Chapter 99

Reluctantly I make my way back to the castle, I don’t want toe face to face with the wolves
doubting my mate. Not when I should focus my attention on getting her home. But as a good leader,
I must ensure the pack is behind me. If my parents and I have to go to war with David, they will all
fight with us. That’s how a pack works, but a wolf that’s not certain of the cause we are fighting for.
Is more likely to die, and as leaders, we need to keep our pack safe.
When I reached the edge of the forest I shifted back and got dressed again.
“Griffin, are you okay I am sorry I acted out it’s just my sister” Dani?l had been pacing around at the
forest edge, and his voice broke when he spoke to me.
Somehow it was soothing, my parents and everyone in A’s family were all worried sick. Every
single one of them was deadset on getting her home with me. With us. Of course, I want her home
too, I am sure Dan does too. But they have all sprung into action, and I need a moment. I know I am
supposed to be, this strong brave Crown Prince.
And I am, but there has never been through anything so heartbreaking as losing A. Knowing that
she is out there somewhere most likely thinking about me, missing me. All I needed was a moment
to let go, to let someone know that I was not doing okay. That my heart was aching for my mate.
By the way, Dani?l had screamed at my pack members who do not support A. The fact that he
had just yed an entire private voice message to make a point. Showed me he was not coping
that well either.

“I am as okay as can be, let me speak to my packmembers, and then we can have a drink and talk
in my office okay?” I ask him and he just nods.
As expected the five pack members that are not. supporting us have settled down in the kitchen.
Probably waiting for me because they knew I overheard them and it had caused me to go on a run.
When Dani?l and I enter the kitchen they scramble up.
“Crown Prince Griffin, please know” One of them starts apologizing on behalf of the entire group.
I don’t have the time or the patience to listen to him. They can’t know that I am on the verge of
losing it. But they can surely know that I am heartbroken and that their refusal to believe in their
future Queen hurt me on a personal level.
“Chris, talking to all of you now, takes away time from rescuing my mate. I know you don’t want to
believe that your future Queen would not leave me. But just imagine how you would feel if you knew
Nathalia was hurt and I was stopping you from saving her because I would rather believe she ran
away from you. So sit down and keep your pitiful apologies to yourself” I snap at them and then sit
down without waiting on them.
The awkwardness in the kitchen is now palpable but I honestly no longer can’t be bothered.
“The only reason I am here is to see what your worries are, to see if I can ease them. And if that is
not the case I want to excuse you all from fighting in the uing battles” I tell them
Everyone is baffled by my decision a few of the pack members stammering that they are still a part
of the pack even if they doubt A. I want to scream at them, telling them that as far as I am
concerned they are not. If they cannot trust and believe in their Luna

how can they be a part of the pack? It doesn’t work like that though so instead I just tell them I don’t
want them to die in a war, a fight they do not believe in.
“Crown Prince Griffin, I don’t want to be rude, or disrespectful. But we have all seen her run away
from you that first night. She seemed nice during the pack eventst weekend. But your mateshipMaterial ? N?velDrama.Org.
has been far from normal. How can you be so sure that this time it isn’t her fault” Sarah asks me.
Deep down I know she has a point, I expected not everyb*dy to agree with this for that exact
reason. Because they don’t know me like I do. So that is what I tell them, I tell them they don’t know
her like me. They didn’t listen in to the conversations we had in the dark as we were falling asleep in
each other’s arms. Most of all neither of them knows what she went through before she met me.
One by one the pack members think over what I told them. Some have additional questions. Chris
who was the first to apologize, is thest to speak. And when he does to my surprise he addresses
Dan, not me.
“So she is your sister, I have an older sister too. I know I am one of the people that knows her best.
Simply because we grew up together. How can you be so sure she has not left our Crown Prince for
her ex-mate” He asks him.
“Because as you said, we grew up together, with that ex-mate of hers. I am not going to tell you
exactly what he has done but brother to brother, I wanted to not only kill him for what he has done. I
wanted to kill the she-wolf that abused my sister because of him. The same she- wolf, A now
supposedly wants to be our queen.” His stance is rigid, jaw clenched suppressing his anger.
I am not sure if he is suppressing the anger of thinking about David and Hanah again. Or from the
question Chris just asked. but his

answer did the trick. Chris stands up and shoves his hand toward Daniel. And when Dan takes it,
Chris not only pledges his loyalty to Princess A. He promises Daniel from one brother to another
that he will help keep Dan’s sister safe.
With thest wolf convince I can finally take Dan to my office so we can share a drink. Get our
hands screwed on right again and then take action to go and find A. Or more action because I
want to jump in and travel towards wherever she is right away. I can’t and I set enough in motion so
that we can find out where she could be.
***
We have been sitting in my office in silence both nursing our whisky’s for about ten minutes now.
Both of us were too tired, and too emotional to break the silence. One question is running through
my mind on a loop though. I only heard half of the voice memo and I am dying to hear the rest of it.
“Dan, can I listen to that voice memo?” I eventually ask him.
“Sure,” he tells me before taking his phone out of his pocket and cing it on the desk between us.
“You might one to hear the second tost one too” He states and then he ys the message.
“Hiii, favorite brother do you know what day it is? The day I am finally getting what I wanted for so
long. A love like Mom and Dad have, and I am so happy you found it too. Granted, there was
nothing that could stop me from living with Grif, but it feels good to know you will be there too”
A’s cheery but sleepy voice fills my office.
Like it had so often when I called her in the mornings, especially thest weeks to make up for the
fact I could not give her coffee in bed. Hearing her voice hurts, like I knew it would. But now it mostly
