I didn’t know what to tell Griffin, I was so angry with him. Uncle Cedric was telling us how Griffin declared war on the BloodMoon pack. Angry since I had gone to such lengths to prevent the war from happening. And he just sat there staring at me, I don’t think he heard a word that’s being said. Until Uncle Cedric announces he will give us sprivacy

“Please, Darling, don’t reject me” Griffin falls to his knees tears in his

eyes.

It makescry too, because I was ready to tell him I was falling for him this weekend. I planned to discuss moving in and completing the mating process. I was about to give up on this whole idea of going slow. David didn’t mean to but he mademore sure of my relationship with Griffin. He proved tothat thanking it slow didn’t offer any guarantees. I knew David for most of my life, yet he betrayed me the second he found out we were mates. Seeing this side of Griffin madechange my mind, what if this was going too fast? What if after years of being together, Griffin would betraytoo?

“Please talk to me, Darling” Griffin was still on his knees on the verge

tears.

you right now and we need to listen to Uncle Cedric now. You caused a war and possibly killed a man. There are more important issues than our relationship now” There was so much more I wanted to tell him but I didn’t lie I could not look at him right now.

Being angry at someone who looks so guilty, and so heartbroken is hard to do. With nothing else to do I mindlink Grandpa and Uncle Cedric to cback. Seeingmindlink Griffin gets up and sits back down in the chair with a sigh. This the listens to Uncle Cedric and Grandpa. They want to prevent a war because that always means losses on either side. Hell, it is the reason I tried so hard to hide my hurt, hide the abuse. Thinking about the fact that the man I finally started trusting, I finally let myself feel something for just ruined everything still makesso angry. Angry and disappointed in both myself and Griffin. All these emotions. raging inside ofmake it hard to concentrate on the conversation happening now. After I scolded Griffin for needing to pay attention.

“You are always welcin my pack Prince Griffin, but I would like to know why you were here unannounced. I am going to ask David the sthing?” Uncle Cedric asked.

He didn’t need to ask David though, he toldhe stated it clearly. Several pack members overheard it too. David was here to winback, to disrespect my matebond with Griffin. To forceto bechis chosen mate, to make up for the fact that he had rejectedas his fated mate in the first place. He was trespassing, so spunishment and spunches were warranted. Griffin just went too far with beating him. to an inch of his life.

“I wanted to do something sweet for Ayla, in the car are groceries for a BBQ from visiting your brother’s hit seemed like that is a big thing. within your family. Seeing as I am her mate I figured I would be welcome. We could all travel to Kate’s new pack with the royal airplane after. Or at least that was the plan” Griffin stares at his hands as he explains the reason for his visit.

It was sweet, and if he had not tried to kill David it would have been a wonderful surprise.

“Okay, so you had a legitimate reason to be on our background. That only leaves us with the reason why you attacked David and so violently. at that. Why not let the pack handle it” Grandpa asked, he was no longer the Alpha but he would still get involved with things like this. He had a great reputation too, back in his day Grandma and he stopped an army of rogue wolves that were trying to take over packs, to claim the background as theirs. It made most wolves happy to have his insight and involvement. Uncle Cedric didn’t mind it either mostly because Grandpa. would never be overbearing, he never tried to be the Alpha.

“It was a mistake, during the entire drive here I felt Ayla’s distress, because of our situation I cannot mindlink her so when I walked up to find David pulling down her top, not letting her go even when she demanded it. I just saw red, I regret it now. I regret hurting Ayla, I regret losing my cool, I regret disrespecting your pack” The sincerity in Griffin‘ s voice hurt me.

Maybe he did not deserve this anger, but why couldn’t he just trust me?

Letdeal with David. Seeing both Grandpa and Uncle Cedric growl and snap at Griffin’s words. Both are clearly upset with David’s behavior.

It didn’t stop Griffin from taking a deep breath and continuing.

“My father warnedthat sAlpha’s grow overprotective when the mating process isn’t completed yet. Or if their mate has been hurt before.” Then he turns to face me

“And I am so sorry I did not tell you, Darling, I did not want to pressure. you into completing the mating process. It was why I snapped to Alpha Rob like that, and to see the one that has hurt you in the past putting his hands all over you” he continued and I could feel the anger radiate of him.

He hated David for what he had done tobut it was more. It must be the overprotectiveness he was speaking about. I wanted to tell him I wasn’t angry at him anymore and that I regretted what he had done but thinking of the night I met Alpha Rob maderealize something else. Alpha Rob had been flirting withand I stopped things from going further by accusing him of treason. King Roderick had later laughed about it tellingI was right to do so. That anyone touching the mate of a member of the royal family, even before their place in the family was cemented by a completed mate ceremony was treason and so punishable by either dead or banning them from all packs forcing them to beca

rogue.

“He is the sas Alpha Rob,” I said struggling to formulate my plans.

“I know Darling, and just like with Alpha Rob I overstepped I let you down, and I…” Griffin swallowed hard, clearly upset even saying out loud how he had disappointed me.

“No that’s not it, he is the sas in he committed treason, and he entered another pack’s ground without an invitation. Griffin as my mate has a standing invitation and saw David commit treason by ripping his clothes off” I told the others and they were quick to catch on.

“Alpha Phillipe will want to do everything to make sure word about that doesn’t cout”

Uncle Cedric wasted no tin calling Alpha Phillipe telling him how his son had trespassed only to stalk the future Queen. How he gropedand tried to pull my top down, pointing out how several pack members. were witnesses to the whole ordeal.

“Crown Prince Griffin regrets fighting your son, and as a show of that regret, he is willing to drop the charges for treason. Since the Crown Prince is my family now, his future Luna he askedto drop the trespassing charges. This means your son will be released as soon as he has recovered enough. Unless you want to go public with all of this, your have the right to wage war on us. But it will mean the very public execution of your son” Uncle Cedric finished the conversation with Alpha Phillipe.
