Chapter 124
SONIA’S POT
I waited for my fate to be decided. Whilst I waited. I recounted my sins in my head.
I had broken a plate, and spilled food cooked with hard work all–over. But none of these compared to the sin of being my father’s daughter.
“Alpha Ramon, 1 didn’t mean to be dismissive. Sonia didn’t do anything to her. She pushed Sonia first, and then went ahead to slap her. It wasn’t fair what she did.”
“And who are you to judge her! Why would she be nice to someone who is an offspring of a monster? Does that make any sense to you!”
Rage flashed through Ivy’s eyes, and although I didn’t see it because my head was down, I felt it.
I held my breath, hoping she didn’t do anything stupid in a bid to defend me
The alpha may have a soft spot for her, but when it came to me, he wouldn’t mind punishing her.
“I think Ivy takes a lot of liberties, and I still don’t understand why. Sometimes, she behaves like she’s super important in this pack. I say until she’s taught a big lesson, she won’t learn to behave.”
“No!” I blurted
Everyone around turned to me, and 1 bit my lips nervously.
“What is the protest for!” Ramon asked me.
“Ivy didn’t mean to speak out of turn. This entire thing is my fault, I should be the one to be punished.”
“I agree with you. You should be punished for wasting food”
“My alpha, both things can be true. I think the two of them should be punished Lorena said, rubbing his arms.
My wolf began to charge up all over again. The unjust punishment she could take. But everytime she saw Lorena cling to Ramon, she grew a little
bit crazier.
“No one’s punishing anyone,” a woman said, stepping forward.
I turned to see her, and my breath caught against my
chest.
In one of my visions. I saw her standing close to the conflicted woman. Althoughs, she looked a bit more mature than she had looked in my vision. “With a

“You will remain silent in my presence, Lorena!” She suddenly growled, and everyone gasped.
“Alpha-
“Shut it Lorena,” Alpha Ramon said.
“Can I speak my mind, Alpha Ramon?” The older woman who I had concluded was an e elder, requested
“Please, go ahead,jenner.”
Jennert So that was her name! I thought
“The elders planned this event like we always do. I sat in our section, and saw everything that happened with my own eyes. I don’t care about anyone’s reservations concerning the girl, she raised her voice. “But when you purposely start shit for the sake of being a bitch on a special day like this, that kind of bluviour must be reprimanded.”
“What are you saying in essence” Ramon continues to talk calmly.

same man that was just mere seconds ago, ready to crucify me. It was obvious he had the utmost respect for this woman.

“Nara needs to apologise. She orchestrated the whole thing”
Conversations of protest broke through the crowd. I could just tell what was on their mind. The gall to ask that o
that one of their own apologise to their
I was caught in the middle of a mob, and all I wanted to do was curl my body into a ball, and cry.
“I agree. Carl stepped forward. I knew it was his voice the second he spoke. His words gave me the courage to lift my head. “Sonia here is part of the reason why the pack is healthy today. She risked her life, and sleep, to ensure the safety of the pack. That kind of person should be celebrated and not punished. Or have we lost our empathy as a pack?” He asked, looking around.
The tears in my eyes gathered into a pool. I tried my hardest not to blink because I knew if I did, it would rain.
“Ever since she came around, the peace we’ve enjoyed as a pack is no more, Alpha Ramon, I think you should punish her. That’s what I think,” Lorena said, holding tightly onto his arms.
My wolf growled silently again. I was fighting both tears, and my wolf. Left to her, she would have attacked already.
“Please don’t” I begged her in my mind. “Please don’t make a full out of me.
“I thought you were asked to be silent, Lorena? Is this how much wings you’ve grown! You can’t even obey your own alpha?” The woman questioned disappointedly.
“That’s enough,” Ramon stepped forward. “I think we should let the people decide who to punish. It’s only fair to put the power in their hands, just
for this case.
It was over for me. There wasn’t going to be any mercy on me. The wolves of blood moon absolutely hated me. They blamed me for being my father’s daughter. The man who have caused the pack years of pain.
What is
is it going to be? Should Sonia be punished? Or should Nara apologise?”

I closed my eyes, and waited for their judgement. Whatever it was, I would accept it. I ha
“If Sonia is
going to be punished, I should be punished alongside her, Ivy said, just before the crowd could pick a choice.
One of my eyes popped open. “What are you doing, Ivy?” I muttered under my breath.
“And why would we want you punished when you’re one of us?”
“For this.”
In a twinkle, she brought her hands back, and when it moved forward, it landed hard on the Nara girl’s face. Wave of shock travelled like light through the crowd, as they watched the girl bleed from the force of Ivy’s slap. “You see what I’m talking about? She’s so audacious!” Lorena cried out.
Ignoring her, Ivy faced the c

I could feel Ramon’s eyes on me. He probably wanted to step in himself, and handle my punishment.
It wasn’t like we could go against his wishes, if he decreed I was solely to be punished.
In fact, I fully expected him to do it. It was just the kind of thing he’d do
“We’ll let the alpha decide then,” the self proclaimed spokesman for the crowd said. “Alpha Ramon?” Ivy called boldly.
“Ivy,” I called in a low, panicking voice. I even dug into her hands to make her stop
However, she refused to lower her gaze, or even push her face to the side.
“Whipping. Your punishment would be public whipping,” he said.
My head shot up, and my gaze drifted to him

“That’s absolute madness, Alpha Ramon!” The woman said, but he was already on his way out.
