## Malia Knight

* Human

* Beta (Yellow Eyes)

> It was when you two first met. How you treated her and then today when she came back, and you saw her again. The only person other than Malia I’ve seen you cave in for and reverse the affects of your curse. Was Claire, back when you two were still together before she left town. She likes you and she’s a lot smarter than you think. I think somehow without knowing, she can tell there’s something going on with you. That’s why she tried so hard to reach out to you. Not only because she does genuinely need the help—but because she’s infatuated with you and doesn’t want to do anything to upset you. She wants you to be chill and happy at all times not having to stress yourself out.”

**Malia Janessa Knight** is a main character in the supernatural horror novel series *True Alpha*. Her character model is based off the appearance of Emma Roberts.

She was born in Phoenix, Arizona to Peter Knight and Jennifer Reynolds on June 6th, 1995, as a werecoyote. She is the first werecoyote of the Knight Bloodline and the first Knight Family member to contain the genes from two different species (without being a hybrid).

## Biography

### Early Life

For much of her childhood, she remained a mystery to most werewolf and werecoyote communities. To the point that she never met her extended family on her mother or father’s side. With Peter occasionally telling his brother and his nieces and nephews stories about his daughter but never introducing her. When Peter would leave to take care of things in Primal Hills, she was kept under the strict watchful eye of her mother. Who too, was an Alpha but of the werecoyote species.

Her childhood and overall existence were kept from everyone due to a strictly forbidden rule amongst the general supernatural community and especially the werewolf community. That rule prevents intermingling with another supernatural species due to the risk of a hybrid possibly being created. Should the leaders of the werewolf community find out about the existence of a hybrid or intermingling between a werewolf and another supernatural species. The consequences would be punishable by death.

At the age of 10 in the Summer of 2005, Malia was sexually assaulted and raped by her father while he was partaking in one of his power trips. This event would go on to mentally destroy and scar her for many years. She would keep this knowledge to herself due to being afraid of retaliation and backlash from her father.

### Pre Book Two Events (Book One: Epilogue)

In September 2011, on the month's first full moon, Malia accidentally transformed into her stage two form for the first time and slaughtered an innocent girl (later revealed to as Tasha) while out of control. Because of this she discovered that she wasn’t a werewolf, but instead inherited her mother’s supernatural genes and was a werecoyote. Not wanting her daughter to see her father in the state he was in, Jennifer tried everything to keep her daughter from traveling to Primal Hills. By October 7th, 2011, Malia had successfully made it to Primal Hills on her own after leaving her home in Phoenix, Arizona. She had traveled to Primal Hills to seek out her father in order for him to help her control her new powers and abilities since her mother refused to do so.

### Book Two Events (Early 2012)

Four months later in February 2012, after finding out about the death of her father through newspapers. Having no luck with her previous search and deciding to live on her own in the woods of Primal Hills. She decided to look for the murderer of her father.

## Appearance

### Physical Appearance

Malia is a young sixteen-year-old Caucasian teenage female with ties to the Knight Family and the werecoyote community due to her parent's respective heritages. Though she possesses DNA from both her parents, she only inherited her mother’s werecoyote gene, making her a natural-born werecoyote instead of a hybrid. She stands at five feet two inches tall and sports a physically fit petite body frame. During her first appearance in the epilogue of the first novel, she possessed her natural snow-blonde hair but over the course of the time between the two novels.

She would go on to dye her hair black. While transformed into her werecoyote stage two form, her face is severely mangled and disfigured. Her ears painfully cave into the sides of her head and reappear on the upper left and right sides of her scalp (similar to how an actual coyote’s ears are placed). Her mouth caves into her face as well and is replaced by a massive row of sharp fangs created from new bone marrow (Product of her spark). This is similar to how werewolves grow new fangs once shift into their stage two forms as well.
