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

117 Griffin 

“You look like you found something?” Jay did not beat around the bush as he led me into the Alpha’s office. 

For a moment, I was taken aback by how much it had changed since the last time I was here. David had kept the office like his dad had before him. Modern, sleek, and cold. Jay had made the office his own, it was. warm and homely, and I could recognize all the pictures from their home now adorning the walls in his office. Which included the pictures of Ayla and seeing her smiling looking in the camera. Happy and carefree, surrounded by her family, felt like a punch to the gut. Making me wonder if I would ever be able to think about her without feeling like this. But I shook those thoughts from my mind as soon as they came. I would, because soon she would be back with me where she belonged. 

“Your daughter is a smart woman, she left me a message,” I told Jay and Tessie as I showed them the picture. 

“Oh, that is the one she wanted to print out to hang in your guy’s living room.” Tessie’s voice trembled. 

“And they will my love, we just need the plan to find her right, Griffin?” Jay pleaded with me, desperate to cheer up his mate. 

I couldn’t refuse that, I know I would have said anything even remotely

true if it meant cheering up Ayla. Forcing a smile I hoped seemed real enough, I looked up at the two of them. 

“Yes, I’m here to see if we can come up with a plan together, you know this area so much better than I do. And Tessie, can you prepare a first aid kit?” I asked Tessie because she was so much like her daughter.. 

If they were worrying, keeping them active helped. I was the same, I needed to feel like I was helping. Like I was actually doing something to improve the situation, too. She got up right away to make the first aid kit I requested. As soon as the door closed, Jay thanked me. 

“But you’re actually here to come up with a plan to get my baby back, right?” He asked me. 

Since I was, we discussed what the best approach was for hours. In the end, we figured we would make ten groups. Eight started on the outer edge. In all four cardinal and four intercardial directions. Two groups. would run to the spot where I found the photo. I had 19 wolves with me when I found it, Each group would have two of the wolves that knew to find the direction of the photo. More so because I claimed a tree near the spot. All members of my pack should be able to find it now. It was a risk as it was a tree David and Ayla clearly passed and if he smelled I claimed it. He could be tipped about me being close, finding Ayla was crucial though. And it was highly unlikely that he would be out a lot. with her. And if he would be, he would probably notice a hundred wolves patrolling through the forest.

The leaders would be each other’s equals. This way, everyone could reach each other using the mindlink. And it would make the BloodMoon wolves who were a bit hesitant about the Silver Moon pack feel safer. The same would be true for the few Silver Moon wolves who did not trust BloodMoon pack 

members, because of what some of t 

members, because of what some of them had done to their Luna and Queen–to–be. 

“We should go patrol as soon as it is daylight, there is no time to waste. But we need to be sure we are able to find things if we are out in the woods.” I suggested, and Jay once again agreed with me. 

Normally when two Alphas get along like we do, when two Alphas are family (in–law) the packs would completely trust each other. It was sad the situation with the BloodMoon pack had gotten so out of hand. When all of this was over, I would have to talk to my parents about making sure things wouldn’t get out of control for any other pack like this anymore. I had no idea how we were going to realize that. All I knew was that we needed to, just because maybe in the future it could save someone for the same faith Ayla had.. 

The how and when was a worry for future Griffin. It was two am already, and after being on the road for ten hours. Spending nine of those hours actually driving. Only to go for a run, and find something heartbreaking during that run, had worn present–day Griflin out. 

I needed to be well rested and sharp early in the morning tomorrow. So,

skipping dinner, I just said my goodbyes to Jay and went to the guest room assigned to me. 

As I was walking out, I texted my parents with updates. I would mindlink the pack members with me here about our plans for the morning. Walking and texting was no talent of mine, I figured there wouldn’t be anyone else in the halls right now anyway. Only I was mistaken, so I bumped into a middle–aged wolf, causing me to drop my phone. 

The middle–aged wolf practically flew to the ground to pick up my phone. Handing me my phone, baring is neck to me. A sign of submission, every wolf knew what it was, and this wasn’t the first time. 

someone showed their submission to me. 

Normally though there was a reason to do so, either because something else put me on edge. Showing your neck to an Alpha or Royal wolf when they were pissed off was a smart way to defuse any situation, the other situations where when you had done or asked something offensive or were about to. Not something like this where we both not watching where we were going. 

“I am so sorry Crown Prince Griffin, I was just going home I watched some sports at my best friend’s place. He is the chef so he lives here, normally there isn’t anyone walking down these halls. I lost track of time, and I was running late and didn’t want to worry or upset my mate. She hates it when I am late, but it was no excuse, though I know…” Raising one hand, I stopped the man’s word vomit.

I wondered what the hell kind of rumors circulated about me for this 

healthy adult wolf to fear me like that.
