Darren’s POV The worse part about being in this kind of situation is not having Rudolph, my human side wasn’t useless, but while fighting the Alpha guards I knew exactly what I was up against; it was insulting to say that I wasn’t up to the task now. The wolves bane and my body's slow healing process meant I had to avoid any display of power to stay safe and well, even though that wasn’t what I wanted. What I had in mind was to fight, I had to see Miranda by all cost and nothing or no one would stop me. “I see you're calling for your death.” The commander warned upon seeing my stance, it was crazy, but there was a chance that if I could run in, I would get to the door and at least have the Alpha give me a listening ear. “This is the last warning, to let me see Miranda, or else you'll regret it.” I said, but I knew that it sounded more like a threat, I had let it out without thinking of my plan to stay safe and avoid the fight. “Oh really? One more move from you and you'll wish yo
Darren’s POV “I’m Al…” I began, but he stopped them short by asking, “are you really going to answer that question like an omega? Laying at my feet?”. His words hit home hard and almost felt like he was taunting me, if he knew the relationship I had with his daughter, then he was just being nice…with pain surging through my veins, I slowly stood to my feet. “I am the Alpha of the shadow pack.” I said, but his face gave no emotions making me gulp wondering what he was thinking, could it be that he really didn’t know me with that introduction of mine, or he didn’t know the whereabouts of his daughter for the past six years? “I’m Darren Thane… The alpha of the shadow park.” I said again before stretching out my hand in hopes for a handshake, but he glared at my outstretched hands, making me put them down amidst an embarrassed chuckle. If I were him too, I wouldn’t exchange a shake with a man who looked like me and worst still couldn’t take the blows his guards had given me. His eyes
Darren’s POV I felt so helpless and at the same time angry at myself, the look in her eyes while she walked out made my heart cry. It made me wonder as I was dragged out the extent to which I had hurt Zora, memories started flooding my closed eyes and I winced. The guards dragged me out showed no mercy and made sure my roughed-up and aching body kissed the floor a couple of numbers of times…enough to hurt. Thankfully, rather than just throwing me out, I was thrown into the back seat of my car and the Gamma personally offered to drive me back to my pack as a sign of respect, even though I knew that it just wasn’t that. There was a catch to it, as I lay in the back seat I slipped in and out of consciousness. “You seem sorry and that is one of the reasons why I had offered to take you back, but I must say, you are in no condition to take the alpha princess back” he suddenly began speaking. “Another reason why I agreed to take your sorry ass out of there was because of the princess”
Miranda's POV “Michael mentioned it the day you signed the contract” He said before moving to sit down. “Is this really necessary?” He asked before ruffling his hair as though he were in deep thought. He then stood up, “like for you to go to the training camp? I mean, I don't really think this is a necessity.” He said and walked closer to me, he got his hands on my cheeks. “I have all you'll ever need, money? Wealth? Fame? Protection? Goo…” I cut him off. “I think that's enough dad, and I am not questioning your ability to provide me with basic amenities, and honestly, I thought you would understand me better than this” I pulled off his hands and turned my back against him. “I know you have all there is to keep me protected but that day you weren't there and if only I had training just like I could…maybe we wouldn't have derailed, I don't blame you for anything but I…” I halted and turned back to him. “I'll never get myself, my happiness and the hope I once had.” I said. “W…wha
Miranda's POV “Would you mind having a cup of tea with me?” He asked cheerfully. “I don't seem to understand why you called me here, Dad,” I said instead feigning being angry. He chuckled and said, “When you were much younger, this was a very common trait of yours” “What!” “Well you were done of doing what you are doing now, and I thought you had grown out of it, but it seems indeed bad habits die hard” “Sit down, I don't like to see you standing as I forced you here” I walked across the room, and sat opposite him before flashing him a fake smile, “Happy now?” The laptop on his table dinged, and he flashed me a brief smile before typing away, when he was done, he closed his laptop and finally got his attention to me. “About what you requested yesterday?” He said. A smile appeared on my face immediately, was it really what I thought he was talking about? “Yes, it is,” Emerald said in a voice that showed she was as excited as I was, my face lit up in excitement. “I apologize
Darren's POVThe best way I had learned to handle Vivian was with my silence because hard words ould strengthen her.Harsh words would have been better to handle her now regardless of what ever she wanted to do.But I rather not say a word, I needed no one to know the contemptuous and resentful feelings I had towards Vivian, love was the last thing I had for her."I need my Beta." I said and just then Carl walked as though I had mind linked him."Greetings Alpha." He said and walked closer to me."You seem much better now, you scared everyone" He's aid amidst soft chuckles making me smile."I never got to say thank you so much for saving me before falling unconscious." I said as he nodded."It is my duty Alpha." He said with a bow.My recovery didn't take long after and I ordered to be taken home, after losing my father hospitals never made me feel at ease.I was finally discharged and I had recovered completely, Rudolph was now active and responsive.Paul offered me a ride home, he wa
Darren’s POV Mom let out a gasp in surprise and it looked so much like she couldn’t believe what I was saying before shaking her head, laughing at what I had said a though I had cracked a joke. “This must be a joke right?” she voiced out staring up at me but I gave her no response, there was no need answering her. She let out another gasp before her facial expressions became changing, “what does she have over you? What dark force is she using on my son?” she muttered to herself while Vivian just stood staring at me with her hands in akimbo. If glares could bore holes, I would have been dead by now. “How can you love someone that had killed your dad?” she asked making me chuckle. “is that what helps you sleep at night?” I taunted, “Mom, you and I know what had happened that day; trust me you don’t a third person finding out. She moved back in surprise at what I had uttered, even Vivian ended up sending a sharp glance to me but I honestly didn’t care. I owed them nothing! "I can’t
Darren's POV “What do you supposedly mean by that statement of yours?” she asked angrily making me smirk, “trust me you don’t want me to get started on this”. “No I do Alpha Darren” She said interrupted, “what is there to ay again huh? What else do you think you would say that I can’t take?” she asked, not smiling at all. “What exactly do you have to say, Alpha Darren?” it sounded like a dare but I could see her holding back her tears just like always, “I would just have to find out what have I ever done to you to deserve this?” "The way I see it, you had always been at the sideline doing a perfect job in poisoning me and my mom but one person that got past that defense was my dad and It made me realize that he must have threatened you with something that made you go abroad and only return after asserting your hold in my pack behind my back even though I was with you” “What do you mean by all this?” she asked with tears starting to drop down. “You fucking poisoned mom's heart aga
