Chapter 26
Philip pov
With a link from father, we shut all things off that make sound. Though this wing is soundproof we want to make sure. Opening the surveillance lab top. Watching the screen with Ty we notice the price came himself. Odd. I see several of our wolves in the groups he brought. Linking father I ask if he can reach our wolves in his guard. Soon I hear father in my head on the all pack link “black rose pack please allow the winters pack in your homes to search. They are looking for Philip and Tyler if anyone has seen them please come to me.” hearing a few hundred “yes alpha” then father linked me saying he could not reach them. This could be a problem if they remember this wing.
Watching the wolves go up and down all the stairs. Laughing at the fact that father didn’t show them to the elevators. Granted there are only seven floors but still, that's seven floors. Not to mention all the different halls on each floor. Not to mention the different play areas and meeting rooms for various things. Watching father talk to the prince has me wishing this had sound. Father made sure everyone had their doors open just waiting for the guard to search. The warrior that walked past his baby sister without a word caused all our hearts to break. Four more days and the contract would be done. The contract will be broken by their side and our warriors will come home. Making a note to go and meet with the pup and explain a little to her.
They searched all day and well into the night. Finally, they left but as I watched them leave the land I saw several guard members staying close to the border.. linking father to let him know what I say but the warriors on the border beat me to it. With that done we all head back to bed. I hope these next four days go by fast I am missing the fresh air outside.
Linking father when I wake up “father do you think Ambrose could cast a spell to return all our things from the winter's pack. I couldn’t sleep last night so I was looking over the old contracts with the winters. They have journals and several pieces from over the years blessed by witches and the goddess.” “already on it, I had been looking them over since you got home. Ambrose said something about needing something from a troll so he went in search of one.” cutting the link telling me he was getting ready to meet with someone. Grabbing some coffee I head to go over the files my father sent to have me go over. When the pack email pinged. Looking up I see an email from the alpha of alphas Zeus winters. Opening it and read.
Dear alpha,
The day has come for Apollo and Artemis winters to have their mating ceremonies. They will join as their mates in front of you and other high members of the wolf community. We will see you in two weeks for the event.
Alpha of alphas
Zeus winters of the winters pack.
Linking father to have him look at it. This is either going to be good or bad. If she mates with Jacob white like they planned they break the contract. We will have to wait and see what happens. Getting back to work on the contracts that needed to be signed and ones that needed to be revised. Spending the remaining day working. Ty having woken not long after I did had been working on the contracts as well. Lost in the reading of the last contract father signed with the winter's pack I found a few things we can change or eliminate come next week. Father has decided to pass the title of alpha to me the day I can come out of this wing. The scent of fresh-cut grass fills the air before the room filled with fog. “good evening Ambrose. What do I owe the privilege of your company?” the helper wolves both startled at his sudden appearance. “I sent a friend to watch the castle. Your mate has been brought back to the castle. She looked very unhappy.” “wonder what has her so upset. Do you think she will mate with Jacob white?” taking a few minutes to think over my question before he answers. “I think she will do what her father and brother order her to do. And rumors have it the winters are in bed with a dark force. Did you see anything there?” I nod “the prince plans to have Artemis mate with Jacob white a witch. Making him the beta. that's another thing I am confused about. If she is my mate but she's supposed to be the mate of the new beta how does that work I will never walk away from my pack? The goddess must know that.”
Tapping his index finger to his lips thinking. “you know what I have no answer to that I will have to look into along with finding the head of the coven the witch belongs to.” without warning he misted out again. “too much to say bye before you poof huh?” asked the now empty spot Ambrose had been standing. “that guy gonna poof in at the wrong time one of these time.” Ty says coming from the hall caring the lab top he had been working on. “these are ready for you to review and sign. Want me to email or just hand you this lab top?” sighing I hold my hand out for the lab top it will be faster to just work from that one.
The silence was soon replaced with the defining sounds of the alarms going off. My eyes snapping to the security monitors I see a rogue coming from the treeline. How did they get so far onto the property? Linking father to let me out but he just blocked me. I try and open the door but it won't budge. Yelling for Ambrose or anyone to come to help me get out of this wing.
