Chapter 61
Phillip pov
Ambrose pours a shimmer powder into my drink. The powder turns to s silvery swirls. With a look of well I take the whole thing down in one gulp. Stumbling slightly as the liquid hits my tongue. My body heats from the center of my chest. Closing my eyes to center myself trying to breathe as a wave of dizziness over takes me. My muscle relaxes as everything numbs. I have not a care in the world right now. All I can remember thinking this stuff is dangerous. I hear Ambrose mumble something and then everything went black.
Opening my eyes I shut them back again the bright light in my room sends stabbing pain to the back of my skull. Groaning I slowly roll over and off the bed. Stumbling to the toilet to relieve myself. Keeping the lights in my room off barely opening my eyes. Every step sends waves of nausea and dizziness to me. If this is a hangover I get why humans complain so much I feel like the dead. Washing my hands I stumble back out of the bathroom to see Ambrose standing in the center of the room holding a mug of steaming horrible smelling something. Shaking my head at him as I bring my hand to cover my face. A smirks and walks over to me the horrible stench crawls to me. Shaking my head I take a step back. If I could order Ambrose and he buckles under my command I would but the asshat is immune to my command.
My back hits the wall blocking me as Ambrose starts chuckling. The horrible steamy fog rolls off the mug like an endless supply. Soon as the steam lands on my face a soothing heat rolls over me. Closing my eyes as nausea and tension washed away. Dropping my shoulders moaning at how relaxed I now feel. “oh dear boy it may smell of death but it only washes the toxins from your blood. A must morning after pixie dust laced drinks.” looking over at him with so many questions running through my head. “you would have healed from the toxin over the next few days being an alpha but why let them stay in your blood longer?” “toxin? You said it was normal and safe what that actual holy frog nuts man?” I yell at him only causing him to laugh so hard he bends over. Stomping away from that beach licking sand sniffing jerk.
Storming to the kitchen to start the morning yum yum machine I stop in my tracks. Will and hunter are locked in a heated moment in my kitchen groaning I take off. I need a good run. Throwing open my door I find gunner with his hand up ready to knock one look at me and he jumps out the way. Something has me on edge and I can't remember what I was doing last night. Taking the stairs up instead of the elevator hoping to burn some of this energy off. Breaking through the door I hurry out the door shifting as I jump off the porch. Landing on my huge black paws my claws dug into the hard ground leaving scars in the dirt in my wake.
Running full speed through the field the heifers screamed in fright. Soon our bull is charging from the field to where I am. His loud calls of protest at whatever intruder is messing with his girls. The guardian dogs are following behind ready to help the nut crusher if he needs it. Throwing a growl over my shoulder sending the dogs a signal it's just me. Our big girl mama nips at his heels causing him to stumble. Her brother jumps in front of the nut crusher causing him to stop. Soon a few of my warriors are there to calm down our big boy and herd him back to his girls. Breeding will start soon hence why this herd is so close to the house. We always start with nut crusher and his girls. We have the herds split into different groups so don’t have any inbreeding happening.
Flying through the trees at the border of my pack. Running until I come to the edge of the cliff overlooking the sea. The salt in the air helped to calm me down. What has gotten into me I have no clue. My wolf feels on edge like just one little thing will push him over the edge. I feel the push in my head telling me Ty is trying to link me. “speak” I growl out. Not in the mood for anything just wanting to sit here staring at the violent waves. “um well dude where is Artemis? Skylar had some clothes for her?” his confused voice fills my head. “who?” I ask just as confused “what do you mean who?” he demands “princess Artemis? Well dude I would assume she's at the winter's castle why would you ask me about her you know what she did.” anger lacing my voice. The link cuts hard like I am being cut off. Both my wolf and I feel disrespected roaring. I can feel through the bonds my pack's fear of submission to me. Shifting letting my alpha aura go I pace the edge. What the hell is going on.
“Ambrose!” I yell to the sky somehow knowing he will hear me. Storming to a tree to retrieve some shorts while I wait for that pain in the ass witch. The area starts filling with smoke but not lavender-scented smoke. More of a burnt marshmallow scent. Spinning around looking for the source. “who are you? And where are you?” “calm down young alpha. I can not reveal myself as I don’t have the power. I came to calm you. I can feel your anger and hurt but please know everything is for a reason. Nothing is more than you can handle. Stay strong stay just and the future you have prayed for will be in your hand.” with a swift change of the wind the burnt marshmallow scent washes away replaced with lavender.
“explain now!”
