The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya the Author novel Chapter 83

Griffin 83
When I saw Ayla get teary-eyed from my speech I knew I did a good job. Just like I thought they would most of the pack welcomed her with open arms. I think it was good I told them a little bit about Ayla’s backstory. She should be the one to decide if she ever wants to tell the full story. And who she wants to tell it to. Now at least everyone knew she wasn’t just being flakey or distant for no reason. My pack, or our pack now was kind enough not to question her further.
I wanted her to have friends outside of Jessa, Collin, and my best. friends. As much as I love spending every second together I know it is good to both have friends. People we can do stuff with the other doesn’ t want to do. Always being together sounds romantic but in the end, I think it doesn’t do your relationship any good. I love having dinner with her on Friday nights and hearing her tell stories of co-workers or family. Or just tell me things she has done, she will get so excited. She will wiggle in her seat, and pick up a fork to take a bite ten times in at row before realizing she keeps forgetting to because she is so engrossed in telling me more about her life. I want to never lose those
moments.
Then there are the times something happens to me, and whether it is something good or something bad she is always the one I want to tell first. I want to still have that excitement from time to time. Only to know that she is waiting for me at home, so I can tell her face to face and not over a text or on Facetime. As the night progresses she seems. to hit it off with Tanya. She works at the bookstore so they must have something in common already. Not wanting to hover over her like the overprotective mate I go and find Gerald and Dillion to have a beer with them. But before I can I see Cynthia and Anna making their way over to her. Both of them look pis sed about something. They have been two of the most outspoken packmembers about the fact that I deserve

better.
Not that surprising when I think back on the fact that they would always tell anyone who wanted to hear that they felt I needed to pick. someone from the Silver Moon pack as my chosen mate. Neither of them traveled out of the pack to go find their mate even though they were nineteen and twenty and should want to meet their fated mate.
One look at Ayla tells me she knows the two are up to no good. Now I need to be the protective mate, not that I think they will try and hurt her. I trust everyone in my pack enough not to. I just want, no need Ayla to feel like I always have her back because I will. Taking one big step I get next to her pulling me flush against my b*dy with the arm I wrapped around her waist.

is about to go down. Because I won’t let anyone especially not my packmember walk all over her, or talk cr ap about my amazing mate.
When Cynthia addresses me pretending like Ayla doesn’t exist I see the bright circles of grey around her eyes. Letting me know that Willow is dying to take over. Ayla is jealous of the fact that two she- wolves are trying to flirt with me and honestly, it is a turn-on. So much so that for a second I am so distracted I can’t really comprehend what Cynthia is saying. Something about me wanting my pack to do something.
She then tells me she feels like I still deserve better, the puzzle pieces are falling into place now Cynthia is using the fact that my family and I love to give the pack the chance to come to us with every concern as a reason to talk badly about her future Queen. All I can do is nod at her because she has a point and I can hardly tell her to shut the hell up. Especially not now that most of the pack is looking at us to see how this is all going to play out. The more she speaks the more Conan

wants to swoop in and take over. He likes Cynthia talking to us like our mate isn’t even here less than me. I can at least keep my head cool enough to not snap at her. Even when my entire b*dy is tensed up because she is just talking s hit now. I need to put her in her place but in a way that doesn’t come off as frantic or aggressive. Whether I like it or not I always need to keep my reputation and status in mind.
Ayla finds the right words before I do, there is venom in her normally soft and gentle voice as she addresses Cynthia. I can barely suppress the chuckle when Ayla calls Cynthia Gingersnaps, the media does not portray our people kindly. But Gingersnaps must be one of the worst
movies of all time. Ayla growls the last words but he

expected when someone openly and blatantly tells your mate they are. better suited for them in front of you. Other than that she delivers her sharp words with a poised elegance that is befitting a Queen. I want all of this to be over soon because her behaving so poised and calm all while teeming with jealousy is driving me crazy with a need for her.
Without any hesitation, I finish off what Ayla started, not that she needs me to. Cynthia and Anna do however because I wanted to make it abundantly clear that for me no one can even hold a candle to my perfect mate, to my fated mate. Neither of them seems to be pleased when I’m done talking but they both scurry off.
“Darling, you were amazing what do you say…” I start but I get cut off by Cynthia’s father rushing up to us.
Unlike his daughter, Sam is a kind man, and soft-spoken, his mate, Cynthia’s mother died while giving birth he never got a second chance. mate. Not that I think he wanted to. So now I wonder why he is rushing up to us. Where his daughter ignored Ayla, Sam’s attention seems to fully be on her. Even with someone as kind as Sam, I feel a pit stir in my stomach. Ready to defend my mate and protect her from everything,

“Please, Princess and Crown Prince accept my apologies for my daughter’s behavior. This makes me think I should have been stricter with her. It has just been hard raising her without her mother you know.” He tells us earnestly.
“It’s fine I cannot exactly blame her for thinking my mate is a catch because he is. And I know the way it started between me and Griff raised some eyebrows. I am sure in time she will see how happy we both are and be happy for us too. And I hope she finds her own mate soon, so she gets to feel what we feel” I am not entirely sure that Ayla doesn’t blame Cynthia but she is intuitive enough to know Sam can’t help it and is feeling bad enough about it.
“As always I am with my mate Sam. Well I do not intend to ever leave Ayla for anyone, I am not mad at her lapse in judgment I am sure it won’t happen again” I smile at him hoping he still hears the treat in my words.
Because I will not allow anyone to talk badly about Ayla. I just hope Cynthia and Anna won’t bother her when Ayla moves into the castle. She has had enough bad experiences with members of her pack looking down on her without needing it from her new pack too. It is no longer about me being scared she will run for the hills when my pack doesn’t accept her. I just know it would hurt her and I want to do everything in my power and beyond to make sure Ayla never gets hurt again.
“I love you, Darling, I am going to make sure nob*dy will ever hurt you again you know that right?” I ask her the moment Sam is out of earshot.
“I know, handsome and I won’t let anyone hurt you either we are a team now remember” She says and the joy of her giving me a sweet nickname is like nothing else.
