The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

Chapter 302 302: Fatal Mistake I

Lyla

We all stood outside the command center with our warriors lined up behind us.

Ramsey had managed to divide the warriors into seven equal factions. I was controlling one, which was filled mostly with the Ferals and the 20 elite guards. Lenny had over a thousand warriors with him, and Ramsey had about 500 Lycans who were battle-trained and from Alpha or Gamma lineage.

The other factions were made up of Warrior trainers and leaders, who led a minimum of 200 warriors and a maximum of 500. Their job was to ensure the safety of pack members and hold down the pack while we were gone.

Nanny and the Sigma wolves had also taken up position. They were trying to reinforce spells that would keep Nathan and his armies away, anything to help hold the fort. No one knew how terrible the battle would be or how fast things would escalate.

Also, we still had a reserve percentage of warriors who would take turns fighting in case the fight went on for longer than expected. Everything has been put into place.

The healers, the cooks…every hand was on deck.

I stood at the edge of the forest, twenty elite guards and three hundred fifty former Ferals surrounding me. The morning air was thick with tension as we prepared to execute our part of the battle plan.

"I still think I should send some of the Ferals with you," I told Ramsey as he finalized details with his lieutenants. "At least fifty would reinforce your flank."

Ramsey shook his head firmly. "You need them more than I do. Without your wolf, you're vulnerable."

"I have my abilities," I countered.

"Which is why you're still in the fight at all," he said, his expression softening. "But I need to know you're well protected."

I couldn't argue with his logic, though I hated the thought of him facing danger with fewer fighters.

The command center buzzed with last-minute preparations. Lenny stood surrounded by his faction, going over attack formations. Warrior trainers were reviewing their assignments to protect civilians and hold key positions throughout the pack. But one face was conspicuously absent.
