Chapter 70
Angela’s POV
“Shit!”
“F*ck”
“Goddamnit”
“F*ck”
I heard all sorts of profanities and curses spew out of the mouths of the two people entangled on the bed. They scrambled around to cover their bodies and they began picking up clothes from the floor while still on the bed.
All through, I held on to the door frame, my mouth slightly opened as I took in the shock of the decade. I’d been surprised all my life but never have I been double surprised. At some point, one shock seemed to overshadow the other. Was I more surprised at the fact that Charles was in the pack or more surprised that the two of them were together in bed?
Gently, I closed the door back and began walking away. A lot was going on through my head and at the same time, I didn’t want to think about anything.
“Wait, Angela,” I heard Halle’s voice behind me. I ignored her and kept on walking. Right before I could walk out of the door, someone pulled me by my arm. It was Halle.
“Please, Angela, please wait,”
I turned around to see the two of them. Halle was wearing a man’s shirt which could have belonged to Charles but Charles was wearing Halle’s top, there was no doubt about that because of the floral pattern and how it didn’t even cover half of his upper body. It was a different situation, I would’ve laughed but not when I just witnessed what I did.
“What are you doing here? You’re not supposed to be in this pack anymore. Did you even ever leave? Or were you here the entire time?”
I asked one–third of the questions running towards my head. I wasn’t there for Halle anymore, I had the questions directed to Charles.
“Let me explain, Angela,”
“Looking at you right now really scares me not to talk to listening to you,”
I screamed. I still couldn’t believe I was standing right there talking to them both when I could’ve just walked out.
“I know you’re in love with Darius but we’re friends. So, please for the sake of our friendship, hear us out,”
“Friendship? You have one hell of a courage for you to use that word. You got me into trouble, Charles. You lied against me, friends don’t do things like that,” I argued. I was so pissed off at the fact that he called us friends.
“Please, Angela,” Halle begged.
“Fine. I’m listening,”
They turned to look at each other. I could see Halle shaking her head but Charles on the other hand looked determined.
“I only came back to the pack today,”
My eyes widened and I twisted my fist. “Make that make sense to me. How were you able to go past the warriors at the gate?”

Chapter 70
He pushed his hand forward. “I’ve been in this pack longer than Darius. Those men, those warriors know me more than him. They trust me more than Darius. Believe it or not, Angela, this pack is more mine than Darius“”
I was in disbelief and utter shock engulfed me but right inside of me, I knew he was right. He was already acting like a Beta before he became the Beta. He grew up with these people. They worked together for years, ate together, trained together, and learned to trust each other.
“Listen! Whatever this is, is the most bizarre thing I’ve ever witnessed. You’re supposed to be gone for good from this pack,”
“I know but I only came back beca…” I raised a finger, not ready to listen to whatever he had to say.
“I’m not done talking. You sneaking back into the pack is a sign of rebellion. You’re making yourself into the alpha that you’re not,”
He opened his mouth to say something but Halle grabbed his hand, stopping him.
“Don’t say that, Angela,”
“Let her say whatever Halle. It doesn’t change the fact that I’m the rightful Alpha to this pack, not Darius. You’re too blinded by love to see the truth,”
He said so nonchalantly I almost walked to him and punched him in the face.
“You’re too blinded by your stupidity to see the truth,” I yelled at him.
Menacingly, he walked towards me and asked with a proud smirk on his face. “Do you even know that his father left a will to never let Darius become the Alpha of this pack?”
“Yes,”
“Yes, and his father did that for greed. Do you even know the truth about my father and the other’s death?”
troubles,”
Without sparing the two of them any more time, I barged out of the apartment. I was furious but at the same time, shocked.
“What?” I snapped.
She jumped. That made me feel bad for a minute.
“Why did you come?” She managed to ask.
“Please tell me,” one look at her and I knew I had to tell her. I couldn’t imagine her suffering for what she didn’t do and at the same time, I couldn’t believe I trusted her words. Why do I believe she’s not a part of the Resistance?
“To warn you. You said you weren’t part of the Resistance, right?” I paused and she nodded. “Just be careful. The pack is tensed now, you should be really careful,”
