Chapter 52

Angela’s POV

I grabbed hold of his collar, deepening the kiss. It was so hot that I knew I was dripping wet already without being touched. I was tasting the forbidden fruit and heck, it tasted real nice. I told myself I wouldn’t kiss Darius, because that was too intimate but here I was in his office, held up against the wall, being kissed as if it was the end of the world.

And I liked it! Was I supposed to?

One of his hands, left or right, I’m not even sure, grabbed my butt, making me squeal from the sudden touch. I moaned against his mouth as his tongue slid into my mouth, tasting me and giving me a taste of him.

A part of me asked me why I hesitated to kiss him all these while. Was this what I was messing? Cone to hell were the events that took place days ago. I couldn’t even remember where I was

Darius lifted up the hem of my gown and I watched as his hands cupped my wet fold. I bit down on my bottom lips as his eyes pierced mine. He wasn’t kissing me again and I whined for his taste.

“Remember what we agreed on, Angela?” He asked, his tongue brushing against my bottom lip.

“What?” I asked, a frown etching it’s spot on my face.

His finger slid through my panties and I unconsciously closed my eyes. He worked his way around me, teasing me, putting me closer to the edge till I was close. Too close.

Darius sucked on my carlobes, making me a mess completely. His mouth moved to my neck, he bit down on a spot, sucked on it and I could feel my knees wobble. If not for his hand that was holding me up, I would have crumbled to my feet and died.

“The tie that bond us together,”

Right before I could get my organsm as I rode on passion on cloud 9. Darius withdrew his finger, getting a loud whimpering from me.

I groaned. I was shocked and felt st*pid at the same time. Why the heck would he do that for?

He grabbed my face and stared into*my eyes.

“That’s for trying to walk away with another man,”

“What?” I was breathing heavily. Words ceased in my mouth. My legs felt light against the floor.

“Reina is the only reason why I’m still standing right in front of you, Angela. Nothing else. As for the artist workspace, my men would get it done and finished, do with it whatever you want but don’t you come whining to me again about someth else because you’re nobody to me.”

“Darius…” I interrupted him but he shushed me by placing his finger on my mouth.

“The moment you agreed to leave with Charles, you became dead to me,”

I clenched my jaw as his words cut through me. My back was still flat against the wall. Even when he went back to his big desk and chair, I still didn’t find the strength to walk out of his office.

1 felt exposed, I felt raw, unwanted and guilty as f*ck even though I didn’t do anything wrong.

“Fine,” I answered through gritted teeth. “Trust me or not, I didn’t plan to run away with Charles. He told me somebody was after mine and Reina’s life. I couldn’t sit back and wait till somebody hurt my child because of you. Rejna deserves a family.

she loves you but she doesn’t have to prove that with her life,”

He didn’t turn to face me. His back was still facing me but I could see how tensed he got.

“The same day he told me was the same day I decided to leave this pack,”

There was an eerie silence in the room. Neither of us said a word to each other for the next few seconds. All I could hear was the clock ticking along to each breath that I took

“Nibbles..” he started, turning to face me. I raised a finger.

“Don’t call me that,”

I warned. He’d said enough and he’d done enough. He doesn’t have the right to call me that again.

“Why didn’t you come to me when he told you this?”

He asked, his voice louder than before.

“Because I knew you would tell me not to worry about a thing. If those demons could penetrate through your brother’s pack, what’s so special about this one?” I said.

“I would keep you safe, even…”

“How are you supposed to do that?”

if my life depended on it,”

“It doesn’t matter. You killed his sister, he would.koll you and kill us…

you don’t have an iota of trust in me,”

…Yes, I don’t trust you. You’re Darius Darkwood. Nothing about you speaks trust,”

At that moment, he had stopped trying to talk over me and I also stopped doing the same.

“Why is it so hard for you to trust me?”

He held my face between his palms. Looking into Darius eyes almost broke me. It was as though he was begg him.

“Because I’ve heard things,” I answered but swallowed the next words that was supposed to come out of my mou

Because I’ve seen your dead father alive in your dungeons.

“You believe people’s words against mine,”

“You’re no saint,” I argued.

“I know. I’ve done some terrible things and I won’t promise you that I still won’t do horrible things but I want you to rysut me to protect you and Reina,”

He wasn’t pretending. He wasn’t acting as though he was a good person or he’ll be a good person and somehow, that was enough for me.

“Charles told you I killed my wife,”

“He’s not the first person. Did you?” I asked him.

He shook his head.

“If you want me to trust you, then you have to tell me something. This man that’s after your life, did you really kill his sister?” I asked again.

“Does it matter? Would it make a difference to you if I did or not

I took two steps away from him. It was unbelievable that he still wasn’t ready to tell me anything.

“Fine. You don’t have to tell me anything because I’m nothing more than a bbaymama to you, right? Reina is the only tie that binds us together and I hope she gets to be the only reason why I stand in your majestic presence,” I said angrily but laced the last words with sarcasm.

I grabbed the doorknob, with a mind to bang the door in such a way that it’ll rock the entire building.

“You’re more than that to me, Nibbles. You know that,” he said, his words stopping me.

“But if you still want to continue being my little bit*h, the offer still stands,”

I turned around, gave him the middle finger and walked out of the office.

That charming a*shole!
