Chapter 51

Angela

“Can I help you, Miss?” Darius’ receptionist who also happened to be one of the pack’s warriors stopped me as soon as I marched out of the elevator.

I didn’t plan on speaking to anyone else except Darius.

“What?” I asked him. That was when I turned to see he was a kid, maybe eighteen or nineteen and instantly, I felt guilty talking to him that way.

“Do you have an appointment?” He asked, scrutinising me. His eyes were on the computer and at the same time on me. With his stance. I knew he was ready to block the door to Darius’ office if I ever tried to enter.

“Since when do we need an appointment before seeing the Alpha?” I asked back..

Although the question was rhetorical, I still expected some answers since I was genuinely curious.

“Since forever, ma’am,”

“The last time I was here, I didn’t need an appointment,” I answered.

“I’m sorry about that ma’am but I can inform him immediately that you’re around and if he wants to see you…”

“If?” I interrupted, stopping him.

As I was about to press the elevator button, the door opened and Azalea walked in.

“Madam,”

I raised an eyebrow. “What?” I asked. Did he just call me Madam Or did I hear wrong?

“Are you here to see Alpha Darius?” He asked.

I nodded. “I was told I can’t see him without an appointment,”

He gave the boy a stern look, threw his hand in his pocket and gestured for me to follow him
