’s sleepiness wasn’t getting any better. In fact, it only seemed to be getting worse, and it was making me nervous. At first, I thought it was just the pregnancy, but now I was beginning to think otherwise.

And in fact, there was something especially odd about it.

Mina seemed to get better at nighttime. She still had very little energy during that time, but it was an obvious improvement nonetheless. This slightly heightened energy would go on through the night and the early morning, but then she would get extremely sleepy again whenever I drank my morning coffee.

By Thursday, I was beginning to get suspicious. I decided then to try an experiment; on Thursday morning, I decided not to drink my morning coffee.

“Good morning,” Selina said as I walked into the kitchen. I was already dressed for work, and Ella was already sitting at the kitchen counter and eating her toast and eggs before school. I kissed Ella on top of her head and smiled at Selina, who had just placed a plate of breakfast down for me.

But when I sat down, I saw that my coffee was there. I subtly pushed it away and ate my breakfast without mentioning it, but Selina noticed that the cup was untouched as I finished eating and stood up to get ready to leave.

“You didn’t like your coffee?” she asked, looking a bit confused. “I thought you loved your morning coffee.”

“I do,” I replied with a nonchalant smile. “I’m just not in the mood for coffee this morning, I’m afraid.”

Selina looked at me for a moment, then nodded and poured the cup of coffee down the sink. I felt a bit bad for wasting it, but I needed to find out if the coffee had something to do with my wolf’s sleepiness. Maybe the caffeine was interacting strangely with my body due to the pregnancy.

Edrick was waiting for Ella and I in the foyer when we walked out. He smiled at us as the elevator doors opened, but what he said in the elevator baffled me.

“I heard you didn’t want your coffee this morning.”

I couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and look at Edrick with a bit of confusion. Why did it seem as though both Selina and Edrick were overly concerned about whether I drank my coffee or not that morning?

“Yeah,” I said as the elevator doors opened to the lobby and we stepped out. “I didn’t want the caffeine this morning.”

“Hmm.” Edrick almost seemed a little bit put off by that, which I thought was strange. However, he didn’t bring it up again, and instead had pleasant conversation with Ella and myself as we walked to school. By the time we arrived and waved goodbye, I had almost forgotten about it.

However, as I taught my classes that day, I noticed that Mina’s energy was indeed higher than it had been recently. In fact, by the time school was out and I walked out of the school with Ella, Mina’s energy seemed almost normal again.

Maybe it was just the caffeine interacting poorly with my body because of the pregnancy.

“Hi, daddy!” Ella said as we walked up to meet him. Edrick grinned and crouched down to let Ella climb up onto his shoulders. As he stood once more, however, I noticed something.

He was holding a smoothie in his hand.

“Here,” he said with a smile, holding the smoothie out for me. “I got you something. It’s hot out, so I thought this might be refreshing for you after working all day.”

“Oh,” I replied, taking the cold smoothie cup out of his hand. “Thank you.”

“Daddy, did you get a smoothie for me?” Ella asked.

Edrick sighed and shook his head. “I’m sorry, Princess,” he replied. “I forgot. We’ll pass the smoothie cart on the way back, so I’ll get you one. Okay?”

“She can have mine,” I said, holding the cup back out. “I don’t really need it.”

Suddenly, Edrick’s face changed in an unexpected way, and his eyes widened. “No!” he said, almost shouting.

My own eyes went wide. I was taken aback by Edrick’s insistence, and stared up at him confusedly. “Well… Why not?” I asked, looking down at the large smoothie cup. “I don’t mind sharing. Heck, all three of us could share. It’s a big cup.”

Edrick went silent for a moment. He kept opening and closing his mouth, as though he was trying to come up with something to say. Seeing him like this made me nervous, and I couldn’t help but think back on Edrick’s strange obsession with my coffee that morning. I looked back down at the smoothie cup then and started to have an odd feeling in the pit of my stomach.

“I just… don’t think that Ella would like that flavor,” Edrick said with a smile. “Besides, it’s yours. If you can’t finish it, that’s okay.”

With that, Edrick began to walk with Ella on his shoulders. I watched after him for a moment before catching up, but I couldn’t stop wondering what his deal was today. But the longer I thought about it, the more I figured that he was just having an off day; maybe he still felt bad about what he had said on Friday night and was trying to make it up to me. And besides, it was incredibly hot out that day, and the smoothie did look cold and refreshing. I decided to take a sip, and found it surprisingly delicious. In fact, I had drunk half of it by the time we stopped at the smoothie cart to get her her own, and I had finished it by the time we got home.

