Tara didn’t need to remind me of what I was lacking. I had no wolf, I didn’t have a good education, and I certainly didn’t have a well-matched background or anything else to bring to a mating. Any pack, let alone a wealthy and powerful pack, wouldn’t have a reason for allowing me to mate into it. Tara possessed both wisdom and beauty. Although she didn’t curse, she could pierce deep into a person’s inferiority-as she’d just done to me with only a few words. My tone was flat as I responded. “Ms. Thorin, whether I want to marry into a wealthy pack or not is a different matter. Yes, you are my superior and the CEO of this company, but you can’t interfere in my private affairs, right?” Tara didn’t expect me to dare to respond to her with anything other than subjugation. Her face darkened. “Of course, I don’t care. I’m just reminding you out of kindness. If you give up such a good job and go for it, don’t regret it and come back to Midwest Packs Corporation to cry.” I didn’t say anything e
When Margaret saw Taya return to the office, she deliberately raised her voice and said caustically, “Some people are shameless. This time, she took down the Sterling pack Alpha. In just one day, she climbed into Alpha Sterling’s bed, and the photos have been spread all over their social media.” When Linda, her colleague, heard this, she jealously looked Taya up and down and said, “She has a good figure, and no one has to answer to another pack regarding how they treat her. Of course, they all like her.” “How good can she be? She must have been fooled. Otherwise, how could she have such a good figure?” sneered Margaret. “Yes, she has been nourished by so many men. She is in good shape, and her skin is very smooth. It seems that thing is beneficial,” chuckled Linda. Margaret stared at Taya, who was walking over and sneered. “The rich have a good time.Guess how she swallowed men’s-” Before she could finish her words, she was splashed with cold water by Taya. Margaret, whose entire body
I took a deep breath, took out my phone, and searched for Jackson’s number. His a*sistant had sent it to me when I booked the room for him yesterday. Jackson answered after three rings. His calm and a*sertive voice came from the other end of the line, and a feeling I couldn’t explain washed over me. “Ms. Palmer, what can I do for you?” How did Jackson know it was me? “I saved your number yesterday,” he said, answering my unspoken question. I got straight to the point, not wanting to put the inevitable off any longer. “Alpha Sterling, Ms. Thorin has asked me to entertain you during your stay in Arcadia on behalf of MPC. Is there anything you would like to see or do?” “Entertain me?” Jackson’s tone sounded like he was surprised. After a few seconds of silence, Jackson seemed to have understood something. He replied, “Actually, I didn’t bring my personal a*sistant.Would you be able to help me do something like serving tea?” Dam n. I’d thought he would refuse-had hoped he would refuse. I
The thought flashed, but he didn’t take it seriously. He casually replied, “It was a stranger.” He put down his mobile phone and left his office to go to the meeting. Although the branch company of the Sterling pack in Arcadia was not as big as Wolverly Capital’s Sterling pack headquarters, it still occupied a full building on East Street. Today, Jackson was holding a general meeting. Dozens of people in professional attire and carrying laptops went upstairs one after another. In a short while, the large conference room was full of people who were waiting on Jackson. His head had better get itself right, and fast. I sat in the reception area outside of the huge conference room. I was a little envious when I saw the group of elites through the gla*s. My plan had been to go to school for design, and then find an internship and work my way up. But at that time, I couldn’t fulfill my dream. I had to find a job that paid a monthly salary right away instead of school and an unpaid internshi
Alpha, it’s time to go.” Jackson was mesmerized by Taya. It was not until Camille coughed softly that Jackson returned to his senses. He nodded and led Taya out of the store. As they were leaving the store, they were seen by Khloe, Preston’s mistress, who was shopping with her friends. She looked at Taya in disbelief. When she saw Taya for the first time, she’d thought there was something beautiful about her. But this time, when Khloe saw Taya, she felt that Taya was even more gorgeous and looked more refined than any shifter or human socialite she’d met. Khloe looked back at the luxury designer store that could only be entered with a VIP card. Only then did she realize that the man Taya had found this time was even richer than Roman. What Taya was wearing must have cost a small fortune. Even Preston wasn’t willing to spend so much money on her.Thinking of this, Khloe found herself getting irritated. They were both selling themselves. Why should Taya get better things than her? Annoy
Alpha Knight.” Ray quickly walked up to Griffon with the other members of the Wilton pack and said respectfully, “I didn’t expect you to attend such a small-scale banquet. Otherwise, I would have waited at the door with my pack elders. Please forgive me for my disrespect.” Griffon replied indifferently, “It doesn’t matter.” He looked around casually. When he didn’t see what he was looking for, he frowned slightly. Preston got out of his car. He’d followed mainly to ask Jackson what he meant. Seeing that Preston was also here, Ray felt even more honored.What kind of good day was this? He had been worried that his daughter would be unable to find a suitable love, but the two brothers of the Knight pack had both come. Although Preston was undisciplined, unprofessional, and a playboy, he was still a Knight. If anyone from the Knight pack would take his daughter as their mate, he would be honored to form a union with them. As for Griffon, he was unconcerned with any of the reasons the Wil
