Chapter 441

Angela

The following morning. Azalea came into the room where I’d been with food and water. It was some Avocado with bread and honey. I took a good look at the food anil knew I wasn’t going to cat even if it was forced down my throat.

“Thank you.” I whispered. He was staring at me, maybe waiting for me to eat. I frowned and he seemed to notice that.

“It’s safe to eat, I prepared it myself” he assured me.

“Thank you but I’m not hungry,”

I told him gently. I would even prefer if he removed the food from my presence.

“You should eat. You have to,” he sternly said before he headed for the door.

A new scent hit my nose and I took it in as if I’d been waiting for that scent all my life. It was refreshing and it kind of brought comfort to my life even though I was moved to tears.

Azalea whispered something to Darius before going out and he nodded before taking steps into the room. His jaw was clenched and his hands were thrown in the pocket of his trouser His eyes were everywhere but me. I kept mine fixated on his face hoping I would get a glimpse of him when he looked at me but nothing, he didn’t spare me a glance.

“Reina asked about you this morning. She said she wouldn’t go to school unless she saw you first. I’m guessing she sensed something wasn’t right,” he mentioned. He was pacing the room. Darius was never like this. I don’t want to believe he was anxious or nervous about something.

Although his pace wasn’t quick, it was calculated and regal.

“Maybe I can talk to her on the phone if you’d let me I suggested

He hummed. He was calmer and more collected than the last time I saw him. Two nights ago, he was mad, and controlling his beast from taking over.

“That doesn’t appeal to me,” he began talking. “I would rather release you, Angela, for the sake of our daughter,”

“I would prefer you listen to my side of the story rather than release me from here. I can talk to Reina and tell her that I the pack for a few days,”

“Another day, another *ucking lie. You don’t want to stop at just lying to me alone but now, you want to lie to Reina,”

“It’s for the best” I defended my options.

“Was that what you thought when you agreed to flee the pack with your lover and my child?” He asked. One of his hands was out of his pocket now. I could see the lines brooding on his forehead.
