Chapter 76
Griffin 76
At first, when Dad walked into my office I figured he had even more work for me to do. But as I saw
his face I knew something far more serious was going on. A had just texted me to tell me her
father wanted to talk to her too. The way he had been over text had made her a little nervous
because it was not like him to almost demand she videocalled him. Now with Dading to talk
with me while being so worried, I wondered if something was going on that affected us both.
“Son, can I have a seat there is something important I need to discuss with you” Dad started one
hand resting on the back of the chair opposite mine. And separated by my mahogany desk.
I smiled as I remembered A telling me my desk was a cliche. But this wasn’t the time to
daydream about my beautiful mate.
“Please, have a seat you don’t have to ask,” I told Dad focussing on him and what he was about to
tell me instead.
Dad would always ask me if he could sit down when he entered my office. Even if he was the King
and my father. It was his castle, it always made me feel respected when he did even when he didn’t
have to. Especially since he didn’t have to he just chose to give me this much respect.
“Son, Alpha Phillip and Luna Jenna from the BloodMoon pack have died during a car crash and
they died on impact.” Dad let the heaviness of his words linger in the air as he looked at me.
Two rtively young werewolves dying in a car crash was practically impossible. I have seen the
roads near the BloodMoon pack and none of them seemed dangerous enough to warrant such a
terrible ident.

Suspicions aside this made David the Alpha, I was all too aware of what this would mean for us as
a pack. I have beaten the man half to death because he wanted his former mate back. My second
chance mate, even if I didn’t see her like that I was sure he did.
“I get what you are afraid of, but if he let us know, maybe he isn’t nning on going back on the
peace treaty,” I told Dad trying to reassure both him and myself
“That’s the thing, Griffin, he did not tell us he still hasn’t. Your parents-inw happened to be
traveling to the White Oak pack when the ident happened. Some of the pack members
demanded A’s mother back because she was the only pack doctor. That is how Alpha Cedric
knew and he was the one to reach out to me.” Dad tells me making me feel ufortable.
If David is this hellbent on being with A or just getting revenge this would mean we would have a
war on our hands. And him not telling us that his parents died as he should have could be an
indication he is plotting something. On the other hand, he could still be a little overwhelmed with
grief. Losing both your parents to a freak ident must be earth-shattering. And no matter how
much I hate him for it, he was clearly still struggling to get over the fact that he lost A. As far as I
know, he has a little sister now.
Dad agrees with me that we shouldn’t jump to conclusions too soon. But like me, he feels this could
be leading up to something bad and we should definitely prepare. Just to be sure that if it is a war
he wants we can stop things before they get too bad.
The minute Dad leaves my office to tell Mom about our ns and feel certain about the decisions
we made. A calls me since Dad let me know her parents are at the Cresent Moon pack now to
bring some gifts to Kate and Tim because they will visit the White Oak pack tomorrow. He also told
me that with David being the Alpha of the Blood Moon pack now and the threat of war being so real.

decided to leave the BloodMoon pack behind. That is how Alpha Cedric knew, they had to ask him if
they could officially move in with them.
Of course, Alpha Cedric epted his family back into his pack. Knowing full well that the pack
would ept them. The moment Alpha Phillip died the packbond got severed. Usually, the new
Alpha reconnects the packbond and everything will go on as usual. But with the Hemming’s no
longer blindly loyal to the BloodMoon pack,
especially not David, and with them not being on the pack ground they had the strength to refuse
this new packbond.
After discussing what both A and I feel is going to happen now, and after her telling me she still
feels sorry for the Birches including David. I ask her how she feels about her parents and brother
effectively running away from their home. They didn’t pack all of their stuff, and it would be a long
time if any before they would be able to get it back.
“I feel guilty again Griffin, and I am worried for them but in the end, I know they are better off like this
and we just need to make it work as a family,” She tells me and she is right.
The Hemmings will have the full support of the royal family too. And not just because they are family
now. Even if it had been someone else’ s family, I would have supported them too. As I know my
parents would have because as a parent it is never right to see your children get bullied and
abused. After all, the Alpha refuses to acknowledge their pain and suffering. After reassuring her a
bit more and after talking about small things, we ended the call.
Amazingly enough even during this sh it storm that seems to be brewing I fall asleep quickly.
Because when I fall asleep in the bed that now seems to permanently smell like lcs all I can think
of is being able to hold A in my arms again tomorrow.

The next morning I wake up at the cr ack of dawn. I need to get a lot done and I told A I would
make her a nice home-cooked meal on impulse yesterday. It felt good but it did mean a lot of extra
work. And I needed to ask Milo if I could borrow one of his slow cookers. Since I decided to make
gosh; a Hungarian beef, bell pepper, and tomato stew. Which I knew she would love. Milo would
start at six to make breakfast for the packmembers. I wanted to be able to ask him about to slow
cooker first thing in the morning. So I got up at five, got a coffee and a bowl of cereals, before taking
a shower getting dressed, and walking over to the castle’s kitchen.
“Hi, Milo I wanted to surprise my mate, would you mind if I borrowed one of your slow cookers?” I
asked him as he looked up at me, Milo wasn’t used to me being in the kitchen this early,
“Of course, Prince Griffin it would be my pleasure what are you making the Princess?” It wasn’t
umon amongst wolves to refer to a high-ranking pack member’s mate by their future title. Still,
Milo doing so surprised me.
As it was a sign of respect and eptance, it warmed my heart though. It was weird he was so sure
she would like the gosh though because as far as I know, they hadn’t talked much.
“Please, make sure you and the Princess join the pack breakfast on Sunday. I n on making her
favorite chicken and waffles. Suddenly I remembered howst weekend after breakfast A walked
up to him their entire conversation could not have been more than five minutes. But clearly, she still
had won him over, and somehow told him about her favorite breakfast. I wasn’t about to question it
though. The same goes for the manager of the little convenience store on pack ground, as soon as I
tell her it is for my mate she smiles at me and tells me she hopes she gets another chance to talk to
A tomorrow. Somehow in just one weekend, my amazing mate seems to have won over most of
our pack, and I cannot wait to tell her tonight.
