The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

154 Nymeris Ill Lyla ( Nymeris ) POV Suddenly , Nymeriss cars twitched .

A faint sound a distant scratching had caught her attention .

Without hesitation , she turned and started running in the direction of the scratch .

She tore through the forest with a speed that felt both exhilarating and terrifying .

As she ran, trees blurred past us , the wind howling in my ears , and then it was as if | had done this before .

Fragments of memories flooded into my mind .

| saw myself two nights ago , transforming into Nymeris and racing through the forest , my heart pounding with

adrenaline .

And then, in the end, lying down at the sclearing where she had finally manifested .

My eyes widened in surprise literally as the realization hit.

All those mornings | had woken up in the forest looking like | had just survived a fight , it was because | had come

forarun.

How was this possible ? How could Nymeris transform withoutknowing ? Nymeris , | called her in my mind ,

trying to make sense of it .

Those mornings in the forest ... it was you ? | tried to tell you , she said in between gasps .

I had no other choice but to do it .

Lives had to be saved .

Lives ? What do you mean ? What are you talking about ? How can you transform withoutknowing ? Like

theres no vivid collection except waking up in the morning and finding myself lying now in the forest with my

clothes dirtied and scratches all over my arms .

Why didnt you say something , at least ? Do you know how worried | was ? Because | couldnt communicate with

you, Lyla .

For sreason , | was able to act independently of you .

Since you are my host , it felt as if | could make decisions to rouse you and transform , and before you ask, |

dont have an explanation for that .

But ... My question was cut short as Nymeris burst into a clearing .

The light from the Moon was fading , and dawn was slowly streaking into the sky .

Nymeris paused , her eyes searching the tall trees barely illuminated by the light from the moon .

Her senses were sharpened , and her body tensed immediately as their scent wafted up to us .

| gasped with shock when | saw them Feral wolves , slowing coming out of the 12:30 154 Nymeris Her senses

were sharpened , and her body tensed immediately as their scent wafted up to us .

| gasped with shock when | saw them Feral wolves , slowing coming out of the trees .

They were snarling and growling , their eyes glowing red as they advanced toward US .

There were at least a dozen of them , and somehow , they looked a bit different from the ones | was used to

seeing .

They looked bigger , with gaunt bodies radiating an energy that was capable of making even the strongest of

warriors scared .

Instead of Nymeris retreating like how | would have done in my human form , she stood her ground .

The Ferals began to circle her .

Her lips curled back in a snarl as a deep growl rumbled from her chest .

Suddenly , they began to attack .

The first Feral lunged with its claws outstretched , but Nymeris was faster .

She sidestepped the attack as easily as one would a pup and then sank her teeth she twisted mid air, her

powerful jaws closing around its throat , snapping its bones with ease .

A single shake and the Feral collapsed .

Another Feral charged from her left , but Nymeris spun, raking her claws across its face in a blur that was too

fast for someone liketo follow .

Blood sprayed the ground as the Feral let out a pained yelp before collapsing .

Two more Ferals attacked simultaneously .

Nymeris charged at them , using her tail to wrap one of them, sending it flying into a nearby tree .

As its spine shattered , she closed her jaw around the skull of the second one and in seconds , it was lying dead .

The remaining Ferals hesitated , their red eyes flickering with uncertainty .

For at moment, | honestly thought they would retreat , but they charged head on, all of them at once .

Nymeria met them .

She leapt into the small group of Ferals , positioning herself in their centre .

Soon , it was a whirlwind of claws ripping through flesh , her jaws snapping down with bone crushing force .

One Feral tried to flank her , but she picked it up with her tail and slammed it to the ground .

Another Feral latched onto her hind leg , but Nymeris whipped around and crushed its skull with a bite .

The battle was fierce and brutal , with Nymeris suffering minimal bites and scratches here and there , but her

strength was unmatched .

Her movements were impossibly fast and fluid .

Id watched Ramsey attack those Ferals at my fathers funeral , and since he was a Lycan , | thought he was fast ,

but watching and feeling my wolf move through each Feral thrice 154 Nymers R One by one , the Ferals fell until

the clearing was silent except for the sound of Nymerias heavy breathing .

Suddenly , her ears picked up another faint scratch , and with the fluidity of an Eagle , she leapt onto one of the

tall trees .

In seconds , she tackled a Trinax to the ground .

Immediately , she went for its face , squashing its irregular , almost obscure face with both hindlegs and forelegs

In a few minutes , she was done the Trinax lay on the ground , not moving .

Her eyes scanned the clearing silently as if she was expecting more Ferals , but after a few minutes , nothing

happened .

She sighed as the tension left her body .

Not a single blood was on her fur.

Aside from the scratches , she looked like shed just arrived .

| felt a strange mix of awe and horror as | stared at the dead bodies of all the Ferals .

| just did thatand my wolf .

How | had gone from an innocent girl to a mass killer in seconds stunned.

Then, Nymeris began dragging the bodies of the Ferals , wrapping saround her tail , towards the edge of

the clearing .

As we reached the tree line , my breath hitched .

There , close to the base of one of the trees , was a growing pile of decaying Feral bodies .

Nymeris dropped the last Feral onto the pile and stood back , her chest heaving .

| stared at the gruessight , my mind racing .

How many had Nymeris killed ? How long had this been happening without my knowledge ? The Ferals are

growing stronger , and they seem to have taken note of all the places where there are no warriors stationed ,

Nymeriss voice filtered into my mind .

So, for a few days , there was no incident or attack , but theyve been infiltrating into White Moon through this

route .

And youve been fighting them ? | asked .

Yes ! There was no way to tell you so you could tell anyone or bring it to the notice of the Warriors , not that

theyd be able to fight the Ferals .

Anyways ... we need to start heading back .

Its almost morning .

Wait , Nymeris ! | called out to her, still trying to wrap my head around everything .

So, all those nights when you transformed without my knowledge , all those wounds and body aches and all of it

was because you were fighting Ferals ? Yes ! Someone had to do it , and what better person than? We need

to head back now .

| just stood there , still trying to understand everything , when the sound of footsteps | just stood there , still

trying to understand everything , when the sound of footsteps approaching us snappedout of my reverie .

Coming out from the forest were a group of Lycan warriors , and at the front leading them was no other but

Ramsey .

| froze for a moment as his eyes locked onto Nymeris , who stood there unfazed before his gaze flicked past her

to the pile of bodies , then back to her again .

What in the goddesss n... he muttered , stepping forward .

We need to leave , | muttered to Nymeris .

Relax , Lyla ... he doesnt know its you | watched as he stopped in front of her, his eyes shining with admiration

and awe .

What are you ? he asked , slowly reaching out for her .

Nymeris didnt flinch or anything , instead she allowed Ramsey to touch us .

Arent you the most beautiful werewolf Ive ever seen ? Did you do this ? | mean ... Ramsey paused .

When | saw you through the security cam earlier , | didnt believe my eyes .

| needed to cto see for myself .

Can you change back to your human form ? At least letknow who you are .

Dont you dare ! | snapped .

Nymeris ignored.

In response , she rubbed her body on his hands , placing her head tenderly in his outstretched palm .

What is that ? a voice said behind Ramsey .

When | looked up , it was Lenny pointing at Nymeriss tail .

What is what ? Ramsey asked , still holding Nymeris awkwardly .

Look at her tail .

Isnt that strange ? Leave , now ! | growled with annoyance .

A minute more , Nymeris purred , leaning into Ramsey .

| SAID NOW ! Sighing , she turned , and before Ramsey could say another word , we disappeared into the forest .
