MALIK

Breakfast was almost ready when Elizabeth entered the kitchen. I struggled to keep calm as I recalled last night’s events. She was asleep when I snuck out of her room early this morning. I had to admit I could only sleep with her in the room. I flipped the pancakes, my body reacting to her presence. 

Elizabeth was dressed. She wore a pencil dress and block heels, adding an inch or two to her height. Yet, her head only came up to my shoulder. I said nothing as she skipped to the sink for a glass of water. Since she was here, I dished the pancake into two plates and placed hers on the same spot we ate dinner. She hadn’t said a word to me yet, only stared out the window with the glass in her hand. I chose to break the quiet.

“Good morning, Elizabeth.” Her eyes flitted in my direction for a second. “Sleep well?” 

No response except for the loud sip from her cup. I massaged the back of my head and offered her a thin smile. This was not good.

    MALIKA knock on the door alerted me of my mate’s presence before she entered my home office. Elizabeth smiled, and my lips automatically copied the gesture. I reclined on the wall, drinking her in as she bridged the gap. She was still in the dress from this morning but minus the shoes, and the sight did silly things to me. I was trying to be careful. The full moon was almost here. My mood swings were growing worse. I mustn’t do anything silly to tip the balance. But my wolf didn’t care about the rules. If Otis got a chance to have Elizabeth naked underneath him with his cock buried in her pussy, he would take it. Not like I wouldn’t appreciate that, but it wasn’t the right time. He was far too emotionally and sexually starved to listen to my bullshit about waiting for Waylen’s acceptance, so I had to hold on tighter to the control gradually slipping from my palms. “Hey,” Elizabeth said. Elizabeth hadn’t wiped her makeup of only lipgloss,

    MALIK“Is that it?” Governor Kane asked. He skipped to the last page of the file I dropped on his table when I entered and flung it across the wall. The staple pin holding the sheets together was the only reason they didn’t scatter on the floor. I clenched my fists at the small of my back as he stood, his fingers denting the leather of his desk. “You took a month to prepare that preposterous crap! Arrant nonsense.”A lock of blond hair fell to his forehead, and he slapped it back in place. He pinned me with an icy, disappointing stare. His chest heaved, and he tugged his tie loose.“Otis, Otis, what’s going on?”“I prepared the report—”“Uh uh. No. That was not a report.” He pushed back his chair and made his way to the connected bar. After pouring himself a glass of scotch, he returned to his desk and sat. Minutes passed as he sipped his drink and nodded to him

    MALIK“What?”“Her.” He stabbed the picture on his desk. It was of a human. My phone beeped with a message containing her address. She had no name but a number. No surprise. She was just a subject among many I had killed and would continue to do so in the future. Guilt tasted bitter, and I almost threw up on myself. “She was at the party, and last night, she was spotted leaving the hospital. Guess why?”“Why?”“For a pregnancy test, Malik.”Great.“We cannot kill a pregnant human.”“The good news is, she’s not pregnant. I know the rules, Son. But she might be lucky next time, and we wouldn’t want that, right?” he asked. His finger dragged across the folder on his desk. I could only see one picture from the bunch, but I suspected all of them to be the guests at Waylen’s party. “Do it tonight.&rd

    Life as Malik’s assistant was easier. Having been without an assistant for long, Malik was more organized and involved. He had already emailed me a list before we arrived at the office complex. We didn’t share an office but were on the same block, separated by a door and a not-so-narrow hallway. I could go in whenever I wanted. Plus, I had a telephone on my desk to receive calls from or for him. The other good thing was the coffee maker. Beside it was a table with a tray of sweets. I was overindulging myself with sweet treats, but how could I say no when it was right there?My phone buzzed on the table, and I automatically glanced at Malik’s door. I hated that we couldn’t see each other but also loved it. It increased the suspense as much as it frustrated me. While my office had a glass wall on one side to make it easy for my boss or passers-by to spy on me and vice versa, his was fully made of concrete. The man loved his privacy. I picked up the phone

    Waylen was here. He had already gathered attention from others inside the restaurant, but he didn’t seem to care about that. I shot to my feet, and Malik wrapped a hand around my wrist. Waylen was at the door, glaring at us and scaring the shit out of other people in the restaurant. How did he get in? How did he know we were here?“I’m fine,” I told Malik. I could handle Waylen on my own. The dent on his brow stayed, so I bent to kiss him. “I’ll be fine.”“Okay. Let me know if you need help.”I sashayed toward Waylen. He tried to grab my wrist, but I brushed past him, knowing he would follow. I didn’t stop until I was in the garage, away from curious eyes. Stopping beside Malik’s car, I crossed my arms on my chest and waited for Waylen.Minutes later, Waylen stalked into the garage like we had all the time in the world, his eyes not leaving mine. I tried not to show how much his

