The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

153 Nymeris II Lyla & Nymeris ( her wolf ) It was agony and ecstasy all at once .

My vision blurred , my senses sharpening as my surroundings came alive .

When the transformation was complete , I stood on all fours , my legs trembling beneath me .

I stood there momentarily , revelling in the sensation of being whole , feeling , hearing , and seeing everything .

So , this is what it means to have a wolf .

Youre so dramatic , Lyla , Nymeris chuckled , Now , you owe me a run .

Before I could formulate a coherent response , Nymeris was flying through the forest .

Her paws pounded the grass as she galloped through dense trees , and every muscle in my body worked harmoniously .

Her strides were long and fluid , pushing us forward with speed .

The wind was in her fur , and I revelled in the satisfaction of the run .

The scents of the forest , the wind rushing past my ears .

Gosh ! This is the best feeling fever .

Nymeris .

The name echoed in my mind like an ancient song , and for the first time since forever , calling her that felt like the best choice Ive ever made .

She ran , going deeper into the heart of the forest .

The path twisted severally and climbed , and soon she stopped .

This is my favourite spot , she murmured when we arrived at a waterfall nestled in between the White Mountains .

I gasped , staring at the beauty that greeted me .

Water cascaded over Jagged rocks , shining as clear as crystal , plus the moonlight made it look like a thousand silver drops .

Mist rose from the pool at its base , creating an ethereal veil that seemed to shimmer with hidden magic .

It was so beautiful that I stood there , gazing through Nymeriss eyes .

Then she pushed forward until we approached the waters edge and gazed into it .

For the first time , I truly saw myself .

The other night , in my dream , she had hidden in the shadows , and the only thing I had seen and remembered vividly was her two forked tail .

Now , she took my breath away for the second time .

153 Nymens Everything I thought I had seen that night in my dream paled compared to what I saw here in reality .

Nymeris was magnificent .

Her fur was a blend of silvery white a silver so pure it seemed to capture the moonlight itself- and golden hues that seemed to glow softly in the moonlight , as though somebody had weaved the light of the stars into her coat .

But it was her eyes that held the most magic .

I thought they were blue in my dream , but … They were mesmerizing one as white as freshly fallen snow , the other burning with the amber fire of the sun .

Both colors were a stark contrasty yet they merged in perfect harmony as I stared at her reflection .

Suddenly, a memory stirred in my mind .
