The Heart Of The Beast The Alpha's Pawn (Sonia and Ramon) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29

SONIA’S POV

I didn’t know what was happening. All I knew was one second I was waiting in my room for ivy to return, after Lorena had stormed out of the house with the promise of telling the alpha the twins had been compromised, and the next, all of these

servants came to the.

They said Ramon had sent them to dress me up because I was having dinner with him tonight.

I wasn’t expecting any of this. I would rather have spent my time alone, without any food. Lorena had tossed the pie in the trash, leaving me hungry the whole day.

But if hunger would have been enough for me to remain in my room, I would have preferred it than this invasion of my body.

First, they led me to the bathroom and scrubbed me from head down to my toes. Then they brought me out, and began to massage my body.

They had questioned the scar on my face, and that was how I knew my potion worked, because there was no question of the

one on my neck.

I told them I hit my cheeks on a wall. They obviously didn’t believe me, but pretended to. I couldn’t see what they added, but whatever it was had done a good job of covering the redness.

I was starting to get concerned about my injuries not healing without additional help. Day by day, my wolf grew weaker. No matter what I did, there was no helping her if I couldn’t even get proper food.

Rest was one thing, but food was the fuel she needed. Unfortunately, it had been taken away from me.

If things continued this way, my wolf would be unable to carry on in no distant time.

A brush was brought to my hair, and I couldn’t help but wince in pain as they started to brush it.

I couldn’t tell them it was still sore from the dragging it received. It would be my word against Lorena’s, and nobody was going to believe me over her. Especially not Ramon.

I didn’t know I was crying, until the woman brushing my hair, paused, and lowered her head.

“Are you alright, child?” She asked.

“I am I forced a smile.

“But you’re crying.” She pointed out.

That was when I realised I was indeed crying.

“My scalp is really soft. I guess it just hurts with all that brushing.”

“I’m so sorry, child. I’ll be more gentle.”

An oil was placed on my scalp, and it soothed it so much, I closed my eyes and just felt its softness

The brush went milder into my hair, and I sighed.

Soon, they were done with my hair. I was brought to my feet and led to my bed where my dress was.

The silver glittery dress sparkled in my eyes. It had been a long time since anyone pampered me this much.

I was beginning to suspect there was more to it than showed.

Kamon couldn’t have just sent them to do this for me because he was feeling nice. There had to be something involved.

As I stepped into the dress, my heart began to thump loudly against my chest.

Things were getting real

I was drawn to the mirror, and I heard them begin to gasp and howl.

“Oh My God ma’am, you’re so stunning!”

I couldn’t help but smile. I did look like the old me. The thought brought tears to my eyes.

“Are you ready?” I was asked.

I didn’t know who was asking, but I nodded anyway, I was turned around, and led out of my r

room.

There was a car outside, waiting to drive me. I wish I could ask where I was being driven to, but who was going to answer me?

I missed Ivy dearly. She would have at least explained the reason for all of this. I was left in my confusion, so I closed my eyes. and waited until we arrived.

A thought crossed my mind, and I shuddered. What if my father had come? What if he had finally decided to settle the dispute so I could return to the pack? It would explain why Ramon decided to clean me up.

Perhaps, he didn’t want my father thinking he had tortured me.

If it were so, then I would go with the arrangement. I would pretend like my life depended on it, because it did. If I had to put on the best act of my entire life, I would do it gleefully.

I suddenly became optimistic. My father was around, and he was here to fetch me.

With that thought in mind, I let go of my fears, and just embraced the unknown. Soon, Ramon would be a thing of the past.

When I am back with my father, we could discuss how to sever the fated mate bond. There had to be something done about it. I didn’t want to be tied to Ramon forever. I just couldn’t

I felt the wheels roll to a stop, and opened my eyes. It was right in front of Ramons quarters. I couldn’t forget the opulence, so of course I remembered the building, and all its intricate details and designs.

My side of the door was opened, and I stepped out of the car. There was someone there to welcome me, and usher me in.
