Chapter 57
Angela’s POV
Darius claws protruded as though he was about to shift right there at that particular time. I took a deep breath ready for whatever was to come. Zack removed his hand from my shoulder as he looked between me and Darius.
“Alpha Darius,” Zack rose to his feet and walked up to him.
Darius glared at him, scrutinizing him with a murderous look on his face.
I didn’t have a choice other than to stand.
He groaned. “Sorry to interrupt,”
“No, you didn’t interrupt anything, Alpha. Is there any reason why you’re here?” Zack asked.
Darius turned to look at me. He had his usual “you’ve fucked up again” look on his face. I know he made me promise not to let another man touch me but that promise was fucking impossible..
Without giving Zack an answer, Darius barged out of the office. Zack looked back at me with confusion and smiled weakly.
“Sorry for the interruption,”
I frowned. It was after Darius left that I realized I’d opened up to Zack about my darkest secret. I hated myself so much because I told him. I wanted to die after it did and decided to keep it my secret for many reasons,
“I think I should go,”
“You can stay. We can talk about something else, or maybe go out and get some meal,”
I waved him off. I wasn’t really ready to do all that. “No, thank you,”
“See you next… Before he could complete his sentence, I was out of the door.
Tears polled in my eyes but I forced myself not to cry and quickly walked away from his office. I was such an idiot to have told him that. What if he told someone what happened to me? Would they mock me? Would they pity me?
I didn’t know which one I would prefer, mockery or pity. Mockery made me feel disrespected, while pity was worst, it made me feel like trash.
As I got closer to the house, a figure came out from behind the building and stood in my line of vision. I stopped walking. It was Darius. Talk about the devil and he appears, right? Well, I didn’t need to talk about this devil before he appeared.
“You hate my touch but I guess you love his touch,” he said, clenching his jaw. His voice was stoic and unexpressive..
I didn’t know what came over me but I moved closer to him and grabbed hold of his shirt.
“Not now, please, not now,”
I was so close to tears that I knew even if I wanted to argue with Darius, I wouldn’t be able to make out a short sentence before I started crying-
He held my shoulder and stared at me. His eyes bore into mine as if he was searching for something. His gaze was so enthralling and enchanting. I sucked in a deep breath and for a minute, I thought I found peace. I could see his wolf through his eyes and it was beautiful
“Til kill him,” he suddenly announced.
I pulled myself out of his captivating gaze as he also pulled away from me, ready to walk away.
“He didn’t do anything wrong,” I said immediately his threat made sense to me. He was going to kill Zack.
He glared at me. “Trying to protect him too, right?”
“No, Darius. No! He didn’t do anything to me,”
“That’s because he was trying to comfort me, dumbass,” I spat.
“Don’t say that, Nibbles. I haven’t even said anything or touched you, I stared up at him and saw the confusion in his eyes. His eyebrows squished together and he ran his hand through his hair.
“I’m not talking about now. Why did you have to make me an artist’s workshop? I told
He interrupted me. “Because you loved painting and I wanted to give you something you love. That was why I moved you out of the Alpha’s mansion. You and Daisy have this never–ending feud and I wanted it to stop. I wanted you to stop hurting. I hated myself for dragging you here and making you unhappy. I wanted to give you something you’ll love. Something that’ll make you wanna stay here” he paused. “With me,”
“Why? Is it because of what happened between us five years ago?”
He whispered. It was just us in the world right now. We didn’t need to shout, yell, or scream at each other because I could hear his unspoken words loud and clear and I was sure he could hear mine.
