The Heart Of The Beast The Alpha's Pawn (Sonia and Ramon) novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123

SONIA’S POV

The boy Ivy introduced me to was

me to was super funny

funny. He told the most outrageous stories in the ca

e calnest voice.

I found myself laughing so hard, I forgot it was a buffet, and I was supposed to eat.

After tonight, only the moon goddess knew when I would have that much food selection.

But every time I tried to move away, he jumped into another story, and I was instantly glued.

I didn’t even notice Ivy had slipped away, until she returned with two plates in her hands.

“Hey, take this. If you listen to Moon, you’ll be here all day.”

“Your name is Moon!” I smiled, as 1 accepted the plate from Ivy, and even muttered a thank you.

“To be fair, my parents weren’t that creative,” he chuckled

“Weren’t!” I lifted a quizzical brow.

“Yeah, they died ten years after the attack. Unfortunately, they never got over the trauma.”

“What a–ph”

My mouth grew bitter. Because of my father, so many people had lost their identities.

I never really

ly thought of it that way

way, and always felt down the road, there would be room for redemption.

“Hey, you don’t have to be sad about it. The alpha found most of us again, and look at the pack now

“I know, I’m still sorry?

You know, I always wondered why many members of the pack wouldn’t give me a chance. I thought it was just the alpha’s orders. But now, I can understand why they’d want nothing to do with me. I’m a horrible reminder of a horrible tragedy.”

“Stop it, Sonia. You’re not your father. You didn’t do anything.” Ivy said angrily.

-She’s right. Sonia. C Can I call you Sonia?”

“I wouldn’t have you call me anything. In this pack, you’re of higher ranking than I am?

“Well, that’s objectively not true,” he laughed.

“It isn’t?” I inquired.

“Yep. You’re supposed to be the alpha’s mate, right?”

I scoffed. “That’s just a mistake. I’m sure one day, we’d come to find out that there was a flaw somewhere in that destiny.”

“Why do you always do that?” Ivy dropped her spoon, and it rang loudly on the plate.

Thankfully, we were a little bit isolated from other gatherings.

I don’t

understand. Why are you mad at me?”

“Because you talk like everything’s set in stone. As if things cannot change. I have hope that whatever this stupid fight is about, one day, there will be ptare. You and Ramon will find your way to each other, because it is fate, and destiny.”

-I think so too” Moon stroked my ar

I looked down, shocked by the feeling that just rushed through me.

“Your hands,” I said.

“There she goes changing the topic” Ivy hissed in frustration.

Chapter 123

“No Ivy, I’m serious. I’ve read somewhere about hands like these. They make the best precious stones.

Moo chuckled nervously. “What are you talking about? I wasn’t even brave, or strong enough to make the list of the pack warriors. How is it possible to know anything about precious stones, when I’m nothing but a servant?”.

“Don’t say that. In ancient packs, there were certain people who enriched the pack’s bank. They were usually very close to the alpha’s. In some cases. they were even the alpha’s bela’s.”

“Are you sure you haven’t lou your mind? With all due respect, of course”

“No, I think she’s dead serious. Sonia doesn’t lie, Ivy said.

“I wouldn’t lie about something like this. Your hands are very special. Someday, you’ll be a well renowned young man.”

He reached for my shoulders, and patted it gently

“Thank you for your kind words, but I’d much rather leave now, before the alpha tears me apart with just his eyes.”

“What are you talking about?” I added, rolling my head in confusion.

When I turned towards his directions again, he had walked away.

That just happened!” I questioned Ivy in confusion.

“I think it’s Ramon. He scared him off with his eyes”

I stared towards the direction of Ramon, and he had his hand resting on Lorena’s waist, whilst she fed him.

My wolf growled with jealousy, as I moved my eyes
