Chapter 27

Darius

“Alpha Darius,” Daisy cried as soon as I stepped into the room where she was admitted at the hospital. She had a bandage around her arm. I still don’t understand what could’ve transpired between the two but Angela had no right to hurt this girl.

She had been nothing but sweet and nice to Reina. I’ve been thinking of ways to show my appreciation to her but I guess Angela had to pay her one way or the other.

“How are you feeling?”

I asked. I threw my hands in my pocket and stood by the foot of her bed.

“It hurts, Alpha Darius,” I gave her a reassuring, sad smile. I’m sure my late wife would have dug herself out of her grave if she saw Daisy like this, courtesy of my woman.

“It was mine. My father gave it to me some months ago. It’s like family emblem. I always have it with me,” Daisy answered. I nodded, taking in her words. She looked tired, I didn’t think to ask her too many questions but I needed to know what happened.

“What happened today, Daisy?”

She tried to sit up but she couldn’t manage on her own. The doctor had to help her up.

“You told me this morning that I could take Reina from the school and you’ll tell Angela about it.”

Shit! I was too preoccupied to actually tell Angela that Daisy would pick Reina up from school. Shit!

“But by the time I got to the school, I found out Angela already picked Reina up. So, I went home to confront he she would do something like that,” I sucked in a deep breath.
