Darius POV
“There’s no need <b>lurking </b>around my gates anymore. <b>You’ll </b>find your mate back in your home,”
I notified Ryker. He looked up from his crouched position with a hard re on <b>his </b>face.
You yed me,” he growled.
“No, Ryker. You got yed. There’s <b>a </b>difference. Why? Because nobody yed you. Now, stop being a fucking crybaby and get the hell out of my <b>pack</b><b>. </b><b>You’re </b><b>scaring </b>my <b>people</b>.”
Heughed. “I just found out the bitch I let into my castle was your ex–wife. You had <b>this </b>all nned,”
I clicked my tongue. “I love taking credits but I wouldn’t take credit for this one. After you kidnapped my mate, my ex–wife found out who you kidnapped and reached out to me. See, <b>that’s </b>why I said <b>you </b>yed yourself,”
He growled again, I moved towards him.
“<b>Run </b>home. <b>Don’t </b>keep your dear mate waiting. It’s not like she fancies seeing you anyways,”
He menacingly moved towards me at a slow, threatening pace
“You have no right to talk about my mate like that,”
“Be careful, Ryker. When the woman you’re supposed to love isn’t your biggest fan, you tend to not have secrets because she’ll always find a way to make friends with your enemies. Tread carefully
He pointed at me. This isn’t over<b>,</b>”
<b>“</b><b>I’ll </b>transfer the money my father collected from you back to your ount. Let that be the end of your request for my Pack. If it happens again, TII find you in your hole and smoke you out,”
<b>“</b>I’m stepping down for the sake of my mate, not for anything else. She doesn’t deserve to be dragged into this crap between us. I hope I don’t get to see your face again in this lifetime.”
The fact that Ryker stepped down because of his mate kind of got to me. Ryker never had <b>a </b>kryptonite. Not even the death of his parents moved him but the woman he loved made him so much less stubborn.
“And I don’t need your fucking money,” he said as he got to his car
“If only wishes were horses. Keep it!”
Imanded.
I waited outside the gates for!
him to leave with his men. He’d waited all night right in front of the gates. I’d thought he’d left until Azalea informed me that he was still right there where I left him.
He didn’t go look for Ang like he’d promised. Maybe he waited for me to join him or maybe he was too stressed about the idea of his mare being in danger to <b>walk </b>away.
Whatever it <b>was</b>, it <b>wasn’t </b>any of <b>my </b><b>business</b>.
“<b>Fuck</b>,” I mumbled. I hated the idea of arguing or fighting with Ang. She looked at me earlier for a second or two before <b>looking </b>away. As she ripped her gaze from mine, I held my breath. It was as if the universe almost fell
I <b>looked </b>up <b>to </b>see the skies changing. I picked an umbre from the corner of the office building and gave it to Azalea.
<b>“</b>Give this to Ang,”
He looked at me and smirked. <b>That </b>fucker!
I red at me and he <b>quickly </b>walked away.
I <b>was </b>nning on waiting for the rain to stop at the office but through my office window, <b>I </b>saw Ang walking away with the umbre. I decided to follow her at a reasonable distance. I didn’t want to scare her but I wanted to protect her.
She walked into our home and I found out what she was about to do. I smirked and <b>then </b>followed her in after waiting for a few minutes.
<b>1/3 </b>
11:37 AM
“Sneaking around the house now, aren’t we?”
She screamed. I regretted my decision to sneak up on her almost immediately. She was terrified.
Her little shlight came to my <b>face </b>and she sighed loudly, I switched on the li
light in the room.
“Sorry, I scared you, I quickly apologized.
She ced her hand on her chest and nodded.
“It’s fine. I get easily scared,”
“I know!” I whispered. She looked at me and we held each other’s gaze for a moment.
“What are you doing?” <b>I </b>asked her.
“Packing some <b>things</b>. I’ll be staying at my mom’s for a few days,
I held her hand. “Still <b>mad </b>at me, baby?”
She gerly removed my hand from hers.
“It’s not all about you, Darius. My mom needs me and I have to be there for her,”
“I know but you won’t even look at me,”
She stopped forcing the clothes into Reina’s suitcase and looked at me for two seconds. Something had changed in her
gaze
“See, I’m looking at you<b>,</b><b>” </b>
looking through me, Ang. I know you’re mad <b>because </b>of what happened but you have to give me a chance to exin,”
“<b>You’re </b>looki
“Later, not now. I can’t listen to any exnation right now.
“Tine. If you won’t listen to any exnation, can you at least tell me how you’re doing?”
“What?” She asked. She frowned lightly as if she didn’t understand my question
“Are you okay? Did anything bad happened to you at Ryker’s pack? Did you get hurt? Did anyone hurt you? I swear to God, I’m nning on kicking those asses if they as muchy a finger on you,”
I threw her.
She dropped the clothes and threw her hands around my neck.
Something happened. And now, something more terrible will happen to <b>a </b>lot of people
Tell me, Ang, who hurt you?” I tried making her face me and tell me but she only held me tighter.
Just hug me for now, Darius<b>,</b><b>” </b>
Even though I was very very angry) I hugged her tightly. She took a deep breath. She was trying to stop the tears.
“Baby, please talk to me. What happened? I asked again.
She suddenly let go. “Nothing happened, I swear. Did Velicia tell you anything?”
I raised an eyebrow. “I haven’t seen her all day. Why did you ask?”
She shook her head <b>again</b>. “Nothing.”
I knew she was damn subborn. “You know you can tell me if something happened, right? You <b>can </b>talk to me whenever you want about anything and I’ll be right here, or right there, anywhere you want me to be, baby,”
She kissed my cheeks, “I know that damn right, This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

I bent my head to kiss her but first looked at her for permission. She closed her eyes slightly and I took that as <b>a </b>yes,
