Chapter 76
Darius‘ POV
Putting aside my thoughts and the betrayal, I walked up to Ang on the stairs<b>. </b>She looked so beautiful, so peaceful. I didn’t <b>want </b>to keep staring at <b>her </b>like a creep. I decided to take her to her room.
She didn’t even notice I was there <b>until </b>I picked her up bridal style in my arms. She stared awake. She tried <b>to </b>struggle but once she saw it was me, <b>she </b>stopped struggling and allowed me <b>to </b><b>take </b>her to her room.
I put her on the bed <b>and </b>ced the duvet on her. She kicked it away and I tried it again. She waited for a few seconds before she kicked the duvet off her body and grabbed me by the cor.
“You wouldn’t even look at me now,” she said.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
I managed to look her in the eyes for a few seconds before I looked away. “Go back to sleep. Why were you sleeping on the stairs anyway?”
“Why do you think I was sleeping on the <b>stairs</b>? If you’de home <b>when </b>you were supposed to, <b>would </b>I have slept there waiting for you?”
A smile found its way to my lips but I quickly coughed to cover it <b>up</b>.
“You shouldn’t have. Go back to sleep,”
“No!” She stubbornly refused. “You’ve been avoiding me. You leave the house before I wake up and you return when <b>I’m </b>in bed. Now <b>that </b>I’ve caught you sneaking back in, you won’t even <b>look </b>at me.”
“Can you let me go, Nibbles?” She was still holding on to my cor stubbornly.
“No!” She yelled.
“You’ll wake Reina up, I huhsed her.
“She <b>sleeps </b>like a log. I’m <b>sure </b>she wouldn’t <b>wake </b>up. Now, why are you avoiding me? Is it because of what I said?”
<b>She </b>asked.
“<b>Maybe</b>,”
“You don’t want to talk about your <b>wolf</b>? Is that it? Is that why?” She sounded disappointed. I could hear her voice breaking at the end and it made my heart ache so badly.
She dropped my cor and moved further away from me.
<b>“</b>Get out!” Shemanded
I nodded. I stood up straight, ready to leave the <b>room</b>. It was enough that I’d seen her and that I’d taken in her scent. I could continue avoiding her because that was the best thing to do. If I brought up the topic and I heard the truth from her, it might kill me.
Before I could turn <b>and </b>walk out, I saw a lone <b>tear </b>fall from her eyes and I could swear I felt my legs shook with a deep intensity.
“Why are you in tears?”
I f*cking hated seeing her cry.
“<b>You </b>are the reason.”
“I’m always the <b>reason</b>, <b>aren’t </b>I?” <b>I </b>asked. I sat beside her on the bed and cleaned her tears away.
She tried k*ssing me. I removed my <b>lips </b>from hers.
“What? Fine! I don’t want to know about your <b>wolf </b>anymore,‘ she cried.
“Enough with the tears, baby,” I begged.
“Then stop being so mad at me,”
“I’m not mad at you. I’m… I’m just disappointed, I confessed.
“Because I got scared of you and your wolf,”
I took a deep breath. “No! It’s…” she k*ssed my forehead. She k*ssed my nose. I stopped her before she could k*ss my lips.
“<b>Can </b>you tell me <b>please</b>?”
She gave me a puppy look that brought me to my knees.
This woman was killing me! She has so much power over me <b>that </b>she didn’t know. I avoided her because I was trying to avoid this.
“You saw Charles, didn’t you?” I asked. She froze up and quickly looked away from me.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
I asked her.
She was scared of something, I could tell. I knew Ang and I knew her response to fear. Nothing was different this
time <b>as </b>well.
“I wanted to when I came to your office with Reina days ago but you were already on your way to find him <b>so </b>1 decided not to tell you,”
She <b>said</b>.
I nodded. I trusted her enough to believe she was telling the truth but something else was scaring her.
“Did something else happen that you’ll want me to know?”
She hesitated then shook her head. “Nothing happened,”
We stared at each other for a while and she gave me a really big smile.
“Are you okay? I heard what happened with that warrior,”
“Do you believe I killed him?”
Sheughed. “You didn’t. If you did, they’ll hear it directly from you,”
I k*ssed her neck. “That’s my girl,”
“Do you want to talk about your wolf?”
“There’s nothing <b>to </b>talk about, baby. My wolf’s dangerous. More dangerous than you know. What you saw that day is

its usual, normal form. You don’t <b>have </b>to be scared of him. He loves you as much as I do.
There was <b>much </b>more I was hiding from her but I wanted her to be ready before telling her or maybe I would show her rather than tell. I could only hope when I finally did she wouldn’t run away in fear again.
<b>She </b>nodded excitedly. “Sorry, I ran off. I panicked,”
That’s fine. I understand, My Angel,”
I k*ssed her. She k*ssed me back just as much. She threw her hands around my neck and ced herself on myp. while her mouth didn’t leave mine.
I dragged my mouth off hers and ced it on her <b>neck</b>, k*ssing the bite mark that I was so proud of. I k*ssed my way back to her lips. I could keep k*ssing her for a year without stopping or getting tired.
“Darius,” she moaned out.
“Hmm,
<b>I </b>put my hands inside her top and dragged the clothes over her head.
“I need to tell you something.”
I <b>groaned</b>. “Can it <b>wait</b>?”
“I don’t want to forget about it,”
She sounded serious. I stopped k*ssing her and looked at her.
The look on her face told me she was about to get defiant or naughty.
I squinted my eyes as I waited for her to talk.
“I need to leave the pack,”
“NO!”
