I didn’t know if I regretted giving Griffin a chance or not. Not because we didn’t have fun today. Or
because he proved to not be worthy of that chance. No, it was theplete opposite. He was sweet
funny and attentive. And when he put his arm around me at the IKEA I could feel the matebond spark
between us. Now he offered to help Great Uncle Nic and I to put the bookshelves together. He didn’t
even assume as a short she–wolf I would be unable to help. At first, Iughed when he told me how
Dad had him fix the door he broke. But the fact that Luna Jenna was actively pushing Hannah on him
made me think.
“Griffin,st chance are you sure she isn’t a better fit for you?” I asked him scared he was going to
reconsider.
Because if he kept being as good of a mate as he was now.‘ It would still break my heart if he decided
to leave me. I was aware of how hypocritical it was seeing as I hadn’t decided if I would not leave him.
He took my hands in his and looked me deep in my eyes.
“I already resent the idea of having a chosen mate, so no as long as you are giving me a chance I will
take it. And not waste it on any other she- wolf. That being sad when pushes to shove and you do
not want me as your mate anymore. Forcing me to pick a chosen mate it will never ever be Hannah or
anyone like her. Every Alpha is different as is every

Luna. What I need is an equal partner one that holds the same values. Ganging up on other wolves,
going after someone’s mate. And seeing lesser ranked wolves as lesser beings is all theplete
opposite of my values” He pleads with me.
I can’t help being drawn in by him, his aura, his scent, his eyes. So when he speaks to me again I can’t
do anything else to nod again. He is right I need to give him an honest chance and if he tells me he is
interested in me. I either have to believe him or t–out reject him. I see how happy it makes him and
maybe that’s why I forget to tell him I already mindlinked Uncle Nic who was happy toe over to
help right away. Probably because he is excited to meet my mate. The moment I dropped that
information, I could hear him getting dressed to go out.
My bedroom door bursts open, reminding me of his arrival and that I am toote to tell Griffin he will be
here.
“Wow A, your new mate is a step up from that slime David. This man really is a royal snack” Uncle
Nic bursts out before wrapping me one of his bear hugs.
Only then he turns to a slightly embarrassed Griffin. I know Uncle Nic never meant to. But this serves
as a test to me. I know his Beta had a male mate but Dillion seemed less mboyant than Uncle Nic is.
And not all straight guys can handle that. Griffin however is brightly smiling. after he was a little
shocked for half a minute. Which makes sense as much as I love my Great Uncle he is a bit much. He
still is despite being in histe sixties.

“Hi, my name is Griffin it is nice to meet you. Especially after hearing you tell my breathtaking mate I
am better looking than David” He introduces himself with a cheeky wink. The twough and
immediately go over what we need to do to get the bookshelves set up. First things first we need to get
the IKEA bookshelves and open cabs together and line them up against the wall. Since three
people working on the bookshelves in my fairly small room is a little overkill. So I decided to head out of
the room and make them a few snacks. Getting them some. cold drinks.
Back in the kitchen, I realize I know nothing about Griffin. I don’t know. what he wants to drink. Or what
snacks he likes. It makes me nervous he has done so much for me and now I cannot return the favor.
Grandpa. walks in and he sees the doubt written all over my face. The two of us have always been
close. I could never hide anything from him, so I should tell him all about what is on my mind. And hope
he can give me some solid advice.
“You know of the start between me and your Grandmother. At first, she did not know what mates were.
What she was, so I fell for her faster and harder. That never mattered to me every little thing she did for
me wast amazing. It soothed my soul because it showed me that it wasn’t hopeless” He told me.
Giving me some more practical advice on what to eat and what drinks to take up. He was right Griffin
loves it his eyes light up as he sees me walking back into the room with some cookies, his cookies.
Some chips, beers, and cokes. Telling me to just sit on my bed to guide them and be ready to jump in
when I need to. He is not being as subtle about just wanting me close. But I decided to let this one go. I
just sat on my bed.

sorting the first box of books out so I could start putting them away as soon as the shelves were done. I
kinda liked watching and hearing Griffin and Uncle Nic chat and joke about as they were setting up the
bookshelves. My small room soon felt warm and Griffing was the first to take off his sweater. He was
wearing a tight white shirt under it. I knew it wasn’t fair of me to just oggle but I couldn’t help it either.
Everyone who was attracted to men would say Griffin is a handsome man. I had to cope with the
additional matebond. I don’t think Griffin ever noticed. Uncle Nic did however he made it clear by
shooting me at sassy wink before going back to setting up the bookshelves. I wast surprised at how
quickly they had managed to put together all the bought bookshelves and open cabs. Uncle Nic
suggested he would cut the panels of plywood in the arch shapes I wanted them to be. Griffin and I
would ce the crown molding and then we had to paint it all with primer. Grandma had made it very
clear she did not want me to sleep in my bedroom when there were so many paint fumes hanging in
the air. It was a shame as it meant I had to take the guest bedroom. Leaving no space for Griffing to
sleep. He was wee at the packhouse. It is where all the guests of the pack would sleep. Unless
they were visiting a direct rtive or a close friend. Or in the very rare case where mates would not be
able or willing toplete the mating process. In cases like that the guest would just sleep with the
wolves hosting him.
That would be us now and I knew Griffin would have loved to have breakfast here. Or just a coffee
since I don’t even know if he likes to eat in the morning. Maybe he is one of those guys who wants to
go on a run first I had been thinking about it all while installing the crown molding. And when sanding
down the IKEA cases. There was only one thing I

could do about it. Even if I was sure not everyone was going to like it. After all, I had promised myself
after being rejected for things that werepletely out of my control, that I would no longer decide how
to live my life. Because of the opinions of others and so I did. First pizza though, time had flown by with
making the bookshelves. So we decided just to get something quick. Grandma loves cooking but
cooking for the five of us when we hardly have the time to sit down for a good meal would be unfair.
Griffin seems to fit right in with the family. Then again so did David, I wasn’t the only one who hoped
David would be my mate, So no matter how much it made me smile now it wasn’t a guarantee for the
future. Realizing that made me see just how much I had let my guard down in the past few hours just
because he tried to win me over by spending a whole lot of money on me. What if he thought I was a
gold digger now? Or that he could convince me to be his mate just by showering me with gifts. The
idea alone was suffocating. I didn’t know what to do, but I had to do something about it.
