A Love Reawakened The Alpha’s Regret

Chapter 57 

Angela’s POV 

Darius claws protruded as though he was about to shift right there at that particular time. I took a deep breath ready for whatever was to come. Zack removed his hand from my shoulder as he looked between me and Darius. 

“Alpha Darius,” Zack rose to his feet and walked up to him. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Darius glared at him, scrutinizing him with a murderous look on his face. 

I didn’t have a choice other than to stand. 

He groaned. “Sorry to interrupt,” 

“No, you didn’t interrupt anything, Alpha. Is there any reason why you’re here?” Zack asked. 

Darius turned to look at me. He had his usual “you’ve fucked up again” look on his face. I know he made me promise not to let another man touch me but that promise was fucking impossible.. 

Without giving Zack an answer, Darius barged out of the office. Zack looked back at me with confusion and smiled weakly. 

“Sorry for the interruption,” 

I frowned. It was after Darius left that I realized I’d opened up to Zack about my darkest secret. I hated myself so much because I told him. I wanted to die after it did and decided to keep it my secret for many reasons, 

“I think I should go,” 

“You can stay. We can talk about something else, or maybe go out and get some meal,” 

I waved him off. I wasn’t really ready to do all that. “No, thank you,” 

“See you next… Before he could complete his sentence, I was out of the door. 

Tears polled in my eyes but I forced myself not to cry and quickly walked away from his office. I was such an idiot to have told him that. What if he told someone what happened to me? Would they mock me? Would they pity me? 

I didn’t know which one I would prefer, mockery or pity. Mockery made me feel disrespected, while pity was worst, it made me feel like trash. 

As I got closer to the house, a figure came out from behind the building and stood in my line of vision. I stopped walking. It was Darius. Talk about the devil and he appears, right? Well, I didn’t need to talk about this devil before he appeared. 

“You hate my touch but I guess you love his touch,” he said, clenching his jaw. His voice was stoic and unexpressive.. 

I didn’t know what came over me but I moved closer to him and grabbed hold of his shirt. 

“Not now, please, not now,” 

I was so close to tears that I knew even if I wanted to argue with Darius, I wouldn’t be able to make out a short sentence before I started crying- 

He held my shoulder and stared at me. His eyes bore into mine as if he was searching for something. His gaze was so enthralling and enchanting. I sucked in a deep breath and for a minute, I thought I found peace. I could see his wolf through his eyes and it was beautiful 

“Til kill him,” he suddenly announced. 

I pulled myself out of his captivating gaze as he also pulled away from me, ready to walk away. 

“He didn’t do anything wrong,” I said immediately his threat made sense to me. He was going to kill Zack. 

He glared at me. “Trying to protect him too, right?” 

“No, Darius. No! He didn’t do anything to me,” 

“He had his hand on your shoulder,” 

1/2 

“That’s because he was trying to comfort me, dumbass,” I spat. 

The tears I was trying to hold rushed down my face. “Then, why are you crying if he didn’t hurt you?” 

“You did. You are the reason why I’m crying.” 

“Don’t say that, Nibbles. I haven’t even said anything or touched you, I stared up at him and saw the confusion in his eyes. His eyebrows squished together and he ran his hand through his hair. 

“I’m not talking about now. Why did you have to make me an artist’s workshop? I told 

He interrupted me. “Because you loved painting and I wanted to give you something you love. That was why I moved you out of the Alpha’s mansion. You and Daisy have this never–ending feud and I wanted it to stop. I wanted you to stop hurting. I hated myself for dragging you here and making you unhappy. I wanted to give you something you’ll love. Something that’ll make you wanna stay here” he paused. “With me,” 

His eyes searched mine. 

Silence ensued between us. 

“I used to love painting but I don’t want to anymore,” 

He held my face in his palm. 

“Why? Is it because of what happened between us five years ago?” 

He whispered. It was just us in the world right now. We didn’t need to shout, yell, or scream at each other because I could hear his unspoken words loud and clear and I was sure he could hear mine. 

“No! Something happened to me after I left. Someone that I looked up to, an artist just like me took me in and he… he touched me inappropriately in the workshop I was using and it’s so…” 

I couldn’t finish the sentence as I felt bugs crawling all over my body. I felt irritated and disgusted. 

“I’m sorry, My Angel. I’m so sorry, 

“Why are you apologizing?” He placed his head against mine. 

“It was all my fault,” 

I held his shirt tightly and stared into his eyes. 

“Why did you leave, Darius? Why did you walk out on me like that? What did I do to deserve that punishment? Was it something you heard? Was it something I did? Was I that horrible?” 

He shook his head fervently. “I was trying to protect you. If I had stayed, you would’ve died, My Angel. I didn’t have a choice. The only thing close to an option for me was to become stronger and come back for you,” 

“I don’t understand,” Even though it was the most he’d ever told me, I still wanted to know why. 

He kissed my hair and pulled me close. “You will soon, baby. You would,” 

“Now, I need every fucking detail of that asshole who hurt you. From the shade of his hair to the color of his eyes to his home iddress to his ancestry and to his name. I need every detail,” he was breathing heavily and I could hear how his fast heartbeat. 

Why?” 

So he’ll start burning from earth to hell where he belongs to,”
