Chapter 4

Angela

Our eyes met as soon as those words left his mouth. I thought I was glaring at him, planning how to kill him a million ways until a lone tear dropped from my eyes. He frowned, drinking up the weird look on my face as his eyes pierced mine more.

“You’re as much a suspect as everyone here. Those people died terribly and I’m sure whoever murdered them must have had the urge to come to the funeral and check out his latest masterpiece,”

Yeah! A psychopath like you would do that.

“Those gates remain locked until I account for everyone who attended the funeral, he relaxed into his seat and raised an eyebrow as he awaited a response from me,

“Say something. Nibbles,” he whispered.

I hated that nickname! At the same time, I had nothing to say. I would beg if need be, and I would roll on the floor even if I had to, whatever he wanted, I’d do as long as I didn’t have to touch him.

Sensing my hesitance, he signaled the two men in his office; his Beta and one warrior, to excuse him and they did.

“I need to leave. Whatever that will take, I’m willing to do it,” I answered. My heart was constricted, I hated how much power he had over me at this point but I was more worried about my baby. I don’t want her to be scared or worried about mummy.

Even though it’s possible she’s not alone at this moment, I’m sure she’ll soon be in the next few hours. The teacher she’ll stay with after school will drop her off at home in a few hours.

“How desperate are you to leave?” Darius asked, his eyes dancing over my lips before he sucked in his bottom lips.

I was supposed to be disgusted by his act but it kind of turned me on.

“Very desperate but I swear that I’d rather kiss a pig than allow you to touch me,” I spat.

He smirked. He held out his hand towards me and I gave him the document I was holding, the one he was supposed to sign. Darius took a good look at me before he picked up a pen and signed it.

Why did he suddenly change his mind? What sort of game is he playing now?

“I’m allowed to go?” I asked, unsure.

“Of course, Nibbles,” he shrugged. I couldn’t read his expression or his mind. He wasn’t like the Darius I used to know. Thi man wasn’t an open book, he had a weird, scary look plastered of his face that made it difficult to know what he was planning or what was going through his mind.

“Stop calling me that,” I complained.

“You don’t get to tell me what to do with my mouth,” I raised an eyebrow, sensing s

I turned, ready to walk out of the office and his life the way I wanted.

“Leaving without a thank you,” he asked from behind me.
