Angela’s POV

My mouth dropped open slightly as soon as Darius made his announcement. I guess I was just as surprised as every member of the Pack. When he said he would be stepping down as the Alpha, I could hear a loud noise ring in my ears. I didn’t want to believe he just said that.

Maybe it was a tactic. Maybe he was kidding. He couldn’t possibly leave.

I thought he loved being an Alpha more than anything. He was made to be an Alpha. Why would he step down? Who would he step down for?

At some point, I wondered if my decision not to become the Luna influenced his choice. It made some sense, but deep down, I knew that couldn’t be the reason.

He wouldn’t do that because of me.

“Did you know about this?” My mother asked.

I shook my head as words failed me. I knew nothing about this. We haven’t talked to each other for the longest time even though it’s just been two days. It felt as though it was an eternity. He was avoiding me and I was too ashamed to show myself before him.

I thought it was better to keep being invisible, staying in the shadow for as long as he was home. I’d lied to his face that I didn’t see myself spending the rest of my life with him. It was ridiculous.

“I have to go talk to him,” I told my mom.

“You should,” she patted my shoulder.

Reina was with her, I was sure she was in good hands. I’ll pick her up later tonight so she can sleep at home. Darius had already told me he wanted us both at the same place almost every time if possible till the entire problem with Ryker is solved.

The crowd was already reducing. People were going back to their various homes. I could see Darius standing at the front, talking to some of his people. By the time I got swallowed by the loud crowd, I couldn’t see who was who not to talk of Darius.

“Angela,” someone called my name and held my hand. I turned aside to see it was Halle.

She pulled me out of the crowd and walked me to one of the corners. It was empty and I could see people leaving. That was when I could finally breathe.

“Thanks,” I muttered.

She shrugged. “It was nothing. You’re still new to things like this. Next time don’t walk forward between the crowd, just keep going straight to your left or right, and soon enough you’ll be out of the crowd. It’s overwhelming sometimes,”

I nodded. Although it’s been six years since I left the pack, we barely had meetings when I was here. On days when meetings like this were called, my father would prefer for Brittany and I to stay home.

“I should leave. Thank you for your help once more,”
