The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

“I don’t care how sorry you are, I need that desk today” I shout at the furniture store employee who just called me with the bad
news.
Gerald walks in raising an eyebrow, I know why this isn’t like me. I’m not someone who easily gets mad over little things. I can
have a bit of temper when it’s about Ayla. But nothing like this.
“Listen, I’m sorry my fiancee is moving in with me tomorrow, and having the desk here makes the difference between a
completed surprise or a half-empty office.” I sigh rubbing my temple with my free hand.
Obviously happy he is not dealing with a screaming lu natic anymore. The salesperson offers to send me pictures of desks they
can deliver today that look similar enough. It’s not what I wanted but getting something delivered to a castle in the middle of a
pack of werewolves is hard enough as it is. I need to ask the entire pack not to shift. Luckily enough Gerald said he would help
me get the desk inside. I could honestly do it on my own but that would raise suspicion with the delivery guys. As it would be too
heavy for a human to carry.
“What’s up with you lately are you this stressed about Ayla moving in? I thought things between you were going great?” Gerald
asks the second I hang up the phone.
He is right I have been anxious all week since the moment Ayla and her family drove off to the White Oak pack. I am not nervous
about Ayla moving in with me it is a dream come true. I love her with all that I have and I can’t imagine nothing better than to
wake up to her every morning only to fall asleep to her every night. Still, something is setting me on edge. The only conclusion I
can draw on what that might

be are the chances of Ayla living here with me.
It makes me feel guilty because just like Gerald said, I should be over the moon with her moving in with me. And things between
us have been great, we’ve been texting non-stop. She has sent me every cup of coffee she had like a countdown. Letting me
know she looked forward to our morning coffees in bed. Today was the first day we had been texting a bit less. Me with wanting
to have my work settled and her office in order before she moved in. Her because she was busy packing the last things. And
getting ready for her farewell party tonight.

So that was nothing to worry about either, and after he had seen how stressed out I was Dad had spilled the surprise. Telling me
he gave me so much extra work over the past 2 weeks because he needed to keep me distracted from the party prep. And how I
would have the first weeks off to take Ayla on a mate-moon.

***
Maybe that was what was causing me to stress out so much. We still hadn’t talked about completing the mating process. A
mate-moon would make much more sense if we had actually completed the process but I still didn’t want to rush her. On the
other hand, I had a ring custom-made for her. And if we would complete the mating process before or during the mate-moon. I
would propose to her, I was sure I wanted to marry her. Still, it would be weird to propose before I finally wore her name on my
collarbone.
“I don’t know I guess I am just a little anxious about not having a timeline for everything between us” I shrug.
It’s not like I can explain I have the feeling something bad is going to happen. Since Ayla and I haven’t completed the mating
process yet it is very unlikely I can sense her anxiety. Even if I could, that couldn’t be the reason. The only time where I had
really felt calm were the times I was speaking with her. No matter if it was just over the phone or if we

were FaceTiming
Not wanting to dwell on the fact that I have been feeling miserable all week, I agree with Gerald’s suggestion that it might just be
because I am missing her. And I asked him to help me look at the available desks. He mindlinks Jessa to come over so she can
take a look at the desks her best friend would like the most. Honestly, I suspected Ayla to ask Jessa as her Beta, or Gemma at
the very least.

So I was surprised to hear she needed to find a Gemma since Krystel had agreed to become her Beta. Until she told me Jessa
wanted to be a housewife. And a stay-at-home mom for future pups. Now she came in because her mate asked her to with a
packed lunch for all three of us. I smiled because at that moment I realized Ayla was right, Jessa would not have refused to be
her Beta of Gemma. She would never refuse Ayla anything but it wouldn’t have made her happy.
That’s just who Ayla is though, she would never ask someone to give something up for her. And she is very intuitive. Suddenly
it’s like there is a voice in the back of my head telling me everything will be okay because she is that intuitive. It’s not Conan
telling me, I know his voice it’s more like my subconscious is telling me she will be okay.
“I keep feeling like something bad is going to happen, I fear it has something to do with Ayla,” I tell Gerald.
“It’s probably the Alpha in you wanting your mate to be closer. Not to blame Ayla but it took way longer than normal for you guys
to take the steps mates make. And now that you are so close to the finish line...” He tells me in response and it does make
sense.
After all a lot of behaviors and feelings I never had before got triggered after being mated to Ayla. More so because it took so
long just like Gerald said. It reassures me to a certain degree.

“Besides Ayla is doing fine, she is a bit nervous too the other day we

were on the phone she felt like she was being followed. She wasn’t but she normally isn’t spo oked like that” Jessa chimes in
and she is right
With that settled even if my nerves still aren’t I call the furniture shop the order the desk Ayla would like the best. I spend the time
waiting on the delivery guy to get some more work done and texting with Ayla. Who just like Jessa said seems to be happy and
carefree. She is getting tired from all the packing though. It makes me feel guilty I couldn’t join her but she has some friends and

family members helping her.
That is another thing I have to keep in mind, it’s not like when she was with the Blood Moon pack anymore. She lives with her
family now in a pack that loves her. A pack that wants her to be with me because I am her mate, and they see how happy I make
her. How happy we make each other. But a pack that will miss her when she does leave the pack. They are planning a party to
give her a proper goodbye. I might not be able to protect her right now, but not only is she smart and strong enough to help
herself. She is also surrounded by wolves who would always have her back.
I remember the day David tried to hurt her, they were cautious about not starting a war. But they all stayed close, by the time
arrived they were all ready to attack the second they needed to. Half of them were ready to shift. Come to think of it the fact we
still not had heard from David about his parent’s death made me more anxious too. By now everyone was certain he was about
to plan something. We were all facing the reality that we could very well soon be going to war. I need my mate, my Luna, and my
Queen here. To help me lead the pack through this war, I need her here for my own sanity.
***
Three hours later, the desk finally arrived and Gerald had helped me put it together. I had to admit even if it wasn’t my first choice
I did well. We did well and I was sure Ayla would love it. So I closed the door and put one of those door bows on it feeling proud
of myself.

“Are you sure that’s going to last for two whole days?” Gerald doubted
me.
“Yes, because I made it very clear no one but Ayla is allowed to touch it, and you know the pack will listen to me. Most of them
love Ayla already.” I answered.
And to my joy, the only thing Gerald said before going home with Jessa was “That they do”
