CHAPTER 12

ARAMIAH

I swallowed hard, unable to decipher what the words of the guards meant.

I was no longer so eager to leave. Just by the mere mention of Malakai's name, fear gripped me tightly.

Unbeknownst to me, the guards were still standing at the spot. I had expected that they would have left after delivering their message.

But I guess I was all wrong. They stood still by the door like detectives waiting to receive orders from their masters.

I shot them a glare. They returned it back with a hateful smirk. They looked visibly impatient at this point.

“Please Luna Miah. We don't have all day.”

I hastened up what I was doing. These godforsaken guards were also part of the problems I faced in the palace.

They gave me no breathing space.

The thought of facing Malakai again after avoiding him earlier, gave me goosebumps.

I wish there was a way the ground would swallow me up and spit me out when they were finally gone.

The guards were growing impatient. I could sense it from their fac

    CHAPTER 13ARAMIAHI froze at the spot. All of my being seemed to be numb all of a sudden.I kept pondering on what Malakai had just said. How was I supposed to pay for the crime of someone else, knowing fully well that I had no hand in it?I had spoken against the battle to the masterminders, yet they went ahead to go against my wish.And now I was the one to write off their wrongs on their behalf?Of course! I had no say in this. Malakai had already stated the rule. Even before now, I had been facing the heat of his retaliation.Malakai could have also arrested my uncle when he came to pick me in his carrier. But he had spared him because he thought he was my father.If only he knew my father was long dead and he also had a hand in what happened to his pack.Unfortunately, I was the scapegoat to pay the ransom on behalf of everyone. Malakai squinted his eyes. “Get back into your room.” He was not facing me, so I thought he was probably speaking to one of the maids.It then dawned o

    CHAPTER 14ARAMIAHI couldn't wait to get out of bed the next morning. My lips yearned to speak to someone about my discovery - probably one of the maids whom I had made friends with.I was literally unable to sleep. Fear coursed through my veins as I had a weird imagination of the scarred lady coming into my room.The scars on her face were really scary ones. Anyone would take to their heels just at the sight of her.After some minutes of pondering and whiling away in my thoughts, sleep gradually perched into my eyes.I had the most cozy sleep time ever.***What woke me up was a loud knock. I wondered who could be so mannerless to knock on my door at this hour of the night.Something in me urged me to check what the time was. I was surprised when I glanced into the wall clock and found out that it was already morning.Holy fuck!I let out a wild gasp and wrapped the sheets on my bare skin. I was naked. I needed something to shield my nakedness.The problem continued when the knock

Orion wouldn't stop staring at me.“What could that be?” Their voices collided with each other. They asked the question at the same time.I couldn't be more happy. Their show of eagerness to what I had to say only got me more fulfilled than ever.I smiled quietly. “I saw a really scary figure last night. She had no companion with her. No one to help her.”Their mouths went wide open. “Who could that be?” “I really don't know. She was backing me when I saw her. Then when she turned, I discovered that she had a huge scar on her face which distorted her face completely.”Orion and Zena looked puzzled. They held their mouths in fear. They kept staring at me for a few minutes without saying a word.I sensed there was trouble. They were suddenly acting strange.“What's going on? Why are you two acting this way?” I was yet to understand why t

    CHAPTER 16MALAKAI'S POVI hurried towards her and gripped her by the neck. She came back to life as she began to gasp for air.“Please.. I know nothing about her. I've never heard of anyone with such features.”These were her words.Pathetic!How pathetic she was to think that I would be fooled by her lies. How pathetic she was to think that I was never going to find out that she went against my orders.I clearly suspected this from the moment I walked into her room and saw her breathing fast. That was when I knew that she was hiding something.But I wasn't sure what it was. I needed to have solid evidence to use against her.And now that I had more than enough evidence against her, she wouldn't dare deny it.“I ask again. What do you know about the scarred lady whom you claimed to have seen last night?”I could see her lips curve in fear. I must have succeeded in trapping her with the question. She remained silent - a singular act of hers which I despised to the core.I didn't want

