The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

176 Ayla

As expected Griffin did not like me going to see Hannah. I was scared it would bring back unwanted memories. He didn’t trust her either, he had no reason to. The fact that I was adamant about going tonight did not help either, he wanted to prepare me before meeting her. I hadn’t seen her ever since I was kidnapped, I knew she was carrying David’s pup but I had no idea how far along she was. She might even show already.

Elders will have the final say. Since I am your victim though they want me to suggest a punishment. I know what you did to me, I know the moments when David had me kidnapped when you helped me. And I want to know why you did what you did. I want to know what you were hoping to get out of this. Of course, I have some ideas as to what drove you. But unlike you, I am not one, to ruin someone’s lives based on what I think of them.” I couldn’t help adding in
