Chapter 125


    125 Griffin


    As I was getting dressed to have dinner with Rob, Marianne, and their kids, I felt I was getting out of


    breath. The sensation of hands wrapping around my throat as I was all alone in the room, was


    indication to why I was feeling this way. Somebody was choking A again. This time it was all my


    fault, he must beshing out at A because he sensed how close we were.


    Or they because for all I know, the about ten pack members that have gone missing ever since


    David had to. Are all living with A in some sort of cult-like new pack. This time, unlike thest


    time I felt A getting choked, I could not shake the feeling of being weak. It was as if my mussels


    were trembling underneath my skin. My legs felt heavy and jelly-like.


    I wondered what was happening to A to make her feel like this. And if this was even because of


    what she was feeling. There is always a different edge to the pain you feel when it is your mate.


    They had taught me so during my education. Sadly enough, I had been well aware of the truth


    behind that statement. Having felt A’s hurt and pain so much the past few weeks. And this feeling


    weak was different, it felt like I wasing down with a fever.


    But werewolves like I hardly get sick, and if we do, we are quick to recover. Meaning that either way


    I had no time to think about what it meant. It would not help A, and learning what Lizzy had to say


    could be the hint we needed to find A. If it was me getting down with some kind of sickness I


    would be all better in about two days. So that would mean I could just push through without getting


    any more. dying in finding my mate..


    Walking over to the cabin Rob and his family in took me longer than it

    should have. My legs felt like they were filled with lead. I was determined not to let my hosts know


    though. They already seemed so jumpy around me. I knew that inviting me into their home, to cook


    for me. And to tell me something they had new before and could turn out to be essential in finding


    A. Was already scary enough for them, they didn’t have to worry about how I was feeling. And if


    it had anything to do with them and the food that they made me. Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    Another young girl opens the door when I finally arrive, she must be Lizzy’s younger sister. She is


    absolutely trembling.


    “Hi, sweetheart I am sorry I am a littlete I got held up, can I know your name?” I try to keep the


    tremble from my voice and sound as gentle and sure as I can manage to.


    After a bit of hesitation, she takes my outstretched hand in hers and nods.


    “Yes of course I am, Jane” she stutters shaking my hand.


    “That’s funny, one of A’s favorite books is Pride and Prejudice do you know the names of the


    sisters in that book?” I ask her, wanting to have a bit of small talk


    to put her at ease.


    Suddenly the hallway fills with Rob’s deep chuckle out of all of his family members he seems the


    one who is most at ease in my presence.


    “Go on tell him Jane” he prompts his youngest daughter.


    “It’s mom’s favorite too so she named us after them” she now giggles.


    And her giggling is a fast improvement from her trembling and stuttering. So I smile and chat a little


    about books and how much A loves to read. All while sitting down at the table.


    “It is nothing special, just mac and cheese, green beans, mash, and


    comfort


    foods,


    I’m still feeling weak and shaky but thefort food is helping. It is the first time in days I have an


    actual appetite. Part of it is because this dinner is supposed to help me find A quicker and with


    that I do not feel as guilty to be eating when she is most likely going hungry.


    “First of Prince Griffin, I am so terribly sorry for not telling you I was so scared. I told Dad when he


    came home telling me how kind you are. I wanted to tell you but I was still scared that you would get


    mad at me for waiting so long to tell you. Dad promised me you wouldn’t though” Lizzy swallowed


    looking at her father hopefully.


    Rob nodded, encouraging his daughter to continue. But she was still scared, so I decided to


    reassure her a little bit myself.


    “Listen, Lizzy, you are almost an adult wolf so I feel like I can tell you. this. Leaders should make the


    other wolves trust them. You not being able to trust me is all on Alpha Philip and his family. I am just


    happy that I could show your father he could trust me. And I would never make a father break his


    promise to his daughter so you can just tell me” I exined, causing her to bite her lip and not with


    determination.


    “Okay, well you see Ka’s younger sister Suzanne was my best friend, or maybe she still is.


    Ka’s family agreed with the Birches and have followed Alpha David to the new pack. Suzanne


    never wanted to, sheined to me about it. The Alphamand stopped us from talking about


    things like this to wolves outside our pack” As Lizzy was talking to me, I was wrecking my brain to


    remember who Ka was, but I couldn’t.


    “Hannah had always wanted to be the Luna, she is so in love with David that it’s pretty


    embarrassing.” Lizzy rolled her eyes, finally showing she was a teenage girl.

    A had told me as much, though, that Hannah, Ka, Charlotte, and Taclyn bullied her for being


    so close to David. When Hannah had. hoped they would be fated mates. Suddenly it urred to


    me that wast the Ka, Lizzy was talking about now. So with some effort, I focused. back on what


    Lizzy was telling me.


    “I would hate to have to live underground too, that is why I remembered it. Maybe Suzanne was


    making matters worse than they were. And maybe they changed their ns but well I figured


    maybe it would help you to know she might very well be kept underground?” While telling me what


    she knew, Lizzy had gotten less sacred, which I was happy about.


    Because the fact that A might be living underground was upsetting. Still, it was new information


    and something we could look into. It could very well exin why I felt so close to her in the woods,


    without being able to pinpoint the exact direction it wasing from.


    “Thank you, Lizzy, that has been extremely useful, and of course thank you for being brave enough


    to do the right thing. If there ever is something I can help you with, be sure to let me know, and I will


    do what I can” I promised the young girl, something shed behind her face, but she didn’t answer


    me.


    The rest of the night I spent eating, three hourster I made my way back to the pack house, ready


    to copse in my bed and hopefully wake up feeling better.


    I just turned the corner, blocking Rob’s home from my view, when I heard someone call out for me.


    “Please, Prince Griffin, wait for me” I recognized the voice as Lizzy’s. Maybe she had remembered


    something more, so I stopped in my tracks, waiting for her.


    “I couldn’t ask you this with my parents here, but your Beta to be

    Dillion, he visited the pack before he mentioned, how his mate is a man is that true?” She asked if


    same-sex rtionships weremonly epted among werewolves.


    After all, if the Moon Goddess blesses wolves with same-sex mates who are we to argue, but I


    knew some Alphas still thought they knew better and did not ept it.


    “Yes, he has, Colin is an amazing mate to my best friend why?” I asked in return but she just ran off


    crying leaving me utterly confused. And hopeful that one day she would tell me what this was all


    about.


    A part of me was worried that she was against same-sex mates, and would now cause me trouble


    for epting it. But she had seemed like such a sweet and kind girl that I pushed those thoughts


    away if only to make me feel better.