As we took the elevator back up to the penthouse, Edrick noticed my empty cup and almost seemed to relax a little bit.

And within the hour, I was pretty certain that I realized why; something was in that smoothie, because Mina’s energy suddenly dropped again.

Had Edrick been putting something in my coffee, and when he noticed that I didn’t want my coffee that morning, he put something in that smoothie? But why would he do that? Selina had made a comment about my coffee that morning, too; was she in on it as well?

After dinner, I quickly excused myself to my room to think. I paced for a while before suddenly freezing, my eyes widening.

Olivia.

I had nearly forgotten about my conversation with her. I had come to the conclusion that she was being paid to spread lies about Edrick, but now…

What if she had the same experience as I did?

If Olivia had similar symptoms while she was living with Edrick, then it would be extremely concerning. I needed to know if someone was trying to drug me, and why they would do that; but I couldn’t just walk up to Edrick or Selina and ask.

As I thought back on my conversation with Olivia, I remembered that she had given me her business card — and when I quickly rifled through my purse, it was still there.

I held the business card in my shaky hand, wondering if I should call her.

And the very next morning, I also didn’t expect to wake up and find my One-Night-Stand hookup was my ex-boyfriend's Alpha billionaire BOSS…. How things are going to turn out after I accidentally became his 5-year-old daughter's live-in nanny? ____________   How did this happen?

If I had known, I wouldn’t have applied….” “It’s alright. I knew it was you when I hired you. I did it on purpose.” I scrunched my eyebrows together. “What do you mean?”      

