Reclaimed By The Alpha King
Chapter 191

Chapter 191: Chapter 191

Mona stood alone in her room, basking in the silence.

The moonlight spilled through the large windows, casting long shadows across the floor.

She moved gracefully to her gigantic standing mirror, the smooth surface reflecting her proud figure.

Her dark eyes glimmered with satisfaction as she examined herself.

Slowly, she ran her fingers through her sleek black hair, admiring the way it cascaded over her shoulders.

"The first female alpha after more than five hundred years..." Mona whispered, a sly smile curving her lips.

"Mona, you’ve done well." She tilted her chin upward, feeling the weight of her new title settle on her shoulders heavy, but exhilarating.

Her reflection stared back at her, proud and powerful. But this is only the beginning.

She turned slightly, admiring the way her dark gown hugged her curves. Power suited her. It felt right, like she had been born for this moment.

"From now on, I’ll need more power... stronger allies. No one will take this throne from me." Mona said to herself.

Her eyes narrowed, burning with determination. Every move from here on out would be calculated. She couldn’t afford a single mistake.

"I need to see Katherina today," she whispered, her fingers curling into fists. "She still has her uses."

Mona moved to her vanity, carefully applying dark lipstick to her full lips.

The color deepened her already sharp features, making her look even more formidable.

When she was done, she slipped on a long black coat and headed toward the door.

Her heels clicked softly against the polished floors as she made her way out.

As she crossed the hallway, she spotted Elena coming towards her. Mona’s eyes narrowed.

Of all the people she could’ve run into, it had to be Elena. The tension between them was always palpable, simmering just beneath the surface.

Elena’s expression was unreadable as she approached, her arms folded across her chest. Mona decided to speak first.

"What brings you to my chamber, Elena?" Her tone was calm, but the edge was unmistakable.

Elena smirked, her eyes glinting with cold amusement.

"It’s only right for me to pay homage to the first female alpha in centuries.

Quite the achievement... You’re surely something else." The sarcasm in her voice was razor-sharp.

Mona’s lips curved into a slow, dangerous smile.

"Yes, I am something else. Something you’ve never seen... nor experienced." She stepped closer, lowering her voice to a near whisper.

"It would be a terrible mistake to get on my bad side."

Elena raised an eyebrow, unimpressed.

"And how long do you think you’ll hold that title before someone drags you down?" She paused, her gaze cold and calculating.

"Do you really believe Derrick won’t return?"

The words hit their mark. Mona stiffened slightly, though she quickly masked it with a chuckle.

"Derrick is gone. He’s a relic of the past. This pack needs new blood, new power. I will make sure they never look back."

Elena scoffed. "We’ll see." Without another word, she turned on her heel and walked away, leaving Mona standing alone.

Mona clenched her jaw, watching Elena’s retreating figure.

Derrick... The name echoed in her mind, sending a ripple of unease through her.

She shook it off. No one was going to take her place, not Derrick, not Kimberly, not anyone.

She made her way to her vehicle, sliding into the driver’s seat and gripping the steering wheel tightly.

"Let them doubt me," she muttered under her breath. "I’ll show them all." The engine roared to life, and she sped off into the night.

Meanwhile, across town, Alpha Theo sat in his study, his brows furrowed in thought.

The room was dimly lit, the fire crackling softly in the hearth.

Papers were scattered across his desk, but he barely noticed them. His mind was elsewhere.

A soft knock on the door pulled him from his thoughts. "Come in," he called, his voice low.

The door creaked open, and Elijah stepped inside, bowing slightly. "Alpha, you have a visitor."

Theo glanced up, frowning. "A visitor?"

"Yes," Elijah replied. "He requests to meet you... and the Moon Goddess."

Theo’s frown deepened. "Who is he?"

Elijah hesitated, shifting slightly. "I don’t know, Alpha. But I could sense his strength. He carries an aura of authority... but he seems calm."

Theo was silent for a moment, his mind racing.

"Alright," he finally said, pushing back his chair. "Kimberly and I will meet him in the living room shortly."

Elijah bowed and left the room.

Theo sat back in his chair, rubbing his temple. A visitor? His gut told him this was no ordinary meeting.

He stood, stretching his tense muscles before heading toward the living room.

Kimberly was already there, her arms folded across her chest. "What’s going on?" she asked softly.

"Elijah says we have a visitor," Theo replied, sitting beside her. "Someone strong. I want you with me when we meet him."

Kimberly nodded, her expression unreadable. They waited in silence, the air growing heavier with each passing second.

Finally, the door opened, and Elijah stepped inside. Behind him was a tall figure, his face partially obscured by shadows.

The stranger stepped forward, his eyes cold and calculating.

"Alpha Theo," he said, his voice smooth but laced with authority. "It’s an honor to finally meet you."

Theo studied him carefully, his instincts on high alert. "And you are?"

The stranger smiled faintly. "My name is Lucian. I’ve come to offer my services."

Kimberly tensed beside Theo, sensing the same unease. "Services?" she asked. "What kind of services?"

Lucian’s eyes glimmered in the firelight. "Let’s just say... I specialize in dealing with threats. And from what I hear, you have quite a few of those lately."

Theo’s jaw tightened. "What do you know?"

Lucian chuckled softly. "More than you’d like me to." He stepped closer, his gaze settling on Kimberly.

"Mona is making her move, a very dangerous move. And if you’re not ready, she’ll tear everything apart."

Kimberly exchanged a look with Theo. "Why should we trust you?" she demanded.

Lucian smiled again, a slow, dangerous curve of his lips. "Because right now... I’m the only chance you’ve got to eliminate her threat."

The fire crackled softly in the silence, shadows dancing across the walls.

Theo stared at Lucian, weighing his options. He didn’t trust this man, not yet. But something told him they would need every advantage they could get.

"Alright," Theo finally said. "We’re listening."

Lucian nodded, his smile widening. "Good. Let’s get started."

As the fire burned low, the night grew colder. And somewhere in the darkness, Mona’s plans continued to unfold.
