The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

Before I could answer though Hannah came at me. And oh I wanted to fight back this time.

I let it happen to me, so that David could see that I was the innocent one. Hannah grabbed

my hair, which I had tied up in a ponytail. She used my hair to pull me closer to her and

raised her fist ready to hit me. For a second I wondered how far David would let this get

before he would intervene. Or if he would intervene at all.

But before her fist connected with my face, David stepped between us.

“ENOUGHH, Hannah I do not care for your opinion on Ayla, she is my mate she will be your

Luna. You will respect her” he growled at her as I winked at her.

David couldn’t see but Hannah did and she was fuming, honestly, this was the most

entertainment I had since I got here.

“Is she now David, do you not know what happened yesterday? Did you not feel it?”

Hannah countered David’s anger.

She wasn’t scared or upset just thoroughly annoyed. It was funny they had both rejected

their first mates to be together. They obviously had, the entire pack knew and they had

whispered about Hannah and not me becoming their new Luna. Which was met with

mixed feelings. From what I gathered they started sleeping together from the first second

David rejected me. People bullied me with it, and it used to be heartbreaking. I got over it

and apparently they did too.

Because before David could introduce Hannah as his Luna. Hannah was looking for bigger

and better things in life. She must really get tired of playing my second violin. If she

wasn’t such a vile and vicous bi tch maybe I would have pitied her. Now I just hated her

did mine so we were even in that regard. After all the abuse I never guessed there would

be something she could do to make me hate her more, but she did.

When she was going back and forth between David and waiting to see when Griffin would

reject me. David had started rethinking his choice of rejecting me. Which all led to him

killing his parents and me getting kidnapped. While he was arguing with me like an old

mated couple, hell I felt more like their pup than the mate of either of them.

And like a small pup, I kept quiet, not because I feared them. No, I was right about the fact

that something happened. Hannah seemed eager to remind David who in turn seemed to

be deadset on keeping that information from me. The more he kept it from me the more I

wanted to know. The two of them had entered a screaming match. The second I would so

much as move either one of them if not both would notice me. Blowing my chance of

overhearing whatever happened at the Blood Moon pack.

Hannah said she doubted the chance of me becoming her Luna because of it but that

could be everything. Griffin overtaking the Blood Moon pack could be a reason. The

council interfering with just all about everything could be a wrench in the works. Hell even

me not accepting him would in the end f uck everything up for David.

No matter how many mistakes the Moon Goddess made, because I was sure she was

flawed like all of us. Her making sure that you could only complete the mating process as

both of the partners agreed was some solid thinking. It gave me a sense of safety, it

meant David had to try for me too, which I could use for my benefit. It also meant he could

not mate with me. Because of how strong our matebond had gotten over time I feared

that could be the end of Griffin.

“No, Hannah, not today and that is my final say. I am still your Alpha no matter what

happened and as such you will listen to me.” David must have used his Alpha voice.

because Hannah looked to the floor,

whispered “Yes, Alpha” and she walked away,

David did not speak about what just happened and I was smart enough to keep my mouth

shut too. I was unsure what to do next, I used to think I knew who David was. What he

liked and what he would want me to do. But I learned the hard way that I had no idea who

David Birch really was. And I needed to act exactly how he wanted me to now more than

ever.

“Sit, let’s talk about what just happened,” He said and his tone was

hard to read.

I decided I needed to show my submission, most Alpha’s would not want their Luna to be

submissive to them. David however deemed women to be beneath him. Where with my

true mate I was his equal, David wanted me to be submissive to him. More of a maid than

a mate.

“I am sorry David, now our breakfast got cold, even if it was already lukewarm when

Hannah brought it here. I am so sorry she must have been tired from walking all the way

here. Only for you and her to get into a fight. When I know you are best friends” I stared at

my feet again.

I had come to find out that David liked feeling like I was too scared of him to look him in

the eyes. Now that I knew what to do, now that I had a plan to get out of this I was going

to. Whatever David needed to feel secure and like he was having power over me. I would

do until I could escape.

“She doesn’t have to walk far, she is just a petulant little bit ch, but that is not what is

what is bothering me” He exasperated.

I knew what was bothering him, this entire morning had been a s hit show, and now he

was having a cold breakfast. On top of whatever it was that had happened to the pack. All

I cared about was the fact that I knew more about where we were now. We could just walk

in less time than it took for our breakfast to cool down.

“I wish I could just be with you at your home” I started careful to not mention the pack

even if it was. Or well should be because with what Hannah was talking about I wasn’t

sure about anything anymore.

“Oh is that so, I thought you didn’t love me anymore” Right away the cold, clipped tone

was back when David spoke.

This man had more mood swings than a pregnant she-wolf. It made me need to tread

extra carefully and it was honestly exhausting but I had to deal with it. Stroking his ego

might be a good idea, so I tried a new approach.

I sighed deeply before answering him. “I don’t know anymore David, I used to more than

anything. You know I wanted you to be my mate. And when I smelled it was you it felt like

a dream come through but you rejected me and stopped being my friend. Did you not

know what Hannah and her friends were doing to me?”

He didn’t answer me he was listening to me his arms crossed. I had forgotten he did that

and how much I hated it. Even when we were friends, even back when I was hoping he

would turn out to be my mate.

“Then Griffin found me, because Hannah made me, I needed to get away from the abuse. I

didn’t like him at first, but he was so good to me. Everything you never was, you would

never be. For most of my life, I would have never considered a man who wasn’t like you.

But with how much you hurt me how could I not? I thought I had gotten over you but when

I heard Hannah brag about the two of you having sex without protection I didn’t know

what to feel” I lied through my teeth, when he almost forced himself on to me he told me

he wouldn’t want protection convinced that wolves cannot get pregnant when not mated.

All I could do now was hope he was the same with Hannah, and that, it was the little detail

that would make him believe me. I didn’t even have a plan ready for when he would not

believe me, for when he used protection with Hanah.
