The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger
Chapter 37

37 The rift in our world … 

Ramsey 

The cool mountain air did little to cool the frustration simmering inside me as I stood at the large , arched window overlooking the sprawling White Mountains .

It had been days since I’d brought Nathan here , hoping to extract information about Lyla but he was proving more stubborn than I’d anticipated .

I felt ashamed and angry at the same time that someone else had kept Lyla’s whereabouts a secret while I had rejected her without thinking it through it didn’t help that all attempts to locate her in the world had hit dead ends .

My hands tightened on the window ledge , my knuckles turning white as I replayed my last conversation with Nathan last night in my mind .

Behind me , Lenny cleared his throat gently .

“ Ramsey ,” he began cautiously .

“ You know this isn’t getting us anywhere .

Nathan’s not going to talk and holding him here isn’t going to make it easier to replace Lyla or make her magically appear .

You need to let him go , he’s the 

37 The rift in our world … 

Alpha Heir – you can’t continue keeping him here like this .

It’s against our laws .

” 

I clenched my jaw , refusing to turn away from the view .

“ I don’t care ,” I scoffed .

“ if Nathan has even the 

smallest clue where she is , I’ll get it out of him and I’ll let him go .

” 

Lenny took a step forward , “ Your engagement to Cassidy is tomorrow .

It’s time to forget about Lyla .

You rejected her , remember ? You made your choice .

If word gets out that you’re holding an Alpha Heir like this , it could lead to a revolt amongst the other Alphas and that’s the last thing we need now .

” 

“ Any word from the Panthers ? ” I asked , leaving window as I crossed the room to where the minibar 

was .

“ Are you even listening to what I’m saying ? ” Lenny sighed “ You’re obsessing over her at this point .

Stooping low to use Panthers .

What would your grandfather say when he replaces out that you’ve been wasting resources on Panthers because of a deviant ? ” Anger thrummed within me .

In a flash , I crossed the room and grabbed Lenny by the collar slamming his

back against the wall .

“ Don’t you dare … ” 

“ Dare what ? ” he interrupted meeting my gaze with a chilly one of his .

“ Come to your senses , Ramsey .

The Panthers are saying they will no longer work with you .

All the ones that were sent to go look for her always come back maimed .

It’s either they’re blind , their tongues have been pulled out and they behave like they’ve seen something terrible and they cannot speak .

The only one amongst them who still has his vision is mentally unstable .

He flinches at the slightest sound .

Maybe , it’s a sign that you need to forget about 

her .

I let my hands fall from his collar then walke settee .

“ I can’t , Lenny ! ” I cradled my head in my hands .

“ I can’t seem to stop thinking about her .

, It would be better if she was in our world … if I knew I could catch a glimpse of her occasionally .

It hurts so much , my heart … ” I trailed off , exhaling deeply .

“ I know , ” Lenny sighed “ I wished you had been more open to me , we would have found a way around this instead of rejecting her but this is your reality .

You’re our leader and you cannot afford to have your head in the cloud over some woman .

You must forget her

and … ” 

The door to the office swung open and Cassidy strode in , her scent and perfume filling the room .

I stiffened , angry at myself for allowing her so close these past few weeks .

Since she started working as my assistant , we’ve fought several times , and she was making my a living hell .

life 

“ Alpha ,” she said with a sly smile “ This file needs your signature on it , ” she said walking over my desk and placing it on top of the scattered papers .

“ It’s about tomorrow’s event and it’s a file from the security department .

It’s a list of people who will be and that’s their security clearance .

They no signature.

“ I’ll check it later ! ” I said gruffly .

our .

“ I already checked it for you .

All it needs is your signature .

We have less than 24 hours before the engagement , so … ” 

“ Fine! ” I cut her off and stalked towards my desk , 

reaching for a pen , I scribbled my signature on the file and tossed it to her .

“ Here you go .

Get the fuck out and don’t bother me ! ” 

37 The rift in our world … 

Lenny cleared his throat .

“ I’ll leave you two alone ,” he murmured and fled the office .

As soon as the door closed , Cassidy sauntered over to me , her eyes gleaming with intention as a smile played on her lips .

“ Why are you angry dear ? ” she asked as she sat on the edge of my desk fingers brushing against my shoulder .

