Chapter 25

Finding no way out of the small cabin we opted to try and get some sleep. Heading to the two small rooms we find that there are only four twin beds. Ambrose yells from the first room “I call this bed and I am willing to share” rolling my eyes at everyone I opt to sleep on the small sofa with Freya close by. Something about this place has me on edge. My chest feels tight while I lay here. A sharp pain comes and goes so fast I don’t even know if it's there. I hear moving around in the kitchen so I sit up to find Ambrose opening and closing all the cub boards and drawers. “whatcha doing?” causing him to jump. “sometimes I forget your kind have such good hearing. Your father must be proud of you with hearing so acute.” I shrug no one ever said anything about my hearing abilities before. This red man is odd.

“so can I ask about the horns and skin?” tilting his head like a dog. “well I don’t know if I will have the answers that will satisfy you. But if you must go ahead, princess.” “oh for the love of the goddess would you stop calling me princess it makes me feel yucky. I don’t know the winters. They know why my father won't step foot there so why have they never come to our pack huh? They don’t care about me I don’t care about them. So again stop calling me princess.” the last came out more growl-like. To my surprise, he laughs. Not like a little giggle, not a full belly holding his sides kind of laugh like if he was not already red he would be red. Stopping he looks me over with his odd eyes “you and your sister have your mother's fire and your father's stubbornness. Making me believe my theory about you and your sister is truth.” “what theory?” this is the first person to have a theory about myself and my sister so I was curious. “awe but I thought you wanted to ask about the horns and skin young alpha?” he asks arching his brow.

“Who said I can only ask about one thing?” giving him a completely innocent look. Or what I hoped looked innocent enough. “are you sure we are out of cinnybonnies? It's been a long time since I had any. And all the new flavors?” “yes bottomless pit you found and ate them all?” he then waves his hands about then snaps and drops to his knees. Rushing to him “are you okay what happened?” “just a test. I no longer felt bound so I thought I would try and summon some cinnybonnies but nope the barrier is still here.” “Have you been summoning them the whole ride? Like those times I asked about them and you?” not finishing I let his arm go letting him slip back down to the ground. “not the whole time but come on I have not had them in twenty years and they have gotten better since your mother got me hooked on them.” a small plea in his eyes. Oh for the love of everything how old is this guy. “wait did you say twenty years? How old are you? What are you?” with a chuckle he gets up off the ground slowly. “much faster on that than your sister the alphahood already in you isn't child? That is good cause I do believe you will need to save this pack.” he starts pulling the coffee and its needed teams from the cupboards and fridge. “well they must not use this one often this coffee looks old but being in the middle of an iceberg helps.”


Freya comes and rubs against me. My fingers sliding through her soft fur I can feel a rubble in her I have always called her purr. Unlike the other canines we have on the ranch Freya doesn't bark really the only sound she makes is this rumble. “she loves you very much. You and she have created a bond without being bonded its good the bonding will go smoother. Like Eris and Matilda, I would assume. Though unlike Matilda your hell hound can not clone herself.” choking at his words. “cl. cough cough…clone did you say clone?” “awe yes your sister was granted a watcher familiar. Spiders are very hard to catch as they are either really small or really big. Your sister's familiar also has the ability to clone, and send herself out to spy. While yours is power and strength. So my theory is you and your sister were meant to be the guardians of your brother. He was named Hermes correct?” I nod “ Hermes at the base of him is a messenger.” with a wave of his hand to stop me from speaking “yes I know about your names another time. So my theory is your brother was meant to have a golden tongue send a message to the others so he wouldn't have been overly, what do you call it alphay maybe. He would have been smaller than most alphas but wiser in a way. Then comes you and your sister one who can look at all the angles and see things for truth. Her powers with controlling some emotions or feelings would help to stop someone in their tracks. Then you are strong, outspoken even your familiar is suited for a fight. Blood and violence feed into you and that in itself could be dangerous without control. I have thought over what you said and I can not blame young master Philip for putting the leash on you. He wouldst know to harness such gifts. I must apologize to your father when we get back.” “if we get back?” his eyes flared a fiery orange.

“it's not an if young lady it's a when and I do have a feeling it will be sooner than you think. The young black boy's mate is a bear. she can't reject her mate bears are granted one mate so they are bound to them from the second they are seen. And the black boy didn’t reject her nor will he so she will be back sooner or later.”

“what do you mean she can't reject me? What would happen if she did?”
