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 find Lyla or make her magically appear. You need to let him go, he’s the

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 finds 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

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
