Malia's POV

If Ronan thought of my question as random or unusual, he didn't show it. Or maybe it wasn't as unusual as I thought.

“Of course he was there but he showed up pretty late,” he replied and then went on to mutter something about Derek taking him for granted just because they were quite close.

My thoughts churned in my head at his answer. It could mean that Derek had been in the library with Lila.

The book must have been a distraction to lure me away from my seat which was not too far from the door.

Or what if I was just overthinking this? Probably he had come to take a book from the library and his bracelet had fallen.

Ronan shook me gently and I gave a start.

His eyebrows were knitted together in concern. “Is something wrong? I've been saying your name.”

“It's nothing,” I replied with a small smile.

“Indeed. That was why you looked so lost earlier,” he scoffed.

I thought of something else I could say to erase his concern about what I had been worrying about.

    Malia’s POVMy heart skipped a bit as Ryder strolled into the conservatory. I heard Ronan's sharp intake of breath. “Alpha Ryder, we were not expecting you,” he greeted calmly. “I wasn't expecting to see you two in here either,” he replied with a smile. “The beta has taken it upon himself to take me to all of the interesting rooms in the palace. I spent a part of this morning and afternoon in the grand library,” I said to Ryder. “That's so kind of you, brother,” he replied without taking his eyes off me.“What's he doing here?” I asked Ronan. “It beats me. My brother is not a fan of flowers,” he replied. Ryder's eyes which betrayed his amusement moved back and forth between me and Ronan. “You two realise that I'm right here and can hear you, right?” He asked. I tried not to focus on how much his T-shirt emphasized his broad shoulders and well-defined chest. “It seems you do not like flowers, so what brings you here? I'm just curious,” I said. “Well, I'm as curious as you ar

    Malia's POV“You bitch,” Lila screeched from behind us. I froze in alarm for a moment. To my dismay, Ryder didn't let go of me. I dug my nails hard into his side and he instantly let me go.I moved to stand behind him because she looked like she wanted to rip my heart out of its cage. Ryder rubbed the back of his neck. “How are you doing, Lila? He asked. She scoffed. “Are you kidding me right now?”Her eyes had narrowed to slits and her hands were clenched into fists. “This is well beneath you, Ryder. She's nothing. How could you allow her to seduce you?” she demanded in fury. I wanted to protest. If anyone was the seducer it was the Alpha and not me. But I remained silent. There was no need adding gasoline to fire. “Lila, please stay calm,” he pleaded, walking slowly towards her.She looked like she was going to explode.Immediately he got close enough to her, she drew back her hand and landed a slap on his cheek. I gasped. “Hopefully that is enough to bring you back to your

    Malia's POV“Ronan, you know how Lila can be super dramatic,” I said. I didn't think he was going to take it so well if I told him that Ryder had his hands on my bum, or worse, that I had loved every bit of it. I saw his jaw clench before he closed his eyes and took in a deep breath. “I'll take your word for it, Malia,” he said. I gave him a bright smile.“The troop that came here to search for you are gone,” he announced.My heart skipped a beat. “How can you be so sure?” I asked. “Our patrol team at the boundary saw them leaving very early this morning. So you wouldn't have to spend the entire week indoors after all,” he said. I gave a tiny shriek of excitement. “But I still think you should spend the whole of tomorrow indoors, you know, just to be on the safer side,” he advised.“I think I can survive one more day,” I said with a grin. “Come on. Today wasn't so bad, was it? You got to see the conservatory which you immediately declared your best place, and also the library,”

    Zade's POV“So what do we do now? We've checked all the packs in this country and we've checked with all the airports. One thing we're sure of is that she's still here and she doesn't want to be found,” my beta said to me. I rested my face in my palms and tried not to scream out in frustration. My pack was in danger and it was all my fault. “Zade, I have a suggestion,” he said. “Let's hear it,” I replied. “Why don't we involve others in this search?” He asked. “What do you mean?” I wondered. “We should discuss with the heads of the other packs about placing a price on her. Whoever finds her is going to be well rewarded. People will be more motivated to look out for her if they stand to gain a lot,” he reasoned. I suddenly felt hopeful. “That's brilliant. Why didn't we think about doing this before?” I wondered. “Sometimes fear and stress affect our thinking and our ability to handle things effectively. Which is why I'm suggesting now that the troops should be allowed to return

    Zade's POVI raised an eyebrow at her strong disagreement.“Why can't we? It's the most reasonable thing to do,” I said. “People of the other packs will start to dig deeper into Malia. What if they find out about her curse? She's going to be so devastated by the stigma,” she replied. My forehead creased in confusion. “Since when did you start caring about Malia's feelings?” I asked.“Please, I'm not a monster,” she replied, her face a mask of annoyance. “I didn't mean that and you know it. And, don't worry, I don't think anyone's going to dig deeper about who she is or anything. They're just going to be focused on the bounty on her head,” I said. Her eyes suddenly became sad. “What now?” I asked. “What if when you find her, you're also required to marry her? You can't have two Luna's,” she answered.“You don't have to be worried about something like that happening. The pack has accepted you and they believe you're carrying the next Alpha,” I replied pointing to her protruding be

