The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

“I know you she-wolves like to nest, and I decided it would be better for our mate-bond if I stay here with you. I brought you a bunch of nesting s hit so here you go” David got me out of my stupor by throwing a bag filled with ratty blankets towards me.

The dull thud of the bag landing on the bed seemed to snap something in me. Like I suddenly was done with all of it. There is no use for me in being sad, after all, Griffin showed me he was coming for me. I know he will and not just him, the BloodMoon pack treated me like sh it. Making me believe I was unloveable just for being smaller than the average wolf. But with moving packs, and getting to know yet another pack. I have learned I am loveable, I might not be it for everyone. But I am for the people who care about me. The people I need to love me.

Griffin won’t be alone in his mission to rescue me. All these wolves risking so much to get me back. The least I can do is stop wallowing in self-pity. Stop crying myself to sleep every night and to stay strong. David can slap, hurt, and abuse me all he wants. He won’t kill me.

Not because I trust him to not be a killer. I know he is, hell this man killed his parents as a way to win me over. The reason I know he is not going to kill me is because he thinks he is in love with me. In his mind, all of this is leading up to me becoming his mate again. It is clear he is prepared to put up a fight, thinking he can just wear me down. So I will give him a fight, but not one he thinks he is getting.

“Wow, some ratty blankets that really would suit a nest for a mate like you. Lucky me you will never be my mate again” I scoff, walking up to him and grabbing the bag with the food from his hand.
