The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

178 Griffin

What was supposed to be a wonderful day, our last hurrah before needing to go back to business as usual was cut short. Deep down I knew it was just a minor inconvenience that both of us were aware might happen. Still, it annoyed me, I was having such a good time meeting my gamer friends. Or well some of them with Ayla. I loved how she was able to charm every important wolf at royal events. And now she was just as charming with my human friends. So to leave early, just because we still needed to deal with all the sh it David and Hannah caused for us.

I understand why Ayla wants to see her now before, the trial. The Council of Elders already was a little agitated that Ayla went into heat before the trial. They realized it was not something we could control. And they understood the emotional toll and risks in, proceeding with the trial when Ayla was in heat. So they begrudgingly told us to contact them when the heat was over. We did, so that all worked in our favor, Ayla being prepared, and having her statement ready. Having a clear idea about her punishment, and even having it written

out.

Still, most of Hannah’s statements and explanations anger me. Especially the one about pack leaders needing to be happy first in order to lead the pack. I was biting my tongue because I was afraid I would not be able to control myself. Luckily I didn’t need to because my wonderful, witty, poised mate handled it. Holding my hand in silent support.

pick up Ayla’s parents and the Council of Elders would be arriving. The timing of them both arriving

for too long. They knew the importance of impressing the Council of Elders. Ayla taking too long to come out to meet

because while we rule the country. Their job is equally as important, they are the ones who execute punishments that transcend more than one pack. If we as members of the royal family do not show the Council enough respect it could very well affect their standing

with them. A lot of the contact started in the moment when she was still kidnapped and was unable to contact them at that time. When she

trained on me, I know it is because it helps her feel less nervous so I shoot her

how much she knows with the little training she has

now let’s proceed with this meeting so we can set things into

the importance of mates. And the comfort physical touch brings us. I have been in meetings with the human rulers where they would raise an eyebrow every time my parents
