Knotting His Rejected Breeder

SONIA’S POV

I thought there was some heart left in Ramon. I was never the type to make a conclusive decision on anyone based on my first encounter with them. In Ramon’s case, I had not made a conclusive decision on Ramon even after so many counters. But I couldn’t keep ignoring the obvious.

He was simply full of hate. The kind of hate that was blinding. There was simply no good in him. I don’t know why it took me this long to finally admit it, but it was true. He was the meanest man I had ever come across.

I was fully aware my family had their faults. I would never try to shield them from criticism, or pretend peoples experiences with them are not valid, never!

However, I also would not punish another person for the sins that people close to them committed. As much as I tried to understand where he was coming from, I simply couldn’t see it. All I saw was a cruel man who would do anything to flex his power against those considerably weaker than him.

His pack was also a reflection of this fact. They were all bullies, every last one of them. Well except Ivy, and the kitchen wolves.

It was with this knowledge I decided to stop crying despite how hard my heart was hurting. There was no point. It would do nothing to soften his heart. I bet it even hardened it, and made him more irritated by me.

Also, I couldn’t continue to drown in my own tears, and self-pity. I rose to my feet, and dusted my butt, then wiped the tears off my eyes.

"I was beginning to get too irritated by your grating tears. At least you’re not as stupid as I thought for knowing when to stop," he said.

I didn’t have anything to say to that. I was quickly learning that as far as the alpha was concerned, everything I had to say was automatically wrong. Silently, I vowed to speak only when I’m asked a direct question that needs a response.

"Well since you’re up. Let’s go. I’m going to take you to where you’ll stay henceforth."

I waited for him to move, before following behind him. As we walked, my mind drifted to Ivy. I hoped she was okay. Being left alone with Lorena was definitely not something I would wish on my worst enemy. She was just as vile as Ramon, and thought the world needed to bow to her feet.

As we walked, I took the opportunity to observe the paths we followed. I hoped never to be as stranded as I had been the other at alpha Ramon’s quarters. It wasn’t as if it was bound to repeat itself anyway. Didn’t he say he was taking me to where I’ll be living henceforth?

I prayed it was far away from him. I never wanted to see him again. He had hurt me so bad I could still feel the burn on my neck. Even my wolf that would usually jump in excitement at the sight of him had gone into her shell. Good for her. I kept trying to tell her Ramon was not a good person.

I must have committed a grave sin in my previous life for the moon goddess to make him my fated mate. The only way out of that unfair deal was for one of us to die. I couldn’t deny I wouldn’t mind being the one to go at this point.

After walking through what must have been the entire forest in bloodmoon, I finally spotted a building. The first word that came to my head was isolation. He had seen his little plot to get everyone to hate me had miserably failed, if I could get at least one person to tolerate me. He had moved on to keeping me far away from the general public.

If only he knew I couldn’t be happier. Finally, the fear of going about my day and hearing those awful howls which signaled his presence would cease to exist.

It wasn’t the punishment he thought it was. I had lived all my life at the top of a tower. Secluded, but surrounded by seven brothers and a father. It was by sheer force of will I had been able to escape as much as I had, just to help as many people as I could.

Bring it on alpha Ramon. I wasn’t going to be sad about this.

We arrived at the building, and he came to an abrupt halt, then turned to me. ’’This is your house from today. You will take care of it daily. By that, I mean clean it thoroughly. If I send my wolves to inspect it and I’m told you neglected even a spot, you’re good as dead.’’

So he wanted me to take care of the environment I was living in? That seemed like a solid trade for not having to see him again. If I had to, I would mop the walls of the building just to keep it clean. Anything but the pain of his presence.

"I believe I was talking to you!" he snarled, making me jerk out of my head.

"I’ll do as you’ve said." I said the first thing that came to my head because I wasn’t sure what he wanted me to say.

"That’s not all," Lorena suddenly said, coming out of the house.

I looked past her, and saw Ivy behind her. The second she saw me, her eyes widened.

"Sonia, your neck!" she gasped.

I sighed internally. I was right. He had hurt me deep enough. My wolf was too weak to heal me. If it stayed like that, it was bound to scar. I didn’t want a scar that would only remind me of the monster Ramon was.

"Did Ramon do that to you?" Lorena scoffed mockingly. "Anyway, you deserve whatever is done to you. All you do is annoy everyone around you. I would do the same too if I was in his shoes.’’

’’Why’s Ivy here?’’ Ramon asked in the middle of her mocking laughter.

She suddenly pouted and drew closer to him. ’’My alpha,’’ she began, nuzzling his neck with her nose.

Ivy met my gaze over their heads, and made a cringe face. I held myself back from bursting into a feat of laughter quote admirably.

’’She wants to be best friends with the slave so badly, so I thought it was good they stayed isolated together. I’m honestly tired of seeing her face, anyway,’’ she continued.

’’Fine. Anything for you.’’ He stroked her face and she shut her eyes, feeling his touch.

I averted my gaze because I just couldn’t stand to watch their love. No matter how much I hated him, he was still my mate and I was bound to feel some type of jealousy watching him be affectionate with another woman.

’’It’s going to be as Lorena has said,’’ Ramon said when they pulled away. ’’Also, before you is a barren land. I’ve heard you have the gift of healing. The next time I come here, I want to see it has blossomed, else, the mark on your neck would be nothing in comparison to what I will do to you."

"Bye!" Lorena chuckled, as Ramon slipped his hand around her waist, and turned her towards the direction we were just coming from.

I watched them as they rubbed my powerlessness in my face. But I knew deep in my heart, the dynamics would not remain the same forever.
