The Prince’s Unwilling mate

Chapter 167

167 Ayla “Surprise, Darling” Griffin murmured into my ear as he took the plate of tacos from my hand. Allowing me the chance to hug my sister. “You look radiant, Kate, absolutely glowing,” I tell her still holding her tight. I miss Kate, we always knew we most likely would end up living in different packs. With three siblings it’s not really common to all find a mate in the same pack. Grandpa was lucky, he chose Aunt Alexandra as his Beta long before he met Grandma. Before Uncle Nic met his mate, and that Grandma wanted Nic as her beta. That is why they could stick together but it wasn’t common. I know all three of us are happy now with our mates and lives. Dan about to become a part of the Silver Moon pack too is amazing. He will soon be accepted into the pack, Krys and he waited for me to be accepted first. Now it will probably be after my heat so Grffin and I can be present for it. Meaning Kate might not be able to since she cannot travel too much when she is pregnant. Sometimes I hate how much my life and the things that happen to me influence everyone else’s lives too. Seeing Kate the last time, seeing her growing belly reminded me of that. As while as reminding me of the future I felt was robbed from me. Kate unaware of my inner turmoil lets go of me and beams when she tells me. “From what I hear soon you will be too” This girl is the kindest person ever, even if she is a fierce warrior. She hates being told how kind she is, and I do not want to start more drama tonight. Not weighing us down with the heaviness of everything that is happening all around me still. So I nod at her smiling and go in to hug Tim. @007 III O 1035) 167 Ayla 288 Vouchers

“I’m lucky that she-wolf wore a cheap dress or well according to your sister she did” He whispers making it seem as if he knew Kate was going to knock the wine out of her hand. I raise an eyebrow, and he scratches his neck awkwardly like he remembered he wasn’t supposed to tell me he knew about it. Then I think back to what Cynthia said and how all of them kept getting in her way. “Guys, what is going on with Cynthia?” I ask the three of them just as Dillion walks up and hearing my word he makes a U-turn back to where he came from.. Griffin is quick to grab the collar of his shirt and pull him back. “Oh no, you’re part of this too I told you guys to be subtle” I didn’t know how to feel about the fact that Griffin had gone behind my back to deal with the Cynthia situation. Not just doing as I asked and giving her a second chance. On the other hand, she had proved she would have abused that second chance. And Dillion shrugging telling Griff; “We’re werewolves what did you expect us to do?” made me chuckle. “I am happy you’re not mad Darling, I just was a little unsure if Cynthia would lash out when I proposed. Since that was a surprise I couldn’t come out and ask you what we should do. So I did as I promised, I just asked Dillion and the others to keep a subtle eye on her. Just to make sure she would not ruin my proposal. I wanted it to be a good memory that you would treasure for the rest of your life” He had the decency to look guilty at least. “Yeah, but the second Griffin here got down on a knee I heard her mumble she wouldn’t allow this.

But I could see that he was proud he had been able to help me as his friend, and as one of the leaders of the pack and the country. Sure they had gone behind my back a little but for a good cause, they didn’t harm Cynthia either. And spared me from being splashed in red wine because she was a petty bi ch. Griffin managed to plan my perfect proposal making sure my entire close family including Kate and Tim were here. With the help of the others, the old me would have gotten mad over the fact that they hid something from me. The old me would have seen the fact that they wanted to protect me from Cynthia’s crazy as a sign of my weakness. Now I see it for what it really is, all of them loved me enough to want me to have the perfect night. Not because they thought I was incapable of dealing with the burden of Cynthia disliking me. It wasn’t because they figured I would not be able to protect myself from crazy either. It was because they wanted me to have the best night ever and they were able to help me. “Well, thanks for helping me out guys, let’s move to the side so I can finally eat my tacos” I told them hoping to convey I realized what they did for me and how grateful I was for it. Going off the smiles that shot me and the light banter between us as we made our way to the rest of my family, they did. I honestly love the love and respect the Silver Moon pack gave me from the moment I stepped off the podium after the ceremony up till now. But it was a bit overwhelming and I loved the fact that I could just chill with my family for a bit. “Dad, why did you get so emotional when you knew Griff was about to propose? You knew we were mated already?” I needed to know because to most wolves marriage is less important than completing the mating process. And with a reason marking each other meant you vowed to yourselves, the pack, and the Moon Goddess that you 51.55% 111 O < 10 35 167 Ayla

1288 Vouchers accepted one another as your fated mate. While marriage was more of a party to celebrate your love with the pack and to make the humans aware of the bond between you and your mate. Or as much as they could understand it anyway. Being marked and being married are not the same thing. You can get divorced relatively easily. It’s just a legal procedure, split up the asset and move on with your life. Breaking the mate bound was something else entirely it was near impossible. And you would not just lose your relationship and your home. You would lose your home, and your community, and if things went south you could easily lose your life. There are five recorded cases of wolves breaking their bond. Two of them ended up dead, after speaking to Selene I knew why it could happen. Why not every mate was the perfect mate putting their mate’s needs above their own? Still as excited I was about getting married to Griff me being his marked mate mattered so much more to me. “Actually, it was something Alpha Philip said a long time ago.