Chapter 1 Betrayal

Moana It was a hot summer evening, and I had just spent the entire day job hunting. Finding work as a human in a world dominated by werewolves, especially in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the city, wasn’t easy. Even though I had a degree in Early Childhood Education, no schools wanted to hire me because I was a human. Werewolf parents were outraged at the thought of a “worthless human” teaching their children, as if my skills, drive, and education meant nothing. So, I was now limited to service jobs, which were also unfortunately hard to come by because the job market was oversaturated with other humans who were also desperate to pay their bills. If I didn’t find a job soon, though, I would lose my apartment. My landlord had already given me a thirty-day notice. If I didn’t pay my rent -- and the three months of rent that I already owed -- by the end of the thirty days, he was going to evict me. At least I still had my boyfriend, Sam. He wasn’t extraordinarily well-off either despite being a werewolf, but at least he had a job and could pay his rent. We had been together for three years now and had known each other for five, so maybe it was time to talk about moving in together soon. As I was walking down the packed city street, a thin layer of sweat caked to my forehead from spending the day running from business to business as I tried to find someone who would hire me, I started to realize how hungry I was. I couldn’t afford to eat out, but the delicious smells coming from the restaurants I passed began to make my mouth water. One particular restaurant across the street caught my eye, but not because of the smell of food. I stopped in my tracks, my eyes widening. Inside the restaurant, right in the window, was Sam. He wasn’t alone; he was with another woman, and they were… Kissing. “You’ve gotta be fucking kidding me,” I said out loud, causing a few passersby to turn their heads and give me weird looks. Sam had told me that he was busy recently, that he had a lot of work… Was this what he was really doing? Cheating on me with some other woman? The fury bubbled up inside of me, and without thinking, I stormed across the street and toward the restaurant window. My stomach turned as I came closer. This woman was gorgeous -- basically a supermodel -- and that didn’t make me feel any better about the situation. Not only was Sam cheating on me, but he was cheating on me with someone who looked like that. She was thin, blonde, and tan with long legs, wearing a skimpy evening dress and high heels. I do get compliments on my face, body and long red hair, but in that moment, I felt so worthless as I stood there looking at Sam and his mistress. How could he do this to me? I stopped in front of the window. Neither of them even saw me standing there, they were so absorbed in their makeout session. So, I banged on the window. Sam and the mystery woman both jumped, their eyes widening when they saw me. I stormed over to the entrance and ran inside, ignoring the strange looks from the restaurant staff and customers, and ran up to where Sam and the woman sat. “How fucking dare you?!” I yelled, my hands curled up into fists at my sides. “We’ve been together for three years and you’re cheating on me?” The woman looked back and forth between Sam and I with an embarrassed expression on her face as the restaurant fell silent, but Sam’s face showed only anger and resentment. Without saying a word, Sam stood and grabbed me by the arm, dragging me out of the restaurant. He was too strong for me to resist, so I stumbled after him and back out into the busy street with tears streaming down my cheeks. “You’re making a fool of both of us, Moana,” he growled once we were outside. “I’m making a fool of us?” I replied, my voice still raised. “You’re making out with another woman in public!” Sam merely rolled his eyes and pulled me further away from the door. His werewolf eyes burned a bright orange color and his face was wrought with anger. “Control your temper,” he whispered, pushing me roughly up against the side of the building. “You’re just an ordinary human. You should feel lucky that I even entertained you for three years.” His words stung, and my vision became clouded with tears. “Why her?” I croaked as a sob caught in my throat. Sam, the man who had told me he loved me for three years, merely chuckled. “You’re useless to me,” he snarled. “She’s a Beta. Her family is incredibly wealthy and powerful, and thanks to her, I’ll be starting a new job at WereCorp next week.” WereCorp was the biggest corporation in the world. Not only did they control all of the banks, but they also developed the newest and most widely-used cryptocurrency of the 21st Century: WCoin. I never used it -- humans weren’t allowed to -- but it made a lot of werewolves extremely rich when it first came out. He continued, “What have you done for me aside from mooching off of me because you can’t even get a job of your own? You’re nothing compared to her. How dare you even question my decision to move on.” There was nothing else I could say; nothing else that could come to mind aside from getting the hell away from him. I shoved Sam away finally, pushing myself away from the wall. “Fuck you,” I growled, my rage taking over as I raised my hand and slapped him hard across the face. Passersby were looking at us now, but I didn’t care. Without another word, I turned on my heel and stormed away without looking back. As I walked numbly down the street and wiped the tears from my eyes, I thought about what Sam was like when we first met; he had been nothing more than a bullied Omega in high school with no confidence, no prospects, and no friends. I had helped him gain confidence with my love and support, and this was how he repaid me? By leaving me for some blonde, all for a job at WereCorp? Nothing angered me more than knowing that my boyfriend of three years, and best friend for five years, had left me so easily over money and power. I was still fuming when I stepped out into the intersection, too numb to look properly before crossing. Just then, I heard the sound of a car honking and looked up to see a luxury car driving straight for me. Cursing to myself, I stumbled backwards and fell into a puddle just before the car hit me. The car came to a screeching halt next to me, which was surprising since I assumed that they would just drive away after nearly hitting me, but what surprised me even more was the person who sat inside the car when the window rolled down. Edrick Morgan, CEO of WereCorp. Edrick was known not only for being the youngest CEO in the history of the company and the heir to the largest fortune in the world, but also for his stunning appearance -- and although I was incredibly hurt and angry about everything that had happened today, I couldn’t help but notice his strong jawline, his muscular shoulders and arms, and his incredibly handsome face. I opened my mouth to say something about how he had nearly hit me, but before I could, he looked me up and down and tossed a wad of cash out the window, driving away with a rev of his engine. Edrick Morgan, the CEO of WereCorp, had nearly hit me with his car… and tossed me money like I was some beggar. All werewolves really were arrogant assholes. I threw the cash on the ground and stood, cursing under my breath as I realized how soaked and dirty my clothes were. I’d have to go home and see if I could scrounge up some change to take them to the laundromat so I could continue job hunting tomorrow, but admittedly for now I just wanted to drown my sorrows. I walked for a few blocks, finally spotting a bar that seemed nice and quiet.Taking a deep breath and smoothing down my stained shirt, I walked through the doors and approached the bouncer. The bouncer narrowed his eyes at me and looked me up and down, taking in my dirty appearance sniffing the air in front of me. “No humans allowed without a member escort,” he growled, folding his arms. I frowned. “Member?” I asked. “I’m a paying customer. Just let me buy a drink.” The bouncer shook his head and began to usher me toward the door like I was some sort of nuisance. “Is this even legal?” I said, raising my voice. “You can’t just discriminate against humans like this! Is my money worthless here just because of--” “She’s with me,” a stern and clear voice suddenly said from behind. The bouncer and I both looked up and turned to see a man in a suit standing on the stairs. Edrick Morgan.
