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

082 Ayla 

As I scrambled up, Roderick’s Alpha’s voice booms through the pack kitchen. 

“Cynthia Wilson and Anna Black, you are dismissed from pack breakfast. You will meet me in the meeting room in an hour“ 

He doesn’t address any other wolf, everyone including Griffin freezes to the spot. The girls scramble away from the pack kitchen, and Sam and what I can only guess are Anna’s parents and brother. All looking regretful and a little scared. 

“Griffin, and Ayla I request both of your presence too” He sounds casual 

and unbothered, 

Still, I feel a little on edge, judging from Griff’s face and the tic in his jaw. He is just as happy about it as I am. For now, I try to just enjoy my favorite breakfast talking to my family. 

** 

Exactly an hour, after Rodrick requested us to meet him in the meeting room. Cynthia and Anna, are already there. They remind me of schoolgirls in the principal’s office. Staring at their feet with a mixture of fear and guilt written all over their faces.

“Thank 

you 

for joining us, Prince Griffin, Princess Ayla please have a seat?” Roderick smiles at us. 

I’m a little unsure about if the fact, that he uses our titles is a good or bad sign. Griffin doesn’t seem to know either he hasn’t let go of my hand since we entered this meeting room. Not even when we took a seat.

“Princess Ayla, I saw some tension between you and the ladies to your left last night. At the time it seemed to be resolved fairly quickly so I let 

1. go. I am sorry it seems that my faith in my pack members was unjustified. Can you tell me what happened?” Rodrick asked me making me feel more and more that it was not us he was upset with. 

Still, it felt a bit awkward and he would probably not be so pleased with my reaction yesterday. Maybe he would believe me over them because Griffin would have my back no matter what happened. But I respected and liked him far too much to lie to him. So after stealing myself, I looked him straight in the eyes as I recounted what happened. How the two of them had sauntered up to us, ignoring me how Cynthia had flirted how I staked my claim on Griffin, how he in term had scolded” both Cynthia and Anna. 

“So what you’re telling me is these two she–wolves committed treason. And instead of putting them to trial you told them you were secure in your mateship with my son. Albeit it somewhat rough around the edges?” He asked one eyebrow quirked up.

To me, it sounded like an oversimplification of what had happened, done to paint me in a better light. But I was not about to argue with him over this. Cynthia and Anna had both turned white as I sheet. All I could get out while awkwardly shrugging was: 

“Yes, I guess so if you want to see it like that” 

“Please, King Roderick, we didn’t know she was part of the royal family yet. She isn’t even marked by him” Cynthia pleaded, Griffin closed his eyes in what I could only describe as pity for her foolishness. 

Confirmed by the fact that Rodrick rose from his chair as he growled. 

“Do you mean to tell me you get to have a say in who I consider my family and when? Because let me be very clear Cynthia the woman to your right is my daughter–in–law, your future Luna, and your future Queen, and from now on out you will respect her as such. Or I will put you to trial, and believe me when I tell you no one not even your father, will speak on your behalf if I do so” 

When I saw her after Rodrick had first mentioned treason I suspected the two couldn’t get more pale. But I just found out that I was very wrong 

about that. 

“Enough with this nonsense, I have tried to give the two of you a fair chance to explain your side of the story but I have heard enough. I hereby rule that you both will be punished for your misdoings against a member of the royal family and for not showing pack spirit. Princess

Ayla is the one to determine the punishment, as she is the one you have wronged the most” He had sat down but he still had a light snarl to his words, and he was still almost frighteningly intimidating. 

Even to me his daughter–in–law whose side he was on. I cannot imagine how scared Cynthia and Anna were now. To me, that was punishment enough. I knew Rodrick would not agree with me so I quickly came up. with a plan. 

“I would like an honest apology, and I think they should not have meals at the pack house until I move in next week. And let me be clear it is not because I do not trust Griffin, because I do. But I do think neither of us deserves the disrespect they have been giving us and there is no way for me to be certain they will actually stop” I said trying to sound calm and confident. 

“Permission to speak father?“Griffin spoke up much more formally than I ever heard him talk to his father. 

Who just nodded at him to continue. 

Griffin did not face Rodrick though he faced Cynthia and Anna. 

“I would like for the two of you to think of the punishment you would have no doubt eagerly administered. What you have done would have warranted for your Princess to put you on trial twice. Yet all she asks for is an apology and a guarantee that you will not have a chance to disrespect us in her absence” He told them
