Chapter 59
The next few days have been full of searching for Kalaban and Maebug. Both have disappeared without a trace. The search for Janet started out slow but then fae started reporting missing offspring or friends. Later to find the bodies all drained of blood. Looking at the map of reported missing or dead fae it does not take me long to know where she's heading. It's the same path I took when I was brought to the shadow pack. She's heading for the shadow pack I have to warn them. Without another thought, I took off jumping from king Rowland's office window. My wings catch the air as I head for the royal pack.
Being able to fly has cut the travel time down a lot. As my pack and the royal pack have strong sister alliance bonds I can feel when I cross the border but it wouldn't alert anyone of my presence. Coming to the pack house that started the design we adopted comes to view I angle for a landing. Dropping down in the front and waiting. I know this house like the back of my hand having first started working in the kitchen here to living here as the alpha heir. Going from a twelve-year-old adult to a twelve-year-old was a hard transition but my fathers helped along with my aunt and uncles. The queen and kings fit in that category. My brother is the mate of the beta heir November-Anne storm. So my family and my pack are not just friends with the royals but family with them. I have babysat the future queen of the wolves and the future alpha of the shadow pack. The twins are nothing but the sweetest five-year old’s around. Much nicer than Nova. Okay so we all might be turning nova into a high-maintenance diva but it's not every day you know who your future sister-in-law will be. Wolves don’t find their mates until eighteen so how does a seven and five-year-old know they are mates.
When a fae child is born all the bonds in the world are open to them. All magic around them is flowing through them letting their bodies know where the paths for their magic will be and what will they lean towards more in magic or gift. This openness stops when they turn five and the paths are fully formed. The bonds lock along with the magic. This is so children can be children. As fae live longer lives and have multiple lovers some don’t find they're fated. And the fact when fae children are born they are only seen by the family until they are ten summers ensuring they stay within the family magic. So running into a fated mate was almost not heard of. But Jordan and I being wolves and adopted by an alpha whose sister is the mother of your future mate the chances of meeting young are guaranteed. Nova being the first baby Jordan would be able to see and then grow up with already had a claim on aunt Kari's belly. My theory is he already felt the bond and didn’t know. Aunt Bron and aunt Sharon mixed their magic to create a mute button for them. A spell that breaks on nova’s eighteenth birthday.
They know who they are to each other not that it would have been a secret. They always want to be close and need to talk all the time. Even with the mute they still need to keep the connection strong. So the packs are so much closer with having to drive nova home or pick her up and vice versa for Jordan. Lost in thoughts of my family I didn’t notice with king Damien came out of the house. With a deep clearing of his throat, I looked over. Gasping in surprise “uncle dam…err umm I mean king Damien I came to warn you a witch is on her way here and it's not for anything good.” when he starts laughing I am taken back when I notice his eyes are brown now blue. This is not uncle Damien. But it is his face so I try again “I do apologize to alpha stone for miss speaking but what I said is true a witch is coming here you have to prepare for her attack.” “look here little fairy we can handle one little witch no need to worry your pretty little wings off.” he laughs out. Pissed off I roar out “I am an alpha heir you will speak to me with the respect you demand.” all wolves around dropped their heads in a bow including his beta. The only reason alpha stone is not bowing is because he is an alpha. Looking around his laughter died fast. Shooting his eyes at me he takes a big whiff of the air. Tilting his head slightly “wolf and fairy how?” “long story no time you can't let her have any of the wolves here that have any magic in their blood and that's all of you. She is a blood magic witch a nasty thing you have to…” the roar in the air tells me Rhett is soon to follow. The alpha makes a hand jester and a small wolf run off into the wood close to the house. “if the young dragon lord believes you then I will believe you.” oh good he had to ask my mate.
“ya sure ask Rhett whatever you want I am sure he will back me with whatever I say.” I glare at him. “how dare you address him so casually. Do you have no respect for your peers?” he roars back. My fist burst into flames as I glare at him “little wolf do not roast alpha Adam.” I hear him in my head growling out both in the link and out loud. The tone of my growl had him shutting the link and rushing to me barely having his pants on when he makes it to us. “Adam good to see you again so soon. What my mate tells you is the truth your pack is in danger.” “oh, this is the mate I can see what you meant. What does this witch look like.” Rhett shrugs and points to me
“ask future alpha Ashley KnightFlame”
“what?”
