The Prince’s Unwilling mate

Chapter 139

139 Griffin Ever since that first day of taking care of Ayla, I had been at her side. I would shower at the showers in the hospital. Eat the foods family and friends brought me. And every day like that first day I took care of her. I would wash the body with her favorite soap. I would massage her with her favorite body lotion. After that, I would brush her hair. Either blow-drying it after having washed her hair. On other days I just used the leave-in conditioner to keep her hair soft and shiny now that she was lying on it so much. For seven days, I had been caring for her like that. And of course, it was worth it. Of course spending time with her was still better than not being able to spend time with her alone. I just wish that it would help, that I would get the slightest bit of a reaction. And now for the first time in a week, I needed to leave her side. Mom and Dad had come. over to discuss some of the issues with the BloodMoon pack and how we would handle it from here on out. I understood why I needed to be there with them. I just hated that I had to be away from her for more than ten minutes. “Knock Knock” Dad’s voice interrupted my somber thoughts. I told him to come on in, and of course, mom was with him too. We had been on the phone every day and most of these days they asked to be put on loudspeaker wanting to talk to Ayla. Now they brought her flowers and scented candles. Another I noticed Mom carrying was Ayla’s copy of Pride and Prejudice. “There is no need for the three of us to be there with her. You need to be present for the meeting. But I don’t so I will just be here reading to my daughter-in-law” Mom stated that she would not accept anyone trying to stop her. She just sat down next to Ayla and opened up the < 1288 Vouchers book. Not that I was about to stop her, I still rather would have been the one sitting next to her. Like Mom said though I cannot, I need to be present in this meeting. But doing so knowing that Ayla wasn’t alone. That she was someone close to her, and someone who loved her was reassuring, to say the least. After kissing my mom’s cheek and Ayla’s forehead I led Dad to the big meeting hall

where we needed to be. Dad and Jay caught up for a little while before we all sat down to have a good conversation. “I am going to come right out of the woodwork with this one” Jay started the meeting. As I had suspected he was not happy being the Alpha. There was no doubt it wasn’t because he could not handle the responsibilities to be an Alpha. He handled them well, after all, it was in blood. He had told me before that he was willing to make the pack better. It was his daughter’s wish and for that alone, he tried to do more than his best. This pack however was so damaged by the previous Alpha that there was no real pack bond left. No loyalty, as much as the pack seemed to love the Hemmings a their new leaders. Some of the pack members. were already looking at moving to neighboring packs. Or moving back. home to the packs they or their partner came from. It was why Jay wanted to stop the battle to try and rebuild the pack. Because he seemed to be the only one that did. “I propose we just revoke the Blood Moon’s pack rights. It will mean every habitant needs to find a new place to live. They can just stay in here as long as they need to. As long as they know that it would be a temporary solution, nothing long-term.” Dad suggested and everyone agreed with him. In the end, I do think it is the best solution to all the issues. It was a 3): 72% 139 Coffin 288 Wouchers shame but there was no way we to salvage this pack. Everyone was happy to know there was an end coming to this mess. Sadly enough that wasn’t all we needed to discuss. We needed to discuss what we were going to do with Hannah the council of elders would want to speak to her to see if she was indeed guilty of kidnapping Ayla. Because she did not physically kidnap her. Nor was it her idea, but she knew that Ayla was being kidnapped and abused, and not only did she not help her. She not mention it t anyone, in fact it was the other way around and she was lied to keep the kidnapping hidden. She helped David where she could. The fact that she did it out of some twisted idea of love did. not help her case. It could only work against her because she had personal gain

from the kidnapping. She had told us she never cared about Ayla being with me. Her master plan in all of this was to make David see she was a much better mate than Ayla was. However, I told her we as the royal family would vouch for her being executed. Sure I could break my promise but that isn’t the kind of man, the kind of King I want to be. And there now was a pup involved. And no matter how much I hate that pup’s parent. The pup is innocent and deserves my protection too. It was a difficult decision and we we made. some plans but we were unable to come up with a set plan on what to do. The Elder council would have to take the lead on this one. The fact that we still had no clue where David and the others were was not helping either. Hannah had sworn up and down that she did not know where the others went to. Maybe if she had ever proven herself worthy of our faith we would have taken her word for it. Even if she would have assisted David in the kidnapping, Hannah, however, has shown. herself to lie to get whatever she wanted. The last topic on the agenda was Ayla, we needed to decide if we would still try to keep her alive at the pack hospital. And which pack 川 1288 Mouchers hospital bcause I am not sure she the BloodMoon pack hospital would be fully equipped and working for much longer. Not with the pack doctor wanting to go home to the White Oak pack. Ayla would just go home to the castle with us, Where she needed to be I would even look into hiring a private nurse so she could just lay in the bedroom. She would feel me getting into the bed that was full of the scent of me. Then I would fall asleep with her wrapped up in my arms. I kept telling myself that it was all on her behalf. That I was sure that this was the one trick to would finally pull her from her coma. Before I could suggest hiring the private nurse though Mom called out for all of us through the mindlink, she was in the room with Ayla. Telling me that whatever made her call out for us through the minlink had to do with Ayla. Not wanting to wait for a second later than. O rExclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
