Chapter 102
Kimberly and Alpha Theo sat across from each other in the quiet living room, their faces drawn with tension.
The weight of their next move pressed down on them, leaving no room for error.
"We can’t defeat them from the outside," Theo said after a long pause, his deep voice breaking the silence.
"It’s too difficult, and I don’t want it to look like I’m trying to start a war between the two packs. The other Alphas might see it as a provocation."
Kimberly nodded slowly, her mind racing. "Then we need to find another way, something unexpected... something only I can do."
Theo raised an eyebrow, leaning forward. "What do you mean? What are you thinking?"
Kimberly hesitated for a moment before taking a deep breath. "I’ll have to go back."
Theo blinked, his expression shifting from confusion to alarm. "Go back? To Derrick’s pack? Kimberly, are you out of your mind? That’s suicide!"
"No, listen to me," Kimberly said, her voice firm. "I’ll go back, but this time, I’ll play dumb. I’ll act like I don’t remember anything about the night you rescued me.
I’ll tell them a story about being disoriented, not knowing who helped me escape. That way, they won’t see me as a threat."
Theo stared at her in disbelief. "And you think they’ll just welcome you back with open arms? Derrick isn’t stupid. He’ll suspect something."
