Chapter 57
SONIA’S POW
I was standing at a corner with alpha Daisy, since she insisted on keeping me company, when Cade found me.
Swith rose to my feet and went to him. “Cade,” I called.
Princess. I wanted to tell you I’m leaving.”
like that? Can’t you stay tonight, and leave
and leave tomorrow!” My eyes twinkled rapidly, and out of my control
Is there a reason you want me to stay back! Are you in trouble!” His voice took a suspicious tone.
“No.” she shook her head vigorously, chiding herself for continuously falling into the trap. “I just think it’s really late.”
“When has that ever been a problem?” I watched him smile, and it touched my heart. “Your brothers are creatures of the night.”

“Careful. Father said never to describe ourselves with that language. I could never understand why,” I said.
He stroked my hair, and then my cheeks with a long finger.
“You look so much like her,” he blurted out. Then as if he had not said anything, he stepped away, just as Seth arrived.
Today was definitely a strange day. I had heard more mention of my mother than ever before
The last person I expected to talk about her was Cade. In fact, he had been the most evasive when it came to talking about her.
“We’re leaving. Sonia, Seth said.
“Yeah. Cade just told me. I had hoped you’d stay the night, but I guess you have to leave.”
He grabbed my hands in his. “If it eve
ever gets overwhelming, find the waters. I hear you”
He pulled me into his body, and hugged me tightly
Behind him, I saw Cade’s eyes resting on alpha Daisy, whilst she did everything to avoid his gaze.
I really don’t know what the story was, but there was definitely history there.
With Daniel escorting us, which was really just keeping an eye on me, I followed my brothers to their car.
We hugged, and I bade them goodbye.
As I turned around, I saw Ivy, I didn’t think, as I ran towards her, and stopped just in front of her,
“Come here,” she said, and pulled me into a tight embrace.
I cried with my head resting on her shoulders, and she patted my back.
“I’m sorry I didn’t come earlier. I should have been here”
“You’re here now,” I said amidst tears, and she hugged me tighter.
Daniel escorted me back to the room I had woken up in twice.
Once, to find myself naked and tied. And the second time, I was suddenly clothed and untied.
Ivy couldn’t follow me into the room because Ramon’s order was for everyone that wasn’t me to stop by the door.
I entered the room, and waved Ivy goodbye.
11 be around just in case you need me,” I heard her say, as the door shut behind me.
I went to the bed, and sat on its edge. My limbs feel weak and tired.
Days like these I just wanted to sleep for eternity. But I had a feeling I couldn’t get that peace

The door opened, and food was

by had found a way to bring the food. It gave us a few minutes to chat before she had to leave again.
When the door opened the second time, it was to prepare a bath for me.
I took my bath, and changed into fresh clothes that were provided for me.
It was a short simple silk gown, with thin straps.
Polling my hair out of the band I always use to hold it in place, I let it flow.
I felt refreshed, because it had been quite a while since I got such a luxurious treatment
I returned to the bed, and laid down again. Knowing this time, I wouldn’t be able to fight off the sleep
From a distance. I could hear the drums still playing. I didn’t get to witness what the festival of alphas was truly about, but at least I got some assurance my family was thinking about me.
The drums, and trumpets, and screams began to fade in my head, as I got drowsy.
My eyes had finally closed when I heard a knock on the door. I was too weak to respond, so I just laid there.
The door opened, and although I was close to unconsciousness, his aura strengthened me.
I straightened up, and my eyes met him in the darkness.
“Sonia,” he ca
called to me
I rolled out of the bed, and walked to him. His hands stretched out and I took it
“Why are you here?” I asked with a mix of curiosity and confusion.
“I couldn’t resist. I don’t know how long I can resist,” he confessed
My body reacted strangely to his confession. I didn’t know if it was the alcohol doing the talking or really him.
“But-”
“Shhhh.” His fingers covered my lips. And as simple as that act was, my wolf woke up, purring in response.
“She likes to sing,” he said.
“Who!”
“Your wolf. She’s mostly invincible, but I can feel her sometimes,” he said, letting go of my hands.
He began to walk around me, making me feel naked under his gaze.
“Silk suits your skin. They’re b both delicate, sensual, inviting
Every word was more satisfying than the previous.
Subconsciously, I liked my neck to the side, and a purr left
my throat.
“Tim going to regret coming here when I wake up at dawn. Which is just in a few hours time. But I
But I couldn’t resist, Sonia.”
I felt him behind me. My body rested on his like a glove, as he sniffed my tilted neck. “I tried, but I just couldn’t. You were supposed to come to me, but I had to come to you.
Tjust-
“Im going to regret this, but I want just a taste.“
“Please-” I was out of breath, and he had not even done anything to me.
“No, Sonia. Please,” he said, and a hand covered my neck.