    “Stop talking,” I begged. “You are not making this easy for both of us.”“Good.”“Waylen—” I cut in before he could say more.“Because one, I want to bend you over my knees and spank you for making me suffer blue fucking balls this long. Two, I want to fuck you till we both see stars, tesoro,” he said. Fuck him because those words made me gulp hard. Heat pooled even more between my already quivering thighs. “Since we can’t have that here, I’m willing to settle for fucking you slow. Nice and slow in the backseat. If you are good, Beth, I’ll make you come more than once. I won’t make you beg, not so much, anyway.”My breath hitched. But I managed a soft, “Stop.”“Just please, get in the car immediately. Let me make both of us happy.”My panties were soaked. My thoughts were scrambled but one stayed coherent.

    Malik was in the same spot I left him when I entered the restaurant. His head rose a little like he could sense my presence. He probably could. Seeing him look so calm annoyed me. If he had come out to check on me, I wouldn’t have had to listen to Waylen’s jargon. Malik wasn’t a murderer.I slid back into my chair without a word. Our food wasn’t here yet, and I looked at him with questions in my eyes. He smiled, but I couldn’t bring myself to repay it. When his hand touched mine, I forced myself to stay still. This same hand took Mr. Parker’s life.No, it didn’t. I had to stop thinking that way.“Where’s our food?” My voice came out squeaky, but I didn’t care to repeat myself.“I asked them to pack it up,” Malik replied. He pushed my hair out of the way so his fingers could brush my cheek. “You took a while. Is everything okay with you two?”“You would k

    It didn’t make sense that Malik hadn’t killed any werewolves. The longer I spent marinating on that thought, the bigger my doubts grew to be. I had seen him kill. He was swift, quiet, and organized. You didn’t get that kind of experience without having murder on your hands. So he had come that night only to observe. After that, what next?Malik wouldn’t hurt me deliberately, that much I knew. But what if the council commanded it like they did the rogues he had killed? He said it himself. The council was the highest authority, and everyone in the packs, even the alphas, listened to them.My phone buzzed. 5 pm. Time to leave this place and head to my second prison, maybe not prison, since Malik allowed me to do or go wherever I wanted, but yeah, I still felt trapped. My life was pretty much a triangle.Office. Home. Hospital, sometimes.Hanging out with my friends meant one of my mates would have to be with me. It w

    The door shut after Malik, and I switched off the lights. Sleeping was futile. I tossed and turned until I fell into a fitful sleep. The following day, I was still cranky. I splashed water on my face and made my way into his room. He was seated on the bed. But I ignored him as I walked past to the bathroom to get the spare toothbrush. I finished brushing and returned to meet him in that same position. He looked exhausted. What was I even doing here in his room? I had a toothbrush in the guest room. I was supposed to be ignoring my mate, but worry gnawed at my chest. Folding my arms on my chest, I tapped my foot on the floor, and he slowly lifted his head to meet my gaze. Sad, gray eyes connected with mine. My insides tingled, but I scowled. “Are you okay?” I almost barked. “No.” His reply floored me. The softness of his voice made my arms drop to my sides. Did he transition at night? Except from the tiredness in his eyes, he looked okay. “C

    No, no, no. This was not my Malik, even if they looked alike and my body liked him. One, he was acting weird and more aggressive. His eyes constantly flicked between green and gray like he was contesting with his wolf. My thighs throbbed, not only from being in his presence but because they had been forced open while his fingers assaulted my pussy. I needed him so badly that as he ignored my plea to stop and continued thrusting into my wetness, part of me wanted him to keep going until my orgasm. But I also needed to put my foot down. If I could punish Waylen, I could punish Malik too. “Malik,” I called out, my voice louder. My body reacted in all the ways it should, and he continued to use that to his advantage. “What?” he barked, an unusual chill in his voice. He retracted his fingers to suck them clean. His eyes were different colors. One gray, one green. I didn’t know who was in charge. “Wolf got your tongue? Can’t talk anymore?

