The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

Chapter 174



171 Griffin
As soon as I noticed that the commotion outside our door wasn't going to stop I
wanted to kill whoever was trying to bash in our door. Ayla was too far gone in
her heat now, for the next three days she would barely be able to have a real
conversation with me. Or not about anything else but me but our future at least.
As for me, I had just enough control left to get off the bed and go see who was at
the door- not bothering getting dressed, or doing anything to hide my arousal.
Everyone in this pack knew exactly what they were walking into. If something
serious was up they could have mindlinked me
“Don't Griff” Dillion called out to me as soon as the door cracked open.
He should have known it only made me more curious. As a result, I swung open
the door entirely to be faced with Cynthia. Maybe I should have covered up more
because I did not like the lustful gaze she swept over my naked body.
“You stank up the entire place with the smell of sex between you and our future
Queen” Dillion spoke as he rushed over.
While the heat doesn't affect male wolves as much as it does she- wolves. We
are not immune to it either and with being a royal wolf. My dominance is stronger
and Cynthia deliberately disturbing my mate and me when in heat. It could cause
me to lose control and rip her throat out. Dillion’s joke brought me back to the
present, reminding me of what I was doing. What I would be doing again in
seconds if I just dealt with this quickly?
“What is it you want Cynthia?" I snarled gripping the door frame. I could faintly
hear Ayla moan.

With her being too far lost in the heat I could only imagine what she was doing. I
wanted to be with her, she should be doing those things. with me. Not to mention
how vulnerable she was now. I didn’t want. the others to overhear her because
the door was open.
“I am offering you one last chance, Griffin you know I am a better. match for...”
From there on out everything happened lightning fast.
all
Dillion growled as he pulled Cynthia from the door. The man was jokes ninety
percent of the time. But he was loyal to a fault, and the anger coming off of him in
waves as the insult to his future Queen clearly left him on edge.
“Thank you, Dillion, bring her to her father please we will decide what to do when
the heat is over” I ordered him.
Not because I like ordering around my friend, but because I didn’t know what he
was capable of with how mad Cynthia made him. I was right too because the
disappointment that he could not punish her was written all over his face. All I
wanted was to go back to Ayla though and see what she was doing. Never did I
expect to see her teasing me like that, playing with me like that and in that
moment I got lost in the heat too.
I woke up to Ayla rubbing up to me still sleeping. Hours ago she had passed out
during her org asm. It wasn't even uncommon for she- wolves still it scared me
for a few seconds. Until I noticed she had drifted off into a peaceful sleep. I was
tired too and I must fallen asleep. not long after. Ayla wasn't up yet but she was
getting there that much was clear. I slipped out of bed to make us our coffee.
Determined to not even let the heat come between me making her a coffee.
By the time I got back, Ayla was still asleep, which made sense as the heat was
tiring. However, she had gotten restless without me. After

placing both coffee mugs on my nightstand. I crawled big into bed. with her as
the big spoon she calmed down for a few seconds before rubbing up to me
again, Clearly she didn’t need to be fully awake to feel the effects of the heat.
Since we both fell asleep naked yesterday a plan formed in my mind. I pushed
her flush against my body. My erection rested between her butt cheeks as I
wrapped my arms around her. My hand made my way to her pu ssy, starting to
play with her.
She woke up moaning riding my hand, as soon as she opened her eyes looking
over her shoulder. I thrust into her, she throws her head back. instantly matching
my rhythm again. Her face was no longer, soft and sleepy. Now her eyes are
opened wide, darkened with lust. She pulls. her knee up making me go deeper
again. I love how loud she is now, usually, she is a little more reserved. Not
wanting to have the entire pack here with us. Now she didn’t care anymore. It
was raw and desperate and I loved every second of it Even if like this it never
took longer, than twenty minutes. I feel her clench around my c ock as she
becomes undone. And I followed her soon.
As soon as I pull out she turns to me, face calm and soft again. She mumbles a
sweet good morning into my chest. For a few moments, we do not speak, just
lying here snuggled up together. Until her stomach rumbles, Ayla sits up, so I sit
up with her, handing her, her mug of coffee. Eaming me a bright smile, I think
back to yesterday evening, Maybe I should tell her about Cynthia but there is no
telling how she is going to respond when she is hormonal like this. I want to
believe that she still is the same kind and sweet girl as I know her to be. But with
the heat, you can never be sure. And honestly, I wanted to stay in this peaceful,
bubble with her. I am sure she will understand if I will tell her later.
Because no matter what, we need to deal with Cynthia because at this rate she
is never going to stop. Nothing that she does is severe enough to inflict real
punishments on her. No matter how much I want it. Honestly, I don’t eyen think
Ayla wants to because she is a lot kinder

