The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

138 Who am I supposed to be ? Lyla Ramsey stared at me for a few seconds and then shook his head .

Is that how much youre thirsty for a man ? What will your beloved boyfriend do when he hears you say this ? I rolled my eyes , exhaling deeply .

My heart has stopped racing at least but the memory everything still lingered in my mind .

Whatever ! I hissed .

of I know this is the wrong time to ask this but … are you happy with Nathan ? Does he make you laugh at least ? Ramsey asked suddenly .

I paused , looking for the best way to reply him .

He doesnt make me cry at least , I sighed again , loving the way he flinched at my accusation .

Ive known Nathan for a long time and hes always treated me well but the way he treats me now ! I smiled Its much better .

Its clear , he doesnt see me as a friend anymore and that he loves me .

He nodded with a quiet smile .

Im glad .

How about Cassidy ? Do you love her ? He smiled and raised his face to look at me .

Love is a deep word but I care enough for her , so much that I think I can marry her and stay married .

Theres not much to marriage and we will both be busy with doing our duties , so Im sure itll be easy .

So transactional , I sucked my teeth Both of you deserve each other .

Im sure I and Nathan will do just fine too .

Hes … But I still love you … He interrupted , making the words I wanted to say freeze on my lips .

I dont think I can stop doing that .

If Nathan doesnt treat you well … He will , dont worry ! I said quickly .

The room was growing grim .

Can we stop all this emotional talk ? Its getting on my nerves already .

We stayed like that for a few seconds before he broke the silence again .

The Dark One , what does he look like ? he asked .

As I opened my mouth to respond , the door opened and Nathan , Nanny and the High Priestess re entered the room .

Nathan , now cleaned up but pale , let out a small , wry laugh as he came straight and sat on my bed .

If the Dark One looks anything like what I saw in her mind … he paused , reaching for my hand Id say hes ridiculously handsome .

It annoys me so much .

Yes , Nanny laughed , she seemed collected too .

I thought so the first day I saw him .

He looks .

nothing like the evil written about him .

Is that even his real appearance ? Everyone turned to the Priestess .

He should even be better than what you saw , Im sure .

Hes been around for a long time .

So , 138 Who am I supposed to ba ? there might be changes but theres no talk about him taking the appearance of anything else .

So … yeah … How handsome can he be ? Ramsey scoffed .

Tall , well built , sharp jawline , piercing eyes hes got the whole dark and dangerous look , the kind that ladies love .

Its so infuriating , Ramsey rolled his eyes but didnt say anything further .

So , the High Priestess stepped forward , Can you tell us what happened ? Do you remember anything at all ? Even the tiniest of detail should not be left out .

Ramsey raised a hand , cutting her off .

Mother Liora , not now .

She needs to rest .

Im sure therell be time to talk later .

The priestess hesitated , her gaze flickering between me and Ramsey before she nodded .

I guess 50 .

Also , Ramsey added straightening .

Its better we move her from White Lake Pack .

Ill feel at ease if I know shes not here .

We could send her to White Moon or Blue Ridge ? his gaze strayed to Nathan .

I think home would be better Nathan nodded .

Why were they suddenly acting like friends ? The priestess frowned .

Shes not fit to travel yet but youre right , we should move her elsewhere .

We could keep her in your pack , Lycan Leader , then when shes strong enough shell return home .

Everyone nodded at her suggestion .

Ramsey started towards the door , before he turned to leave , he announced .

Ill go now and arrange transport .

As the door closed behind him , my mind whirred with thoughts as Xanders words came to me .

You will not end up with the Alpha .

Its either me or Ramsey .

Could it be true ? Could Ramsey after everything be tied to my fate in ways I didnt fully understand ? But he was marrying Cassidy soon ? Should I take Xanders words to heart ? My gaze drifted to Nathan , he looked tired but he was massaging my legs , muttering something about circulation .

It would break his heart if we didnt end up together but how ? As far as I could see , there was nothing in the way of 1 and Nathan becoming mates .

But , I couldnt resist Xanders assessment .

And then there was the wolf .

Id heard the voice , felt its presence in that dark room and we had.

spoken .

Was it real , or just a fragment of my imagination ? The High Priestess had insisted that Moonsingers didnt have wolves and though the wolf had given me a vague explanation , it was all too confusing for me .

My gaze drifted to the door , Ramsey had just exited .

The memory of his gentle touch , warm and reassuring still lingered .

Despite the rift between us , I always feel comfortable around him .

Naanite his saldnann Ihad mann mauathlua umanalına la bila a mulat nain that 138 Who am I supposed to be ? iny confusion .

And then Nathan again ! My gaze returned to him .

I saw the worry etched on his face as he was watching me as if I might disappear at any moment .

He had stopped massaging my feet and was doing my hands .

2 My heart ached at the unanswered questions .

For the first time in my life , I saw what could become of this world if I refused to take up my duty as a Moonsinger .

Thanks to Xander , I had seen another aspect of his power and heard a little of what he planned to do .

As someone who has always run away from confronting her emotions , I wanted clarity answers to all the questions swirling in my mind .

But how would I find them if I left ? If I go back to the human world … would I be fulfilled ? Even back then , it was never enough … I was never truly happy but these days , I was catching glimpses of happiness here and there .

Maybe staying would not be a bad idea .

My eyelids drooped ; I was struggling to stay awake but it wasnt just working .

I had a wolf and I was the Moonsinger .

The last thought I had before sleep claimed me was simple but overwhelming : Who am I supposed to be ? And somewhere in between sleep and wakefulness , I prayed silently that I would never betray Nathan … because it felt like that storm was brewing overhead .