  • She Belongs To The Alphas    50: Forgive me

    MALIKThe weekend passed, and we were still not on talking terms. Elizabeth was back to the office. Except for passing vital information when necessary, she wouldn’t talk or look at me. I loved my mate, I needed her, but if she wasn’t sure how she felt about me anymore, maybe some space would be good for her. Staying in the guestroom hadn’t improved her mood. It was worse. I parked in the garage, and as usual, Elizabeth stepped out of the car without waiting for me to open her door. That didn’t bother me as much as knowing she would head into the guestroom and I wouldn’t see her until tomorrow morning. The council was a part of me. I had separated myself enough from them by refusing to be a part of the table. But I couldn’t cut ties with them. Not right now. Governor Kane raised me. I still reported to him. I followed after my mate without trying to make conversation. It was futile. Nothing I said would be good enough. After a quick shower, I turned

    My head was reeling. I was baffled. He lied. Malik lied to me. I walked back to the guestroom door to be sure it was locked. God, I wanted to leave this place. But the only option was with Waylen. He would gloat. I fell back to the bed with a sob, my hands covering my face as I let it all out. Fumi could have died. What was the point? To endear himself to me? That was unlike him. Puffing out a breath, I kicked off my shoes and tucked myself in bed without changing out of my dress. I fell into a fitful sleep and woke up feeling even more awful. My eyes were bloodshot red. My mind and body were exhausted. I tried to forget the conversation from yesterday, but it rolled back in too slowly to be ignored. Slumping into the seat in front of the mirror, I patted my cheeks and forced a smile to my lips. Thinking that I still had to go to work today made me want to return to bed and cry myself to sleep again. I defended Malik against Waylen so many t

    MALIKElizabeth and Waylen looked perfect with her seated on his lap. I was almost hesitant to call their attention to me, but it only took a few seconds for Waylen to notice me. My hand raised in a wave that never happened. There was something different about him, not anything callous but relaxing. I slipped onto the couch opposite them as Elizabeth smiled. I knew how to tackle angry Waylen, but this version was something else. Scary. “Malik,” Elizabeth said. I noticed his arm on her waist. Instead of creating any more awkwardness by having her come to hug or kiss me, I stretched out my hand to her, and she placed hers over it. I dropped a kiss on her knuckles, and she chuckled. She was happy, the happiest I had seen her in a while. I couldn’t say if Waylen saw it, but this was what I meant when I always said, her happiness depended on both of us. “Did you have any trouble locating the place?” “No. It was pretty easy, love.” Waylen was

    WAYLENI thought my day was good when I received an early morning nude from Beth. But it had only gotten better. A sleeping Beth snuggled in my arms while I worked was better than a picture of her naked body. Her chest rose and fell with each breath. It hadn’t taken too long for her to fall asleep after her release. I kissed my mate’s hair, smiling as my fingers worked on the laptop. Kane didn’t have any more people to kill from my end. Beth was safe. Alice and Evelyn were also in safe hands. The only unresolved issue was my relationship with Malik. I agreed to the meeting for Beth’s sake. She had been so generous with those pictures, but above that was the exhaustion. I was tired of our constant fights. Kane hadn’t provided the evidence yet. But until he did, I could pretend to tolerate Malik. A whimper from my mate made my fingers halt. Beth stirred but didn’t make any other move. I finished typing out the letter and closed the file. We needed replac

    Today was a good day to reach out to Waylen again. I had learned that a nude was the fastest way to get a reply from him, so I went into the bathroom to get two pictures of me before texting him. Malik had left for work already. I would join him later. If I got Waylen to meet me, then Malik would be joining us at the venue. The time for games was over. They needed to talk so we could find a permanent solution to the council and prevent another painful rut for Malik. I also wanted my freedom and independence, that of my sister and mom too. They couldn’t go anywhere without someone watching. It was an exhausting life for all of us involved. Waylen hadn’t replied yet. The message hadn’t been read, so I figured he was busy. I smeared my lipstick with my index finger, covering every inch of my lips with red. My dress was knee-length and easily accessible. Hopefully, I could get a real dick today. If not Malik’s, then Waylen’s. My phone rang as I finished with my m

    WAYLENThe lines on the paper blurred the longer I stared. I tapped the tip of my pen to the sheet, creating a bigger dot on the same spot. Firing Beth or having her quit had to be at the top of the most stupid things I had done in my life. I yanked my tie, loosening it as I kicked my legs out. I hadn’t gotten a new assistant and probably wouldn’t until she returned to work. I rechecked my phone to see if she had sent another picture of her boobs. When she sent that one on Friday, I had gone into the nearest bathroom to check for her. My forgiveness couldn’t be earned so quickly, but it didn’t mean I couldn’t have fun while at it. The only genuine apology she owed me was for always throwing Malik in my face, putting me second when I should be first. I was her first mate, the one who decided how things would go with her and Malik. Thoughts of Beth took a backseat as I stared at my desk. I bunched the paper and tossed it in the trash can by the door. My finger
