The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya the Author novel Chapter 2

044 Ayla 

My phone was in my bag and I just couldn’t reach it. Griffin must be sick with worry now. I was over an hour late. About halfway home at terrible accident had happend, and it slowed down the traffic. It happened about thirty minutes before I got there so I wasn’t involved at all. But it delayed me a lot and I couldn’t risk taking my eyes of the roadt to try and grab my bag. It had started raining there was a lot off debris on the road still. And people were driving as crazy as if they wanted to make up for the delay by going over the speed limit. 

I finally saw a chance to get off the main road and stop at a gasstation. I needed to fill up the tank. get some caffeine in me but most of all reassure my family and Griff. Griff had texted me already but I texted Grandpa first. 

“I am okay there has been an accident I was not involved but stuck in 

traffic it will be about another hour or so” 

Then I clamped the phone between my shoulder and ear to call Griff as I was filling up the tank. He answered on the first thing, and I felt sick when I heard how worried he was. So while filling up my tank, and getting some snacks and an energydrink I told him about the traffic jam. That I wasn’t involved and would be home in another hour. Telling him he could just go to bed. Of course he refused I know he would, still it felt good he was so concerned about my health my well being that he refused to go to bed before he knew I was home safe and sound.

By the time I did get home I was exhausted, I texted Griff to let him know. His reply was instant. Telling me he missed me but was going to bed now. I had one last drink with Grandma and Grandpa telling them all about my weekend and how I accepted Grillin as my mate. Which made them incredibly happy then I dragged myself to bed. Not bothering to take off Griff’s hoodie or unpack my bag. I heard the chime of another text message but since it couldn’t be Griff I ignored it. I had to be up in a few hours and I desperately needed my sleep.

The next morning I of course overslept, I saw the late text last night was from an unknown number but I didn’t have the time to read it. I only texted Jessa and Griffin and then rushed to get ready, eat something, and then go to work. When it was time for my lunch break I finally could sit down and read the text from the unknown number. It was David. I had 

not blocked him since he never texted me. All I did was delete hist number from my phone so I would never be tempted to text him again.. The irony of it all. now that I was sure I would never feel tempted to text him again he was texting me. 

“Do you ever regret what happened between us Ayla? I was stupid to reject you as my mate and I regret it every single day” 

I scoffed at the obvious lie in the text and didn’t even respond. I just left him on read thinking this was a one–off text in a drunken haze. Or a cruel joke just to mess with me some more? Both wouldn’t work on me because he wasn’t the only one who texted me. So I focussed all my

energy on Griffin not telling him about David’s random text. I would save that conversation for this weekend when we were together. Even if I wasn’t the slightest bit tempted by David. Griffin wouldn’t like it and he deserved to read the few see me when I told him all about it. I just hope with Griff being so protective every once in a while he wouldn’ t lose his shit over this. I would hate for this to cause us more drama. when we are finally in a good place. 

As soon as I left the library I checked my phone. I never used to be like. that but I just knew I had a text message from Griff waiting for me. 

“Hey. Darling about to head into a meeting it is going to be sooo boring and I miss you like crazy. Want to Facetime when I am done around eight?” Was the last text he sent about ten minutes ago. 

Along with a bunch of cute texts about his day–to–day business. Things like him telling me he went out for a coffee. That he was going to help Collin out in finding his role in this pack. As he was still feeling a little afloat. Still, I answered them all, even telling him about what I was about to have for dinner since he asked. Promising him we could. Facetime when he was done 

“I don’t know if knowing I get to see you when this is over makes me feel better or worse about the meeting” He texted back instantly, even if he should have been in the meeting now. 

“Aren’t you in a meeting now?” I replied.
