The Prince’s Unwilling mate

Chapter 100

Griffin 100 “Come on Dan, enough feeling sad, we’re only gonna feel better when we have her back with us,” I tell Dan as 1 stand up. He follows me, not saying a word but I can see how determined he is from the look on his face. The way he bites his lower lip. As ashamed as I was to have needed so much time to get my a ss into gear. I’m ready now, so I walk into the meeting room where the others are gathered. “Sorry everyone, I just was feeling a little overwhelmed tell me what you found so far, and what I can do to help?” I ask them before sitting down. I hate the fact they look at me with so much pity, even if I do get it. Jessa just like her best friend would is the first one to speak up. “We get it Griffin you must be scared but we need you here come look at what I found” She beckons me over. On her phone, she has a social media profile of what seems to be Hannah. The last post is one of her in a bridal boutique. Captioned “When he doesn’t know he is about to propose yet” Her social media is not private and she has a lot of human followers. At first, I don’t get it, marrying isn’t something every wolf does. Sure I wanted to marry my mate because I like the romance of it. Because I want to have everyone even the humans accept our bond. Hannah could never know that though, so why would she think she was going to get a proposal if it was not for someone else? “No, she has a ton of human followers, and she tends to show of what we as werewolves do as a human thing,” Jessa explains showing me a few other posts. 0.00% O Griffin 100 288 IVouchers It’s weird for a wolf to be so excited about showing off our lives to humans but who am I to judge? Now that I look beyond the weird caption I can see that Hannah had always been very active on social media. Suddenly she stopped, the bridal gown post that was posted the day before Ayla went

home to the White Oak pack is her last post. “That’s not all, while Hannah’s post seems to hint at her involvement I pulled up some records from other pack members” Gerald adds in He shows me profile after profile and every single pack member of the Blood Moon pack has stopped posting anything since that same day. Ayla’s parents tell me how after the death of their former Alpha and Luna the members of the pack stopped reaching out to them. A lot haven’t even been online since that day. We all knew it was David, nob*dy in this room believed that Ayla had left me for him. In order for us to do anything to attack the Blood Moon pack we needed proof. At least enough to have reasonable doubt, the pack’s behavior is very suspicious, to say the least. Combined with the fact that now over a week later he still has not let us know he is the new Alpha gives us enough reason to speak to the council. “I’ve already contacted the council they will be here after dinner,” Dad tells me. This will help speed things along, the council is an org an of elders, from all packs. I might be the Crown Prince but the royal family does not have the last word in matters of war. To be sure there is an honest real they function like a sort of parlement. “Let’s keep at it, find as much proof as we can,” I tell everyone. Upon hearing this Daniël pulls out his phone like he just thought of something. He furiously texts someone, before looking up with a smile. “David’s number is out of order, he must have a new number so we 21.48% O ୮ 14:150 Griffin 100 cannot track him or something like that.” He tells us, he texted him so David he is sure it’s not just because David blocked him.

It’s a smart move, he congratulated David on being mated with Ayla again. Not only is this a text that wouldn’t have made David suspicious if he had seen it. With how big the family is for werewolves, and how clear it is Ayla is very family orientated, it would be weird for her brother not to have her mate’s new number. Following his lead I call Ayla, to hear the message I am getting. Her phone goes straight to voicemail. It was to be expected but that doesn’t make it hurt less. To hear her cheery voice, having to fear I might never again. But I need to focus on the positives. Two new mates not being in contact with everyone is already suspicious. With the circumstances surrounding it, including the entire White Oak pack having seen Ayla at the farewell party. Where she told everyone about moving in with me so excitedly. The more I think about it the less I get why David thinks he is getting away with this. I know my wonderful, intelligent mate. She is not going to believe him either. We struggled to get to where we are and I understand how it could color the opinions of others about us. About our bond, our relationship but I know how strong we have gotten. I know we are not doubting each other anymore. *** We have spent the rest of the afternoon gathering evidence and trying to find hints as to where she could be. Part of me still just wants to go to the Blood Moon pack, but we are not sure where he is keeping her. It is quite a bit of a travel to go there. We contacted the human authorities that are aware of werewolves existing. The department that helps keep our presence a secret, as long as we werewolves do not attack humans. They will also help us during criminal cases in our communities. So we requested camera footage of all the commercial airports. There has been no sighting of Ayla on any of them. Making it 46.68% O r 14:16 Griffin 100 far less likely that she is at the BloodMoon pack already.

1 Going there no proverbial guns blazing, will only alert David to the fact that we do not believe him. As I am realizing this I know what I need to do next. But it is scary and if Ayla would see it there is a risk she won’t believe me and her heart will break. On the other hand, if it helps keep her safe it is worth the risks. I underestimated Ayla before and I promised her I would never do it again. Maybe there I can give a hint, to let her know it is all for show. “I think we need to announce the website that Ayla called of our mateship” As soon as I am finished everyone starts speaking at once. Of course, everyone hates this idea, David will see it and the chances of him showing Ayla are very high. But the more I think about it, the more I believe in my plan. “Listen up!” I shout drawing the attention of all the wolves in the room to me. “I want David to think I believe him, so that he feels safe, so that he won’t hurt Ayla. We need to post a picture next to the article and to be sure that she sees the hints. That she understands why I am doing this.” Together we come up with a plan, I will put her copy of Pride and Prejudice on my desk. Jay suggests I wear one of his sweaters, so she knows her parents are here with me. “Maybe you should record yourself, not have a written statement. Because like that we can add in way more hints. Like drinking a coffee in the mugs you always use for the morning coffee you always make her in bed.” Jessa suggests and together we come up with a plan. We have another hour before the council gets here. It would mean I have to sk ip out on dinner but I have an appetite either way so that is exactly what I will do. Maybe after we have spoken to the council and we have plans set in motion I will be able to finally eat something. 74.18% ||| rCcontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
