SWNOVELS Chapter 186

“Oh, sweetie sit down do you want me to make you some tea?” Dean speaks up
stunning everyone in the room.
He was causing, Cynthia to skid to a halt. Before snapping at him why he would
offer her tea, as she doesn’t need one. I was wondering the same thing. I would
ask him about it later as he seemed so certain of his question that I figured he
had a valid reason for offering her tea.
“Well, my granny said it helps with a broken heart, I don’t know much about a
broken ego. But you know as your pack mate I figured I would try to stop you
from embarrassing yourself further. We all love our Princess, and a dozen pack
mates are applying for the position of her Gemma. We all think you are a
nuisance. The pack fool and honestly girly I pity you. Even your fated mate never
tried to contact you again.” His smile is sickeningly sweet but his voice is dripping
with acid.
Krystel and the other two pack members in the hall burst out laughing. And as
much as I tried to stop it I could not hold it back either.
“And who are you to get involved with my business?” Cynthia tried to save face.
“Dean is my Gemma, and because he is higher ranked than you.” Krystel and
Dean turned to face me like clockwork. Cynthia stared at me with an open mouth.
And I wanted to clasp my hands over my mouth.
The answer had come out instantly, without thinking about it. But when I did think
about it, I knew it felt right. All I wanted was a Gemma who would fit in with the
rest of the group. One I was sure I could build a friendship with. Dean and I had
instantly hit it off. And
knowing my Gemma would have my back so fiercely helped too. It was not like I
blamed the other pack members for not interrupting Cynthia. It was more that
everyone knew she had been harassing me. They must have known she was not
here to apply for the position as my Gemma. And even if she was, it would not be
grounds for her to just burst through the door.
After seeing how he reacted, I seriously doubted if Dean had let her get that far.
Cynthia must have felt too humiliated she just stormed out without so much as
another word,
“Excuse me. Princess Ayla, are you serious?” Dean asked me, all of his bravado
was gone like he was scared to be disappointed when I told him I wasn't.
“I do, you sit down I need to let the other two candidates know, and then we can
discuss the rest,” I told him, feeling a bit guilty for the two girls who had been
waiting for their interview for most of the afternoon to never get a chance.
“Don't worry Princess Ayla, we get it you must be able to blindly trust your
Gemma and after that” Lianne smiled at me.
There was a tinge of disappointment in her voice, and her friend Jessica seemed
somewhat defeated when she got up. However, the two of them seemed very
genuine and went as far as to shout a congratulation to Dean via the open door.
Now all I needed to do was go over the rest of the details with Dean. Hoping he
would agree to them, if he wouldn't I would have made a fool of myself just now.
And I hoped he wouldn't feel pressured to agree with the terms now. To save me
from the embarrassment.

“Before, we discuss terms and what not I want to answer your first question,
Princess Ayla.” Dean was the one to speak first before I sat
His answer didn’t matter that much anymore, but if he wanted to tell me I would
of course hear him out. So I sat down, took the coffee Krystel had made me, and
nodded at him.
“I love this pack, when I grew up I knew I wanted to contribute to the pack. I just
never knew how. And then we found out all about you, and what you have been
through. I know in the beginning some of the pack members found fault in you
taking your time getting to know Griffin. But to me, it showed so much strength, in
all your appearances you seem so collected and kind. You really are as
impressive as a royal wolf should be. But you still seemed so kind and down to
earth. I told my mom I wanted to help you out. She was the one who heard you
were interviewing people to be your Gemma. She suggested I should go and
when I thought about it she was right. I instantly knew as your Gemma I could
both help you and the pack.” Most of the answers to that question had been
short. One max to sentences.
Hearing how passionate Dean was about helping me and helping out the pack
made me even more sure of my decision. Picking an unmated wolf as my
Gemma was a bit of a risk. he could very well find his mate and learn they are
even higher ranked than a Gemma is. We would cross that bridge if we ever
came to it.

All that was left to do now was to go
over the terms. Telling him he would
get as much pay as the other

He didn't have a rank now but he had
a job. He worked at one of the pack
restaurants as a server. Of course, as
the Princess I could insist they let
him go right away. His notice was
two weeks and he wanted to finish
his notice because he had enjoyed
his job so much. Not only did it speak
volumes about him as a person. The

There was no immediate need for him to start right away, and I never
wanted to be the kind of ruler who would use her power to get her way.

“Any luck finding your Gemma” Griffin wanted to know as soon as I stepped into
the kitchen where he was cooking us a steak dinner.
