Chapter 22 SONIAS POV Whats the festival of alphas ? I questioned Ivy again , because it felt like she didnt hear me the last time I did .
Oh , thats a festival where alphas and some other important members of each of the seven packs representing their packs , gather in one pack to celebrate .
To celebrate what ? I asked , observing that it was easier going back than it had been , coming to the lake .
Maybe it was because Ivy had done such a good job clearing the paths .
We could now move freely without having to feel the caress of grasses all over our legs .
Just life and health in general .
Its also used to broker peace .
The seven packs sometimes sign a treaty that gives them immunity from being attacked by each other .
So how come my father and alpha Ramon are still going at it , despite these peace treaties .
Thats because theyre two very strong willed alphas .
They both crave domination .
Its bound to happen .
So even if new peace treaties are signed this year it wouldnt stop the war ? I asked naively .
Nope .
Theyll keep fighting , and no other packs can intervene .
Amongst the big seven , theyre the biggest .
Who can intervene ? Yeah , youre right .
It sucks though .
I wish there could just be peace amongst everyone .
So youve never experienced a festival of alphas ? Im quite certain it has been held in your pack before .
I already told you .
My father never allowed me to go to any festivities , or even host any guests .
I was always indoors .
* Except the times you sneaked out to help your people in disguise ? I laughed .
Yeah , except those times .
But how do you know it has been hosted in my pack ? Because Im pretty sure Alpha Ramon wanted to be hosted at our pack , last year .
He was pretty pissed when it went to your pack .
Theres a rumour your pack is also in the lead to host it this year .
If its true , then I already feel sorry for you in advance .
Hoell take it out on you , no questions asked .
My heart did a double take , as strange sweat began to form a pool on my forehead .
Isnt it better ? I asked after a brief silence which I used to placate my nervousness .
What ? That it is held in my pack ? If it is held here and my family comes , and I cant even see them , it would break my heart so much Dont worry .
If it happens that way , Ill find a way to sneak you in , I promise .
Even if its after .
You have to see your family .
Would you really do that for me ? I placed my hand on my chest in shock .
Of course , she said .
I smiled as we made the round , and came into the compound of our new home .
My body jerked in shock when I saw two hefty men standing side by side .
Who are they ? I whispered to Ivy .
Jace and Jake .
Theyre twins , she said .
13 Ad Lies leading Chapter 22 Why are they here ? You heard her , Ivy raised her voice as she came to a halt .
Why are you here ! The alpha sent us to watch the both of you .
He doesnt want any sneaking out of any kind .
Jace , the twin with the blonde hair said .
I didnt know how I knew he was between the two , but my hunch has never failed me , so I always went with it .
And you two were the best options ? Ivy snickered .
Watch your mouth , maid , Jake warned with a growl .
I watched her roll her eyes but otherwise , didnt speak further .
Where did you go ? Weve been standing here for over an hour , Jace asked .
To get food .
Or did they give you food to bring us ? Ivy resumed questioning with a snot in her tone .
You dont deserve to eat when youre such a bitch , Jake spat .
Says the she held back , and shook her head .
Excuse me .
Shooting forward , she walked past them , and entered the house .
There went my dream of staying alone .
There were big burly wolves sent to look after us , like hawks .
To watch our every move and report back to the master .
Just when I thought life was about to get simpler .
You , what are you staring at ? Never seen twins before ? Or maybe you want to feel the magic of two meats deep inside of you at the same time I shuddered at the nasty suggestion , and hurried towards the barren garden .
I would rather watch the garden , than listen to these crude men .
What is she doing ? I heard one of them say from behind , but ignored them .
My curiosity over the barren land had gotten a hold of me .
I wondered if it would respond like humans if I decided to treat it .
I dropped to my knees , and brought my ears to the ground .
I know its crazy , but sometimes , the injuries I heal speak to me .
They tell me the best way to be fixed , and all I do is listen to them .
Like right now , I listened in hopes to find out what the problem was , and do my best to fix it … Hey , what do you think you are doing ? The twins voices became louder , but I outrightly ignored them and focused on the land .
Suddenly , I felt a slicing pain on my flesh , and I quickly jerked .
I jumped to my feet , and stepped away from the land .
It had happened so fast , but what I had just felt was the purest form of horror … I felt pain like I had never done before .
It was as if I had been there as a participant and not just a witness , Something horrible had happened on the site , hence the barrenness .
It was cursed .
A huge curse had been placed on it .
I could still feel goosebumps all over my skin as I shuddered at intervals .
Hey , are you a witch or something ? Why are you acting so strange ? Ignoring the twins , I turned around to see Ivy staring at me .
What happened ? She asked in a concerned voice .
Lets talk inside , I said , and walked past her into the house .
空 Exclusive Prefis 6:26 PM c c Chapter 22 Are you okay ? I heard her ask as she followed after me .
Its the land, I said , flinging the door to my room open .
After the fear and pain I just felt , raw anger had crept up on me .
I couldnt explain why , but there was a great injustice I felt at the surface of every other feeling .
Why ? Did you feel something ? Yeah , that its cursed .
I cant treat a cursed land .
Its not my curse to lift ! I screamed , and plopped into the bed , vibrating with pure fury .
Calm down , Sonia .
Calm down and tell me how you feel .
Horrible ! Horrible , I repeated and burst into tears .
It was agonising pain .

An unfairness that spurred tears of curses .
Who lived in this house before , Ivy ? What is being hidden from me ? I asked through heavy tears .
I dont know either .
I swear , I wish I did Alpha Ramon has to know then .
There has to be a reason he brought m e here .
I cant touch that land until the curse is lifted .
I just cant , I shook my head vigorously , as my tears consumed me .
