The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya the Author novel Chapter 150

In the end, I decided to give it a little more time. It was not like my body was ready for much more than a bit of kissing. Griffin worries about me enough as it is. So it could easily just be him being too careful with me. Treating me like a little porcelain doll. I would just show him how strong I still was, and then things between the two of us were all right. All I needed to do was patient and remind myself of the fact that Griffin was doing all of this out of his love for me.
Getting dressed was another reminder of how little clothes I have here. Most of the clothes I do have here are for special events, I only have a few casual items here but they are summer clothes. It’s not exactly winter yet, but the days are getting chillier and with how tired and skinny I have gotten I feel even colder than I normally would. Suddenly a pair of leggings catches my eyes. They are leather look leggings Jessa made me buy on one of our shopping trips. I have never worn them because it is not my style but it from trying them on in the shop I know how comfortable they are.
And not wanting to pressure Griffin didn’t mean I could not show him what he was missing. So I combined the black leather look leggings with one of his crisp white dress shirts. I know he loves it when I wear his clothes, so maybe this would do it for him. Or maybe I was just mean for teasing him like this, knowing that my body was too weak to do anything with the attraction I wanted to feel so badly.
When I walked back into our kitchen, everybody was seated at the table with steaming mugs of coffee and big slices of black forest cakes in front of them. I smiled, seeing how Aunt Suzy had remembered my favorite cake all these years. Griffin was busy going over the to-do list I made for myself like I suggested he did. He was so engrossed in it that he didn’t seem to notice me coming back. Not until I told Grandma

how good the cake looked.
He turned around to face me and his jaw went slack.
“Da mn. Darling, you look beautiful” He whispered like he was too spellbound to speak the words out loud.
And when he suggested, I follow him for a moment before we would have our coffee and cake, I felt excited. Like he was making up an excuse to show me just how beautiful he thought I was dressed in his clothes.
Until he didn’t, sure, he pecked my check this time and took my hand to lead me down the halls. But again there wasn’t as much physical attention as I would normally get from him. Even with him seemingly unable to take his eyes off of me.
“I saw you had set up an office on your to-do list, but I had planned you a welcome home gift,” He told me as we arrived in front of his office, I followed his hand with my eyes.
Only to notice the door with the big red ribbon and an envelope on it.
He had to have prepared this before the kidnapping when he was still expecting me to be with him that Friday afternoon. And my heart hurt for him to know that every time he would come out of his office, he would see that reminder of me not being home with him. At a loss for words, I walked over to the door and plucked the envelope off the door.
“My sweet Ayla,
I love you more than words can say and I am beyond excited about our
future.
Both personally as mates, creating our own little family together.

And as the rulers of this pack and the kingdom, I just know you are going to be the best Luna and Queen this kingdom could ever want. So I find it only fitting to give you the perfect office.
All my love,
Griffin.
PS. It being so close to mine is an added bonus, don’t you think?”
The note was sweet and kind and it reminded me of the way things were between us before all of this. I knew enough before even opening the doors, I turned around and pulled Griffin closer to me. Pulling him in for a kiss. To my relief, he kissed me back without any hesitation. Even if it was more of a short sweet kiss and not as much a hot passionate kiss. He still kissed me without hesitation, pouring all of his love into the kiss.
I even was the one to break the kiss, to open the door, curious to see what kind of office Griffin had made for me.
As expected, the office was perfect, the lilac walls perfectly matched the gray carpet and all the whitewashed furniture in there. Just like I wanted, he made a sitting corner, set up with a coffee maker, kettle, and everything else needed to have a coffee or tea. He had managed to create an office that was both professional and homely. It was far different from the sleek, modern business style of his office. Not only was this more my style, but as the Luna and Queen, I would have wolves come to me with problems of a more personal nature.
Conversations that called for a more homely environment to make them feel more comfortable. I smiled at the fact that he had placed some bookshelves too. Because he knew I would want some books in here too. On the desk was a smaller copy of the picture I had printed out, I wondered if it was the one he found in the woods. The one with a message written on it in blood. No matter how sweet this was, that

would have been too much of an ugly reminder of the black pages in our story I wanted to forget as soon as possible.
He pulled me closer to his body, hugging me from behind, reassuring me that he had the picture printed again.
“I went back in to add the picture the rest has been done for weeks, I cleaned it myself Jessa is the only other wolf who has seen this office. To be honest I needed her help with it” He chuckled the last bit.
I appreciated him asking Jessa to help him. After all, the bond you share with your best friend is different from the bond you share with your mate. And Jessa and I grew up together, so she knew what I liked most out of everyone. His leaving his ego out of the door to give me the perfect office was the sweetest.
And I cannot wait to sit here and finally be the Princess the Silver Creek pack deserves. The office is comfortable enough to sit here and have the Gemma interviews, I know Griffin wants me to take better care of myself without being too worn out. But I want to be there for him as he is for me, and to me, that is more important than my own health is. He will just need to understand that.
