The Prince’s Unwilling mate

058 Ayla

Griffin had thought of everything, he even had rental cars waiting for us at the airport. The Cresent Moon pack was still relatively new after splitting up from their old pack. The smell of sawdust still lingered in the air. But everything they had done so far was beautiful.

The pack house looked like a ski–ing resort, all around it were smaller wooden cabins. A lot has changed since I brought Kate here Almost two months ago now, days before I met Griffin. Just like the pack ground of the Cresent Moon Pack, a lot had changed for me. And I was able to admit to myself now that the things that changed were improvements. Yesterday when Griffin refused to mark me, claimas his I felt upset. Turned down even, but the more I thought about it the more I knew he was right. And the more I felt like I was lucky to have a mate that was this patient with me.

He squeezed my hand when he sawsmiling, as we drove up to Kate: and Tim’s cabin. Despite his nerves, he realized how happy I was to finally see my sister again. He was happy for me, he always is. In the almost two months I have known him now, this man has becmy biggest supporter. I told myself that when the weekend was over I would email Queen Isabella to see if we could up the training. He was right I might not be ready to move in with him now. I might not be ready to beca queen now. But I would do everything I could to make sure I was going to be ready soon. Because I love this man and there is nothing that could stopfrom loving him.

“Aylaa, Grandma, Grandpa” Kate squealed before we even got out of the

car.

As soon as I got out she wrappedup in a big bear hug. Tellinghow good I looked, completely ignoring Griffin. Kate always was like this she would get over excited and forget her surroundings.

“I missed you too Kate and look who I brought with me,” I told her taking a step to the side so she could see Griffin

She turned pale, made a deep bow, and started stuttering addressing Griffin by his official title. Which madechuckle

“Please, Griffin is fine, we are family now” My wonderful mate chuckled offering Kate his hand.

“If we’re family we hug” Kate retorted hugging him before he had the tto refuse.

Watching the two of them like that warmed my heart. Even when I was certain Kate would accept Griffin, it was nice to see how welcomed and loved Griffin was by my family. I was close to both my siblings and not seeing them every day was something I would get used to eventually. But I would always miss them even if all three of us were happy where we were. However, getting along with each other’s mates would mean it would be so much easier to visit each other frequently. Both Kate and Daniel had expressed the wish to start a family and to have pups. As did

I and we always wanted our children to be close. This was a step in the right direction. When Kate was greeting our Grandparents I turned to hug Tim.

He was looking at his mate jumping around happy to see her family again. He was smiling, everyone could tell from just looking at him that he adored her. And that her happiness in this moment made him glow.

“It’s good to see you again, Tim. And I see you’ve been treating my sister well she is glowing” I complimented him,

“Well there is something else that is making her glow,” He said with a dreamy look on his face.

I figured he meant her seeing her family but when Kate heard him I saw her touch her stomach for the briefest of moments. Could it be that my younger sister was already expecting her first pup? Thinking back two weeks ago she hardly texted any of us back. Tim had let us know there was nothing to worry about. That could have easily been because she went into heat. You never know when you first get into heat after you complete the mating process but one thing is the sfor every she- wolf. When you get into heat you will get pregnant until you use a special shot to not conceive.

I made eye contact with Kate but she just winked at me. Mom, Dad, and Daniel would be here in another hour so it made sense she would want to tell us all at once. Still, the excitement of the possibility ofbecoming an aunt madegiddy with excitement. I needed something

to do, to not blurt out what

was feeling so I asked her where Griffin and I would be sleeping so that we could unpack and freshen up.

Tim brought us to the pack house, and with Griffin being the Crown Prince of course both the Alpha and Luna cover to greet us. I loved how they didn’t dress up for it Alpha Laura was in a simple dress. While Luna Sylvie wore jeans, flip–flops and a t–shirt.

“Why are we unpacking now, you seemed so excited when you saw Kate. You are still buzzing with joy, I could unpack on my own your know. If you want to spend more twith your sister” Griffin offered as soon as we got into our room for the weekend.

“I have to avoid her for about an hour or so, I think she is pregnant and wants to wait until my parents arrive and I cannot avoid this topic for an hour when I am with her” I answered him.

He seemed to want to asksomething before thinking the better of it. He just shook his head smiling and started to unpack his bag.

“Would you be excited to be an aunt” He finally asked as we were sitting on the bed, all our clothes stored away in the dresser in the room.

“I already am excited I cannot wait to be an aunt. I want to be close to

her children, I want our children to be close to hers and Daniel’s” I said,

Poor Daniel thought he had stopped looking for his mate because if he would find her. With him being in the running for taking over as the lead warrior when our dad retires. It would mean his mate would have to move in with the BloodMoon pack. Even before the fight between David and Griffin, we knew our family would cut ties with the Blood Moon pack. Everyone was just waiting for the perfect moment. Griffin had offered my family that they could find a place within the royal pack too. My parents considered this to be a weakness. Not because they did not want to be a part of the royal pack. If they did they would want it to be for their own merits not just because their eldest daughter is the Crown Prince’s mate.

The plan now was to move back to the WhiteOak pack, we just needed Alpha Phillip to accept it without causing a war. Which seemed to be at problem, ever since it was public that I was Griffin’s mate and the Queen–to–be he seemed even more hellbent on keeping the rest of my family in his pack. To create skind of good standing with the royal family. It worriedto the point where I could not sleep at night. When I was not with Griffin.

Griffin looked atlike he was building up the courage to asksomething. Something big. This time I did not get anxious about it though, this tI figured it was a question about our future as we started with talking about pups. But when a servant of the Cresent Moon pack let us know my parents arrived and that Kate and Tim asked if we would join them at their hfor a late lunch. All my worries and all my hopes were forgotten all I wanted now was to see if I was becoming
