Kimberly slowly opened her eyes, squinting against the early morning sunlight filtering into the room. She looked around, startled by the sheer luxury of her surroundings.
The room was exquisitely furnished, with soft white curtains billowing gently in the breeze from an open window.
Everything looked immaculate, but as she tried to sit up, a sharp pain shot through her body.
Bruises and aches from the previous night’s ordeal reminded her of the struggle with Alpha Derrick.
Her heart raced as flashes of the encounter rushed back to her. "Where am I?" she thought, alarmed. Her hands touched the soft silk fabric of the nightgown she was now wearing.
Someone had cleaned and dressed her, but the memories of Derrick’s attack and her subsequent rescue haunted her mind.
Kimberly swung her legs off the bed and tried to stand, but her feet throbbed painfully. She winced, leaning against the bedpost for support.
Just then, the door opened, and a middle-aged woman entered carrying a tray of food. The woman’s cheerful demeanor and warm smile contrasted sharply with Kimberly’s confusion.
"Good morning, my dear. You’re awake!" the woman greeted her, placing the tray on a nearby table.
Kimberly’s lips parted, but no words came out. Her gaze darted around the room, trying to piece everything together.
"Oh, forgive me. My name is Maria. I’m the head housekeeper here at the castle. You must be famished," Maria said kindly.
"Castle? What castle?" Kimberly’s voice was hoarse as she finally found the courage to speak.
Maria’s smile softened. "You’re in the Lock’s Heart Pack territory. Our Alpha brought you here last night."
Before Kimberly could respond, another voice interrupted. "Maria, I’ll take it from here."
A tall, commanding figure entered the room. Alpha Theo. His presence was both calming and intimidating. Kimberly’s eyes widened as recognition hit her.
"You..." she whispered, her voice barely audible.
"Yes, it’s me," Theo said, his tone gentle but firm. He turned to Maria. "Thank you for everything, Maria. Please leave us for now."
Maria nodded and exited the room, leaving the two alone. Kimberly’s hands trembled slightly as she stood, trying to steady herself.
"Was it you who saved me last night?" she asked, meeting his piercing gaze.
Theo nodded. "It was. I’m sorry for what you’ve been through. I arrived just in time."
Kimberly’s eyes filled with unshed tears as she tried to process everything. "Why were you there? How did you even know?"
Theo’s expression grew serious. "I’ve been watching over you. Ever since the night we met, I haven’t been able to forget you. I’ve searched for you endlessly. When I heard there was a feast at the Night Walker pack, I went undercover as a security guard, hoping to catch a glimpse of you."
Kimberly’s breath hitched. "You’ve been looking for me?"
He stepped closer, his voice lowering. "Yes. That night... I felt a connection I couldn’t explain. And when I caught your scent last night, I knew something was wrong. I followed it to Derrick’s quarters."
Kimberly’s body tensed at the mention of Derrick. Her fists clenched as memories of his attack resurfaced.
"I hate him," she whispered, her voice shaking with anger. "He’s a monster."
Theo’s jaw tightened. "He’ll pay for what he did to you. I swear it."
Kimberly’s eyes met his, searching for sincerity. "Why do you care so much? What do you want from me?"
Theo hesitated for a moment before responding. "I want you to be free from him. To be safe. And..." He took her hands gently in his. "I want you to be my Luna."
Kimberly’s breath caught. "Your Luna?"
"Yes. You deserve someone who values and respects you. Not someone like Derrick. I can protect you, Kimberly. You don’t have to face this alone anymore."
For a moment, neither of them spoke. Theo’s sincerity was evident, but Kimberly’s mind was a whirlwind of emotions. Just as she was about to respond, Theo leaned in and kissed her softly.
The kiss was gentle yet full of unspoken emotion. Kimberly found herself responding, drawn to the warmth and safety he offered.
Suddenly, a blinding light emanated from Kimberly’s eyes, startling them both. Theo stepped back, shielding his face from the intensity of the light.
Kimberly gasped, feeling a surge of power coursing through her body. It was unlike anything she had ever experienced.
"What’s happening?" she whispered, clutching her chest as the light slowly faded.
Theo’s expression turned to awe. He dropped to one knee, bowing before her. "Moon Goddess... It’s you."
Kimberly stared at him, confused. "What are you talking about?"
Theo looked up at her, his eyes filled with reverence.
"The prophecy spoke of a woman who would unite all the packs and bring peace. Only a kiss of true love could awaken her powers. You... you are the Moon Goddess we’ve been waiting for."
Kimberly’s hands trembled as she touched her shoulder, where she felt a sudden itching.
Pulling back the fabric of her gown, she saw a glowing mark – the same strange symbol she had noticed weeks ago.
"This can’t be real," she murmured, shaking her head.
"It is," Theo insisted. "You’ve always been special, Kimberly. This is who you truly are."
Before she could respond, a knock sounded at the door. Maria entered cautiously, her face pale.
"Alpha Theo, there’s news from the Night Walker pack. Kimberly’s absence has caused chaos. Alpha Derrick is furious."
Theo’s expression darkened. "Let him be. He’ll soon learn not to cross me."
Meanwhile, at the Night Walker pack, Derrick paced furiously in the conference room.
"This is unacceptable! Kimberly has caused nothing but trouble, and now she’s gone!" He slammed his fist on the table, glaring at the elders and Elena.
Elena’s face was pale, her voice trembling. "What are you going to do about it?"
Derrick’s eyes flashed with anger. "If I find her, she’ll wish she’d never been born. I’ll hand her over to Heliandra the Sorcerer. Let her serve as his maid for eternity."
Elena’s heart sank. She rose from her seat, following Derrick as he stormed out. Her thoughts raced. "Those bruises on his wrist... Did he have something to do with her disappearance? I need to find out the truth."
Back in the servants’ quarters, Mohandia sat alone, tears streaming down her face. "I failed her," she whispered. "If anything happens to Kimberly, I’ll never forgive myself."
Determined, she stood and wiped her tears. "I’ll find her. No matter what it takes."
