The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

68 Patterns ….

Ramsey

After Cassidy left , I stood in my room , my hands clenched beside me as anger coursed through my veins .

I was tired of her manipulative threats but at the same time , I seemed to be playing right into her traps .

How did it come to this ? How had my life taken a turn and was so far out of control ?

A tug in my mind interrupted my thoughts .

It was Lenny , my Beta trying to reach me through our mindlink .

“ What is it , Lenny ? ” I asked dryly .

“ The Elders are in the meeting hall seeking an audience with you .

They say it’s urgent .

”

“ Seriously ? ” I groaned inwardly , rubbing the back of my neck as I closed my eyes , trying to gather my frayed emotions .

I’ve been hoping I would have a moment of peace today of all days but peace seemed to be an impossible word in my world .

“ What do they want to see me for ? ” I replied , not bothering to hide my annoyance .

“ They say it’s urgent , the Gamma Commander is here .

”

I scowled .

It was never good news with the Elders .

“ Fine , I’m on my way , ” I muttered ending the link .

I threw on my jacket , taking a deep breath before I left my room , and made my way toward the meeting hall .

When I got to the meeting hall , irritation simmered under my skin but I pushed it aside and entered the hall .

Inside , the Elders were already seated around the meeting table , they all had long looks on their faces .

I spotted Elder Mira and Elder Thorne Lycan of the White Lake Pack and Cassidy’s

father .

I could sense the tension in the air , something more than the usual politics I was used to .

I also noticed that the meeting had only the elders .

The members of the council were missing .

I crossed the room and took my seat , not bothering to hide my displeasure .

“ This better be important , ” I said , my voice was filled with exhaustion .

“ I really need to rest .

”

“ We wouldn’t have called you if it was important , Alpha , ” Elder Mira was the first person to speak .

“ We received a report from the Gamma Commander early this morning and we thought –you’d like to know .

”

“ You’re receiving reports directly now ? ‘ I asked arching my brow at her .

“ I thought I was the Lycan Leader here and that all reports should go through me first .

“ .

The Elders exchanged glances , deliberately avoiding mine before Elder Thorne spoke up .

“ The Gamma Commander has been trying to reach you for a month , Alpha .
