Ayla 271 283 Vouchers I woke up feeling more refreshed than I ever had. Which was weird since I was not sleeping in mybed. It took me a while to realize why I had slept like a baby. And only because Griffin k*ssed myhead. Telling me how happy he was I finally gave him a chance. But what got to me was him tellingme he would never let me go. I tensed up because I wasn’t sure if I should say something about itor not. It could be just the cute couply things people said. It could also very well be that as an Alphaas the Crown Prince. He was willing to go back on his promise to force me to accept him as mymate. I convinced myself he would never do that he has already made too much of an effort. He hadto feel me stiffen, and so I awkwardly shifted back so I could face him instead of being cuddled up tohim. I brushed the corners of my mouth to try and check I had not drooled on him. It would be theonly thing that was worse than sleeping on him after telling him we couldn’t even spoon. Sleepingon him and drooling on his chest. His rockhard chest, because boy this man was muscular even for a werewolf. I should have saidsomething when he came to bed dressed in just a pair of low-hanging pajama pants. But what was Igoing to say, I pride myself on being independent to the extent I actually want to build a life withouta mate in it. Only to tell my mate he is so good- looking he needs to sleep fully dressed. So I cancontrol my hormones? No, I wasn’t about to. I dressed in a baggy shirt and a pair of sweatpants. Itdidn’t make him reconsider his outfit to sleep in. Come to think of it, it didn’t stop him from keepinghis eyes on me all the time. Like he was drinking in the sight of me. “Are you okay, I am sorry if I went too far. It’s just waking up next to you made me so happy.Especially since I don’t really know when we will see each other again.” He apologized. عددAyla 271299 Wouchers Sh it. I never considered it because the day sorta got away from us. Of course, he came over to tryand work things out between the two of us. And since I had decided to give him a chance he was
bound to want to take the chance and try to see me as often as possible. As much as I was trying toconvince myself I wasn’t feeling anything yet. But I was and I kinda did not want to leave our littlebubble in my Grandparents bedroom. “Maybe we should talk about it then, come up with a plan?” I suggested. Again Griffin’s face split open in a wide grin. If this man was planning on being so charming everyday. I was bound to give in long before the six months were over. That idea scared me to the verycore of my being. I couldn’t get rid of the feeling that something was wrong with me. That David andthe others were right about the fact that I was not suitable to be a Luna. Griffin was cute and all tosay he wanted an equal partner. But he knew nothing about me. And no matter how you spun thestory about me and David. Our paring had been a mistake, if not he wouldn’t have rejected me.Maybe I needed to talk to Lina about this. She had been so helpful about the second chance matething. I was sure she had more information about rejections too. “Ayla, darling, did you hear what I said” Griffin’s voice snapped me back to reality. A reality where I managed to make myself look like a fool in front of my mate. Who I might or mightnot accept. There was no way I could lie to him and answer a question he had asked me withoutknowing what the question was. Especially not with things being a bit rocky between us. As we bothwanted fastly different things at this moment. I admitted to zoning out and luckily enough he justchuckled at me. “I suggested we would only meet on the weekends. It’s a four-hour drive. I can probably manage toget the Fridays off early. But I totally understand that you might not be able to with your new job andall. 25.30% 15:16 Ayta 27 17 344 Vaucher Honestly, I wouldn’t mind being the one to drive up here all the time. Or most of the time but myparents are dying to meet you. They know about our situation so no pressure.” He told me It was fair his family wanted to meet me too. My family had met him, or most of them had and they
all love him. When he explained his younger cousin was about to turn 18 next Sunday. I knew whatwas coming and it did make me feel a bit pressured. It would mean I either go over there, meet hisparents, and attend that party after. Or not see him for two weeks. Something I would be fine withbut it would hurt him. It would also reflect poorly on him. And I had a solid excuse, so I tried not toworry about that too much. “I would have come to you next weekend if I could. But I don’t have a car and I have no means offlying there. Which poses a bit of a problem.” I told him in all honesty, figuring he would bedisappointed but understanding. Seeing him beam at me like I just made him the happiest wolf on earth. Thoroughly confused me.Because for a moment I forgot who he was. Everyone knew the royal family had a private plane.One they did not need very often, especially not when there was a party in their own pack. Grifreplaceidn’t say so but he promised he would make sure I would be there in time. After telling me hewouldn’t be able to pick me up some of his staff members would. I figured out that was the onlything he could mean. With me telling him my lack of a means to get there was the only reasonholding me back from being there. Suddenly I accepted an invitation to the castle. To a royal party, Imight as well agree to see each other every weekend. Committing to giving him a chance to provehimself to me and all that.There was nothing wrong with this conversation. It had been pleasant and lazy which I loved. Stillthe sudden realization of who he was, to the kind of life he led, and my place in it if his wish camethrough. It burst the bubble we were in, not wanting to end this weekend on a 51 64% 15:17 Ayla 2718 288 Veichers sour note. I feigned being hungry and eager to get started with painting. Being the sweetheart hewas Griffin agreed and got dressed quickly. He was about to peck me on the cheek before sl*ppingout so I could dress in private. Things like that happened a lot in the past 24 hours. Times when hewas about to reach out to me. Only to stop himself. Leaving me to wonder how long he would be
willing or able to keep restraining himself from touching his mate. Even with all my doubts and insecurities, I felt it too. That need to reach out to him, to touch him.Just something simple like a hug or holding his hand for a bit would be enough. Unlike me, Griffinwasn’t trying to fight the matebond. So for him, it would no doubt be worse. That need would be somuch more intense for him. That was another thing I needed to push back to the back of my mindthough. Trying not to stress out too much about everything I hurried to get dressed in just a pair ofjeans and a knit sweater my grandmother had made me. To replace out Griffin had been standingoutside of the door all this time to walk to the kitchen with me. Hopefully, Jessa will be able to talk tome tonight when he is home. Hopefully, her being on a mate-moon wouldn’t stop her fromFaceTiming with me. Because I desperately needed someone to vent to and some advice on whatto do. For now, I was just going to make the best of today. I would just consider him a friend todayand treat him as such. After all Uncle Nic would be here too. And what could go wrong with twofriends
