The Lycan King’s Army
Chapter 158 Warning
Mack’s p.o.v.
+8 Pearls
Maleah left three days ago, and in that time, her Mother has contacted her seven times already. I still don’t understand why it is so damn important for Alpha Bradley to have her move to his Pack. He should know she will never bow down to him, and he knows that she is strong enough to handle him. He knows that her aura is stronger than his aura.
He will never be able to force her to stay. No one will be able to overpower her to mark her against her will “Unless he drugs her,” Commander responds to my thoughts, and I release a menacing roar at that thought.
“Mack, what the fuck happened?” I hear Dax ask from behind me, and I realize I had been so deep in thought that I forgot I was in the Alpha office.
They know about the messages Maleah has gotten from her Mother, and I turn towards Dax before I say, “The only way Alpha Bradley can have Maleah forcefully marked is if he drugs her. I hear the others roar just like I did, and within seconds, the door to the office is pushed open. After we explain why we all roared, Luna Elyse asks me if there is a way to warn Maleah about it. I take a look at her schedule and tell Luna Elyse she will be back at the hotel in an hour.
“I asked her to send her schedule to me and to send me a message every time she reaches another location. I want to make sure no one tries something, but I also want her to be able to do her job,” I explain. It looks like I will have to talk to her about getting some security, and I have this feeling she will not like my suggestion.
It is as if the next hour passes in slow motion, as if time is taunting me by moving slower than usual. I know it is moving at a normal rate, but when you wait for something or someone, time always seems to move at a slower pace. I sigh in relief when I hear a notification on my phone. I send Maleah a message back, and within a few minutes, she calls.
“Maleah, there is something we need to discuss, and I understand if you don’t like what I am about to suggest, but it is for your own good,” I say, and I chuckle when she grumbles at me to just spit it out. “I believe they will try to drug you. It will make it impossible for you to fight off anyone that wants to mark you against your will,” I explain, and for a few moments, it is quiet on the other end of the line.
I have placed the call on speaker to make sure everyone can hear what is being said by Maleah. “Mack, I appreciate the concern, but it isn’t necessary. I have had my own protection detail since I was eighteen. I will inform them about your suspicions, and they will make sure no one comes anywhere near me,” she responds. I ask her why she has her own protection detail.
“Mack, I am a public figure. I am a very successful businesswoman, and besides having Fortune in my head, I also have a fortune in the bank. Would you like to see the letters and mails I have received over the years from Wolves and Lycans that want to become my Mate?” she asks, and Commander growls in my head. Just the idea of her with another male has him agitated. “Some of them have a very hard time taking no for an answer. More than half of those males gave up after a year or two, but others are a bit more persistent.”
I understand there is nothing I can say to get her to accept help from me, and I ask her if she trusts her protection detail. “Yes, Mack. They have been with me for years, and I doubt anyone has ever noticed them until it was too late. My team is well–trained. They can blend in with their surroundings, and if you have any doubts about it, I suggest you talk to my Dad and yours. They are the ones that recommended th. o me,” she responds.
After we disconnect the call, I go in search of my Father. I would like to know who is in her protection detail and why he never told me that some of our Pack–members travel with her. I finally find my Father in his

as I sit down in a chair in front of his desk.
“Why am I not aware of the fact that some of our Pack–members work as Maleah’s protection detail?” I ask.
“None of our Pack–members work for Maleah or with her. Her protection detail consists of Wolves and Lycans that were raised in a town or city, and each of them took the training classes we offer to those that don’t live in a Pack,” Dad answers. “Diego and I investigated cach Wolf and Lycan before we introduced them to Maleah. We knew why she wanted a protection detail, and we both made sure she got the best of them. She never had to fire anyone we recommended to her, and I believe all of them are still working for her.”
I ask Dad if there is anything else I might want to know about them. “Diego and I chose each of them because they are Assassins, and each of them has the ability to hide their scent,” he answers. Now I understand what she meant when she mentioned no one ever noticed them. She probably has the best team someone could ask for.
Dad and I are still no closer to finding out why Alpha Bradley is so interested in Maleah or why he is so hell- bent on her moving into his Pack. Dillon has sent out two Scouts to find out whatever they can about Alpha Bradley and what is so damn important about Maleah moving to his Pack.
