Chapter 193: Chapter 193

The great hall was alive with whispers and quiet tension.

The alphas filled the long stone benches, their eyes sharp and curious.

Mona sat near the front, her expression unreadable, though her fingers tapped restlessly on the armrest.

The sudden urgency of this meeting unsettled her. Whatever it was, she knew it had to do with her , with Theo and Kimberly.

*What game are they playing now?* Mona thought, narrowing her eyes at the grand doors.

Soon enough, the heavy doors creaked open, and Alpha Theo entered with graceful authority. Beside him, Kimberly walked with quiet strength, her gaze sweeping the hall.

As they approached, the alphas and dignitaries stood in respect. Even Mona, reluctantly, bowed her head.

It was tradition, a rule she couldn’t break, no matter how much it burned inside her.

Theo and Kimberly took their seats at the front, offering a curt nod, signaling everyone to sit.

The supreme chief priest stepped onto the podium, his old voice echoing through the hall.

"Greetings, honored alphas and Lunas. We gather today at the request of the Alpha King and the Moon Goddess for a matter of great urgency." His voice held weight, making the room fall silent.

"I shall step aside now, for they have the floor."

Theo rose, his eyes sweeping the room like a predator surveying his territory. The air grew thick.

Even Mona could feel his power radiating through the hall. When he spoke, his voice was calm, steady, yet each word struck like a hammer.