“ You look angry and tense , ” she purred “ Did I do something wrong ? ” 

I removed her hands from my body and walked away from the desk, going instead to the settee .

“ I’m fine , Cassidy .

I just have a lot going on today and I desire peace .

Can you give me space ? ” 

“ What if I make you happy ? Give you this peace that you’re talking about ? ” she batted her eyelids at me and came towards me , sliding onto my lap before I could react .

“ Let me help you relax , Ramsey.

We shouldn’t fight all the time , please baby … 

Her hands slipped inside the collar of my shirt , trailing lightly down the back of my neck .

I stiffened , my mind immediately flashing to Lyla .

The thought of her made my chest ache as if I was betraying her somehow .

But anger flared within me .

Why should I feel guilty ? Lyla was gone and I had a future to think about – a future

with Cassidy .

Maybe , it was time to stop torturing 

myself .

– 

I turned to Cassidy , meeting her gaze as Lenny’s words echoed in my mind .

– Perhaps , it was time to move on .

With a low growl , I pulled her closer , crushing my lips against hers .

She responded eagerly , her hands roaming over my chest .

We were just getting tuned into the kiss when a knock on the door made me jerk away from her .

The door opened and my secretary came in .

“ Forgive me Alpha , But the White Mountain Moon Priest is here to see you .

He says it’s urge 

Cassidy slid off my lap , smoothing her skirt , while I rose to my full height , wondering what the Moon Priest wanted .

“ Send him in , ” I commanded .

Moments later , the priest entered , his presence filling the room with a solemn aura .

His face was a mask of serenity as his gaze flicked between me and Cassidy .

“ It is good that I found both of you together , ” he started without preamble .

His gaze lingered on me for a moment before he continued .

“ I’ve come to speak with you regarding the date picked for your Joining

37 The rift in our world … 

Ceremony .

” 

My brows furrowed as I stared at him with unease .

“ What about it ? ” 

The priest drew in a deep breath , his expression darkening .

“ The alignment of the stars and the rift caused by the arrival of the Ferals … they have upset the balance in our world in ways that cannot be understood yet .

While the alignment for your engagement tomorrow is favourable , I must warn you you cannot proceed with the wedding .

It would be dangerous .

” 

Cassidy crossed her arms , narrowing her at the priest .

“ What ? Why not ? And how is it dangerous ? ” 

“ The priest’s gaze turned cold as he faced her .

“ Every day until two years from now , should you marry , your union will bring doom upon both of you and our world .

The universe’s energy has been disrupted and until it heals or a Moonsinger emerges to restore the balance , one of you will die .

” 

“ A Moonsinger ? ” I repeated staring at him .

“ Yes ,” the priest nodded gravely .

“ A rift was caused by the arrival of the Ferals .

” 

37 The rift in our world … 

Cassidy scoffed , her face flushed with anger .

“ This is absurd , Ramsey , surely you’re not taking this seriously ? ” 

I hesitated , torn between my duty as Alpha and the nagging feeling in my gut that was telling me to heed the Priest’s warning .

“ We can’t just ignore it either .

The safety of our lives and pack must come first .

” 

“ The Union between the Alpha and the Luna who will occupy the White Moon Throne has never been a mere joining ritual , Cassidy Thorne ! ” The moon priest said angrily “ None of the previous Alpha and Luna got

The White Moon Throne is the heart of our world , if anything goes wrong , our world will be doomed .

” 

“ So what ? we just cancel everything ? Throw away weeks of planning because of some stupid stars and because an old man had a bad dream ? ” Cassidy’s voice 

rose .

“ Cassidy ! ” I chided her .

“ Watch your words .

” 

“ Why ? ” she fumed , turning to me with anger in her

eyes .

“ We’ve waited long enough to get here and now 

he’s telling us that we can’t marry ? So you can hook up 

with that Deviant ? ” 

“ Cassidy ! ” I growled a warning “ Watch your mouth .

” 

The priest raised a placating hand .

“ On the brighter side , the engagement ceremony can proceed and being engaged gives you almost equal access to all the privilgees of a Luna You can also use the time to strengthen your bond , to prepared for challenges ahead .

If your love is true , it’ll withstand the test of 

time .