    Malia's POVAfter Penelope left my room to go attend to something else, I mulled over her question. What was I going to do if I proved that Lila and Derek were having an affair? If Ryder found out about it, it was going to make it easier for him to call off their engagement. Well, one thing was certain. He wasn't going to find out from me. I wasn't a fan of Lila but still, I wasn't going to be the one to snitch on her. I thought about asking Derek directly but waved the thought away. Although he was my friend, I knew he was flat out going to deny it, probably to protect Lila. Since I was all alone and starting to get bored, I picked up the book and began to read. This is the thing about reading on your bed. You're bound to sleep off. I awoke in the middle of the night, and as expected, I was hungry. Not too hungry that I couldn't ignore it though. But my throat was parched and the water jug in my room was empty. “Great,” I muttered and walked towards my door. I shut it quietl

I sighed. “You're unbelievable Penelope. I'm going back to bed.” I headed towards my room and wasn't surprised when she fell in step beside me. “Ronan isn't going to like this if he finds out. He'd be so heartbroken,” she said in a small voice. I raised an eyebrow in surprise. “I thought you'd be happy to discover that I'm not into him. And besides I've made it clear to him. We can only be friends.” “It doesn't matter. He's still going to be heartbroken. And it's going to be more painful for him because the other man ha

It adds to my charm,” he said smugly. I scoffed. “It only makes you more annoying to me.”He chuckled. “You're in denial, Malia.”“Whatever.”“But don't you think we're not supposed to be walking together so soon, after what happened yesterday? Lila will not be pleased,” I said. “Well, if it makes you feel better or less afraid, Lila is not in the palace. She's on her way to her uncle's pack as we speak.”“It still doesn't matter. What if she has asked someone to spy on us?” I asked, my voice laced with worry. He stopped and turned around. “I don't see or hear anybody following us. Trust me I'd know. That's why the Moon Goddess blessed us with these abilities,” he answered. “Indeed,” I murmured, painfully aware of my curse. Not being able to transform into a wolf also comes with not being able

  • Desired By Two Alphas and One Beta   The End

    MALIA’S POV Zade came to see me a week later. I had tried not to look excited at all when Penelope had come to tell me that he was waiting for me in the conference room. “Or should I ask him to come up to your chambers?” she queried and I gave her a withering look. “Oooh. How scary. I just hope he is not scared of you at all,” she said. She frowned when I didn't immediately get up from my bed but returned to the book that I had been reading before she came to inform me about my mate’s presence. After the incident, I had taken to reading books. I had gone to the library to check for any book that had to do with the witches of the Alfea tribe. I wanted to learn how to use my powers at will and I think that I was already getting a hang of it. The other day, I had managed to make Penelope’s dress wet when she had dared to make fun of my voice. We had decided to join a music class just for the fun of it and I realized that it was best I left singing alone. I also learned that pl

    MALIA’S POV After making both Ryder and Victoria as weak as I could with extra help from Tommy(thank the Goddess the paralysis spell was temporary), I had to render them even more helpless by taking away Ryder’s wolf with the same spell that Victoria had used. I didn't even have to do any spells to take away her magic, she protested weakly when I lay my hand on her chest as though she already knew what was going to happen. I felt her power leave her body and go into mine with such force that I nearly lost consciousness. When it was over, I hurried to Zade’s side as fast as my weak body could carry me. Tommy was already by his side performing CPR to keep him awake. “This isn't going to work,” he said with fear in his eyes. “He needs his wolf right now or else, he is going to die. You can return his wolf to him, right?” I shook my head. I didn't know how but I was going to try everything in my power. He wasn't going to die on my watch. I bent my head close to his face and swipe

  • Desired By Two Alphas and One Beta   At Your Mercy

    MALIA’S POV I must have fallen asleep again even though I had desperately tried to stay awake. Victoria had been forcing some sort of liquid down my throat for reasons best known to her and it had been making me fall asleep. I had vaguely overheard Ryder speaking to Zade. I prayed to the Moon Goddess that he should not fall for their trap but I knew that even if the Moon Goddess wanted to save him and prevent him from taking the bait, he was still going to find a way to come and save me. For the first time, my wolf hoped he wouldn't come. We were well aware that Ryder just wanted to kill him and claim his pack for himself. I lost count of the number of times I had wept because of Ryder’s betrayal. Never in my life have I felt so used and totally stupid. I wondered if Penelope had noticed my suspicious disappearance. And even if she did and discovered that Ryder was behind it, I doubted she would be able to do anything about it. He could easily threaten her with the lives of her ki

