The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger

Chapter 336: Unexpected Allies

Lyla

As Ramsey and I returned to the pack house, the afterglow of our intimate moment still warming me, I noticed a group of people standing in the front courtyard.

They weren't pack members—that was clear as soon as we drew closer. These strangers wore warrior clothing in colours unfamiliar to the White Mountain region: deep purples, midnight blues, and burgundies rather than the traditional golden colour that was the White Mountains'

Seth was the first person to see us, and immediately, he announced Ramsey's presence: "The Lycan Leader is here."

Immediately, the warriors formed neat lines, standing at attention. Ramsey walked between them, his hand gripping mine as he guided me forward. We stopped before someone with their back turned to us, speaking quietly to another warrior.

The figure turned, and I felt Ramsey stiffen beside me. I couldn't blame him—the woman before us was breathtaking.

She stood nearly six feet tall, with a willowy frame that looked both delicate and powerful. Her hair fell in thick waves to her waist, the colour of burnished copper shot through with gold that seemed to catch the light unnaturally. High cheekbones framed eyes so vividly green they looked like polished emeralds. Her lips, full and curved in a knowing smile, were painted a deep burgundy that matched her leather armour.

"Hello, Ramsey," she purred, "It's been a while."

Before either of us could respond, she stepped forward and pressed her lips directly against Ramsey's. I watched in shock as she kissed him for several seconds before pulling away, leaving Ramsey looking stunned.

She turned to me immediately, taking in my expression, and then—to my complete horror—she leaned in and kissed me as well. Her lips were surprisingly soft, and the kiss was brief but undeniably intimate.

"That is how we greet where I come from," she explained, stepping back with a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. "Don't worry about me, Moonsinger, I'm the safest woman to be around your man. Ramsey is no longer interested in me."

She extended her hand. "My name is Circe Dart. Lycan Alpha from Grey Moon Pack."

I took her hand cautiously, noting how cool her skin felt against mine.

"My name is…"

"C'mon, darling. I know who you are. Who hasn't heard of Lyla Woodlands, the infamous daughter of Logan Woodlands? Your father was every young girl's dream man back then. You have his eyes."

"Th-thank you," I stuttered. "I guess."
