The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

Building the bookshelves with Ayla’s great–uncle had been a lot of fun. He was a good guy reminding me of Dillion. That combined with the fact he very loudly told Ayla I was the better–looking one compared to David made me like him already. Because of the way he looked up and winked, I noticed Ayla couldn’t keep her eyes off me the moment I took my shirt off because it was getting hot. It felt like this had been the right thing to do, she even brought us snacks. The best moment had been when Nic left the room though and Ayla and I worked together to place the crown molding. Now we were eating some pizza with her great- uncle and grandparents. Nic and Quinn kept teasing each other, and I missed having a large family like Ayla has. What I also missed was the chance to properly introduce my mate to my family. I just know that they would love her. Ayla never really introduced me as her mate she wou

would just say. My name, here he is, or something along those lines. Now dinner was almost over and I still didn’t know where I stood. What would happen after this, Nic and I said we would give the bookshelves the first coat of paint before calling it a night. And I hated the idea of having to go back to the packhouse to sleep there.

She wanted to talk to me in private so I agreed. Wondering if she was going to pull back again. Even in the few days we had spoken to each

other she already had done that enough to make me worry. Now I could feel how nervous she was, I wish I knew what was going on through her mind. All I should have been sensing throughout the matebound this first few weeks should be joy and love.

But spending the day with you today is not about the fact you bought me a shit ton of stuff. I mean it, I want to know if you even considered

pulling back so I did all I could to reassure her. Telling her, I never thought about the monetary worth of what I bought her. I just wanted to make her happy, so I could prove being a good mate to her. How she didn’t ask for anything, that I remember that I almost had to beg her. With a legally binding contract, she would pay me back. I was still listing off all the reasons as to why

then you understand that doesn’t mean a lot, and there will be no funny business not even some innocent spooning. But if you want we can sleep in the guest room together it is a king bed so it wouldn’t be too cramped. I know you wanted more from this matebound than

of now I didn’t even know when I was going to see her again after going back to the castle when the weekend was over. I pushed the idea to the back of my mind. Tomorrow I would talk to her, and see if we can come up with a solution where we still get to see each other
