The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya the Author novel Chapter 272

047 Griffin 

By the time Ayla gets here. I have just finished my work. I was happy with the extra preparations I made. But it was a lot of extra work, and with me being deadset on not having to work on the weekend. I have been hauled up in the office all day. To the point where I was too late to walk outside and welcome her back. Now she is standing at the door opening carrying a bag that is way too big to be just an overnight bag. Was she thinking the same thing as I was? 

“Are you okay Griff, you seemed a little off yesterday and now you didn‘ t come to greet me? Not that you have to of course but well you…” She stammers, probably not wanting to make me feel bad about it. 

But I like she expected me to wait for her outside to be the first one to welcome her in. I’m pissed at myself I lost track of time. 

“I am more than okay now you are here again, Darling,” I tell her as I walk up to her. 

To my relief she lets me kiss her, wrapping her arms around my neck and pulling me closer. Deepening the kiss until it leaves me breathless. 

“I haven’t been fully honest with you, and because of that, I was swamped with work today” I almost miss the way she goes pale and shivers like it is cold in my office.

“Nothing to worry about, I just set up a double date with, Dillio, Collin Gerald, and Jessa I figured you missed her. And I had Krystel buy you some toiletries even if I think she went a little overboard” As soon as the last word leaves my lips she drops her bag and jumps into my arms. 

“Thank you, thank you, thank you Griff” she practically squeals. 

As always I get happy she calls me Griff and when she has both her feet. on solid ground again she rushes to get something out of her bag. 

“Here we had meatloaf the other day and I told Grandma you would love it so she packed you the leftovers. And oh euhmm I packed some more clothes hoping I could leave them here. You know so I don’t have to pack every time. They can just stay in the bag if you don’t have closet. space” Her cheeks redden again. 

As if she needed help looking cuter than she already does. 

“You and your grandmother are the best. And the extra clothes are perfect I was thinking about how much easier that would be just yesterday” I took the bag from her hand, because I like doing things like that for her. 

Dad always acts like a true gentleman to Mom, I always grew up wanting to be like him. Things like holding doors open, pulling her chair back, and carrying her bags. Not because she needs me to, but to

show her how appreciated she is. In the short distance between my and my chambers, I spent listening to Ayla excitedly chatting about having missed Jessa and the dresses he packed for special events and dates. She wants to match like she wanted to do at the ball for Krystel. Clearly, that is something she enjoys. It showed me she was a romantic at heart. I hated that, that side of her was destroyed but I would do anything in my power to build it up again. I didn’t mind matching at all, I kinda like people could see we belonged together. She chose a deep red almost burgundy dress with three–quarter–length sleeves. The skirt ends a little above her knees and she pairs the formfitting dress with white sneakers. I can’t take my eyes off her, I wish the twist on her left hip would come undone so the dress would fall open. That will have to wait until later tonight though. I made preparations for after dinner but, to make those plans we needed to go to dinner first. Fulfilling my promise to her I change into a button–down shirt in the exact same color as her dress. I paired it with some dark blue jeans and of course my white.

couple we are. 

“Actually Your Highnesses I agree, we discussed announcing that Lady Hemmings accepted you as her mate. To stop the rumors a picture in these outfits would be perfect. Especially since our Princess has on this elegant make–up” The royal secretary that happened to walk past us
