Chapter 49
Philip pov
It's been a few days since Eris left for the blood moon pack. I have met with the future alpha and his father a few times before this so I know she will be in good hands. I have been getting an odd feeling all day like something is coming but I have no clue. Looking up as Michelle walks through the door with a steaming mug in her hands. “either you're coming to butter me up or bitch me out either way hand over the good stuff first.” holding my hand out. She chuckles at me “I came to do no such thing. But I wanted to come to ask you if you felt off today. So since I was heading this way I figured you’d like some coffee hunter mentioned you been pacing at night when you don’t go paroling at night alone.” drawing out the last letter to let me know she does not approve. “I have something itchy under my skin and I can't put a finger on it. And yes I have been having a hard time with both the girls gone well all three and Kaleb. The suite is just too quiet.” I huff out.
With a nod she takes a seat in the chair. “so not to change the subject I heard you and Ty were not so careful this last heat.” wiggling my eyebrows at her. Her cheeks flush and her eyes get big “he told you?” “nope, your voice carries even through the thick doors on our floor.” I chuckle. “well it was his fault no it was your fault. You sent him home for something.” pointing her finger at me “yes and he was only supposed to be on the ground floor getting the scent blocker he forgot. When he didn’t return by sunrise we went looking for him. Can't go on a covert mission without scent blocker.” a wave of her hand to dismiss what I said.
All of a sudden the room fills with fog and lavender. Ambrose is coming. Standing I wait for the old man. When the mist clears I see the kids along with two new faces. They all look like they haven't eaten in weeks. Enoy is being held up by a young man I almost limp in only a jacket. What the hell. “before you start young man gather the rest of the leadership we have a major problem. We also will need reinforcements so call whoever. The master and the winters will be coming I can't see when but I know they will. The master had a new vessel made from the brother of your mother and his chosen mate. He saw Enoy's eyes read her and found she the daughter of a Winters. The master will be after her. He will want to know if she's like her mother. And we already know that answer. To top things I have to take Enoy to my home she almost went nuclear. I had to dose her with nightshade and helm sap. Her wolf is asleep for now. I will wake her back up in my home. The others need food and checked over. The young master snow is mated to your Enoy but they only just found each other. He will be a little testy over the time I have Enoy with me. But he needs a lot of medical care he's been through a lot. The bear needs set up with training no one is too weak but not alpha strong for now she's been locked away inside herself too. When I get back we will go over what I learned. The young beta and gamma can answer some questions but master snow and the child of the cold will have more answers.” he spews out pointing at people. I know he said a lot but I was still stuck on mated to Enoy. Looking him over looking into his almost white eyes I see pain hurt to hope and in a glance down at Enoy I think I see love start to take root. With a nod I link to have rooms made up. “and the young lady?” “the child of the cold is mated to the young black boy. She will be a valued addition to the pack she's proven herself more than I can even start to repay.” “dad you need to send a team up to the snowpack. The ships have been damaged the pack suffered a lot and needs some help to rebuild also send some unmated she-wolves and males there are a few still looking for mates.” Enoy's hoarse voice fills the room. Taking a step towards her the young snow boy growled.
Snapping my eyes to his I notice his eyes getting wide in fear. “sir um alpha um I..” “no need I had a mate once as well I understand the pull of the bond and you both have been badly cared for so I assume your” sniffing the air “you’re a fox!” coming out more as a question he nods. Looking at the girl pale very pale and Ambrose called her child of the cold. “she’s.. she’s.. for real like real, real and you fox. I mean I knew the snowpack was a collection of cold weather shifters but I never thought I would meet one. Can you really stay out in the snow all day and not get cold? When you shift are you all white like I have heard oh are your eyes the same in human and shifted form?” I rush out okay I may have wanted to visit the snowpack just never found the time to. So meeting a real bear and a real fox is amazing. “well only half fox my father is or well was an arctic wolf. I am pure white as is fallen. I am smaller than an average wolf. Fallen is a large polar bear. The last of her clan.” he stops sucking in a deep breath I can see they both are struggling not to spill a tear. Max pulls the young girl to him as Enoy pulls the young fox to her.
“if you need to spill tears I understand no one would be expected to keep it all in after all you've been through. How about we get you settled in and fed then we can talk? With Eris and Rosemary, both gone the suite has been quiet. Why does Kaleb look like the walking dead?” I ask just as he starts to melt to the ground. Coming through the door William scooped up his boy in the nick of time as his eyes rolled back.
“Young master snow you will be safe here with the alpha he will let nothing happen to you. Take advantage of the healing hands they have here. Young alpha I would put him in Enoy room to keep his wolf calm.” “I thought he was a fox?” Michelle says pushing through and coming to stand in front of the small female clinging to Max. “hello dear I am Michelle black Maximus's mother I know I can't replace your mother but I am here for you if you need anything I am here. We can go shopping get you some new things and maybe you can talk my son into updating his room.” “mother” max groans out.
“well I must take Enoy and Freya with me home I trust you will get things ready for her return once she has control over her magic. The leash you had on her was broken and turned to dust. No don’t you say a damn word. she will learn to control the magic I promise. I saw just a glimpse of what would happen should she lose control and even I was scared.” snapping to look him in the eye looking for a lie but all I can see is the truth. Nothing scares Ambrose its like he's immune to fear. So for him to say she frightened him is saying something.
“go help my princess control the magic. Help her be the alpha I can see inside her I will take great care of her mate. Enoy honey, I promise nothing will harm him while in my care. If I am correct Ambrose has a mini Matilda as do I and she can't communicate with each other so if something happens you will be notified right away.” her sad tired dull eyes look up at me with a nod and a smile thought I know shes grateful she's also worried. She nods pulls the young fox to her kisses him hard before pulling away. “my father is a good man when he makes a promise he keeps it.” with that she steps back taking Ambrose hand and in a blink, the three of them are gone.
