Rylee's POV:
I went to pick up one of the dresses to see if it was my size. Shockingly, they had even brought me a set of pants and a bra in my actual size.
"Who the heck sent these?!" I growled and heard my phone ringing again.
I rushed over to my phone to pick it up, and I saw that it was Nash calling me.
I ended the call, as I was sure Nash was not the man who had slept with me.
Then he called me again.
"Hello, what is it?" I asked him, and he demanded, "Where are you, Rylee? I came to your apartment and heard that you didn't return home from the hotel last night. What happened?"
"None of your business," I replied to Nash coldly.
"Rylee, why are you doing this? I already told you that I can't reject my mate, but that doesn't mean I don't care about you or the love we shared. Please, try to understand me," Nash begged, and I told him with a stern voice, "There's nothing for me to understand, Nash. You made your choice, and that was our Beta's daughter, Bella Harvey. So why should I get involved with you again? We're over. So don't call me again."
"Wait, Rylee. You remember that I told you my mother was rejected by her mate, and that's why she got sent away from the palace? It's Bella's father. I don't think he will accept my union with Bella. But at the same time, everyone knows I love you, and you know I love you too. Calm down, Rylee. Once I settle all this, I will explain to Bella, and she will understand and allow me to have you too. Please..."
I shook my head tearfully and told him, "She will never accept you to mark two women, and you shouldn't worry about me. I'll be fine." I wanted to end the call.
"Rylee, please wait. I love you very much. Please... Just give me a chance to fix all this," Nash begged, and I knew it wasn't his fault.
"I'm sorry, Nash. I already hooked up with someone last night, and I don't even know who the man is. He marked me," I told Nash, and he growled. "You did what? Who dares to mark you? Give me the hotel name. I'm coming there to get you now!"
"Nash, it's over. Just forget about me," I ended the call as I looked over at the dresses on the bed. They were high-end designer dresses that I could only dream of buying, and the bra and pants were top-brand as well.
I picked up one of the pant sets. It was a lacy, transparent, and seductive-looking pair.
I shook my head, trying not to think too deeply that Beta Fabian was the man I had slept with. I didn't want to think about him.
I wore the red pants, and they hugged my buttocks perfectly. As I picked up one of the bras and put it on, it cupped my breasts perfectly, bringing out their shape. I smiled, wondering how the person was able to get my exact size.
I had big breasts despite my slim figure.
I shook my head and picked up one of the lovely dresses, donning it. There was no point in waiting for Elizabeth, so I chose the red dress and wore it.
"Wow!" I gasped at my new appearance in the mirror.
Since I had been sponsoring Nash's education at our pack's university, I hadn't been able to purchase anything I liked. Most of my dresses were old and worn out. Seeing myself in this beautiful dress, I wondered who the man I had mated with last night was. He was so kind to give me a check for ten million for my virginity that he broke, even when I was the one who decided to lose it.
Also, he sent me these beautiful dresses and underwear. Why didn't he wait for me to see his face? I wondered why he had left so early. As I finished dressing up, I picked up a bag and packed all the remaining dresses and underwear, as there was no way I was leaving them behind.
Once I set off to leave the hotel room, I came across my boss, Mr. Nathan Anderson. He was a married man and over 30 years old.
"Oh my goodness! Rylee, what the hell are you doing in this VIP room, and how come you look so different?" He gasped as I strode out of the hotel room.
"Well, I don't know. Can I see the hotel security footage? I mean, I had no idea who the man I spent the night with was," I told Mr. Nathan, and he looked me up and down.
"Rylee, when did you become so shameless as to become a hooker? Didn't we pay you enough? Damn it," Mr. Nathan growled, but I shook my head and corrected him.
"I'm an adult, and whatever I choose to do, you have no right to blame me. Besides, I have no mate, and my boyfriend, to whom I gave everything, has already found his mate and proposed to her instead of me. So why blame me?"
Mr. Nathan looked at me with narrowed eyes, and his expression softened as he took a step closer to me and said, "But I asked you out on a date to hook up with me, and you refused. And yet, you shamelessly hooked up with someone else."
I rolled my eyes and told him, "I don't hook up with married men, except the unmated men in our pack. And since you have a mate, you can't drag me to hell with you. So how about the hotel security footage? Can you help me see it? I have no idea how I lost my memories and can't remember who the man was? Please..."
Mr. Nathan looked at me and shook his head. "If I help you, what am I going to gain? Unless you agree to hook up with me too. Then I can help you. We'll be fast. You look so fụcking hot, Rylee, and maybe it's your calling or gift from the Moon Goddess to become a hooker in our pack."
"Screw you, Mr. Nathan! You're so shameless, and I feel pity for your mate!" I smacked Mr. Nathan on his left cheek as we stood in the hallway.
Mr. Nathan growled and grasped my neck firmly. "How dare you raise your hand on me? Do you know who I am?"
"Let me go!" I screamed at Mr. Nathan, and he laughed, "Oh yeah? What are you going to do if I refuse to let you go? And besides, didn't you say you decided to hook up with someone? Why not hook up with me? I can take good care of you."
Mr. Nathan pinned me to the wall, drawing his face closer to mine, probably wanting to kiss me. However, a deep baritone voice ordered, "Let her go!"
Immediately, Mr. Nathan released my neck, which he had clutched firmly, and I collapsed on the ground, the polythene bag I had held falling off as well.