  • Desired By Two Alphas and One Beta   Trap

    ZADE’S POV There was no way Victoria could have broken out of that house and killed about five of the highly trained guards I had placed there to prevent her from leaving and any person other than me and our son from going in. It wasn't just possible. I knew she was strong but she wasn't trained and didn't even stand a chance against one of the guards. So how had she been able to kill all five? I had immediately sent some of my soldiers to go after her when I discovered what had happened and was still waiting for them to return. “I think we should keep an eye on your son at all times. She loves him so much and might want to come pick him up. We can catch her that way,” Tommy was saying. I still couldn't get past the deaths of those guards. It wasn't just about the fact that they were killed but how they were killed too. It must have taken someone with a lot more physical strength and bigger size than Victoria. “There is no way she could have done it all alone. She had help,”

  • Desired By Two Alphas and One Beta   Have Him Destroyed At Last

    MALIA’S POV After skimming through the pages of about five books, we were able to learn a few things about the witches of the Alfea tribe. Like Alice had told us, there could only be one Alfea witch in a lineage and I was the chosen one in mine. The age at which the witch may discover her powers is different for everyone. But this discovery would be at a period in her life when she was going to need it. We were the most powerful of all the witches and were never supposed to act in rage because it could lead to the loss of many lives. Penelope and I had read open-mouthed, the story of an Alfea witch who had set a whole village on fire with her mind just because she had thought the King had something to do with the death of her only child. But she found out at the end of the day that her child had been killed by her best friend. “Well, now we have to get you to an anger management class,” Penelope said. I rolled my eyes. “I do not need it. I know how to control my emotions,”

  • Desired By Two Alphas and One Beta   The Alfea Tribe

    MALIA’S POV While we were on our way back to the palace, Lucien warned us not to talk about my newly discovered identity as a witch. Penelope was not even supposed to tell Damien and he was not even going to tell Margaret. “If so many people know about it, it might cause them to be hostile towards you and some may even exploit you to their own advantage,” he had explained. I had so much to learn. I didn’t know the first thing about being a witch. I was just even getting used to being a proper werewolf. “You are not going to keep on wearing that hat forever are you?” Penelope queried. “I don’t know,” I replied, looking at Lucien for guidance. He shrugged. “Well, people are going to wonder why their Luna is suddenly covering her hair all of the time. It is going to make them more curious and when they discover that your hair colour has changed, they are going to be even more curious about why you had chosen to hide it. And trust me, they are going to find out.” “So I guess I

    MALIA’S POV Penelope took off my hat without my permission as soon as we entered her chambers and Lucien gasped. “It is pretty, right?” she asked her father-in-law with a smile and I rolled my eyes. “That is not the point here, Penelope,” I said. She giggled. “I am so sorry but I can not just help but say it,” she replied. “Do you know if you have any witches in your ancestry?” Lucien asked. My eyes narrowed in suspicion. I had a feeling where this was leading and I was not sure I liked it. “I do not know. My mother never made mention of it. Neither did my father,” I replied. He was thoughtful for a moment. “It is better that we confirm what I have in mind. I think we should go to the witch that the Alpha took you to, to have your curse lifted,” he suggested. Penelope bounced in excitement. “Do you think she is a witch? Oh, I have always wanted to have a witch as a friend.” Lucien and I both rolled our eyes. “Are you not supposed to be taking care of my grandkids instea

    MALIA’S POV There was nothing as sweet as your own independence and freedom. This I realized in the first few days of being alone in my room without Ryder in my space. He was sorely mistaken if he felt that giving me space was going to strengthen whatever attraction I had left for him. The more I stayed away from him, the more the attraction died and my wolf was beside herself with happiness. She was still insisting that I leave the palace and reunite with our mate. But I just didn't want any man in my space. I was dreading the day Ryder would ask me to return to his chambers. Maybe that was when I was eventually going to decide to leave him, go somewhere else and start afresh. The first time I heard him sneak out of his chambers, I thought perhaps, that he was going to his study to work overnight. He had done it a couple of times when I was still sleeping in his chambers. The same thing happened the next day and then the next and I began to get curious. I decided to ask him a

  • Desired By Two Alphas and One Beta   Nowhere To Be Found

    ZADE’S POV I returned to my Pack with mixed feelings. When I had decided to go meet my step-brother for help, I had known that there was a very high possibility that he wasn't going to help me but I just had to give it a shot for the sake of my Pack. What I had not been expecting, was to see my mate there. And the worst of all was that she was already married to that monster. I banged my desk hard in anger just as my Beta came in. He looked somewhat pissed that I hadn't allowed him to accompany me to my step-brother’s Pack but I didn't care at that moment. His expression changed to one of concern when he saw how pissed I was. “I take it things didn't go well at your brother’s Pack,” he said as he took his seat in front of the desk. “He is no brother of mine,” I spat out. “Woah! Okay, please just calm down and tell me what happened.” His mouth hung open as I told him how I had seen Malia and how she was already married to him. It took him a while to recover. “Then why d
