Chapter 41
DARIUS’ POV
W HOURS AGO

“How long do you say this construction would take?” I asked the builder supervisor who was on site working with other pack members. I was trying to reinforce the gates more. We discovered a weak spot after some sexually depraved teenagers, all left the pack for a party in another pack and got arrested.
“About two weeks,”
I shuffled my body to stare at him. Two weeks? That was too long. “That would leave us vulnerable to attacks. I mentioned.
The supervisor gave me a weird smile. “The werewolf world has been at peace with each other for a decade now. I don’t think anything unusual would happen,”
I could laugh at his foolishness. The werewolf world had been at peace because members of the round table such as Mason and I were always at the forefront, removing any Alpha who acted as a threat to another pack or coveted a pack that wasn’t his. Some were killed, some were arrested and imprisoned. The more the threat increased, the more we killed and the more enemies we gathered. I can’t really keep a count of the number of people that want me dead.
“That doesn’t mean we should be careless. Finish this in four days. Get as many pack members as you want. Relieve as many from their post for the next four days and make them work here I want this thing settled without dragging it out. I commanded to him and one of the pack’s managers.
“Yes, Alpha,”
I walked away from the place and Azalea walked right with me. He was chewing some words in his mouth. Working with him made me even understand him better. When Azalea has something to say and he knows that thing could get someone killed or hurt, he hesitates and while hesitating, he chews.
“Spit it out or I break your f*cking jaws,” 1 threatened.
“Someone spotted the Beta and Madam,”
I stopped in my tracks. He had always referred to Angela as Madam, ever since he saw a picture of her with me.
“He’s fearless. That’s undeniable,” That was the only comment I left. I couldn’t believe that despite my warnings. Charl went after Angela. That didn’t matter to me anymore. As long as My Angel keeps returning to me after each day, I don’t anymore about who she met or talked to. As long as whatever she does makes her happy. I’m good. I’ll only have a probl if someone tries hurting her or making her cry.
“Are you perhaps interested in what their discussion was?” Azale asked. I shook my head. I trust Nibbles enough. He asked as soon as we walked into my office building
“Not a bit. Whatever they had to discuss was their private matters. If it’s of any importance, I’d prefer to hear of it from Nibbles herself,”
“I still think you should know about it,”
I held onto my door knob, waiting, and turned to him. “I don’t think I should. You can return to your duty post. Azalea.” I instructed.
“I should say hi to Alpha Mason before I take my leave,”
I raised an eyebrow while Azalea had a smirk on his face. He walked past me into the office, opening the door wide for me to enter. I looked across the room and saw Mason sitting on my chair. That b*stard!
MM.
He stood up to hug Azalea before sitting back.

“So good to see you again, brother,” He spread his arms out hoping I’ll walk over to hug him but I ignored his st*pid a*s and sat on the couch instead.
“Ouch! Why are you so cold?” Azalea bowed before he walked out of the office.
“Why are you here?” I asked him. He was acting silly again.
Something must be wrong.
“You are killing me softly, brother,” He whined like a spoilt brat. I knew very well that Mason was far from being a spoilt brat. He had a few share of what a pathetic father should be.
“You didn’t tell me you’ll be coming to my pack.”
“It seems as if we’re talking about two different things here,”
I growled. “That’s because we f*cking are. Tell me Mason, what the f*ck is wrong?”
His demeanor changed. He knew I wasn’t in the mood for jokes anymore. “Calm your horses. Follow me to your Nightfall Brig. I called for an arrest on your behalf,”
“What?”
I asked in disbelief. He walked into my pack without informing me and also made an arrest behind my back. I smirked. I couldn’t bring myself to hate that or hate him for doing that.
“One of your pack members has been in liaison with the Alpha of the Mindless and from what I learned from the Alpha through what I call a peaceful conversation, they’ll be bringing him the document for the alliance agreement we had by noon tonight,”
Right before I left our mom’s pack to take over this pack, Mason and I had an alliance that had all our secrets, reinforcement plans, and agreements. It could make or break a werewolf pack. It contained some of the horrible decisions Mason and I had made along with other members of the round table.
I 1 fisted my palm and clenched my jaw. I understand the pack members hate me but going so far as to willingly put their pack in danger just to spite me was out of it.
“Which one of them was it?” 1 asked.
Mason winked at him. We walked into the Nightfall Brig and the door to one of the cellrooms opened. There he was, in all his foolishness. My Beta, Charles.
“He hasn’t particularly hidden his hatred for me but I wasn’t expecting him to go this far,”
Mason smirked. “An exchange would’ve happened tonight,”
“What sort?”
Mason placed his hand on my shoulder. His look suddenly turned serious. “The document for Alpha of the D*mned in exchange for providing food and shelter for two people,”
“Daisy?”
He shook his head. “Angela and Reina,”
A loud noise suddenly rang through my ear. It was as if my world collapsed right in front of my eyes. I couldn’t bring myself to believe what I was listening to. Mason squeezed my shoulder and that was what brought me back to my senses.
t MM.
The guy Mason brought with him came out of the room after he was done questioning’ Charles. “What did he say?” Mason asked.
“I was able to retrieve the document. His story corroborated all that the Alpha of the Da*ned said. He was going to leave with those two tonight and deliver them to the Da*ned pack along with the document,”
I clenched my jaw so tight I could barely feel my head. Was this what betrayal felt like? I’ve been betrayed so many times and all those times, I didn’t feel a thing but I can’t seem to wrap my head around thisAll content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
