Daniel’s POV
.
“Angel, wake up.”, I gently shook her up.
“Two minutes, babe.”, She mumbled.
Babe?
‘Who is he?’, I thought and started getting angry. She was here near me, in my room, on my bed and was thinking about someone else. I couldn’t help but growl at her sleeping figure.
In no time, she woke up and looked at her surroundings.

Evangeline’s POV
.
I quickly took in my surroundings. The wall facing the bed was rounded and wasn’t the wall at all, but glass from floor to ceiling. Dark red curtains hung to one side and the walls were a cream color and bedding was black and red around me.
And then my eyes landed on Daniel, who was sitting on the bed in a casual jeans and V neck t-shirt, I tore my gaze away from his clothes to meet his eyes. They were golden, and absolutely terrifying.
“Who’s your babe?”, His voice was deep and full of authority as he sat with his hands clenched around the tray full of breakfast.
I would be lying if I said that I was not scared. I was about to talk about my roommate but stopped when I heard his next question.
“Who’s he, Evangeline?”
Not again!
If he had already made up his mind to doubt me then I wouldn’t explain myself. NEVER.
“None of your business.”, I stood up from the opposite side of the bed, facing him with my hands across my chest.
Hearing my answer, he threw the tray he was holding in his hand and stood up. I didn’t think it was possible, but his eyes got darker. He took slow, deliberate steps around the bed, toward me.
Every step he was taking toward me, I was taking one step back, until my back pressed against the cold wall. My breath hitched in my throat both in fear and his proximity.
“It’s my business when you moan BABE thinking about someone else who’s not me. Tell me who HE is now!”, He roared and I swore that our room shook.
“No”
An animalistic growl tore from his lips as he shook with anger. He turned to the side of me and punched straight down the wall. I would have been shaking in fear if Ivory wouldn’t have been with me. She was angry too but unlike Daniel, she knew how to control her anger.
‘Even I can roar back. It’s just I don’t want to make him realize my presence until I solve the mystery of his two mates.’, She said in my mind.
“Fine, then stay in this room. You’re not getting any food or water until you finally decide to open your mouth.”, He ordered as he ran past me, slamming the bedroom door closed behind him. I could hear things shattering and thundering footsteps moving downstairs.
Tears streamed down my face because of his rude behavior. I slowly slid my body to the ground. I pulled my knees to my chest and let my sobs overtake my body.
I didn’t know how long I cried about my fate, but eventually I ended up just sitting on the bed and kept staring at the wall blankly.

Later Nora appeared in my room, carrying a tray of food.
“I’ve brought you some lunch.”, She slowly stopped inside the room, holding the tray to me and judging my mood.
“Does he know?”, I asked emotionlessly and I didn’t move. Just stared.
“Yeah. Actually he himself sent these foods.”
“Thank you but I am not hungry, Nora. Please take the lunch with you.”
“But he…”
“Please, Nora. I insist.”, I said and narrowed my eyes. Giving the signal that I wanted to be alone. She nodded her head and left the room.
I thought about grabbing some sleep instead of doing nothing in the room. Immediately I jumped when the bedroom door flung open, revealing a very agitated Danile holding the same tray that Nora had. He stepped in carefully.
“Angel, you need to eat. Please.”, He said gently.
“I am not hungry.”
“You’re lying, Angel. Please.”, His begging tugged at my heart, but he didn’t know just how stubborn I could be. I was about to decline his request again but that’s when my stomach showed its presence, making me embarrassed in front of me.”See, even your stomach is demanding for food.”, He added, pointing toward my stomach.
I kept silent for a while until his handful of food reached near my mouth. I narrowed my eyes while he signaled to open my mouth. I finally did what he signaled and finally took the food in my mouth.
“I can eat myself.”, I said, trying to take the tray from his hand but he didn’t give it to me.
“Let me feed you.”, He said more like ordered. “By the way how’s it?”, He asked while coming closer to me, making me uncomfortable a bit.
“It’s delicious. I would personally thanks the cook for this amazing food.”, I said truthfully.
“If that is so, then you can thank me.”, He said and smiled, a genuine one.
“Really? Do you cook occasionally?”, I couldn’t help myself from asking that question.
“No, I don’t cook occasionally. It’s just my wolf suggested me to do something for you because of our bitter beginning.”, He said and smiled a little. This was the first time he was trying to open up with me. Now that he was speaking with me normally. It’s my turn to answer him that question which he wanted to ask.
“Umm.. Babe is my roommate.”, I finally said on which he said his eyebrow. “Actually her name is Daina but I call her babe, because she is my junior and is more like my baby sister.”, I added, supporting my explanation.
“Good that Babe is the girl not BOY otherwise I would have torn him to pieces.”, He said arrogantly.
“Not again.”, I said, narrowing my eyes.
“Whatever!”, He shrugged his shoulders. “By the way, I am hosting a dinner party tonight in honor of the pack’s Luna arrival.”
“Okay.”, I nodded my head.
“And I don’t want you to interact with that WOMAN. And that’s my order, angel.”, He said, when the lunch was finished.
“I will attend the party but I will also talk with your mom.”, I challenged him.
“You will see the worst side of me if you do that, Angel.”
“If it is so then I won’t attend the party at all.”
“You will attend.”
“Really? I would like to see you try and make me.”, His brown eyes went from brown to golden again. He threw the tray and the plates again, only the difference was that, this time those were empty. He stood up and I looked at the ground shaking. He turned on his heel, ripping the door open and slamming it shut.
