Reclaimed By The Alpha King
Chapter 76

Chapter 76: Chapter 76

We were at the open field, working on our assigned portions as usual.

The sight of me, Liza, Kaitlyn, and Mohandia talking and laughing together seemed to reassure some of the other maids that Mohandia’s days of terrorizing them were over.

However, a few of her former followers, who still believed in her, thought she had gone weak and was acting foolish.

Two of these girls stood by their untouched portions, making it clear that they weren’t planning to work, especially since I was the one who assigned the tasks. It wasn’t hard to figure out that the rumors were true—they were planning to challenge my leadership and prove a point that morning.

I approached them with a calm demeanor, keeping a polite smile on my face. "It seems like you both are tired of working on your portions?" I asked softly.

They looked at me with scorn, their expressions daring me to push further. I could tell they wanted trouble, but I had already decided to deal with them in a new way.

"Since you’re not responding, I’ll make sure to inform the Alpha later tonight," I said, still smiling. "I’ll let him know we have two maids who think they can challenge how things are run here, and that they have a better way to lead."

One of the girls scoffed and spoke up. "As if you can talk. We know all about you, Kimberly. The Alpha rejected you. Stop bluffing and get out of here. Do we look as stupid as Mohandia, who let you get into her head?"

Her words stung, but I couldn’t let them see how much it affected me. I forced myself to remain composed, my smile unwavering.

"True, you know my story. But here’s the thing," I said, leaning in slightly, "while I may not be able to waltz into the Alpha’s chamber on my own, I have been invited to join the leaders’ meeting. That’s right. I’ll have a direct audience with him tonight. And who knows? Maybe I’ll mention how two maids here think they’re too important to work."

Their smug expressions faltered. As I turned to walk away, I heard the sounds of them hurriedly picking up their tools and getting back to work.

I made my way back to where Mohandia, Liza, and Kaitlyn were working. As I approached, they all stood and looked at me, noticing the smile on my face.

"I bet you just worked your magic with them, didn’t you, Kimberly?" Mohandia asked, a smile of her own forming.

"I don’t know how you do it, but it’s like you have this gift. People feel cornered whenever you speak to them," Liza added, admiration clear in her voice.

"I’m just glad you’re here," Kaitlyn said, her tone soft but sincere. "Things have been so much better since you arrived. Well, aside from the recent... you know, all the deaths."

Her last words darkened the mood a bit, and I nodded solemnly.

Liza glanced at me, her brow furrowed. "Speaking of that, what’s the plan? Are the elders and ma’am Elena doing anything to stop this madness?"

I hesitated for a moment, choosing my words carefully. "I can’t share much, but we’re meeting with the Alpha tonight, and hopefully, we’ll come up with a solution."

Kaitlyn looked worried. "I just hope we’re not next. The deaths keep happening so frequently now..."

"Don’t worry," I said, giving her a reassuring smile. "Everything will be resolved soon."

"How can we get our lives back?" Mohandia asked suddenly, her voice calm but serious. "We’re stuck here forever. And how will you handle meeting the Alpha again after everything that’s happened between the two of you?"

Her question took me by surprise, but I quickly regained my composure. I couldn’t afford to let my emotions show.

"We’ll get our lives back," I said, keeping my tone steady. "As long as we stick together and face these challenges as a family, we’ll overcome them. As for the Alpha, what happened between us is in the past. I’m here now, and I’ve found a new family in all of you. That’s what matters."

We finished our work not long after, and everyone went back to their rooms to clean up before heading to the canteen for breakfast. After I was done, I joined my friends, and we ate quickly before returning to our rooms, following the strict orders from the elders and ma’am Elena.

Later in the evening, I heard a knock on my door. I knew it must be the chief maidservant.

I hurried to open it, and sure enough, there she stood. "Kimberly, it’s time for the meeting. Let’s go before it gets too dark. We’ll need the guard or Jefferson to escort us."

I locked my door and followed her as we made our way to the meeting venue. It didn’t take long before we arrived. To my surprise, the elders and ma’am Elena were already seated, waiting for the Alpha.

We sat down, and after a few minutes, the sound of footsteps echoed in the room. These weren’t the steps of just one person.

As we all turned to look, the Alpha walked in, followed by a figure dressed in a dark, hooded garment, holding a staff. We stood up to acknowledge the Alpha as he took his seat, and the mysterious figure sat beside him.

"Greetings to all," the Alpha began, his voice firm yet enthusiastic. "Tonight, we will finally get some clarity on how to defeat the silent beast terrorizing our pack. I’ve brought with me Elihandiak, a powerful sorcerer from the Dark Moon pack."

A murmur of surprise swept through the room. The presence of a sorcerer meant the situation was even more serious than we had thought.

The Alpha gestured toward Elihandiak, who remained silent but nodded in acknowledgment.

"Together," the Alpha continued, "we will find a way to put an end to this beast once and for all."

Immediately after the Alpha mentioned the name of the sorcerer, Elihandiak, we all turned towards him.
