Chapter 107
RAMON’S POV
On my way back to my room, 1 saw Lorena seated on the bare grass, staring at the sky.
She was lost in thought, she didn’t hear me approach her.
I sat beside her, and touched her shoulders. She turned around, startled by my random appearance.
“What are you looking at?”
“The sky,” she replied coldly.
“Are you mad at me?” I asked.
“I can’t be mad at the alpha
I noticed she didn’t personalise my title. She would usually say something along the lines of, “my alpha.”
She was definitely angry. I had scolded her in front of everyone.
I didn’t have to explain myself to her. But I needed to explain myself to myself.
Seeing Sonia in that position had irritated me more than usual,
All I could think of was to save her.
“You should have let her be, tonight,” I said.
“Why?”
“Because she has done a good job in helping the pack. There are times we should push for peace, and not war.”
She turned to me sharply. That’s how it begins, Ramon. First, you’re pushing for peace when it comes to her. Next, she has you wrapped around her pinky”
I laughed at her concerns. They were funny and unfounded
Sonia could never have me wrapped around her finger. Whatever feeling this was, had something to do with the fullmoon that was fast approaching.
It heightened our mate bond, and made it impossible not to crave each other.
“What’s so funny! Am I a joke to you?”
Far from it, Rena”
-So why do you favour her words over mine? You don’t investigate her for possibly being a traitor, but you question my loyalty to you. Have I ever gone against your wishes?”
She was playing the manipulation game. I found it cute to an extent. She would do anything to preserve the hold she had over me
Everyone was playing a game. Some more transparent than the other. The problem Lorena had was her destructible ability to push too far.
“I don’t favour her. The full moon is coming soon. Whatever you normal,” I said
“You’re not sure about that. Nothing is set in stone.

A shudder ran through my spir
Touching her without restrictions would create a dance no one could ever be able to replicate.

Chapter 107
Sonia was pretty, no doubt. She even had pretty features that made me want to risk it all,
and indulge further than my limits.
But I was beginning to see that Lorena was right. I couldn’t afford to give in to my list. The only thing it would do, would be making things more complicated than they needed to be,
“Don’t think about things that won’t happen. Think happier thoughts, and give room for your heart to find peace. Things are going to return to normal after the full moon
“I hope so,” she muttered.
She returned her attention to the sky, whilst I watched her.
There was something very different about her that night. Something reflective. Like she had a burden in her heart.
I would have asked her what the problem was, but I knew it had everything to do with Sonia
For someone who loved to project confidence, she sure did look shaken.
1 rose to my feet, ready to return to my room. But I couldn’t just leave her alone.
“Let’s go in,” I said to her.
“Into your room?” She asked without looking up.
My
mind visualised my room. I couldn’t bring her in. Sonia was still there.
She would go crazy if she caught Sonia laying on bed, when I never allow anyone else to lay on it
“No you need to rest Il go to my room, and you’ll go to yours. It’s going to

her to your room. Is she awake now?” She asked.
I sighed in my heart. She was only hurting herself by listening to the gossip. I wish she would just drown out every voice that wasn’t mine.
Sonia was in my room, but I was here with her. That should be all that mattered.
“She was before I left the room to attend to something important.”
“So you left her in your room?” Her voice was sharp, and dark.
“I don’t think I want to keep being questioned, Lorena. Do you want to go in or not?”
“Not. I’d rather stay out here. You don’t need me anymore, a

“Oh common, don’t be dramatic. It’s getting cold. You should go take a rest”

“Don’t be silly, Lorena.” I rolled my eyes.
She wasn’t going to tell me what to do, I didn’t give a damn about her insecurities. Sonia would stay.
“You can’t even do that, yet you claim she has no control over you, I’ll go to my room, but like you said, it’s a new day.”
She rose to her feet, ignoring the offer of my hand to help her up, and walked away
I sighed at her retreating figure. Shaking my
my head, I continued
on my way to my room.
As I opened the door, I expected to see Sonia’s outline on my bed.
But much to my surprise, she was nowhere around.
“Sonia?” I called, despite knowing she wasn’t present
My eyes
fell on a piece of paper that had to have been ripped out from one of my books

“I returned to the clinic. Thanks for your help,” the note read.
She really left, I thought as I returned the note to the position I picked it from.
Suddenly, my room and my heart felt empty.
