The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 409

Chapter 409: HIS DEPARTURE

Early the next morning, Jasmine woke up in her bedroom.

She stretched as she gently got up and memories of the previous night came flooding in.

She smiled to herself.

He had been very gentle with her and had even indulged her in his love for astronomy.

It was a side of him she hadn’t expected or even seen coming.

Then she remembered how the baby had kicked at her stomach.

She rubbed her tummy and spoke to it. "You helped your father get close to us." Jasmine said. "Thank you."

There was no response kick.

"So it’s only your father’s voice you like to hear and not mine." Jasmine queried.

It was at this moment that she felt the kick.

Jasmine smiled.

Her child was very intelligent and already a mischievous little daddy’s girl.

There was a knock at her door.

"Come in." Jasmine ushered.

The nanny and Marie came in together.

"Good morning ma’am." The nanny greeted as soon as she stepped into the room.

Jasmine smiled back at her. "Good morning ma."

"Out of my way." Marie said as she pushed the nanny out of her way.

She sat down on the bed and held Jasmine’s hands.

"What are you doing here?" Jasmine asked confused. "You were here only a few days ago."

"Xaden sent me to you." Marie said a she mused over her hands and then she went down on Jasmine stomach.

She put both hands on it.

Jasmine flinched in reflex.

"I’m sorry." Jasmine apologized. "I’m not really comfortable with people touching my baby."

"That’s alright." Marie said ignoring her and still touching her stomach.

When Jasmine tried to put her hands again, Marie pushed it away.

She put her ear to the stomach and listened.

"Most new mother’s do things like that." Marie said. "Being overly protective of their babies. It’s normal."

"But why are you here?" Jasmine asked.

"You have such a sharp mouth." Marie rose a brow. "When I first met you, you were a scared little slave trying so hard to not walk in her father’s footsteps and please her master."

Jasmine blushed and went red.

"Now you have become the lady of the pack and you can do whatever you want to. Even talking back at me." Marie said. "For your information I am here because Xaden sent me to come see you. Apparently your baby is already kicking."

"Yes." Jasmine admitted, forgetting her hostility towards Marie. "Is anything wrong? Is she okay?"

Marie withdrew. "Your baby is fine. Just that it is growing rapidly fast. I’ll out you on a new dosage. Just to be sure we don’t have any future problems."

"Of course." Jasmine mumbled to herself.

Marie rose up to her feet and started handing out new medicine.

"You are to take these religiously." Marie said.

The nanny looked horrified. "What in the name of the goddess is that concoction?"

"It’s my spit and bath water and so what?" Marie replied nastily.

"I am here as her nanny and it is my job to take care of her." Nanny said. "I will not allow such a thing. The baby and the mother are supposed to be well take care of."

"That’s your business." Marie replied her hands on her waist. "I came here because Xaden asked me. So I don’t answer to you."

"And I am here because he employed me and saw me fit to be her nanny." Nanny said.

"That’s too bad." Marie said. "I like to eat Nanny’s for dinner."

Nanny scowled.

"There would be no need to be eating anyone." Jasmine intervened between both women. "I can take the medicine and you can be here nanny to take care of me."

Nanny humped and rolled her eyes but mumbled a. "Fine."

Marie folded her arms and mumbled a "fine." Too

Jasmine sighed in relief.

"Where is Xaden" Jasmine asked.

She hoped that she didn’t sound too curious.

"He is gathering his horses to leave." Marie said absent mindedly.

"To leave?!" Jasmine gasped. "To where?"

"And I thought you two were the perfect lovers?" Marie rose a mischievous brow.

"He didn’t tell me anything about traveling." Jasmine expressed.

"Since when he did start telling him anything about himself?" Marie snorted as she dropped a disgusting looking green liquid on the table.

Jasmine went to her window and saw that indeed horses were being gathered.

She started to fear.

He has made her feel safe, comfortable and at home and now he was leaving without even telling her?

"Did he say where?" Jasmine asked worried. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

"That was none of my business so of course not." Marie stated.

"You should have your breakfast." The nanny said as she opened the door for

Two maids bringing in full players of food.

"I’ll be back." Jasmine said as she hurried past the maids.

She didn’t know where the courage or confidence was coming from, but she wanted to see him before he left.

She ignored her nanny and Marie calling out to her.
