The Prince’s Unwilling mate

Chapter 101

101 Ayla David never cto the cellar or dungeon. So after eating the pizza and drinking sof the cans of soda, I found. I started looking around, hoping to find clues to where I was exactly. And hoping to find a way out or to find means of escape. Maybe even a weapon of ssort, but the dungeon was set up like a motel room. With a simple empty kitchenette, a bathroom with a toilet, and a shower without a mirror. The bedroom with the cheap dresser and cheap bed did hold more surprises. The only sunlight filtering in was coming from skind of sunroof I could never reach. Somehow there was electricity but I had no idea how. It most likely was a generator but I did not see one. Having learned there was no way out, I decided to rest more. There was no telling when David would chere, and I needed to be ready. But sleep did not findeasily. I had seen it was at least a new day. That meant tonight I should have fallen asleep in Griffin’s arms. Exhausted from finally being marked. Yet I wasn’t now I was falling asleep in a damp cellar. There was no way Griffin knew where I was, depending on what information he had he might not even know I was kidnapped. My heart clenched when I realized he had probably been nervous that whole evening. Waiting for me to finally text him, and then I never did. For sweird reason knowing he must be panicking and probably feeling guilty. Hurtmore than the hopelessness of being kidnapped by someb*dy as deranged as David. The tears that I had been able to hold back until this very moment now escaped. As I lay down on the bed, on my side hugging my knees to my chest I just sobbed. I sobbed so much that my eyes burned, my throat burned 0.00% O 08:14 101 Ayla

That I was so scared for the other shoe to drop that I didn’t dare to let him in. He would no doubt tellthere was nothing to make up. That he understood, because he was so patient with me. So kind and because I still was so scared to have my heart broken again and dying from it. I delayed everything between us. I could have been at his side marked, and training to be the Queen with his mother now. In the end, the man that I trusted for so long, the man that I trusted for most of my life. Was the man that hurta second time, I should have been afraid of him all that time. How he acted the last tI saw him, and what he was doing now so soon after his parents died proved he was deranged, he just stopped hiding it. *** I must have cried myself to sleep because the next thing I know I wake up up from the sound of the door creaking open. David saunters in, a smug grin on his face. He is holding a brown bag that smells like food. Bacon, eggs, sausage, and hash browns. “Morning Baby, I am so sorry I could not be here last night did you sleep well?” He asked like he was my actual mate that got held up in a meeting I didn’t attend. “What the actual f uck is wrong with you? No, I did not sleep well I missed my through mate. Crown Prince Griffin, the wolf who gave you that limp ring any bell?” I snarl Because I refuse to play along with his crazy mind games. He can’t be this deranged and if he is, I will give him his much-needed reality check. Without saying a word he moves into the kitchen. Where he starts plating the food he brought in, in plastic containers. Containers I realize are the packs, so I was right we must be very close to the 23.52% 08:14 101 Ayla 288 Vouchers Blood Moon pack.

“You poor thing you do not know, his pack members kidnapped you. I just rescued you from them. Even with the disruption in our matebond, I could still feel you were in danger. But I guess you never saw the announcement on the website now did you” He smirks. I don’t know what he is talking about, I am sure that it wasn’t the Silver Moon pack that kidnapped me. They would never, I understand that they might not all loveas their future Luna and Queen. But every single wolf in that pack adores Griffin and his parents. So they would never go behind their back like that. “What announcement are you talking about” I ask him because I need to have all the information he has. I need to find out why he kidnapped me, even if I have an idea of what that is. And I need to know what announcement he has seen. So I can see what Griffin knows and the plan of action to get me out of here. David pulls the phone out of his pocket with a shi t-eating grin. Of course, he doesn’t just hand it tothat would be too easy. He just types in something and then he showsthe royal website. The sone mine and Griff’s picture was posted on a few weeks ago to introduceas the new Princess, as Griffin’s mate. The new article was a video of Griffin, captioned mateship ended. Just reading it hurtbut I soon enough noticed he was wearing Dad’s sweater, the one I got him for Father’s Day. Even with the clip still static. Reveling in the hurt look on my face at the first glance David is quick to play the video clip. “My dear subjects, It is with regret that I have to inform you that Ayla Hemmings has chosen to break up with me.” Griffin starts his announcement. 48.95% D 08:14 101 Ayla 288 Vouchers. David pauses the clip addressing“His pack kidnapped you and let him know you chose to be withinstead. And this man your so- called mate is not even giving you the benefit of the doubt”

And to David, it must seem that way, Griffin is sitting there telling the entire kingdom that I left him for David. What David doesn’t notice is that Griff has placed MY copy of Pride and Prejudice in the center of the screen. Whilst he is sipping coffee out of the Mr. Right mug, Jessa gave us when she heard about Griffin always bringingcoffee in bed. I have a matching one saying, Mrs. Always Right. Wearing my dad’s sweater, I know my mate. He didn’t even give up onwhen I gave him every reason to give up on him. No matter what David wrote in the letter, no matter the fact that I didn’t let Griff know I was at the party the night before. We have never been closer and talking more than after my surprise to him. I let Daniël know in a voice memo how nervous but excited I was to finally be marked by Griffin. I know my brother must have let Griffin hear it to reassure him I really wasn’t walking away just like that. Knowing all of that I understand what Griffin is doing, he is luring David into a false sense of security. He understood that I would get to see the clip too so he filled it with little tokens of our love. Showingmy family is with him no doubt to help him find me. “Please, please David I need to see the rest of it” I plead hoping David will think I am desperately hurt knowing my mate just left me. All I want is to see the entire clip to be sure I am not missing any important hints Griffin gives me. He does asking the subjects to not blme for it and to treatkindly. He is going over to the White Oak pack to discuss how this could have happened with the Alpha. And to discuss ssort of settlement. I have to suppress a smile, he is going to the White Oak pack to find out how this could have happened. It won’t be long now before he finds us and breaksfree
