The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

174 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. Qr 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 shit 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.

Last night Ayla seemed so on top of it, telling me she wouldn’t be nervous if I was there with her. But when she woke up she was a ball of nerves, so I did everything I could do to make her feel less nervous. Luckily pack breakfast helped too and I loved discussing the future and talking about our pups with our pack members. To the extent that we almost forgot to pick up Ayla’s parents and the Council of Elders would be arriving. The timing of them both arriving at the exact same time wasn’t ideal either. But we found a solution and I wasn’t about to give Ayla more stress by freaking out over little things like that.

Not long after I walked the council to the meeting room, Ayla joined us. It made sense that her parents wouldn’t keep her occupied for too long. They knew the importance of impressing the Council of Elders. Ayla taking too long to come out to meet the Council of Elders would be seen, as a sign of disrespect.

they just hold a lot of importance to traditions and being respected. Especially by members of the royal family, because while we rule the country. Their job is equally as important, they are the ones who execute

my parents and I did most of the communication with them. A lot

the plans and how we are going to arrange the trial it’s not so it is closer to lunchtime than we expected. Taking that into consideration and the fact that Hannah still hadn’t found anyone to represent her in this trial. We decided on just having the welcome–to–the–pack lunch my mom and
