Darius‘ POV
“What?” She asked, her face masked with disbelief.
“It’s too dangerous. You told me yourself you saw someone creepy following you around the mall. Now, you want to go back to the same town thinking it’ll be safe. How is that even possible p>
“I’m not going there to announce myself or maybe put myself in danger, ”
“Trust me, danger go looking for people too”
She stabbed her finger on my chest. “I’m going to a funeral and once I’m done, I’ll come back here p>
I shook my head. “Until I realize it’s safe for you to leave, I can’t let you go p>
“When is it ever going to be safe for me? When exactly, Darius? Can you tell me the time or the year it’ll be safe? As far as I know, I have no enemies p>
I touched her thighs trying to lift her off my body and leave the room before she was able to compel me into believing she could leave.
“What are you trying to do?” She asked, searching through my eyes.
“You need to go back to bed. It’s late and I also have some work to attend to p>
“Really?.” She paused, “I’ll let you leave once you give me the permission to leave this pack p>
I raised an eyebrow. “Did you actually wait for me because you missed me or because you wanted me to let for the funeral of someone I don’t even have a clue about”
She stood up from my thighs and adjusted her top.

“Maybe if you didn’t walk out on me six years ago, you wouldn’t have to be clueless about someone in my life p>
I stared at her. I couldn’t believe she had to make a reference to that but I wasn’t going to blame her. It was all my fault. She placed all her trust in me and I broke her.
“You’re never going to let that matter go, are you p>
She took a deep breath. “I’m sorry I said that. My anger got the best of me p>
“No, it’s fine. You should say more than that, in fact. I deserve it. I walked out on you. I disrespected you, I mocked you, so I deserve all the terrible things you have to say p>
“Darius, ”
“But still, my answer remains no. You can’t leave. I don’t have enough security to keep the pack safe and keep you safe at the same time if you’re not here. I can’t spare my men for more than a day or two. Just stay where my eyes can be on you all day p>
“Then let me travel without the security p>
“And risk your life and let you stupidly get yourself hurt when you could’ve been safe p>
She glared at me.

Chapter 77
Fine. I’ll stupidly get myself hurt and I hope you’ll be able to say I told you so p>
“What p>
“I’m leaving. Even if you say yes or no, your opinion doesn’t matter anymore. I’m leaving this pack and if any of your stupid, wild men try to stop me or come close to me as small as an inch, I’ll grab them and cut their throat p>
She demonstrated how she was going to do that with her hands and I couldn’t help but marvel at the sight of it. I was beginning to have a bad influence on My Angel.
“You’ll do no such thing, Nibbles. You’re not leaving and that’s final. Enough with the argument for goodness sake p>
I spat.
“Good. Enough with the argument. Remember, you don’t own me, Darius. I’m a woman of my own. I get to do what I want when I want. You can’t stop me p>
She was feisty, stubborn, and wild but getting through to her was harder than I’d thought.
“No p>
“Stop being such a big head. Stop being so stubborn,” she cutely stomped her feet on the ground.
“You’re the one who needs to stop being so hotheaded. This conversation is not going to head anywhere if you keep being so stubborn. Don’t make me tie you up to that bed” I threatened.
“F*ck you, Darius. F*ck you and f*ck your stupid wolf. You both might be big but you don’t scare me p>
She angrily walked into the bathroom.
I turned to walk out of the room but that was when I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. My eyes were pitch black. My wolf had presented himself to her during the argument and Angela didn’t panic like the other day.
I should’ve felt proud of her but I knew I needed a run. Staying in that form might be safe for Angela but it was dangerous for others.
Pushing through the front door, I shifted into my wolf and dashed into the thick forest. I kept running for minutes, not even knowing where I was going in particular.
The thought of Angela being away for those few days was unbearable. Coming home to find her not there would be too much for me to handle. I desperately wish she would change her mind.
“Alpha p>
Someone pressed into the mind link. It was a female voice and I quickly recognized the voice as Daisy’s.
“Daisy, what are you doing out here p>
She walked slowly up to me. Her wolf was smaller than mine and that kind of made me realize I’d never seen Angela’s wolf.
“I saw you run towards the wood, so I followed you p>
“You should go back. It’s too dangerous out here p>
“I know, Alpha but I was just worried about you. I haven’t seen you in the Alpha’s mansion for a while and I’ve been wondering if I did something wrong. Do you hate me now? Did Angela tell you I did something bad to her? I don’t even see Reina anymore p>

This is not the good time to talk, Daisy. You should go back. I’ll come talk to you at the mansion p>
“We can go out for lunch tomorrow, ”
“Sure, let’s do that p>
“Thank you, Alpha,
I could feel some movement in the woods. I couldn’t pick their scents and that made it difficult for me to know if they were from my warriors or an enemy group. I followed it without looking back since I’d dismissed Daisy and it would be stupid of her to follow me,
The first thing I saw was a cave. I’d always noticed that cave whenever I was patrolling but nothing seemed extraordinary about it so I never bothered to check. That night, something was different.
I walked deep into the cave and saw writings on the wall. A table was in the middle of the cave with books and a lamp. The writings on the wall revealed that it was the hideout of the Resistance group. I picked up a book just as I saw a shadow run across my line of vision.
Just when I wanted to run after it, I heard a gunshot and a scream rang out.
“ Daisy,” I called out through the mind link but there wasn’t a response.
“Daisy,
I ran back to where I left her or dismissed her to go back and I found traces of blood. I trailed after it and soon found her still in her wolf form wounded and bleeding.
“Daisy, stay with me, I tried examining her.
“Help me,” she cried through the mindlink.
“I need help,” I commanded through the mindlink and more than 20 warriors responded.
Daisy was dying and it was my fault.