    CHAPTER 17MALAKAI I turned back to see Kalvin holding onto my wrist firmly. His eyes tinged with curiosity.“Alpha Kai, please I need to have a word with you.”“Is it about Aramiah?... If it is, then I'm not in the mood.”Kalvin let out a little smile. “Of course not, Alpha Kai. I'm not here because of Aramiah. We really need to discuss.”He looked nothing like he was joking. His voice carried on a serious tone. I could no longer hesitate.“Alright, what is it about?” I pulled my hand away from his grip. His face spelt urgency.“Can we discuss in your chambers?”I was drawn aback for a while. What could it be that he wanted to discuss with me which intends that we go into my chambers?I shot him a confused glare. I hesitated for a moment before I finally gave in.“Okay, let's go.”I went ahead of him as we proceeded towards my chambers. The guards who stood by the door bowed as we walked into the chambers.We were ushered in by one of the palace maids who always made sure that the

    CHAPTER 18MALAKAI I suddenly stopped on my tracks. I walked close to her door and leaned one ear close to be sure the sound really came from her room.I wasn't wrong after all. She was the one singing.But there was something about her song that almost made me tear up. The sound coming from her lips was a really sorrowful one. And the lyrics? So relatable and heart breaking.She was clearly going through the worst times of her life. Anytime she felt this way, instead of pouring out her tears, she preferred to pour out her mind in a song.I could clearly feel her pain. I couldn't watch her keep on suffering this way. Aramiah would definitely pay for raising back the past hurts she felt years ago.The sound soon effaced from my ears.All I could hear was the chirping of birds from a close distance. I sensed trouble.I leaned close to the door once again, and it only dawned on me that she had stopped singing.Somehow, I was greatly disturbed.I began to hit my fists hard against the

    CHAPTER 19MALAKAI I watched her tremble hard on the bed. She kept moving backwards, away from me.She disgusted me with every step she made. “I'm sure you are not deaf, Luna.” I forced myself to smile. It was never genuine.She managed to raise her head a bit. Our eyes met.She was still gripping the sheets tight. “What have I done this time around? I'm sorry if I have upset you in any way, your highness.” Her voice quivered with fear. She just had to beg me ahead of time. But I was not moved by her pleading. Instead, it made me even more aggravated.Her pleas were definitely not going to solve anything.“I see you have finally turned deaf.” I hopped onto the bed and began to crawl towards her.She remained at a spot as I approached her. She was probably confused about what to do next.She rubbed her palms together, tension filled her face. Drops of sweat began to trickle out of her face despite how well aerated the room was.She looked like she was going to pass out at the next m

    CHAPTER 20MALAKAI Watching her lay comfortably on the bed made me restless. She was supposed to be up and responding to my orders.She was sold to me for crying out loud!Why would the pack doctor even walk into my palace just to spill trash?But somehow, I found myself getting melted by her heartwarming appearance.‘I will let her rest just for today. She had better get all the rest she can.’ I thought to myself and hissed inaudibly. Aramiah was still very fast asleep. None of the sounds I made seemed to get into her ears.Irene was certainly the one who had brought me this sudden chaos. Aramiah wouldn't be in this condition if she never behaved in a violent manner to her.I was still very mad at her. ***The day for the ball party drew close each passing day. Aramiah was now fit to do whatever on her own.She no longer needed any aid before she would be able to perform any tasks or get up from bed.I hadn't been happier in ages.I was just preparing for the meeting with the part

    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

I couldn't believe the sight of the person lying on bed with me.My eyes were certainly not deceiving me!“Alpha Malakai?!” I unconsciously yelled out his name, still finding it difficult to understand how he had succeeded to get into my room.Despite the loud voice with which I had called him, he still made no attempt to move his body.Fear engulfed my whole being.I had never seen Malakai in this mood before. He looked really vulnerable and visibly weak.I was drawn between waking him up to find out why he had come to my room, or just leaving him to have a good sleep.I knew certainly that something wasn't right with him. Leaving him in that position would only

    CHAPTER 33MALAKAI Irene couldn't contain her sudden happiness. Of course I knew exactly how to do what she liked.Her face lit with smiles as she jumped on my body. “I can't wait!” Woah!This was the first time I was seeing her so excited. I could never have believed that she could be so full of life.I accepted her in my warm embrace and stroked her hair gently.I planted a mild kiss on her forehead. “Okay.. okay, you need to go to bed right now. Tomorrow is another hectic day.”I stared into her scarred face and all I could see was genuine happiness sprouting from her looks.All these just because I had made mention of Kalvin! Irene dashed into her room as soon as I said those words. We waved each other goodbye as she took her leave.***The next day fast approached. I was still shocked to discover that it was already morning when I opened my eyes and looked around everywhere.The whole room was now very bright, the sun stealing its way in through the window.I shot a glance at

