Chapter 95
RAMON’S POW
From the door, I watched Son him into one of my wolf’s ears
The man who was struggling before suddenly started to settle down with every note she hummed.
“You’re doing really good, she paused to say. “Leave him alone,”
The guards exchanged glances, then looked at the pack doctor. He nodded in response, and then let him go, and stepped back.
She sat now beside him, stroking his hair as she hummeil
I was fascinated by whatever it was she was doing. This would be the first thne I saw anyone heat this way.
It was definitely unconventional. I had been in disbelief for a while, but it was starting to look like she actually knew what she was doing
me time, the man closed his eyes, and drified into sleep.
Her burns came to an abrupt end. At the same
“Yes” She pumped a fist in the air, and jumped to her feet.
I had never seen her so jolly before. She looked like she was in her element right here.
“Is that all The pack doctor questioned
She opened her mouth to respond, when she suddenly turned.
Our eyes met, and she jerked, appearing startled by my presence.
“Alpha Ramon,” the wolves present in the room said in sync, and bowed.
My eyes remained on Sonia who had averted her gaze.
She appeared rigid, and stiff. As if the light had been snuffed out of her.
I wondered if that had to do with my presence. I knew I should be happy she had the good sense to fear me, but I didn’t like how disturbed 1 actually felt.
“I see you’ve settled in already,” I purposely directed at her
“Thave, she replied without looking up.
“Good. I just came to check the situation of the clinic. I don’t understand why more of my wolves are falling sick. Do you have an explanation for me now?” I turned to the pack doctor.
He sighed, and shook his head. “Unfortunately, I don’t
“Well-
“Can I ask a question?” She cut through my words.
When she realised what she had done, she bit her lips.
“Go ahead” I nudged my head
“Can I see what the other patients look like? I may have an idea”
As much as I needed her in the clinic. I didn’t want her to think she was indispensable.
“You’re not to ask for my permission when you have a superior. The pack doctor is your superior.”
I knew I was intentionally being an ass, but I just didn’t want her to start thinking she had enough power to demand things.
She turned to the pack doctor at once. “Can I check the other patients?”
Just as she was asking, a loud howl echoed through the walls of the clinic.
I jumped out at once to see one of my warriors being led in through the halls. 1/3

He was convulsing like a feverish child at the cuffs of death.
“What the hell!” I screamed, and ran after them.
I entered the room he had been taken to, and on closer inspection, discovered it was jason
He was second in command of the warriors. Right after, Daniel.
“What happened?” questioned the guards that brought him in.
“He was in his room when the attack happened”
Sonia dashed into the room, and went straight to his bed.
My eyes squinted, when she regarded him with her e
eyes first
He was writhing and howling Clearly in pain.
“That’s the exact same thing that had been happening to the wolves being brought to the clinch the pack doctor said, coming inside too.
“Be careful, miss. He breaks into these violent attacks at intervals” One of the guards warned.
My hands instantly folded, feeling an intense need to protect her.
It was a given
she was my
was my mate, and our bond dictated 1 had some protective instincts towards her.
I just happened to be better at suppressing my feelings. But, not this time.
She didn’t even listen to what anyone said, as she leaned into the writhing man
“Hey, could you tell me where it hurts the most?” He sprang up, and sneered at her.
She jumped back, and I was within her in a heartbeat
With one hand, I forced Jason back to the bed, pinning him to it.
“Question him.” I said to her.
My hand was firmly on his chest, and I could guarantee he wouldn’t be able to move
I felt her swallow, before she stepped forward ag
“Where does it hurt the most?” She asked.
He grabbed his stomach, and began to twist it
“That’s enough“” I growled.
She flinched at the way I suddenly snapped, but quickly composed herself again.
“Do you have a diagnosis in mind?” The pack doctor quizzed her
“Poison.”
“What?” Echoed around the room.
“Poison isn’t sometimes intentional,” she quickly explained. “It could be from waste residues, passing through a channel that is generally consumed. For example-” her voice trailed as her eyes widened. “Water!” She blurted
“Water? But we all use the same water, and neither of us are sick,” I said.
“Sometimes, our wolves are strong enough to fight off some poisons. Other times, our wolves are already compromised, leaving the body to fight for itself. In a case where the body can’t, the sickness progresses faster than usual. Considering how frequent casualties are turning up, I’ll say it has to be from the water”
1 let go of the man, she stood in front of her. “Are you sure about what you’re saying?”
“It’s a guess. It could be from another source
“I don’t need you to be making wrong guesses. To investigate, I’ll have to close the water channels, and even drain a few sources. I don’t want to scam

a mission that would turn out to be a waste of time,” I continued in a warning voice.
“You don’t have to do all of that. There’s a way to test if the water is actually poisoned,” she replied.
There was something different about her response. Something strong, and confident. You could clearly tell this was her forte.
“How?” I asked.
“It would require you to trust me,” she said, catching me completely off guard.
