The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

006 Ayla James escortedto the ballroom, as his mate and husband Theo escorted Jessa to the ballroom. There must be over a hundred she-wolves here. How is the Crown Prince supposed to choose between all of us? There is no way he is going to be able to see all of us let alone speak with us. One of the many reasons | do not want a chosen mate. Look at the Prince now. He is supposed to announce his chosen mate today. Out of all the she- wolves here, but as of yet he doesn’t know any of us personally. He doesn’t even know why we do not have a mate yet. What if he steals another wolf's mate? Or what if he likes Hannah. Would he know she has got her first mate killed by rejecting him because she is a power-hungry hussy? Just as | was about to ask Jessa whether we had to disclose why we hadn’t had a mate yet, | saw her face twist into something. Confusion; followed by happiness. Following her gaze, | saw she was staring at the guy who stopped Hannah and her minions from attacking me. He was standing next to the Prince and seemed to be a high-ranking wolf. At first, that madechuckle. Hannah would be so embarrassed knowing she had shown her true colors to someone close to the royal family, someone of high-ranking. Jessa looked smitten, the face of the wolf who found her mate but | remember that wolf Dylan or something toldhe was happily mated.

Suddenly the man on the other side of the prince walked up to us in big strides. | breathed a sigh of relief. This made far more sense the mark on Dylan’s nwas beautiful and intricate indicating it wasn’t a chosen 0.00% [e] 0 12:01 006 Ayla 285 Vouchers mate but a fated mate. Maybe | was just too worried, now that | lost the absolute fate of fated mates instantly loving each other.

“Hi, my nis Gerald, and you're my mate. Wow, you're breathtaking. | mean. | am sure you are kind too, but euhm...” Theo giggled and it was obvious that this Gerald guy was a nervous wreck. Jessa introduced herself. She wasn’t nervous but she seemed just as awestruck. It turned out that Gerald would be the Crown Prince's Gemma. He now works as an assistant to the Crown Prince as he has more work than a regular Alpha to be like David has.

“Does that mean that guy Dylan is working directly for the Prince, too?” | asked, hoping to find out just how bad Hannah messed up.

“Dylan? You mean Dillion, the one next to Prince Griffin?” Gerald ® askedwithout taking his eyes off Jessa.

And when | looked up to see if | indeed meant Dillion, it happened. I. was hit by a smell that was even better than the smell when | found out David was my mate.

| smelt cedarwood, cinnamon, and citrus. To my absolute horror, it was the Crown Prince himself who smelt like that. Willow was going crazy, howling out for our mate. But it could not be. We found our mate he rejected us, humiliated us. My fated mate didn’t pass away, so it was not like | was getting a second chance mate. Everything that happened next 26.05% 12:01 006 Ayla seemed to be happening in slow motion.

My heart was pounding, blood rushing so hard that | could not hear what the others were talking. Only one thing was going through my mind right now. | was going to be rejected for a second time.

The Moon Goddess did make mistakes and with me, she kept messing up. | wondered if it hurt just as bad when you got rejected a second time. Even if it was not truly my fated mate, because that couldn't be. | had one but he gave up on me. He gave up on the girl unworthy to be a Luna let alone the Luna of all Luna's.

Attracting everyone's attention the Prince strode over to me. With event more purpose in his steps than Gerald had in his. Even the King and Queen were looking up to see what was happening. From a distance, | heard Jessa say something about our wish coming through. Her voice was far away and | didn’t really understand what she was talking about now. | just didn’t want the humiliation of being rejected out in public again.

With nothing else to do, I started running. Running like my life depends. on it. Running as fast as these idiotic heels could carry me. Guards were about to close in on me, to stopfrom running away. Panic settled 48 28% [e] 0 12:01 006 Ayla 1288 (Vouchers into my chest. There was no way | could outrun the entire royal army. There were even sattendants that started to make their way to me. No doubt trying to get into the Prince’s good book.

“Let her go. Nobody stop her! Nobody touch her!” A deep voice boomed. through the ballroom.

The voice itself was soothing, but the words that were signalling he didn’t mindrunning. The words proving that he didn’t want to meetas his mate. Hurt me, like a stab to the heart but even with this pain I could not stop running. There was no way | could keep outrunning him, | knew that. My plan was to run to the beautiful fountain | saw on the royal grounds. At least this would give us sprivacy. That way | wouldn't get rejected in public again. Even if it will be big news amongst werewolves.

Poor Crown Prince Griffin, first his fated mate died when he was only one year old. And then he mistakenly got bound to a useless she-wolf. Making him believe he had to reject his second chance mate who was the runt of the pack. This tit isn’t real, because | won't have a second’ chance mate not as long as David is still alive.

“Please stop. | just want to talk.” The sbooming voice called after 1. me.

“I just want to talk” were the exact swords David used to reject me. We were still far too close to the castle with everyone walking outside to get a good view of what was happening. Jessa tried to calmdown and tried to getto stop throughout our mindlink. If | wasn’t this 71.62% 12:01 006 Ayla #288 Vouchers winded from being panicked and running around in high heels, | would have reassured her about where | was going. Now all | could do was focus on the fountain that was getting closer and closer with every step | took.
