"Strip," He ordered in a harsh tone, his eyes glued to my dress. "Take off every bit of it." My hand reflectively went around my shoulders, and I tried to step away from him, hitting the hard wall instead. I winced and slid to the floor, unsure what to do next. "W-what?" I asked, stunned, or at least pretending to be. Anything to buy me time. What did he mean by strip? Like, get naked?! Me?! I blinked slowly, stunned by his audacity. "Are you deaf, Princess?" Malakai crouched to my level, his elbows resting on his thighs as he leaned a little closer. His hands trailed my chin, down to my neck, and my breathing stifled. "You have nothing to be afraid of." I must have misunderstood why he was called the devil's vessel. It wasn't for his cruelty. It was for his charms. * Aramiah Vernon, daughter of Evergloom Pack, walks in on her mate cheating on her with her cousin! Immediately, he brutally rejects her and she's left with a shattered heart, vowing to give up on romance, but that only lasted a few hours. In an unexpected turn of events, Aramiah is claimed by a ruthless beast, the Alpha of Alphas and the most feared man of all Kingdoms— Malakai Kings— ON THE SAME DAY! Love was never in the books for a man like Malakai, he needed a tool, someone to carry on his legacy, and that is all he intends to make out of her. Aramiah is good breeding material, not to mention the daughter of the pack he heavily despises. He can't wait to be her personal hell.

Well, I never believed he could be so cruel to his own beta not until this very day.What more could I do anyway?I raised my hands in surrender, letting the guards do just what they had been ordered by the Alpha.I smiled inwardly, blaming him less for his actions. I knew where all these were coming from.I surely knew this was about Evelyn and what she wished to achieve from Malakai.I knew definitely well that she was only doing all these to turn Malakai's mind against Aramiah. But I never thought she was going to do all that at the detriment of her own brother's safety.She had just dragged me into her mess and I surely wouldn't give her the privilege to keep doing so.I was just so happy that Aramiah had escaped earlier to God knows where. I definitely didn't want her to go through the same torture I was about to go through.As if she had been reading my mind, Aramiah climbed down the stairs. She went on her knees in
CHAPTER 42ARAMIAH Malakai was yet to get his gaze off me. “You know I've been meaning to ask you.. what is your secret on the type of strength you possess?”“I don't understand. What do you mean by that?” My eyes rolled with uncertainty as I looked at him. He remained silent, staring at me even more. A feeling of confusion etched through my veins. My legs suddenly became unsteady on the floor, a feeling of unease taking over my being.I tried to keep my gaze away from him but it was just so difficult. And he also wouldn't stop staring.I began to feel awkward, like there was something unusual around me. Why was he staring at me in that manner without saying anything?“What?” I quizzed in a soft tone. I would keep asking if that would make him say something at least.“Umm.. it's nothing, Aramiah. I just –”He moved closer and tugged my hair in his hands. “I really admire your strength. Despite whatever I do to you, you keep finding a way to adjust.”He pulled me close to himself onc
CHAPTER 41ARAMIAH"Are you okay?" Malakai rubbed my hands in a soothing manner as he looked into my eyes.I managed to nod my head a little. "Y–Yes, I'm fine." I stuttered. I knew I wasn't fine one bit.But what difference was it going to make if I spoke to him about it?My whole body felt weak and broken, the memories of our intimacy just dawning on me."I need to leave."I turned to the door and walked out before Malakai could stop me. I couldn't shake off the feeling of disappointment which engulfed me.I had just brought myself low once again to be used as a sex tool for Malakai even when I was still upset at him for humiliating me by bringing in his new concubines.It was just a weird and repeated scenario. I found myself going back to Malakai's arms even when I had promised myself to stay far away from him.It would only be right if someone told me exactly what's wrong with me, because obviously, I was suddenly beginning to act more dumb than I could ever imagine.Now I hate m
CHAPTER 40ARAMIAH I was madly upset with Malakai for pulling me in that manner. If not for one thing, I would have used my fists on him.“Aramiah, what is wrong with you? Why are you doing this to yourself?” Malakai wouldn't stop questioning me like I was his little kid.He addressed me with so much recklessness which only got me more and more upset.I shot a furious glare at him. It only took the calmness in me to control the anger that was welling up within me.“You keep asking me what is wrong with me when you and I know you are the only problem we have here.”“Really? How am I the problem here?” Malakai quizzed as he drew closer to where I was, pinning his hand against the wall, just above my head.His body was barely an inch away from mine. I could feel his dick getting hard in his pants.I pulled myself out of his grip and turned to leave once again. “I'm definitely not ready for this. Let me be!” I yelled at him.Before I knew what was happening, I felt a hard pull on my wri