than I am. So for now I am going to leave it be. Instead, I went out of the room, to
see if any of the pack members left meals already. Sure I could whip up some
breakfast for the two of us. But neither of us can bear to be away from each other
for too long. I always miss her when she is not close to me but normally I would
be more than able to be away for her just to make breakfast. But the heat isn’t
just about lust it makes everything more intense. Including how much we love
each other and how much we miss each other when we are not closer.
Luckily even with the short time we have been locked up in our chambers.
Several pack members have left meals, and talismans. outside of our door. Most
I can guess who they are from there is just one odd parcel. I just take them all
inside and bring the still-hot chicken and waffles no doubt made by Milo to the
bedroom.

That is why I declined her offer it wouldn't be fair to any of us. Not on Jessa who
would then spend a large part of her life in a job she did not want. Not on me
because I would always feel guilty about forcing my best friend into doing
something she didn’t want to. And not on the pack and the country who deserved
a Gemma who was all in. Someone who wanted this job to help me take care of
the pack.
Her father Theo had been a homemaker by choice. That is why we spent most of
our childhood there. When she offered me to become my Gemma I reminded her
of that and told her she should just expect all our pups to hang around their home
as the rest of us were working leading the country. Adding in the would have the
hardest job out of all of them. At the time it was a joke, to make her feel better
about not helping out as she put it. Now I laid my hands down on my stomach
because that fantasy might become a reality much sooner.
“Did you feel anything, you shouldn't be able to already right?” I hadn't noticed
Griffin walk in with our coffees just as I was cradling my stomach.
Another sign that the heat was dwindling, seeing I was not hyper- focused on
Griffin anymore.
“No I am not, just thinking about the fact that I might very well be pregnant now” I
smiled at Griffin. The heat may have come much sooner than either of us
expected.
We both have always wanted a big family, I wanted at least three pups. Probably
because of how happy I was growing up with a younger brother and sister. We all
had our own friends, but still, we had an inseparable bond. Even now that we had
grown up we still did. Sure we didn't live in the same house anymore and we did
not speak to each other daily. Not even Dan and me even though we lived in the
same pack. Still, I know without a doubt in my mind that they would always be
there for me when I needed them too. As I would for them.

“It seems like you are feeling more like yourself today?” Griffin asked as he
settled in the bed next to me.
I nodded taking a sip of my coffee just being content with sitting so close to him
this time. Not feel the need to practically crawl in his Ja p to get as much physical
contact as I could.
am I think we can spend today getting our bearings, looking at all the gifts we
have gotten. And let the pack know we will be back to our usual work starting
tomorrow?” I suggested being met with his bright smile as he agreed with me
We both know that if push came to shove we would have been able to get back
to the grind today if it was needed Luckily we were in the calm before the storm,
as it was good to have a day together Where we could just enjoy each other's
company Let the effect of the heat slowly wane Not to mention that I had seen
the ridiculous amount of offerings we had The list of meals Grillin had kept that
were brought to us. I wanted to write to each and every pack member who left us
a gift Either as a welcome to the pack gift or as a blessing for our heat a
handwritten thank you note
A sincere thank you, both because my pack deserved so. And secondly to show
them the kind of leader I was going to be to them. I had seen firsthand the
damage an arrogant leader who values themselves above their pack could do. It
left me determined to show my pack, our pack, that I was their equal We all had a
role to play in this pack and this country’s dynamic While mine was a heavy
burden to carry, it was not the only role of importance The strength in a pack, in a
country, liest with its weakest link. There was only one Luna, One Queen, but
there were dozens of warriors and pack doctors and even more omegas Their
voice could grow louder than just my voice
“Let's enjoy one last meal made for us by Milo, and then maybe we can have
breakfast in the pack kitchen tomorrow?” Grillin suggested showing me we were
both on the same level.

