Chapter 6
Angela
A sudden coldness hit me at the core and out of reflex, I tightened my grip on Reina. The image that came to my head at that moment was that of my daughter being pulled away from me.
I know Darius and what he’s capable of doing. It was why my parents first decided against our mate bonds. They didn’t want their precious daughter to be involved with a man like Darius. He wasn’t just a b*stard by paternal relation, he was an all- round b*stard. People feared him and his ruthlessness in the pack but I was too blind to see it and I lost myself in the relationship until he showed me his true colors and I saw him for who he truly was.
Now, he’s showing it again that he’s a b*stard.
“You will do no such thing. Darius,” He had no right to threaten me.
I answered. My hands were clammy and I could feel my lips trembling but I wasn’t ready to show it. Never will I show Darius my fear.
“Then, let me follow you home. He demanded with a smirk on the corner of his lips.
I don’t want to have anything to do with you,” My shoulders tightened as I let out an impatient snort. I stalked away from him ready to leave in a huff. I was done having a conversation with him.
He wasn’t listening. He just wants to do what he wants. Nothing else mattered. I shouldn’t have believed him when he agreed. to let me leave the pack after previously refusing. I suspected his sudden change of heart but I underestimated what he could do.
“I’m pretty sure you’re aware I didn’t come here alone, right?”
I shook my head, not in denial but in uttermost bewilderment. are you threatening me?” I asked.
“If that is the only thing that’ll make you listen to me tonight, then you leave me with no choice, Nibbles,”
“I don’t want to listen to you
you now or ever because you’re not listening to me either.”
“Tell me, what do you want?” He stared at me, not blinking. His lips parted slightly as a silly grin was plastered on his face That look on his face brought back so many memories. Of us, tangled up in bed under the sheet or holding hands while walking around the pack. I bit down on my bottom lips and looked away, steering the memories away from my head.
“Leave me alone, Darius,”
“I’m afraid that’ll be impossible,”
“Then you left me with no choice. I’m getting the cops involved, I threatened.
I was getting tired of arguing, waiting on a long pavement, and screaming my lungs out at a man who was not ready to listen. to me. I just want this to end, not for my sake but for Reina’s sake.
Fortunately, a cop’s car came into view as it was being driven down the road. I heaved a deep sigh of relief, believing I could finally walk away from here.
I raised a hand, stopping the car. It stopped and the driver, a young cop dropped down from the car and walked towards us.
How can I help you ma’am? Is everything okay?” He asked, looking between me and the child I was holding.

I complained, hoping I’d be free of Darius tonight.

He turned to Darius and a wave of recognition set up on him. His posture suddenly became stiffened with rigid muscles and immediately bowed his head.
Alpha Darius,”
My mouth flew open and I unknowingly let out a loud gasp. It was unbelievable. What was the possibility that the cop knew
who Darius was?
“Sorry for the inconvenience, officer. This lady and I are trying to sort out some indifference. You shouldn’t worry about it,”
“Yes, Alpha Darius,” He responded without arguing.
The officer turned to me and said, “Sorry ma’am,”
“Can you at least, give me a ride home?” I asked before he could walk away, hoping he’d act like an officer for once and not a
puppet to Darius.
He turned to look at Darius for permission to perform his duty of protecting the citizens of his state.
I snorted, still finding it hard to believe any of what just happened.
“Yes ma’am.”
Without any reluctance, I carried Reina into my hands and walked towards the officer’s car.
She was waving at Darius and he waved back. I gave the officer my home address and he drove off almost immediately.
A few minutes later, we arrived at my home. Reina was already sleeping. I found Darius resting against a car as we got down from the officer’s car. I was surprised to see him there but not shocked. The minute I told the officer my address, I knew something like this was going to happen.
*Surprised to see me?” He asked.
“Not one bit, Darius,” I answered. My building was an apartment complex. I lived on the first floor. It wasn’t anything luxurious. It was just a one-bedroom apartment with a kitchen and room.
“You live in this dilapidated building.”
“Back off, Darius,”
He moved away from me so I could open the door but stopped me before I could close it.
“I want to be a part of her life, Nibbles. I want to n
make up for the years that I’d lost,”
“She did just fine without you, she’ll be fine without you,”
“Are you finally admitting that she’s my child?”
I clicked my tongue. “Just leave us alone, Darius. Please,”
“I want to right my wrong,
“Find somewhere else to do that,”
“With or without your permission, Nibbles, I’ll make everything right again. Even if I get burned in the process. I’m never letting go again. So don’t try to stop me or else you’ll get burned as well,”