CHAPTER 39MALAKAI I could as well pretend all I want that I wasn't upset but I knew fully well that was just a big lie.This time around, I had not just seen Kalvin with Aramiah, but I had also caught him touching Aramiah.Jealousy surged through my veins as I walked past them. Even after the series of warnings I had given to Aramiah, she still went ahead to disobey my order.The two ladies could also attest to the sudden switch in my countenance.“Is anything the matter, Alpha Malakai?” One of the ladies quizzed. She shot a puzzled glance at me.I quickly shook my head to wave that thought away. “Oh come on. I'm totally fine. Let's just go and begin the meeting.”I wrapped my hands around their shoulders respectively. That was just one way to convince them further that there was no problem of any sort.At the meeting hall, I found myself still not concentrating on what was being discussed.I could literally see their lips moving simultaneously, but I couldn't hear even a single wor
CHAPTER 38ARAMIAH I still couldn't place my hands around what was happening. Malakai was acting strange all of a sudden. What was he even thinking when he went out to pick concubines for himself?Does that mean I was not good enough for him? And why does he even have to shove it in my face by trying to make me an object of ridicule after the taunting encounter?My heart was restless.I was left in the solace of Kalvin. I needed to hear everything from him because I knew definitely well that Malakai would not hesitate to explain things to him.As a result of the restlessness of my mind, I found sleep as a big chore. My eyes felt too heavy that I couldn't even blink them one bit.As soon as the early morning sun came out of its place, I quietly tiptoed out of the room where I and Malakai stayed. I sneaked into Kalvin's room gently.Luckily enough, he was still asleep when I walked in. I sat at the edge of his bed, watching his innocent face.I couldn't just wait for the moment when h
Chapter 37Malakai My eyes rolled with disbelief as I saw Kalvin standing so close to Aramiah. As if that was not enough, she had his jacket wrapped around her waist.Everyone's gaze was now on me. Well, I didn't care. All I wanted to know was the exact reason why Aramiah had Kalvin's jacket on her waist.Surprisingly, she seemed so comfortable even with the jackets. I walked up to where Aramiah was, staring into her eyes deeply. “What's going on here?”Evelyn suddenly came out of nowhere. She closed up the gap between Aramiah and I.“This maid here stained my dress. I was only scolding her and asking her why she had done it, but Aramiah stepped out of her room and began to threaten me.” She said those words, pointing accusing fingers at Zena.Same stories! Evelyn just had to stop already!Well, she was just the least of my troubles. I would definitely sort her out. For now, all I needed to do was to tackle the problem I was already faced with.Kalvin kept his eyes away from me. He
CHAPTER 36ARAMIAH ‘What trip could he be talking about this time around?’Kai never ceases to amaze me. Now I was even scared to question him on what trip he was about to embark on.He sounded really resolute when he made those statements. I sensed a lot of determination in his voice.“H.. how long is this trip going to last?” I stuttered gently.I couldn't believe I just asked him that. Where the hell did I ever amass so much courage?To crown it all, Malakai didn't waste any time to respond. Although, he still sounded mean as he has always been.He let out a sly smile as he stared at me. “You have nothing to be worried about darling. I will be out for just a day, nothing more.”“Interesting!” I sighed at how swift his reply came. Now I was convinced to an extent that he would definitely pay some attention to what next I had to ask him.I summoned up enough courage to look him in the eyes. “And what exactly is this trip about?”Malakai shot an impatient glare at me.More like it!
CHAPTER 35MALAKAI I rolled my hands quietly as my eyes drooled open. My eyes still felt very weak from the amount of sleep I just had.But something didn't seem right about the bed I was lying on. The whole environment seemed somewhat different.Just when my mind was endlessly troubled about where I was, I turned my gaze backwards only to see Aramiah lying beside me with a duvet covering her body.What the fuck?!I got out of the bed with speed. It instantly dawned on me why I had felt so weak since I woke up.How could I have possibly fallen into Aramiah's trap once again? What was this thing that kept dragging me to her?Why was I always being so vulnerable around her?I felt so weak and helpless as I battled with the endless thoughts flooding my mind.Once again, Aramiah had succeeded in luring me into her charms! Fuck!She surely knows just how to make me look so stupid. This was just the most embarrassing situation I had ever experienced in my whole life. How could I have allo
CHAPTER ONEARAMIAHAramiah Vernon, the princess without a wolf. Or you could call me what all the others did. Pathetic.Useless. Worthless. You could also call me the child of woe— to add a little bit of spice to the undying ridicule. I wasn't different from a speck of dust, or one out of ten thousand leaves on a tree.Ordinary wasn't quite the word to place me because ordinary could mean good, but all my life? Bad was the only word I'd been nurtured. It hovered over me like the darkest shadows.The sky was heavy with promises of rainfall, and I walked faster, feeling the cool wind on my face.It was the first day of the new month, and I was filled with so much happiness as I walked happily to my Azareth's house— my mate.It had been two full moons since I discovered that Azareth was my fated mate. Not only that, he was the only man who ever made me feel like I mattered. I'd been stuck in the shadows for so many years that finding Azareth was the best thing that happened to me. My g...
