A Love Reawakened The Alpha’s Regret by Alphabetical B

Chapter 5 Angela What what are you doing here? Why are you here?" It tooka few seconds to ask those questions. I was shocked and beyond bewildered.

If I'd seen Darius in another part of town, I wouldn't have panicked as much but the fact that he was right behind me, staring hard at Reina got on my nerves. What if he starts asking questions? What if? What if? Quickly, I pushed Reina behind my back, hiding her completely from his line of vision while my eyes were focused on him. His eyes followed the movement and gradually moved up my body till it landed on my eyes.

"Who is that?" He asked. His voice, a mix of low rumble and thunder. He didn't sound like the regular, usual Darius. It was sinister or maybe the fact that I was scared of letting him know who Reina was made his appearance scary.

The yellow bright moon shone its amber light on him. I could see the whole of him, completely.

"I asked you a question, Nibbles. Who's that child?" He asked again. I swallowed hard this time, thinking twice or thrice about what my answer should be.

I couldn't possibly tell him Reina was my child. He would find out my deepest secret.

"She's none of your business, Darius. I asked you a question first, I stood my ground despite how wild my heart was racing.

"Yes! Yes! I followed you here. I wanted to find out why you desperately needed to leave the pack tonight and I guess she's the reason," he pointed at Reina.

"Like I said, Darius, she's none of your business. We'll leave now and you should too. Whatever is between us ended five years ago, you have no reason to act like a creep, I held Reina's hand firmly after giving her a reassuring look and turned, ready to flee away from Darius.

"Stop!" He demanded in a low, gentle voice but I didn't stop. He's nobody to command me. He's not my Alpha. that was enough to considera rogue. I belong to no pack and I ha I've lived in the human world for five years and th Alpha "STOP RIGHT THIS INSTANT, ANGELA!" My foot becstuck at the sound of his voice and command. His domi aura took over the atmosphere..

Reina moved more into my body and pressed her face into my thigh. She was getting scared.

"Why are you doing i this, Darius?" I asked. I would've waited to argue but I couldn't do that for Reina's sake.

"Whose daughter is she?" He was standing in front of me. His eyes pierced right into mine.

"Mine. She's my child, Darius," Reina lifted her head to take a look at Darius and he did the sas well. "Who is he, mama?" She asked.

He's nobody, baby," "Is he going to hurt us?" "No, I wouldn't let him touch a strand of your hair. Alright?" She nodded and kept on staring at Darius. His eyes were still fixated on Reina. When he looked up at me, his eyes were 1/3 ||| O 12:59 Tue, May 28 M.

Chapter 5 gorgeous but a new sadness lurked right there in the corner of his eyes.

"I'm guessing she's my daughter," I shook my head. "Don't even try to deny it, Nibbles," I shook my head ferociously. "No, Darius. She's not yours. She's my child," "Then, who is her father, Angela," "I met him months after you left, alright? He's not involved in our lives at the moment," "You still can't lie to save your life. You're tapping your feet, his eyes slid down to my feet and my eyes followed. Shit! Shit! Shit! I can't believe I haven't gotten over the despicable act of tapping my feet rhythmically when I'm trying to keep up with a lie.

"She looks like that and you wantto believe she's not mine." Reina is a spitting image of Darius. She looked so much like him that it scared me. It was also one of the reasons why I'd decided to not tell my parents about my child.

"She's not yours, Darius. She's not yours. You need to leave. Followingto this place is not only creepy but also crazy. Who do you think you are?" I asked angrily.

"Darius Darkwood," he responded with so much cockiness.

"Leave us alone. Let us be on our way and you should be on yours. I have nothing to to do with..." He ignored my words and instead bent on one knee in front ofto talk to Reina.

"Hello. My nis Darius and I'm a friend of your mom," "Your eyes look like mine," Reina mentioned with excitement and giggled afterward.

"Of course, it does. What is your name?" "Reina," "That's a beautiful name, Reina," "Thank you," "So, how old are you Reina?"- Immediately, I pulled her away from him.

"Back off, Darius. I warned you already," "No! You can't ignore the resemblance, Nibbles. I'm not blind," Defensive, I replied "You walked away years ago, Darius. You don't get to waltz back in now and disrupt my life again like you did a year ago," He stood silent. "I explained to you the reason why I needed to leave,"

"Good for you, Darius. Now, I shouldn't have to explain the reason ΟΠΙ for you to stop acting like a pervert and walk away," I had to bite my tongue to stop myself from using the f-word. 2/3 ||| 12:59 Tue, May 28 Ei M M Chapter 5 "Fine!

I laughed bitterly. "Are you deaf? Have I been speaking into the air? I don't want to have anything to do with you. Go back to wherever hellhole you're coming from and I'll go back to mine. Steadily, he walked closer to me.

"Listen Nibbles. I know you're stubborn and unyielding but we both know how crazy I can get. There are just two options available I didn't say a word.

"We can do this the easy way or the hard way. Either I follow you hto know where you live so we can have afcivil conversation later or I leave with my child right this instant," 3/3 ☐ SEND GIFT COMMENT 12:59 Tue, May 28 ti 68 X
