The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

I have been trying to not feel so anxious, thinking Gerald was right about the fact that it just had to do with me being an Alpha. A royal Alpha at that but she had stopped texting me. She promised me she would let me know when she would leave to go to the party. Most of the time I would know where she was and she would send me messages to tell me she was going somewhere. When she got there it always was the same when she would go home. I knew she did it for me not because I wanted to keep track of her. I just wanted to make sure she was safe. I would worry if I did not hear from her and didn’t know where she was.

Now for hours on end, she had been recording a voice message but it never got through. She had just suddenly stopped recording, and my messages no longer got through to her. I considered calling her parents but I felt bad. I have already made her feel like I didn’t trust her before and I would never make her feel like that again.

Ayla had a habit of sending voice notes telling me she was too tired or lazy to type. So I tried to tell myself that there just was something wrong with her phone. But the idea of something having happened to her, the voice memo still recording while she was lying somewhere hurt, or in danger kept running through my mind. The only way for me to get rid of all that anxious pent–up energy was to go for a run. But if I were to do that I had to chance and it meant not being able to take my phone with me. So if she would finally reach out to me I would be unable to answer

her.

I found myself pacing up and down in the office until I broke down. I finally started calling her. But every time I did I got her voicemail right away. Still, I couldn’t bring myself to call her family. She was at home at her pack at least. Saying goodbye to her family. I would hate to interrupt that, not to mention the fact that I loved being so accepted by her family.

Krystel wasn’t with her anymore she took Daniel on a romantic getaway since he wasn’t able to celebrate his eighteenth birthday due to all the war threats. And him having to run and leave his pack behind. Maybe she knew what the pack had planned for Ayla. As her friend, beta, and member of the family she was the best option I had without being a bother interrupting the party.

“Hey Krys, it’s me I haven’t heard from Ayla all night I am a bit worried. But I don’t want to bother her do you know what they planned?” I read the text over and over again.

With that, I lock my office and go to my personal chambers. As I walk out I see the door with the bright red bow on it across from my office.
