Angela’s POV
“Why are you doing this?” Halle asked through gritted teeth. She successfully gained the attention of everyone after that. Brit walked closer to me with her eyebrow raised. She probably wanted to know if I needed her as a backup again. I shook my head.
“We both know the answer to that, Halle,”
I folded my hand against my chest. I waited for her to do the needful which was as simple as ‘getting the hell out of the house‘. I should’ve told someone about what I heard from her but I was protecting her without knowing why and that protection caused harm to Darius.
Halle turned to the other doctor who came with her. “I’m really sorry I won’t be able to stay here. I have a patient waiting for me at the hospital. I’ll take over your shift for the next three days. Will that be enough?”
The other doctor accepted and gave her the go–ahead.
Right before she left the house, she whispered, “Can we talk outside? Please,”
Reluctantly, I followed her out of the house. We were about a few feet away when I stopped her. I realized she was taking the conversation somewhere else and I didn’t trust her enough to go with her.
“I have nothing to say to you, Halle,”
“We can’t talk here. It’s too dangerous,”
I scoffed. “You’re the one who’s too dangerous Halle. You told me about the Resistance or whatever you guys are called and a few days. later, the warehouse was burnt to the ground and Darius almost died because of an explosion,”
She grabbed my hand all of a sudden. “I swear to you Angela, I’m not a part of the Resistance, and neither do I know anything about them,”
I shrugged. “I don’t believe you because I wasn’t expecting you to come out right with me and tell me you’re one of them,”
She appeared panicked. “Can you lower your voice? If they hear us, it’ll be too dangerous for you or people close to you,”
I took a step back. “Are you threatening me? Is that a threat?”
She shook her head. “No! I’m not threatening you and neither was I planning on hurting Darius. What you just did might get me in trouble and make Darius and his men think I have something to do with the attack,”
She sounded scared and maybe sad but I refused to read her like an open book and just look away from her.
“I’m done trying to have a conversation with you, Halle. I’m keeping quiet and not calling you out for two reasons, because of the friendship we once had and because I have no solid evidence against you but remember this, the moment I confirm that you’re a part of the resistance, I’ll be sure to hold tightly to the chain that’ll be used to drag you out,”
“Angela…”
I raised a finger, stopping her from talking. “I won’t sit back and watch you guys hurt me or my child before I do something about it,”
“I would never hurt you or Reina. Darius is not who he says he is. He’s a dangerous man but I don’t support the movement,”
“ENOUGH!” I cautioned. I was done listening to her saying all sorts of bullshit that I wasn’t interested in.
“When you’re ready to talk or listen, you know where to find me, Angela,”
I had to bite down on my tongue before I could tell her to go to hell. She held my hand for a few seconds before she turned and walked away from there.
“Everything okay?” Brit asked as I walked back into the house.

Chapter 63
“Of course,”
“That was tense,”
“What was?” I feigned ignorance.
She gave me the stink eye. “Didn’t you guys used to be good friends?”
“We used to be but it’s been five years, I’ve had a child and things have changed,”
“Or maybe it’s because you turned your back on everybody over a man who didn’t blink twice because he left you. The same man you’re still simping over. He’s in there dying physically and you’re out here dying psychologically. Is he even worth it?”
I took a deep breath. “Brit! I’m not ready for that conversation, alright? I know I f*cked up and I’m sorry but I can’t undo the past. Life has dealt me a tough hand and I’ve paid one way or another for what I did. For now, let’s focus on the present,”
She bit down on my bottom lip. She wanted to say something, maybe drag out the matter but she stopped. Brit gave me a fake smile. “You should starve to death. I’ll tell Mom you ate,”
I could still sense the bad blood between us. She left after that without even looking back. I was being a stupid sister the same way I acted irresponsibly five years ago.
If wishes were horses, I’d love to go back and undo the things I’d done. For the first time since I left, I regretted leaving.
It took a day for Darius to finally open his eyes. Thanks to his Alpha blood and his wolf, he was healing as quickly as possible. I was sitting on the couch, staring at the silent TV in the room. My gaze was fixed on the screen but I was so deep in thought that I didn’t even realize Darius was awake.
“You’re awake,” I declared. I sat up on the couch as I took in the sight of him.
Tears fell from my face as the hope that I’d lost became restored. I didn’t believe he could open his eyes so soon. I had thought he would be in that comatose state for a long time.
“Come here,” he whispered. His words were like magic. My legs stood on its own and within a second, I was beside him on the bed. “Let me hold you, baby,” I bent so we could hug. His body had regained its warmth and it was so good to feel his touch on my skin. It was a sign that he was truly alive.
“I was afraid you
