Chapter 97

Ambrose pov

Pacing my small hut fawn is outside my window watching with concern. But I have to do this I have to make sure they never get their hands on the winter's bloodline. The night coven would only destroy everything. My seer stone starts to glow red with a wave of my hand I let the link go through. “what child I am busy you know I have things to do what do you want okay goodbye.” opening the next drawer looking for the vial of mermaid tears. I need it so I can weaken a spot making this go faster. “Ambrose. For fuck sake old man what the hell is wrong with you?” turning to the seer stone confused “when did I call you boy?” “old man what is wrong I know something is off the spells are weakening what is going on?” “I warned you didn’t I? I told you this was going to be rough and I told you I could only hold spells on one, not two you choose where my magic stayed. Shall I call it all back and walk away then?”

Oh, walk yes I could use a walk. Turning around I see the vial I was looking for. Oh, finally okay time to work on this some more. Wait what was I supposed to do before I poured the next one on? Tapping the vial to my lip looking around. “oh for the love of the goddess how do I send someone to help you get through this faster?” “Hello? Who’s there? Where are you?” I can't see anyone but I defiantly heard someone there. A loud caw from out the window draws my attention. Walking over I see a chart -before you dump the mermaid tears on cross it off the list.- awe yes okay. Check mermaid tears. Opening the veil I dump it on the pearl. Another caw draws my attention locking eyes she lets me know the alpha needs me. Keeping focused on her I pop to him.

All he wanted was a potion or cream to get rid of scars something about a child or something I don’t care. I need to finish this fast I can feel it working. I can see it in the Luna she's been better and the alpha he is well I have no clue if it's affecting him. Okay, the time away was good though was able to clear my mind. Okay what next ..hmmmm…hmmm. Oh ya, here it is a lock of medusa hair. Chop chop into little bits sprinkle on top let it sizzle. Wiggling my hips as I dance around the room. The black smoke tells me it's almost time. Where is it just one more little bit of oh here it is unicorn sperm? You don’t want to know how I got this little bit of magic. Getting a dropper okay breath carefully only a half a drop now no more no less. Holding my breath as I let it slip off the dropper. Cutting it off at half a drop and held my breath.

The world stopped for the point zero zero one second it took to drop on the pearl. I need to seal the orb in them before her heat in three days. It's gonna cut things close. Close, Close oh I need new shoes and pants these are so old. What was I doing oh tea yes? A chuckle from behind me has me turning around looking for the source. “who’s there come out now” I demand the giggle happens again “he's funny mama?” “that's not nice Ambrose we don’t talk about others like that. How would you feel if he called you funny looking?” mother scolds puffing out my tiny chest “but mama I am funny looking see.” thrusting out my tine red hand. Mother says she hopes I keep my skin always as it's the softest thing she ever felt. But I just want to look like everyone else. I don’t want to always have to hide anything that can hide me I am a monster. Plopping down on the ground in our garden “what is wrong my little flame?” “am I a monster?” gasping “where did you hear such talk?” pointing to the river where I was spotted sorta by some boys? They thought I was a fox but still, they called me a monster. Shaking her head.

“ammy look at me. Do you feel like a monster? Do you want to do mean things to others?” shaking my head “then how can you be a mons-------

“old man fucking Ambrose wake the fuck up.” shaking my head and looking at the seer stone “what is it child I am not in the mood.” “you told me to call you at this time every day for two days this is day two. You said you would know what it means and that's it.” the stone glowing an odd yellow instead of red odd it linked to my aura and blood it should be why would it be yellow?

Tapping the counter with my fingers when the stone tunes green. Then back to yellow. Yellow and green what is this clue I couldn’t have left myself easier clues. Well while I try and figure this out how about a sandwich? Heading to the cooler I opened it to see the large bottle of griffin snot. Looking at the clock yep right on time. Grabbing the bottle I head to the pearl. Grabbing the quarter-season spoon I scoop out a heaping scoop. Plopping it on top of the pearl. The sizzle starts as I put the snot back in the cooler. Grabbing the panda spit I go back to the pearl once the snot is all dried up in an ass I dump all the panda spit on it. The small pop sounds as the pearl turns to dust. Yes yes yes. It will be done for the ceremonies in two days. Perfect I can do the alpha and Luna when they talk the Luna vows and she joins the pack. Her heat will be the following night and the first heir to the new black rose pack will be created.