As Mr. Nathan turned to see who it was, his eyes widened in shock upon seeing Alpha Malakai, standing there and watching us.
Alpha Malakai's POV:As I arrived at the dining table, I settled in my usual seat across from my parents.I watched as three nervous maids came out of the kitchen to serve my parents and me around the dining table.It was a delicious meal of fish pepper soup and cooked rice for dinner. The delicious scent wafted through the air in the dining room, filling my stomach.Though, the ambiance in the dining room was tense due to my father's anger.The maids were dressed in blue and white uniforms, as all the Omega servants working in this elite realm had a simple dress code of blue and white - either a white top or shirt and a light blue skirt.They worked faster, setting up our separate dinners, and my mother looked at me with a smile.I sighed and looked away at my meal, as an Omega stood next to me and set up my plate.Luckily, she was a middle-aged woman, so that didn't trouble my parents at all.Most of the maids working in this palace had grown old, and it was partly because of me th
Alpha Malakai's POV:After my bath, I got out of the bathroom and donned a black shirt and trousers. Then I mindlinked Beta Fabian to discuss the Luna Selection with him."Where are you, Fabian?" I mindlinked him, just as I stood in front of my room mirror and buttoned up my shirt."I'm at home. Any problem, Alpha?" Fabian asked, a hint of annoyance in his voice."A little. Come to the palace immediately," I told him, knowing he was angry with me because I had broken the elite laws.I stood across the window, gazing out at the night sky as the stars shone bright. Many homes were lit, as we had a reliable power supply, and our pack was well-developed.Sighing, I moved away from the floor-to-ceiling window and went to my home office to wait for Fabian.As soon as I got into my office and took a seat, Fabian knocked, and I told him through the mindlink, "Come in.""Yes, Alpha," Fabian bowed and looked at me."You're still grumpy because of my recent threat to have you replaced," I comment
Alpha Malakai's POV:"What just happened?" I asked Quin after seeing the black stone explode.Even my parents looked worried.Quin picked up the stone shard and looked at me."You do not have a mate bond because your wolf is cursed," she said."What?" We all gasped, and I glared at her.I wanted to admit that I had mated with an Omega last night and marked her, but I dared not say that, as it was against our pack rules for an Alpha."What's that supposed to mean? I don't have a mate? Or I have a mate, and she is not among the elite stones you have chosen?" I asked Quinn, my voice laced with anger.Quin furrowed her brows, as she knew that as an Alpha, I could not mate with an Omega."Permit me to remind you of our pack rules, Alpha Malakai. It's against the royals' choice to settle for an Omega as your mate. So you do not have a mate below the elite realm," she said, and my fist clenched."So what am I going to do to break the curse, and who dares to lay a curse on me? I thought the pa
Alpha Malakai's POV:"Welcome, Alpha. Have a seat," my mother said, gesturing for me to take a seat on the couch beside her. Shortly after, I had hugged her."Alright, Mom. Who do we have here?" I asked, just as I sat next to my mother on the exquisite living room couch. The young woman in a brown dress stood up and introduced herself to me."Alpha Malakai, I am Quinn Logan. A 30-year-old priestess, as my mother is the former priestess of this pack," Quinn introduced herself, and I nodded."Have a seat," I gestured for Quinn to sit back, and she smiled.My father, Alpha Oliver Preston, came down the hall to join us. He wore a black garment and was very tall, standing regal, commanding wealth and authority."Good afternoon, Alpha," Quinn immediately rose from the couch and bowed at my father as he descended the stairs to join us."Rise," my father said, then he walked up to the Alpha's chair to have a seat.I knew I hadn't taken over this pack completely because I didn't have a Luna. My
Rylee's POVI am not ready to be a mother, but if only I knew who the man was. I tried not to think about the possibility of getting pregnant."I was safe," I told myself and watched Elizabeth bring me a plate of hot jollof rice."Thank you," I smiled at her as she sat next to me on my bed."So what do you plan to do next, Rylee? Contact Bella's mother and ask her for money, or let it go? How about the 10 million given to you?" Elizabeth asked, and I sighed."I'll check it out on Monday. Don't tell anyone about my predicament, not even your mother," I told Elizabeth, looking at her face sternly. Knowing that her family would want to know what took her to the pack house."Fine. I won't tell them about you mating with an unknown man. After all, you're an adult. So why would anyone bash you?" Elizabeth laughed, and that made me feel relieved."Right. I won't get bashed, but many would want to know who I suddenly get pregnant with. I would be reported to the Alpha's family, and I can't thi
Rylee's POV:The atmosphere in Beta Fabian's car was chilling as he drove his sleek black car out of the pack's house, heading towards the peaceful estate where Elizabeth and I lived.As I peeked out of the car window, I saw some pack members looking at Beta Fabian's car in shock, as they weren't expecting to see two Omegas with him.Beta Fabian spared no passerby a glance as he drove coolly.I thought about the marking on the right side of my neck. If Beta Fabian claimed he wasn't the man who had marked me, then who did?Racking my brain for answers was futile.I watched as Beta Fabian's car drove with a speed that sent Elizabeth and me reclining in the backseat, as he seemed annoyed to be taking us.So why was he doing this?As Beta Fabian's car arrived at the Peaceful Estate gate, where lower-class families like Elizabeth and I lived, his car slowed down as he waited for the security men at the gate to pull the huge black gate open.But unlike the pack house, this peaceful estate di
