The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

Chapter 329

Chapter 329: And the guilt dissipates

Lyla

Around us, the Ferals began to retreat into the forest, as if their connection to Nathan had been severed with his death. Cassidy stood frozen a few steps away from us, her face had gone white with shock.

A strangled cry escaped my lips as I held Nathan close to my chest, hating the way my tears were falling on his still body, mingling with his blood. He looked peaceful in death, the torment of the possession finally lifted.

The friend I'd known since childhood was gone, but at least he'd died free.

Ramsey touched my shoulder, silently comforting me as I sobbed. I felt like my heart would explode, and somewhere in my mind, I knew the threat wasn't over. This was only the beginning.

I pressed a gentle kiss to Nathan's forehead, saying a final goodbye to the boy I'd once known before gently laying him down on the grass.

"We need to finish this, whatever this is and fast," I said, wiping my tears as I rose to my feet. "I cannot last through another death. I don't care what I must do, but we'll take the war to Xander."

"Or maybe you should rest," Ramsey suggested quietly. "I know this is a little too much to unpack…"

"I'm fine," I stopped him mid-sentence, turning away to look at Cassidy, who was still standing there. "Yeah, I killed my best friend with my hands, but I'm fine. I'm beginning to get bored anyway, there must be something more exciting in these endless talks and fighting. I'm going to lose my mind."

Our warriors moved to tend to Nathan's body while Ramsey waited until they were within earshot of us. Caius muttered something about him still being around, and that is dangerous. We need to retreat into the safety of the region.

"Lyla…" Ramsey tried again to touch me, but I shrugged him off.

"Not now, Ramsey. I don't need your words of advice or pity. I am fine, and can I be alone? Now?"

I brushed past him towards the gates.
