132 Reuniting with the Dark One … Ramsey Ive never trusted in the supernatural .

I was not a big believer of the Moon Goddess nor the Universe but I could feel an unease settle all over my body , spreading to every part of my body .

I didnt know if it was the stillness of the evening or the way that it seemed like the wind wasnt moving but something didnt feel right .

I could sense it .

Where I stood at the lakes bank , my gaze alternating between Lyla and Miriam as they stood .

Knee deep in the shimmering water .

The evening had grown darker , the moon casting its pale glow over the surface of the lake .

The High Priestess had stopped chanting and the lake was too quiet .

Lenny moved closer to me ; his voice low as he muttered .

I just received word from one of the Generals , that one of the Werewolf Pack is under attack by Ferals .

Although theyre doing everything to quell it , its getting severe .

I nodded absently , still gazing at the two figures in the lake .

How far is the Werewolf pack from us ? About two hours , Lenny replied .

Send them some reinforcements .

Those warriors with those weapons from Blue Ridge should be among too .

Just a few of them reach out to Alpha Nathan in the morning requesting for more warriors that can operate the weapons .

Okay ? He nodded and returned to his former position as he prepared to send the mindlink .

I turned my attention back to the figures in the lake .

From where I stood , I could see Lylas face clearly and suddenly , I noticed her expression was what it was moments ago .

Her brows were furrowed , her lips quivering and her hands clutching Miriams was filled with desperation .

Even Miriam who seemed composed at first , looked strained .

Her eyes were tightly shut , and her body was trembling slightly as if she was caught in a nightmare .

My stomach churned with unease as I approached the priestess .

Something is wrong .

They look .

terrified , The priestess turned toward him.

What do you mean ? Look at her at both of them , I said gesturing toward Lyla .

Her face is twisted in fear and Miriam doesnt look any better .

This isnt normal right ? The priestess studied them for a moment , her lips pressed into a thin line .

I can see it doo , she finally admitted .

But dont worry , they must have encountered a distant memory .

The cleansing process often brings to light shadows of the past .

Her words did little to ease my growing alarm .

I continued watching anxiously .