    CHAPTER 32MALAKAI I walked into the room only to meet Aramiah in such an unusual manner. She was standing very close to the wall. She couldn't move, her gaze was just focused on the door.Taking a closer shot at her, I discovered that she was still fully dressed. This was very unusual. She was supposed to be in her usual pajamas or nighttime robes, but that was not the case.“Where are you coming from?” I darted close to her and sniffed her hair into my nose.She was visibly shaken. “I…I… I didn't go anywhere.” She finally muttered, still glued to a spot.I knew to a fault that she was lying to me. Her hair smelt of the wind, to crown it all up, she was fully dressed like she was just returning from an outing.There was certainly no point of her lying to me, but she still chose to.I let out a little smirk while bringing my face close to hers. “Are you really gonna stand there and lie to me? Even when you know that I hate lies passionately?” My voice etched with discernment. I mad

    CHAPTER 31ARAMIAH I noticed the sudden expression on Evelyn's face as soon as Malakai was done eating.Her eyes carried on a hint of jealousy. She walked out of the room without saying a word to anyone.Before Malakai could call her back, she had already gone a far distance.I was tempted to ask Malakai some questions concerning Evelyn, but I didn't have enough courage to do so. I just found myself nibbling my nails gently.Malakai let out a little smile. I perceived that he was already in a good mood, hence the only opportunity I had to ask him what I wanted from him.“Who is Evelyn to you? Your maid?” My words sounded muffled up. I wasn't sure if I had done the right thing by questioning him about Evelyn.Just as I expected, he ignored me completely. I felt greatly embarrassed by his silence, at the same time, happy for the fact that he didn't flare up at my question.What was I even thinking? He would probably be wondering why I was suddenly meddling in his affairs.Shortly after

    CHAPTER 30ARAMIAH MAKING THE ALPHA'S MEAL.“Everyone in this palace is aware of the fact that Evelyn was supposed to be Malakai's mate and not you.”Mate?!My eyes narrowed in uncertainty. I was still finding it really hard to understand what Zena was saying.How can it be possible that Malakai had another mate asides me? Her words still sounded like a joke to me.No wonder Evelyn was acting all bossy before me. No wonder she had tried to bully me earlier. “How about the Alpha? Does he like her in return?” Zena shot an unbelievable glare at me. She smacked her lips together. “Of course not! You and I know that Alpha Malakai is not so obsessed with ladies. He just wants to have a taste of them all and dump them afterwards.”There was a hint of sincerity in Zena's voice. I soon found myself nodding at her reply. Now I was gradually beginning to understand the whole attributes of Malakai.Hold on a second! Does that mean he also sees me as one of his sex toys who he would end up du

    CHAPTER 29ARAMIAH Her eyes burnt with fury as she glared at me complacently. She bit her lower lip in such a seductive manner, leaving Malakai tied to her charming looks.I understood exactly what was going on, but I pretended not to - for the sake of my sanity.I turned my gaze to the other side of the room. Before I knew what was happening, a loud groan spewed from Malakai's lips.“Let me be, woman. I'm certainly not in for all these right now.” Malakai's voice dropped with resolution.Turning my gaze back at them, I discovered that they were no longer in each other's grips. Malakai had obviously disbanded himself from the drama.He let out a loud hiss as he headed to the door. He stopped right in front of the door, turning his gaze at Evelyn. “I wouldn't appreciate it if I still meet you here by the time I return. A room has been prepared for you by the guards, you should do the needful.”He twisted the door handle open and walked out without sparing any more words.Evelyn coul

I could sense danger at the whole drama that unfolded. My mind was far gone as I wandered into the world of endless thoughts.My heart thumped with a pause as I heard the door knob twist open. I hurriedly drifted back to where I was sitting.Malakai's face met mine as he walked in. All he did was laugh mysteriously. There was no hint of emotions in his face.He turned to the guards behind him.“Get her out of here. Take her into the manor.”“We will do just that, your highness.” The guards bowed and made their way into the dungeon.I felt an ounce of fresh air as soon as I was brought out of the sickling dungeon.Once again, I felt like I had just been relieved of a heavy burden.The guards held me in either hand. They threw me into the manor and locked the doors firmly.For a split second, I had the opportunity to stretch
