Chapter 66
Philip pov
After trying to connect to Ty a few more times I snap to Ambrose “find Ty I can't link him.” coming out more like a command than a request. Without hesitation, Ambrose disappeared. Shifting I head to the west border. Linking my warriors there at that border. None of them are reachable. Sliding to a stop just short of Tyler's frozen form. Ambrose appears just to the left of Ty. Looking around I notice all the wolves here are frozen in place. Sniffing the air I can't detect anything that should not be there. Linking the packed clinic to have five beds ready just in case. Also, have a team on stand-by in case we need help bringing the wolves back.
Coming close to Ty I can feel the heat of his body. The beating of his heart is steady. Placing my fingers on his chest feeling for his breath but nothing. Glancing at Ambrose who is looking at Zara a young she-wolf new to the warriors. Looking at me he shrugs shocking me as there is nothing he does not know. Ready to link for transport the six wolves drop to the ground. Gasping for breath. Rushing to check them when their breathing levels out. Groaning they all start to stir. Sitting up Ty shakes his head and then looks at me with an odd look. “what are you doing here? I thought you were heading to the southern border where the alpha of alphas is?” sharing at him then to Ambrose who again shrugs “I can't detect any magic so I don’t know.” “Ty takes your team to the clinic have terry look over you all and get blood samples. Ambrose please just test them for the magic of any kind? And you five take their place here at the border.” everyone answers with the “yes alpha” before doing as I said. Heading to the office it's time I call the other alphas and set up a meeting to go out the winter.
Making it to the office I hear my computer pinging over and over letting me know I have emails. Looking at the screen it's urgent messages from several of the packs in my alliance and around the country. After opening two I let out a loud roar shaking the house and nearby land. The herd dogs howling out. Ambrose pops into my office as Kavin and hunter rush through the door. “what has happened?” Ambrose ask and I just pointed to the screen.
“dear alpha Philip Samuels,
Due to your recent attack on the winter pack unprovoked. And kidnapping of the princess we have to revoke our contracts with you as you are loyal to the ruling pack.
With deep regrets
Alpha Thomas Johnson of the plains pack.”
Looking at the list next to the message “I take it they are all different versions of this?” I nod. Ty barrels through the door looking for any sign of trouble. “what happened? What was the roar for?” he pants out. “somehow the winters turned the packs against us.” “how they were all there at that mating horror show?” I shrug at a loss to what could have happened. Not more than a week has gone by since that day. All of a sudden a sharp stabbing pain goes through my chest. Clutching my chest growling. Ambrose grabs my arm the pain slowly melts away. Looking at him he has a huge grin on his face. “I’m glad my pain entertains you.” I sneer “don’t be a stupid boy it's not your pain that brings me joy it's what it means. That which is trying to summon the princess. A task he will fail at.” all of a sudden the pain is back. The pain is so much my knees threaten to buckle. “here” Ambrose says as he drops a copper necklace around my neck. As soon as the cold metal touched my skin the pain pulled and crawled up my body to the necklace. Taking a deep breath as I straighten and square my shoulders.
“explain” “when they were here earlier I felt the young witch pulling at your aura looking for lies. Upon finding none I knew he didn’t believe you had no idea where the princess is. So while we were talking I slipped a shield potion in your coffee. I used her blood as the base and your bond and the lock. As long as you breathe and until I remove the spell if they try to summon her or use magic against her you will block it. It will be painful the stronger the spell or magic but you’re an alpha you can handle it.” flipping his hand in the air to wave it off.
“I am done with this family Ambrose where is she so I can accept the rejection and get on with my life,” I growl out. “NO!” Ty yells throwing his full aura into the one word. Startling us all we snap to look at him. Huffing his chest rage is written all over him “I take it you read the book I left in your room Mr. Black” Ambrose says as he walks over to Tyler a mug of something steaming appears in his hands as he gets closer to Tyler. “what are you talking about?” “you can not reject her and she can not reject you. The same way your line is blessed hers is both cursed and blessed. If she rejects you you die if you reject her you both die. Your pride and the Samuels' vow to never reject or accept a rejection kept you alive. don’t let your ego kill you now.” Ty spits at me. To say what he said was not a shock because that would be a lie. It was like having a bucket of ice water thrown in my face. Looking to Ambrose for the hell I don’t know at this point may be hope that what Ty said was a lie. I knew he was speaking the truth I can't be lied to. “not to burst this bubble I think I might have a theory about the princess’s wolf?”
