The Alpha's Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger by Ejiofor Dorcas

Chapter 41

41 Shadows of the past….

Miriam POV (Nanny)

I was hunched over a hardcover notebook in my small office at the back of the café. My brows furrowed in concentration as I jotted down Lyla’s recent symptoms, trying to make sense of the changes I’d been observing.

Since she started getting her pheromones every month, I made it my duty to note down the symptoms and help her prepare for the next month but this month had taken us by surprise.

Excessive heat and increased sexual behaviour

I jotted it down checking other cycles to see what was missing. Today was the first day and she was already showing signs associated with the last day of her heat. Something was not right. My pen hovered over the book as I pondered for a moment, trying to figure out if her trip to Blue Ridge Pack was the cause.

Though she had promised to tell me everything about what went down there, 1 wish she would spill already. I knew something had happened to her and I didn’t know why she wasn’t telling

mc.

A soft knock on the door interrupted my thoughts. I quickly closed the notebook and pretended to be working with the system in front of me. Sarah poked her head in.

“Mrs Grayson? Miriam?” Sarah gave me a baffled expression “Someone is asking for you at the

counter.

My eyebrows shot up in surprise. I wasn’t used to visitors – especially the ones asking for me by my name. I didn’t have any friends in town, nor did I socialize with anyone beyond the café regulars. Slowly, I dropped the notebook inside the table drawers, locking it before I rose to my

feet.

“Did the person leave a name or something?” I asked, my curiosity growing.

Hoping it was not another batch of Panthers. I’ve caught several of them this week hovering outside the café. They were all trying to get information about Lyla. Thankful for the little skills and knowledge I had, I had sent them home but in bad shape. I cracked my fingers, stretching my neck as I walked towards the door. I had to be prepared for anything.

Sarah shrugged. “He didn’t give his name. Just insisted to speak with you.”.

“Thank you

you, Sarah,” I flashed her a smile. “I’ll be out in a minute.

A moment later, I made my way to the front. As I approached the counter, my heart dropped into my stomach. Standing by the entrance was a man I had hoped to never see again. He stood there, his eyes darting back and forth from the café, he looked so uncomfortable and out of place.
