Chapter 136: Chapter 136

Kimberly sat on the edge of her bed, her thoughts spiraling out of control.

The events of the day had already shaken her, and now Mona’s sudden offer only made things worse.

*Should I trust her?* Kimberly asked herself, staring blankly at the floor.

*No. Mona doesn’t do anything out of kindness. There’s always a catch with her.*

She let out a heavy sigh, running her hands through her hair.

"Why is my life like this? Why can’t I have just one moment of peace?" she whispered to herself.

Her fingers unconsciously grazed the mark on her arm. It was still there, faintly glowing, a constant reminder that she was different.

"What are you? Why won’t you leave me alone?" she muttered, glaring at the mark in frustration.

Before she could delve deeper into her thoughts, a loud knock startled her. Her heart jumped, and she froze for a moment.

*Who could that be now?* she thought, quickly rising to her feet. She steadied herself, took a deep breath, and opened the door.

There stood Mona, dressed impeccably as always, her eyes scanning Kimberly with an unsettling mix of mockery and disdain.

"Luna Mona," Kimberly said, her tone guarded. "What do I owe this unexpected visit to?"

Mona didn’t wait for an invitation and pushed past her, stepping into the room.

She moved around as if inspecting the place, her sharp eyes taking in every detail.

"This is where your life has been ridiculed to?" Mona sneered, her lips curling into a smirk. "No wonder you’re so desperate for a way out."

Kimberly clenched her fists, forcing herself to stay calm. "If you came here to insult me, you can leave now."

Mona turned, crossing her arms as she faced Kimberly. "I didn’t come here to waste my time with petty insults. I came to see if you’ve made a decision."

"A decision about what?" Kimberly asked, though she already knew. She wanted to see how much Mona would reveal.

"Don’t play dumb, Kimberly. You know exactly what I mean," Mona said, narrowing her eyes.

"Have you decided to take my offer and escape this miserable life?"

Kimberly hesitated, her mind racing. *She’s up to something. She wouldn’t offer this unless she stood to gain from it.*

"I haven’t made up my mind," Kimberly said finally, her tone calm but firm. "And I don’t see why I should accept an offer from someone like you."

Mona’s smirk widened, her eyes gleaming with malice.

"Someone like me? Oh, Kimberly, let’s not pretend you have the luxury of being picky.

You’re trapped here, a nobody, and the only person willing to save you is alpha Theo. Use him before it’s too late."

Kimberly took a deep breath, her nails digging into her palms.

"If I’m such a nobody, why do you care whether I leave or stay? What’s in it for you, Mona?"

Mona’s expression faltered for a split second, but she quickly recovered.

"I don’t care about you. I care about this pack and keeping things in order.

Your presence here causes chaos. So, if you leave, everything goes back to normal."

*Liar,* Kimberly thought, her suspicions growing. But she forced herself to stay calm, to play along.

"Fine," Kimberly said, her voice steady. "I’ll take your offer. But how do you plan to make it happen? Alpha Derrick will notice if I’m gone."

Mona’s lips curved into a smile that didn’t reach her eyes.

"Leave that to me. In two days, I’ll make sure you’re out of here safely. All you have to do is keep your mouth shut.

Don’t tell anyone—not your little friends, not even alpha Theo. Words travel fast in this pack."

Kimberly nodded, her face unreadable. "Understood."

"I’ll give you the details tomorrow evening," Mona added, moving toward the door.

"Don’t mess this up, Kimberly. It’s your only chance."

With that, Mona walked out, the click of the door echoing in the now-quiet room.

As soon as she was alone, Kimberly sank onto the bed, her mind a whirlwind of thoughts.

*She’s lying. She doesn’t want to help me—she wants to get rid of me. But why? What’s her real plan?*

Her eyes fell to the mark on her arm again. It seemed to pulse faintly, as if reacting to her emotions.

*I need to act quickly,* she thought, determination hardening her expression.

*If Mona thinks she can outsmart me, she’s wrong. I’ll figure out her plan and make my move before she does.*

Kimberly took a deep breath, her hands curling into fists. "I won’t let her win," she whispered to herself. "Not this time."

As the room fell into silence, a storm of anger and resolve brewed inside her.

Something big was coming, and Kimberly knew she had to be ready for it by all possible means.

★★★

Kimberly was still in her room, but this time she had slept deeply, for more than an hourwhen she heard a gentle knock on her door.

Kimberly wasn’t sure if she heard the knocking right, until she heard it again, before she sluggishly made her way out of the bed towards the door.

"Who’s there?" Kimberly said with a weak voice.

"It’s me Kimberly" the familiar voice of Elena quickly put Kimberly awake, as she opened the door without hesitation.

Elena immediately got in and closed the door, as she looked nervous and worried.

"Kimberly, you have to leave here tonight" Elena’s words hit Kimberly with a shocking expression placed on her face.

"Leave... Tonight? Why and to where?" Kimberly asked, as she sounded very confused and curious all at the same time.

"I just got information from my sources that alpha Derrick is coming tomorrow morning with some men to move you out to another place.

Where only he will have access to see you" Mona explained, with concern evident on her face.

"What’s really going on... Why can’t they all let me be?" Kimberly said, as she sounded frustrated, with tears strolling down her eyes.

"This is not time for crying or asking questions... You need to get yourself together and tell no one about this.

I will come get you tonight" Elena said, while she tried to make Kimberly act stronger and stay focused.

Kimberly nodded her head, as she also wiped her tears.

"I will take you to a place very safe and from there... We will plan on what next to do" Elena said.

She stood up and was about to leave Kimberly’s room, before she asked a question that shocked Kimberly.

"Kimberly, why didn’t you tell me about Mona’s offer?" With a stern look into Kimberly’s eyes, Elena questioned...
