Chapter 15
“She threw hot water on Miss Daisy,” One of the housekeepers responded. The three of them were all around Daisy, fuzzing and asking if she was okay.
“I did no such thing. What are you talking about?” I demanded, almost angry while I was writhing in pain.
“Why are you lying?” The cook glared hard at me. “I saw you and I’m sure everyone in the kitchen saw you throwing the teapot on her knowing fully well there was hot water inside it,”
“Don’t try denying it.”
“Nibbles, are they speaking the truth?” Darius asked. I turned to him and shrugged.
“I don’t expect you to believe me but I didn’t do it. I’m not some rabid wolf who would go around hurting people,” I answered.
“It’s fine, I’m sure she’s fine,”
Charles eyes were focused on my leg and when he looked up, our eyes
our eyes met. “It’s fir
“I didn’t do it,
I insisted.
“Four people saw you and you want to tell me the four of them conspired against you about something like this,” Darius added. “Why would you hurt someone like Daisy? She’s taking the time out to help you take care of your daughter,”
“I didn’t ask for her help or your help. I’m capable of caring for my own child,” I yelled,
No one told me anything before a nanny was hired for my child I’ve been taking care of her alone for five years. I’m so sure I have all the time in the world to take care of her. Ididn’t need anyone’s help before and I’m so sure I still don’t need any help.
“I’m so sure she didn’t mean to hurt me. I already told her about going out with Reina today and although she didn’t like the idea, I don’t think it’s enough reason for her to hurt me,” Daisy replied with a shaky voice and tears in her eyes.
eina.” Darius asked.
“Is that it? Did you hurt her because of Reina,”
“Why are you asking me that when you already judged me without a trial? You don’t even trust me enough not to d something like that and yet, you want to hear my answer. Fine! I did it! I hurt her on purpose,”
Darius stared at me for a few seconds, shook his head, and said “This is below you. You shouldn’t have done somethin
that,”
His words hurt more than his distrust in me. I wished he’d believed me when I said I didn’t do it. I found it hard to believ that Darius would stand there and believe that I’d hurt Daisy because of Reina.
“Are you okay?” Charles asked as soon as the tension in the kitchen reduced. I nodded, lying through my gritted teeth. I wasn’t okay.
There was no way I was okay with the burning sensation in my leg.
“Someone should get me a doctor from the hospital,” Darius demanded. For a moment, I thought he wanted the doctor to check up on me and maybe he cared a little bit but my hope was soon dashed when he said, “Come here, Daisy, let’s get the doctor to check up on you,”
I nearly scoffed if not for the pain that made me hissed instead. The three women along with Dasiy all walked out of the kitchen while giving me a stink eye. I laughed bitterly, not believing all that was happening.

Chapter 15
“Let’s get you to the pack’s clinic,” Charles suggested. I shook my head and slightly pushed him off instead.
“You should go after your sister,
“I’m sure Darius is already doing that. You’re in pain. You need to see a doctor.”
“I’ll be fine, you shouldn’t bother about that,

“Not with the way your feet are burning. I swear I can smell it right here and even though it smells delicious, you still need to get it treated,”
I raised an eyebrow, taking in his words thoroughly to see if he was serious. “I was kidding. I just wanted to get you to agree to see the doctor.”
I nodded and forced a smile as well. “I’ll get someone to drop Reina off at
at your mom’s”
Charles was able to change my mind and get me to see the doctor. We got the pack’s clinic. He dragged me into a doctor’s office immediately. The doctor looked familiar at first but on a second look, I realized she was, Haley, an
old friend of Charles from high school. Charles was my only friend but I wasn’t his only friend. He had them lots and plenty.
“I’m surprised you didn’t recognize me immediately. We used to have lunch together almost every day” She explained as she applied some ointments on my leg.
“I’m sorry it took a while,”
“Nah! It’s fine. I’ll be more shocked than surprised if you recognize me at all. You were always wrapped up in your thoughts of Darius anyway. Remember the one time you wouldn’t stop talking about how your eyes met and he wouldn’t look away.” Charles cleared his throat and I’m sure Haley got the point because she quickly apologized.
“It’s fine, you don’t have to apologize about that.”
“Alright, cool. I’m guessing we’ll catch up more at our movie night tomorrow. Did you invite her, Charles?” I looked between her and Charles in confusion.
“What movie night?” I asked.
“We usually just get together and watch a movie. It’s nothing special,”
She threw a hard glare his way. “You’re welcome to come with Reina. We’ll choose a kid-friendly movie she’ll
Getting involved with anyone in the pack was not part of my plan while I stayed in this pack. I’m already conte finding a way to get to stay in another park instead.
“I don’t think I’ll be…
“There, you’re good to go. You’re a wolf so I’m sure it’ll heal within a few hours and I’ll see you tomorrow,” Haley interrupted, concluded my treatment, and also sealed my fate of seeing them tomorrow again at the same time. I sm little at her bravery. She was c*cky and I kind of dug that..
“Thanks, Haley,” I said.
She waved me off and walked out of the room.
“You should heal in a few hours. Reina is already at your mom’s house. Where do you
you want to go? Your mom’s or Darius’
home?”
“I think I’ll go to my mom’s place for now,”
He nodded.

Chapter 15
“Why are you being nice to me? I just hurt your sister,” I asked as soon as we stepped out of the hospital.
“Because I know you well enough, Angela,”

“We practically grew up together. We spent all our days in high school together, Angela and you think I wouldn’t know if you did it or not. I know you didn’t do it. Darius might not know that because he barely knows you. You guys dated for a few weeks before he broke your heart and left and now, he’s forcing his way back into your life again and still acting like a prude.”
“What are you saying, Charles?” I cried. His words were going beyond us growing up together. He was taking us back to five years ago and I hated that memory.
“I’m saying that I’m sorry that I left you alone after you got together with Darius five years ago but this time, I’m not going to sit back and watch him destroy you like he did before,”
He turned to me and tucked a stray hair behind my
my car
“I’m fighting for you this time, Angela. You’re not alone anymore
