The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya the Author novel Chapter 320

095 Griffin 

Reluctantly I make my way back to the castle, I don’t want to come face to face with the wolves doubting my mate. Not when I should focus my attention on getting her home. But as a good leader, I must ensure the pack is behind me. If my parents and I have to go to war with David, they will all fight with us. That’s how a pack works, but a wolf that’s not certain of the cause we are fighting for. Is more likely to die, and as leaders, we need to keep our pack safe. 

When I reached the edge of the forest I shifted back and got dressed again. 

“Griffin, are you okay I am sorry I acted out it’s just my sister” Daniël had been pacing around at the forest edge, and his voice broke when he spoke to me. 

Somehow it was soothing, my parents and everyone in Ayla’s family were all worried sick. Every single one of them was deadset on getting her home with me. With us. Of course, I want her home too, I am sure Dan does too. But they have all sprung into action, and I need a moment. I know I am supposed to be, this strong brave Crown Prince. 

And I am, but there has never been through anything so heartbreaking as losing Ayla. Knowing that she is out there somewhere most likely thinking about me, missing me. All I needed was a moment to let go, to 

let someone know that I was not doing okay. That my heart was aching for my mate. 

By the way, Daniël had screamed at my pack members who do not support Ayla. The fact that he had just played an entire private voice message to make a point. Showed me he was not coping that well either. 

“I am as okay as can be, let me speak to my packmembers, and then we can have a drink and talk in my office okay?” I ask him and he just nods. 

As expected the five pack members that are not. supporting us have settled down in the kitchen. Probably waiting for me because they knew I overheard them and it had caused me to go on a run. When Daniël and I enter the kitchen they scramble up. 

“Crown Prince Griffin, please know” One of them starts apologizing on behalf of the entire group. 

I don’t have the time or the patience to listen to him. They can’t know that I am on the verge of losing it. But they can surely know that I am heartbroken and that their refusal to believe in their future Queen hurt me on a personal level. 

“Chris, talking to all of you now, takes away time from rescuing my mate. I know you don’t want to believe that your future Queen would not leave me. But just imagine how you would feel if you knew Nathalia was hurt and I was stopping you from saving her because I would rather

believe she ran away from you. So sit down and keep your pitiful apologies to yourself” I snap at them and then sit down without waiting on them. 

The awkwardness in the kitchen is now palpable but I honestly no longer can’t be bothered. 

“The only reason I am here is to see what your worries are, to see if I can ease them. And if that is not the case I want to excuse you all from fighting in the upcoming battles” I tell them 

Everyone is baffled by my decision a few of the pack members stammering that they are still a part of the pack even if they doubt Ayla. I want to scream at them, telling them that as far as I am concerned they are not. If they cannot trust and believe in their Luna how can they be a part of the pack? It doesn’t work like that though so instead I just tell them I don’t want them to die in a war, a fight they do not believe in. 

“Crown Prince Griffin, I don’t want to be rude, or disrespectful. But we have all seen her run away from you that first night. She seemed nice during the pack event last weekend. But your mateship has been far from normal. How can you be so sure that this time it isn’t her fault” Sarah 

asks me. 

Deep down I know she has a point, I expected not everybody to agree with this for that exact reason. Because they don’t know me like I do. So. that is what I tell them, I tell them they don’t know her like me. They 

didn’t listen in to the conversations we had in the dark as we were

falling asleep in each other’s arms. Most of all neither of them knows what she went through before she met me. 

We have been sitting in my office in silence both nursing our whisky’s for about ten minutes now. Both of us were too tired, and too emotional to break the silence. One question is running through my mind on a loop though. I only heard half of the voice memo and I am dying to hear the
