The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

Chapter 321

Chapter 321: Old secrets...

Ramsey POV

"How many are there?" Lyla asked, and I could see her brain running in motion, already thinking of strategies.

"Nearly their entire fighting force—about three hundred warriors. They've set up fortified positions all along the border," I replied.

"And our response?"

"I've mobilised our defence units, but I've ordered them not to engage unless attacked," I explained. "I'm hoping to resolve this diplomatically first. I've sent a messenger requesting a meeting with Elder Thorne at dawn."

She nodded. "Good. We need to understand their motivation before we fight. This isn't like the White Lake Pack—we have a common enemy, we should be fighting Xander side by side, not fighting each other, and I refuse to believe that Elder Thorne, with all his sensibility, would pick a fight because you refused to marry his daughter.

"Elder Thorne is a very shrewd man. He would never do anything if he thought he would lose. There must be a reason for this," I agreed thoughtfully. "Something significant must have changed for him to take such action."

"The Dark One," Lyla suggested. "You think he has gotten hold of Elder Thorne? But what on earth would he want? I doubt if his biggest desire is to see you married to his daughter?"

"It might be the Dark One's doing, who knows?" I agreed. "Or perhaps Cassidy has convinced her father that we're the threat."

"She doesn't think we were threats. She only mentioned that she was supposed to sit on the White Moon Throne with you to unlock its power, which was her destiny. It doesn't make sense," Lyla sighed. "What will you do now?"

"I'm meeting with the War Council. I need to hear their opinion before we proceed. Like you said, I'm done trying to get everything without a touch of violence, which seems inevitable at this point."

She tried to rise from the bed. "I should come with you to the meeting. As Moonsinger, my presence might—"

"No," I said firmly, gently pressing her back against the pillows. "You're still healing, and you should rest more. I'll need you for tomorrow. Besides, anything can happen at any time. We're no longer safe in our pack."

She wanted to argue, but her eyelids were growing heavy. "Promise you'll wake me if you really need my help," she murmured.

"I promise," I said, leaning down to kiss her forehead.

She yawned again. "I love you, Ramsey Kincaid. Always…"
