Chapter 415 Chapter 415 Mack's p.o.v.
Kay stumbles back the moment Maleah pulls her aura back in and I see shock on the faces of our Alphas, even I didn't know an Assassin could pull back their aura that fast. Dad taughtto pull it back slowly to avoid getting dizzy or disoriented, but it doesn't seem to affect Maleah at all and I think I understand why no one ever heard any of her victims cry for help.
"I believe you owe Alpha Dominic an answer." Maleah says as she steps back and Dominic steps forward to repeat his question. She glances at Maleah before she tells him she got offered a lot of money for the Pups, all she had to do was make sure they were dropped at a certain spot in the forest and the rest would be taken care of. None of them had counted on Fortune being out there or for Maleah to have the gifts she has.

"You want another taste of my aura?" Maleah asks when the Sigma keeps quiet and that seems to be enough for her to start talking again. We find out it was the first tfor her but not the first tsomeone working at the orphanage was approached and we find out that on at least two other occasions the drop had been successful.
Levi is writing down everything she is telling us and I know he will look into this until he has uncovered which Pups were sold, he will even try to find out if they are still alive. If they are still alive we will do everything to rescue them and bring them back to the Pack, giving them all the help they need from us. Maleah has been quiet as the Sigma was talking and just as Levi gets ready to take the Sigma back to the dungeons Maleah turns back to the Sigma, "How did they contact you?" She ask.
"I got a phone call from an unknown number and at first I didn't answer but after they called for the third tI answered the call, they toldI could make easy money. If I wanted to hear about the offer I had to go to Wolfpine, I would meet a female at a diner there and she would explain what I had to do to get paid. Her nwas Nishay and at first I was reluctant, until she toldthat they would have a good life." The Sigma says.
Levi gets the unknown number from her phone, before he brings her back to the dungeons. This is going to be a tough decision for our Alphas, she failed in her attempt to sell four Pups and technically she hadn't committed a crime. She did leave four young Pups to fend for themselves, but other than that she failed in what she wanted to do and I am not sure what my decision would be if I had to make it.
"You will return to the dungeons and you will remain there until we know what happened to the other Pups that were sold. If you want us to show you sleniency I suggest you think hard about who sold the other Pups and I don't care if you are doubtful about their identity, you better tell us who you suspect of selling those Pups." Dominic growls before two Warriors walk in and haul her off to the dungeons again, he will make her wait to find out her punishment.
Once the door closes behind them Maleah walks back toand I wrap my arms around her as she buries her face in my neck, "Take your time, Angel They can ask their questions later I say to her as I give a small shake with my head and I know they understand that Maleah needs tto calm down, "I will put sScouts on this, I want to know what happened to those Pups and if Maleah is right about the business the Dayborne Brothers and the Bornshade Sisters are involved in I fear the worst for those Pups." Levi says.
"And don't getstarted on how we are going to explain this to your Mother." He continues as he looks at our Alphas and all three of them pale when he mentions Elyse, she will be devastated to find out what might have happened to sof the Pups. Pups she thought had found a new home, a family to love and care for them and we had to tell her that those Pups might be dead by now. "I am not volunteering for that task." Commander says.
I can feel that Maleah has calmed down and I smile when I realize she calmed down so much that she fell asleep in my arms, I move a little on the couch to get more comfortable before I make it clear that Maleah is sleeping. Dillon chuckles as he moves a strand of hair out of her face, "Can you imagine, looking at that face, that she nearly brought all of us to our knees?" Dillon asks and I remember the cold and calculated look on her face when she released her aura.

"It is a good thing that Maleah is my Mate or I would have joined you." I say as I look at the angelic face against my chest, "Did anyone of you succeed in finding memories of Maleah?" I ask before I place a kiss on her forehead, looking up I see Kay and Levi shaking their heads.
"We have been able to find a few memories of her, but she is usually in the kitchen and I guess we all thought she was one of the Omegas." Dillon answersand I remember that as young teens they would always go to the kitchen to get snacks for us, as the future Alphas they always got whatever they asked for. If she spent most her tin the kitchen or with our Alpha and Luna | understand why Commander can't find a memory of her. I never felt at ease in the kitchen for vel
sreason, just the smell of vegetables had my skin crawling and it tookuntil I had Commander to find out why. Apparently as a Pup! wasn't the smartest one and during a gof hide and seek I hid in the basement under the kitchen, a basement the Omegas use to store the vegetables. I spent hours down there before I was discovered by an Omega, but by that tI was in a total panic because the door had been locked and I couldn't get out.
Screaming and banging on the door hadn't helped and it took ages before I was able to sleep with the lights turned off, it took even longer before I Oven longer before I was willing to eat any type of vegetables again. "Maleah will laugh her ass off if you ever tell her this story, our Head Assassin locking himself in the basement." Commander chuckles after I have relived the second worst day of my life and I am glad I have Maleah in my arms.
