My Secret Life (New Edition) Maleah novel Chapter 484

Chapter 484 Changes

In the meantime, three males wake up in their cells. None of them know how close or how far away their trial is, each of them caught up in their own mind as they think about the reason why they are in the Palace dungeons. Only one of them knows the same thing Zalia knows at the moment, and when everything is revealed, a lot will change for many Pack–members, Wolves, and Lycans in this Kingdom.

Rocco’s POV

Okay, I am admitting defeat. I don’t know who came up with the shifts of the guards, but I am at a total loss. I know that there are three shifts, but I don’t know how long each shift is, and without daylight or the guards talking, I have no idea how long I have been in here. If I had to make a I would say about five days or so, but it could also be a week, and that is what has me so confused.

guess

I thought that with Dad’s training, I would be able to see through the pattern, but there is nothing in their shifts that has shown me any consistency, and I hope I will get my trial really soon. I am just glad that Dad is no longer alive to find out I was planning on forcefully marking a female. I think he would be surprised if he found out it is Juliette’s Daughter, and I think they will ask me how I knew during the trial.

Zalia only looks like her Mother and Grandmother from a certain point of view, and during the meeting over a year ago, I saw it in a split second. I followed her during the remaining days of the meeting to see if I had been mistaken or not. It was on the last day of the meeting that I saw her from the right angle again, and I was amazed as I saw the resemblance to her Mother and Grandmother.

Finding out about her Mother was a bit more difficult until someone told me that she was sent to Silver Sand Pack, and that is where it became interesting. If only anyone had known the truth, life would be different for so many people, and I doubt I would have thought about forcefully marking Zalia. I never would have been able to get close enough to her–security would have been so much tighter around her, and males would have been lined up for miles to become her Mate.

I can feel my Wolf stirring in my head, but other than that, I still can’t reach him, and I know I will never be able to shift again. Not that my Wolf is gone or anything, but I doubt I will live long enough to get to do that again. We both knew that our lives would be over if we got caught, and it was something we were willing to risk. We hadn’t been really living after we missed our opportunity with Juliette.

My fated Mate came along when I was nineteen, and she was definitely not the kind of female I was interested in. She did nothing for me and my Wolf. Apparently, I wasn’t what she wanted either because she accepted my rejection without hesitating, and we still don’t regret letting her walk out of our lives. The difference between her and me is that she did find the life she wanted.

Donovan’s P.O.V.

I remember the first time Dad told me about the dungeons and the shifts our Warriors work down there. I didn’t believe I needed to know that, and I never thought I would have any use for that information. I mean, why do I need to know that our Warriors run eight–hour shifts down there, that there are only guards at the door from eleven in the evening until seven in the morning? Gibson and I tried to figure out why we needed to know all of this, but we never found an answer to it, other than that it is the responsibility of our Gamma.

The safety of our Pack will always be the responsibility of our Gamma. After all, I am the Alpha of Mon Stone Pack, and I just need to meet with Alphas and Betas to make alliances. I will have to sign off things my Beta and Gamma need to handle, but other than that, it will be their responsibility, and my Mate will be responsible for organizing every meeting, event, and party.

I just need to keep an eye on our Pack’s investments and know when to sell stock or when to buy new stock. My Beta will be handling all the legal stuff–he needs to make sure I can get away with everything about our

Laws I don’t like–and I think the first thing I am going to do is change our Pack rules. My Pack will do as tell them, and anyone who doesn’t agree with me can just leave. Damn, I need to find myself à Lures.

Brad’s PO.V

I stare at the ceiling of the cell I am in. There is not much else I can do, and there is nothing in this cell that holds any interest for me. There is a mattress in the cell–just a flimsy, cheap mattress–and I can guarantee you that this isn’t fit for an Alpha. Even though I doubt I will still be an Alpha when my trial is over, I never was an Alpha, and now I will never get the chance to be one.

The only thing I can hope for is that no one finds out the truth and that Elinor will be able to take the Alpha position at Moon Stone Pack. No one will get the truth out of me, but I hate that everything was within reach, and I didn’t see it. I just wish I had seen it, but I was too focused on making sure that no one would find out the truth, and in the end, I still didn’t get what I wanted.

Moon Stone Pack was everything I ever wanted, and I knew I would never become the Beta in my birth Pack -not that I wanted to be the Beta of a small Pack. I had bigger dreams for myself, and luck was on my side the day Maxwell asked me to become his Beta. I thought I had finally found my destination in life. I was happy for Maxwell when he found his Mate, but I never understood why he didn’t have a huge Luna Ceremony for her, and it took until their deaths that I figured out the truth.

Maxwell wasn’t the firstborn of the Alpha of Moon Stone Pack. He had an older Sister who grew up in a different Pack with her Mother, and she was the rightful heir. I never found out what happened to her after she reached the Palace, but if my assumptions are correct, she was a hell of a lot closer than I thought, and even if I had known, I never would have gotten what I wanted.

Benjamin and his Mate moved to Moon Stone Pack to become my Gamma couple, but she never felt comfortable around me and would always walk out of a room if I entered. Even after I found Hester, it didn’t change, and even though I asked Benjamin about it, he was unable to answer my question. His Mate kept avoiding me until the day she died.

Benjamin and Frank didn’t know that I wasn’t the rightful Alpha. They never knew there was someone else out there who held the power to rule Moon Stone Pack, and I will not enlighten Benjamin or Frank about what I figured out. I will take my secrets with me to my grave, and no one can tell anyone the truth because ‘I never told Hester or Donovan the whole truth. No one will be able to put the pieces together, not even if they find my hiding place on the Alpha floor.

I sit up straight as the Guards stop in front of my cell, and like every other time, neither one of them says a word. They just stare at me as if I am some zoo animal. One of them writes something on his notepad, and off they go again, just like every other time, Their shifts still don’t make sense to me–they have shifts around the clock, and they walk past the cells every few hours.

This is a waste of time and money in my eyes. It isn’t necessary to place multiple Guards during a night shift, and I never allowed more Warriors on a shift or patrol than I thought was necessary. I made sure that I bought everything the Omegas needed in bulk, keeping the prices down, and I never had to pay them. After all, they didn’t have to pay rent or buy their own food, so why bother with paying them if I could save some bucks this way?

I never heard anyone complain about the way I ran the Pack, and no one ever suggested that I should change my ways or start paying my Pack–members. No one pays rent in my Pack, but they have to fix whatever is wrong with their homes, and only big repairs were allowed to be placed on my desk. I wld try to postpone them as much as I could, but I also knew when I had to honor the request of a major r

Many Pack–members handed me ideas over the years to make extra income for the Pack, but I would always deny their requests. They would cost a lot of money to get off the ground, and it would take years before they would make us any real money. I knew when to flaunt the money we had and when to keep it,
