154 Nymeris III Lyla ( Nymeris ) POV Suddenly , Nymeriss cars twitched .

A faint sound a distant scratching had caught her attention .

Without hesitation , she turned and started running in the direction of the scratch .

She tore through the forest with a speed that felt both exhilarating and terrifying .

As she ran , trees blurred past us , the wind howling in my ears , and then it was as if I had done this before .

Fragments of memories flooded into my mind .

I saw myself two nights ago , transforming into Nymeris and racing through the forest , my heart pounding with adrenaline .

And then , in the end , lying down at the same clearing where she had finally manifested .

My eyes widened in surprise literally as the realization hit me .

All those mornings I had woken up in the forest looking like I had just survived a fight , it was because I had come for a run .

How was this possible ? How could Nymeris transform without me knowing ? Nymeris , I called her in my mind , trying to make sense of it .

Those mornings in the forest … it was you ? I tried to tell you , she said in between gasps .

I had no other choice but to do it .

Lives had to be saved .

Lives ? What do you mean ? What are you talking about ? How can you transform without me knowing ? Like theres no vivid collection except waking up in the morning and finding myself lying now in the forest with my clothes dirtied and scratches all over my arms .

Why didnt you say something , at least ? Do you know how worried I was ? Because I couldnt communicate with you , Lyla .

For some reason , I was able to act independently of you .

Since you are my host , it felt as if I could make decisions to rouse you and transform , and before you ask me , I dont have an explanation for that .

But … My question was cut short as Nymeris burst into a clearing .

The light from the Moon was fading , and dawn was slowly streaking into the sky .

Nymeris paused , her eyes searching the tall trees barely illuminated by the light from the moon .

Her senses were sharpened , and her body tensed immediately as their scent wafted up to us .