“Darling, there is something I need to tell you, please now I only kept it from you
because of the circumstances” Griffin started after being quiet and thoughtful for
a few moments. I understood why he had not told.
me.
After all the heat would have made me a little unstable. That didn’t mean I hated
the fact that we never seemed to be able to catch a break. I did not regret
anything that happened to me or to us. I believe my life. and experiences so far
shaped me up to the person I was today. And I had no doubt it had led met to
Griffin. With that it lead me to the best thing that ever happened to me. All I
wanted now is a break, just enjoy getting to know this pack, learning how to rule
it. And settle into the life I was creating with Griffin without threats from the
outside. Without people trying to mess with our relationship.
“How bad it is” I asked Griff trying hard and failing harder to keep the exhaustion
out of my voice.
“Well compared to all the shi t we went through together I would say it's more of
an annoyance than a serious matter” His answer was humorless.
He wasn't making a joke to downplay what had happened he seriously. thought
what happened wasn't all that bad. It was just something he needed to share with
me. It comforted me a little. So I settled down into the cus hions of the new
comfortable couch to listen to what he was about to tell me. He started by
reminding me of that first night when I had gotten into the heat. The time when he
left me alone on the bed to check out what all the commotion at our door was. I
remember not wanting to get up and check it because I was way too preoccupied
by what we were doing.

“It was Cynthia offering me a last chance to be with her and not you. And Dillion
was about to kill her for disrespecting his friend, future Luna, and future Queen
like that. I commanded him to take her home to her father and he was upset he
could not execute any real punishment” Despite the situation, or maybe because
of the absurdity of it, I laughed.
I could see Dillion steaming with anger, wanting to lash out at Cynthia. I also
remember how Griffin had walked out to open the door completely naked, still
turned on by what we had been doing moments before. Griffin was right it was
not a serious situation. Cynthia was a nuisance but she seemed relatively
harmless. To the point where imagining Griffin having to give Dillion commands
as his Crown Prince butt-naked made me laugh.
“So you're not upset, with her or me?” Griff asked me.
“I am not liking her trying to make the moves on my mate. But I actually pity her.
Because I fully trust you, I know I have nothing to worry about. As for you, you've
done nothing wrong.” I kiss his cheek to reassure him even more.

And it seems to work, I see the
tension leave his body as he settles
back into the cus hions of the couch.
He starts to explain that he hates
what Cynthia is doing but that
nothing she does is severe enough to
warrant a real punishment. The most
we can hope for is a bit of social
exclusion. Everyone knows why she
had been locked up during my
kidnapping. What I did not know is
that most if not every pack member
had found my lack of punishment. A
sign of my forgiving nature and
empathy. The content is on

I honestly wanted Cynthia to be reunited with her dad, and not have someone
excluded on a day that was all about celebrating old and new bonds. I ended up
portraying myself in a far better light than she had been doing.

“Maybe we can talk to her, and have her father join the conversation. Just to let
her know that we do not condone this behavior. And warn her of the
consequences. We might not punish her but it's going to damage her standing in
the pack” I suggest, because while I cannot punish her I don’t want to just let it
happen either. Luckily Griffin. agrees with me.
“This is why I know you will be the best Luna and the best Queen I could ever
wish for. Even if you still doubt yourself some time” He beams at me.

Hannah's trial though because
among all the gifts left at our door,
there was one single envelope. At
first, we figured it had a card or a
drawing but it was nothing like that. It
was a letter from the council of Elder
wolves, requesting we let them know
when the heat was over. So they
could be here the next day, to start
with the preparation for the trial. Both
of us want to wait until tomorrow to
let them know. However, changes are
they will find out that we were able to
go back to normal today. And it
would hurt not just our standing with
the council of elders. It would also be
a sign of great disrespect and with
that, it could prove detrimental to the
trial. The content is on

Not wanting to risk it, Griffin decides to contact the council right away. Hoping
that the fact it is already past noon means they are unable to make it here by
tomorrow. It would be the ideal situation where we still have some time to settle
back into our normal life. Without having to prepare for a trial and without having
to lie to the Council of Elders.
“And now we wait” Griff breathes out as he closes the laptop he used to contact
the elders.
He seemed a little down and I had how the last day of what should be a happy
occasion. The day when we should bond even more. Bask in how much stronger
our connection has gotten during this period of heat. Now that we are both back
to our senses, is getting

overshadowed by the things we still have to deal with.
“Baby, I took a bath this morning you're still in your pajamas. Go have a shower
or bath so we can decide on what to have for lunch after.” I prompt Griffin, elated
to see that the use of the nickname still makes him smile like that.
