I told Griffin we were going to bed to make a statement to Hannah We both knew we wouldn’t be getting sleep anytime soon. Next up was talking to his parents, we needed to discuss how to welcome the Council of Elders. And of course, they wanted to know how I was feeling. If I had decided on the punishment I wanted to ask for.

“I don’t want her to be killed, especially since she really is pregnant. I don’t want her pup to die because of their parents. She thinks she knows what a good leader is, as far as I am concerned she can manage on her own let her be rogue. I know it affects her pup but her being

too pregnant doesn’t mean she does not have to face the consequences” Not even Griffin knew what I had decided.

Because I wasn’t sure when we walked out of the interrogation room, Isabella’s question forced me to think about what I wanted to do. The words just came out, and it felt like the right decision.

“Aren’t you afraid she is going out to replace David when she is a rogue? Not to mention the fact that she might very well still be a part of his pack?” Rodrick asked.

It wasn’t something that crossed my mind, but he was right. Still, the chances of her replaceing David were slim. Even if she did, she could replace him and leave the country behind like he did as far as I was concerned. The chances of David coming back just to get his chosen mate and his pup out were even smaller. Again if he did it wouldn’t be the worst thing either, he was the country’s number one enemy now. There was no way he would get in and out of the country sight unseen. So that is what I told Griffin and his parents.

I could tell Griffin was worried but they all agreed with me. I knew

Griffin would not want me to go out with b*dyguards for a few more months. Sometimes it was annoying to never be able to be alone anymore. But it was a small price to pay. Both for my safety and his peace of mind. We talked about the technicalities for a bit. We decided to have the kitchen staff on standby to prepare a welcoming lunch. Tomorrow we would let the Council of Elders just decide if they wanted a few hours or even a day to settle in. Or if they would want to start the trial right away. If the latter was the case we would have the kitchen staff make a quick lunch for everyone at the trial.

I was getting tired and I still needed to prepare my statement and write the letter to officially request a punishment. We also needed to let my parents know and ask if they still wanted to come to the trial to support me. With the amount of work I still had to do we said goodbye to Isabella and Roderick and then made our way to our chambers.

“Darling, I texted your parents they are coming over tomorrow and will be here around 10 AM too. I’ll arrange for the plane to pick them up” Griffin was done with his shower and I hadn’t even noticed him walk up behind me until he k*ssed the top of my head.

Nonetheless, I was super grateful he had managed to let my parents know. And had started on transport to get them here. I would never take the jet for granted. But in moments like this the fact that we had the jet made the distance between me and my family feel not as big.

“I love you baby” I said stroking his cheek but without taking my eyes off the letter I had written. It was done I just wanted to read it again, to make sure it was right. That it said everything I wanted to tell the council.

“I love you too Darling, with all that I have and all that I am. Do you want me to help you prepare for tomorrow?” He says still hugging me from behind.

This man is all I could ever want for, he is making this perfect relationship. This dream of a future with my mate I had ever since I was a little girl come true. Making it better than I ever dreamed up myself. And with that he made me so sure of myself. And of the decisions I had made in regard to the trial and Hannah’s punishment. As long as he was with me during the trial I would be happy. I would feel safe and loved and on top of that, he had made sure that my parents would be there too.

I stood up and turned around to face him: “No, but thank you, Griff, as long as you are going to be there with me, I will be fine. Right now I am tired and I just want to fall asleep in your arms”

It was all I needed to say for Griffin to swoop me up in bridal style and carry me to the bed. Where we did exactly what I wanted. We fell asleep all cuddled up.

***

The next morning we woke up early and even with Griffin still at my side I felt the nerves fluttering around in my stomach. Reading me like an open book Griffin takes his hand in mine and k*sses the back of it.

“It will be alright Darling, I am here for you” He tells me.

And he is right so I take a quick shower as I did not have one before we went to bed. Then I dressed in something that was fitting to have breakfast with the rest of the pack. To greet my family in and more importantly to welcome the Council of Elders in. If they wanted me to I could just sl*p on a blazer over the t-shirt and red pencil skirt I was wearing and I could be ready to go to trial in ten minutes. I loved the fact that the dress shirt that Griffin wore on top of his black jeans matched the color of my skirt. He knows how much I love to match our clothes. Seeing him wear something to match me on his own accord. Just to show me his support makes me so happy. It makes me feel loved and supported.

With that support, I take his hand and we make our way to the pack dining room to have our breakfast with the others. For a few blissful moments, the pack breakfast made me forget about all that was waiting- for us today. Of course, every pack member wanted to know how we were doing. Mostly how the heat was, and if we figured I was pregnant or not. It was amusing to discuss all the possibilities. We talked so much that we were still talking by the time it was 10. If it was not for one of the guards letting us know that my parents had just landed as the Council of Elders had arrived we would have missed them both. Now Griffin rushed off to welcome the Council as the guard took me to my parents so that I could welcome them. I would take them to the castle and then I would meet up with Griffin, his parents and the council.
