The Prince’s Unwilling mate

Chapter 172

172 Ayla Like me, he wanted to show our pack, our people that we were one of them. And joining the pack breakfast after having been cooped up for four days was a great sign of showing them that we missed pack life. And we’re happy to be able to be included in it once again. Now though I was going to take a long hot bath before enjoying another, breakfast that Milo made us. He had been the one to make us wonderful meals during these three days. Even on his days off. Other pack members had just left us snacks. I had no doubt Milo made it clear that he was the one cooking for us. I would not only have to write him a thank you note but thank him in person too. Before I could though we would need to sort through all the other gifts we were given. 16:16 III 173 Gatin our union and the fact that Ayla now officially is a member of the Silver Moon Pack. With the timing of all of this the two moments where new couples especially ones that are leaders of a pack get gifts. Were happened back to back, meaning that we got an insane amount of gifts. Some we can not be sure of to which even they relate. Luckily most have cards or notes attached to them. Making it easier to see what it was for and more so who to thank for the gifts. That is why we know some of the other packs, mostly the Alpha’s and Luna’s have sent gifts to bless our mating too. The fact that news traveled so fast did not come as a surprise to me anymore. But it seems to have taken Ayla a little aback. And I cannot help but worry this will still one day prove to be too much for her. Not because I doubt her ability to handle it because, I know she will make the best Luna and Queen there is. And I am sure I will be a better Alpha and King because of her. She truly is my perfect mate. The one that makes me feel whole. Where I hate social function and have a hard time hiding

it. She loves the more casual one and is sociable enough to make it seem like she is enjoying the grand royal events too. Just watching her thrive like that makes being at a royal party so much. more entertaining for me. Nothing beats watching her laugh and dance. The thing is she still does not see herself the way that I do. She still thinks it is incredibly kind of my parents, my friends, and our pack to welcome her with open arms and to show her so much kindness. She still does not get that it is because they can all see how amazing she is to me. How happy she makes me and what I kind and fair ruler she can. be. Well everyone aside from Cynthia can see that. Suddenly I realize that with the heat almost out of her system, Ayla is not ruled by her hormones anymore. That means I.need to tell her about the fact that Cynthia came to my door, our door, to offer me a last chance to be with her. I hate that means I have to interrupt this happy atmosphere. Today should be all about enjoying the milestone 2647% 16 16 173 Goffin 285 Vouchers we just reached as a couple. It should be spent having quality time. together. Bask in the blessings the others have given us for this last milestone. And it should be about dreaming about a future together and not about the one person who doesn’t seem to accept our happiness. Cynthia has always seemed interested in me. Or more so my title I never got the feeling she genuinely liked me for me. Why wouldn’t she, we have nothing in common. She was attracted to the idea of being the Queen. Objectively she would fit the bill and she knows it. She is conveniently beautiful, and strong, even with her father not being a high-ranked wolf. She comes from a strong pure lineage. She loves sticking her nose into other people’s business. The only thing she likes more is hosting and attending opulent parties. Surface-level perfection to be a queen, but worlds apart from what I need in a mate, everyone else saw it. Even with being aware of how much she seemed to like me. Or more so the idea of me being with her. I never considered her to become my chosen mate. Sure I needed to find a Luna forProperty © of NôvelDrama.Org.

my pack. A Queen for my country, but that was just part of it. I needed to find a partner for the rest of my life. Someone who could make me as happy as I can make her. I was looking for a mother for my pups. Someone that I could just be happy with living in a small cabin away from the castle, having our children and grandchildren over after we retired. Something I was sure Cynthia could have never offered me, but I never made it clear enough. I ignored her blatant flirting hoping that one day she would find her mate and get over this silly little crush for the status that she had.

Something that might be worse than outright rejecting him. And even when Sam told me I did not explicitly tell Cynthia that she should give up on her dream future. And now because of that, I had to tell my wonderful fated mate that we had yet another obstacle to overcome.
