~AriaBefore the cars were scheduled to pick us up, Malik took us to a quaint cafe known for their legendary hot drinks. The girls, who aren't used to the cold are immediately grateful for the warmth that envelops us, as we first walk in.The place is almost empty, which I can tell Malik is relieved about. I'm sure he doesn't want to be noticed while we are here.Instead, the only people are an old couple sipping from fine china, while chewing on small tea drenched biscuits. They hardly even looked up when we walked in; too engaged in the local newspaper. The group of us found a table in the corner of the cafe, to not disturb the two, while we talked.Who knows what about, since so far I have deduced that I don't have much in common with these girls.As soon as we sat down, a girl with a friendly smile written all over her face came to serve us. I ordered an English Breakfast tea, while everyone else settled for other, stronger drinks like coffee. Honestly, the bitter taste of it matc

~Aria"I just don't get it, you know?" I say, pulling the edge of the potato chip packet back, so I could find a good one.Malik sat opposite me, flicking through a random book he had picked up. He had shown up in the library tonight like he had promised. I was also granted some decent food, along with his presence, after I had to wait ten minutes for him to get away unnoticed. The past few nights, he hadn't had any problems, but after the conversation of Patience was brought up, and the fact that her going home had him swarmed with more security, I began to understand.Now him and I are discussing the unorthodox moment that we both witnessed today. Me first hand. I had even had to convince security it had actually happened, after some sort of wild excuse she had come up with. Luckily, Malik heard the truth in my words and eliminated her without a second thought."Me neither," he murmured, still looking down at the book. "I'm just hoping no other girls are doing this behind my back. T

~Aria Malik sent home two more girls, a few days after Zariah and I came up with our plan. Both of us are wary of telling Brynn, with the way she radicalise's everything. If Zariah and I can pull this off without her, then so be it. It might be better with the smallest possible group of people. Brynn likes to brag as well, and if we find anything in his room, she might open her mouth to some of the other girls. Also, one less person to see me steal from him. "Can you believe it," Brynn mutters in my ear, as we walk down the long stretch of the main hallway. "Making Malik chose who he would rather take out, in front of everyone?"It's is the latest gossip mulling around. No one can believe the fact that Malik's mother wants to him to cause controversy within us to spice up the ratings on TV, which have plummeted since Patience went home., under Malik's hand. Whoever will be selected, will most likely be the centre of every girl here's radar...to target."I know, it's stupid," I whi

~AriaMalik caught my arms as I stumbled backward. The weight of the world cinched tight around me, swallowing every sense of understanding about the situation. Why would he take me here. "What's wrong?" I hear Malik question, although I hardly understand through the assault of thoughts hitting me right now. The urge to turn and run as far away from the house I spent my entire life in, is immense, but Malik's presence behind stops me. "Aria...You can tell me? What's wrong?"My parents were in there. The exact parents who completely betrayed my trust. They used my lack of independence as an excuse; as a way to cut me out of their privileged lives. I may be doing this to save their lives, but I never want to see their faces again. If I did, I might do something I'll regret..."We need to go," I mumble, feeling sober suddenly. Who knows how long it will take until one of them sees us out here. I brush past Malik, wishing my head wasn't spinning so much. My only thought is that I need

~Aria The following days after Malik and I's date were a whirlwind. He took others on dates, including Brynn. While he did so, Zariah and I plotted how and when we are going to sneak into Malik's quarters. Over those few days, I learnt Zariah is one of the smartest people I know, yet at the the same time, the stupidest. Her Wisdom Pack counterpart has been sent home after she picked one too many fights with the other girls. Zariah didn't like her anyway. I just wish that Macie would be sent home too, since she has completely turned into a different person since she began hanging around with Phoenix and Mareli. They all leave me to wonder what will happen when it gets to the last few girls. No doubt they will turn on each other like wild animals. "I know Phoenix's family is beyond rich, but apparently so is Macie's," I'm told at breakfast. I stop eating my apple, watching Zariah carefully. "Her father is a plantation owner."Macie hadn't mentioned it, but not many girls mentioned

~Aria Again, Zariah had to pick Malik's lock. As I watched her do it, I wonder for a brief second if I should warn Malik to invest in a better lock system even a Wisdom Pack member wouldn't be able to crack.The movement of her swinging the door open mirrored the wave of fear that assaulted my heart."You search the left side, I'll search the right," Zariah said fleetingly before she wandered straight into the room without a hitch in her step. Swallowing, I took a few moments to get myself together, before I followed her inside.The first thing that struck me, was how his room heavily smelt like him. I should have expected the rich yet subtle spicy scent of Malik. It sunk another bout of guilt onto my shoulders, making me inwardly curse myself as I close the door behind me. Yet all my worry evaporated suddenly, as I took in the Alpha of Love's room.He hadn't bothered to make his bed - his white sheets rumpled around his mattress. Wouldn't someone make it for him, or does he not let

~AriaMalik was working on that damn couch for what must have been over an hour. I finger the shower grate mindlessly, as I wait for Malik to go to bed. The dried soap on my skin itches beyond belief, and is slightly peeling, but on the bright side, I smell nice. Well, I smell like Malik, which wouldn't go down well with the other girls.While I waited, I wondered what happened to Zariah. She must have made a run for it, when she saw Malik coming down the hallway. She's too smart to stick around, unlike me.Suddenly, the sound of Malik's phone ringing makes me jump, nearly making me drop the grate I had been holding in my hand. "Rylan. Hey," I hear Malik say.Rylan, I know that name. The Alpha of Purity...It does make sense that the Alpha of Love would be in contact with the Alpha of Purity, since they share a lot of the same Pack values. But did this esteemed Alpha of Purity know of what Malik used to get up to with all those women who came out to news reporters? I really hope that

~Aria I'm out of bed in the second. The sound of the scream was one of pain, of panic. And right beside my room, through the wall. Heart racing, I back up, wondering what to do. My mind can't seem to fathom fully what is going on; being delirious on sleep, the darkness curling around my mind. What do I do? Am I the hero that will save the day from something I'm under about? I can't just sit here and not do anything...I run out the room, stumbling into the hallway with my hands in front of me. Wherever the light switch is, I doubt I'm going to find it. Instead, I run my fingers along the wall, getting closer to the sound assaulting my ears. The moment my hand lands on the door handle, I exhale in relief. When I open the door, I can hear rustling coming from what is probably the bed. A struggle, and the shrill scream of pain. Luckily, the light switch is the same as in my room, so I flick it on, and let my eyes adjust to the light. Right in front of me, are two girls. Rose and th