What are you doing here?” the she-wolf asked grumpily. I guessed that she must be Henry’s younger sister, so I wasn’t surprised that Lena was a rrogant. “It’s the bathroom. Of course, I went to the toilet,” I replied indifferently. I didn’t bother to check my tone. I would rather not tolerate people who disrespected me anymore. Between Tara and Margaret, I was done. Of course, my tone, and words pi ssed Lena off even more. “Humph, I think you’re playing hard to get. You’re deliberately hiding so that Jackson will be worried about you. Don’t think that just because you’re Jackson’s female companion, you’ll be able to climb the social ladder and become a Cinderella! “Jackson will be mine!” Lena’s warning made me frown slightly. I was hiding here to avoid Griffon. What did it have to do with Jackson playing hard to get? I didn’t bother to find an excuse to explain it to Lena, who stood in front of me with her hands on her hips and her face red. She didn’t look like she made a very attrac
Before leaving, Griffon issued a warning. “Just because Jackson broke off the mating agreement doesn’t mean that the Sterling pack will allow him to do so. He’ll be my brother–in–law sooner or later. Don’t even think about getting him to fight against the whole pack for you.” After saying that, Griffon turned around and walked to the door. Once he was gone and the door was closed behind him, I heaved a deep sigh of relief. Every time I faced him, my body filled with an indescribable pressure. I wasn’t sure if I was afraid of him or if I was fearful that I wouldn’t be able to control my feelings for him. Fortunately, my impulse had been to lie to him regarding any desire I had for him. Otherwise, who knew how he would have reacted. It could have been anything from disgust to laughter.I collected myself and walked to the sink, turning on the water but only staring down at the stream before turning it off and walking out of the bathroom. As soon as I stepped out, Jackson was there, push
Neil received the item from the owner of the goldsmith shop. He originally wanted to give it to Taya and at the same time, show off. Who knew that Alpha Knight would be here! He had such bad luck! The smile on Neil’s face disappeared. “How dare you!” Neil was disappointed when he saw Griffon. How were they going to have fun now that he was here? The designers, who followed behind Neil, froze when they saw Griffon too. The smiles and excitement immediately faded. They did not even dare to enter the door. They stood at the door, pushing and shoving each other. “Hey Neil, after you…” When Neil saw Griffon, he was extremely humble. He waved his hands desperately, “No, no, the young ones should enter first…” Taya glanced at the designers who were afraid to come in, then at Griffon who exuded a terrifying aura. She saioicd in a low ve, “Why don’t you go out first? I’ll take care of things here first before going to the hospital.” Griffon let go of his balled fists, which were clenched due t
Are you alright?”After Harper finished talking with Preston, she immediately went to the office. She quickly washed up and changed her clothes. When she came out, she overheard Mr. Jenkin’s conversation. He said that Griffon caught Johnny flirting with Taya and that they were fighting downstairs. There were also guns involved. Harper was so frightened that she did not even have time to put on her high heels. She quickly wore her slippers and she rushed down in a hurry with her hair still wet. When Taya heard Harper’s voice, she hurriedly pushed away Griffon, who was about to kiss her, and turned to face Harper who was rushing towards her in a panic. “I’m fine. Be careful, don’t run.” Harper rushed to Taya and quickly examined her just to make sure she was alright. Seeing that she was indeed unharmed, Harper immediately relaxed. “I was scared to death. I thought something happened to you. My heart was literally about to leap out of my chest!” Taya raised her hand and comforted her. “Do
Griffon hugged Taya tightly as he stared deeply at Johnny with cold, deadly eyes. Griffon grabbed Johnny’s wrist hard, almost squeezing it. If he exerted any more strength, Johnny’s wrist would definitely dislocate. Johnny couldn’t struggle and he became irritated. He glared at Griffon and shouted. You are courting death!” After he finished speaking, he raised his other hand and motioned for his bodyguards to come forward. When Taya, who was nestled in Griffon’ arms, saw the group of bodyguards running towards them, her heart started pounding in his chest. “Griffon, you have to go now.” Listening to the conversation between the two, it was obvious that they knew each other and they had grudges. Griffon did not have any bodyguards with him at this time, so he might not be able to take down Johnny and his team of bodyguards sorry, Griffon suddenly lowered his head and gave her a rea*suring look. “Don’t worry.” As soon as he said those words, he lifted his leg and kicked fiercely at the
Harper’s heart trembled as she saw the bodyguards’ hands reaching for the back of their waist once again, but she forced herself to stay calm and began to make up nonsense. “She’s in Aronland with Mr. Yardley. If you want to look for her, go to Aronland…” That’s right, he should go ahead and deal with Amon. Harper wanted to see who would come out on top. Upon hearing this, Johnny’s repressed anger burst out of his dark eyes. “I found out that she had returned from Aronland, and the first person she met up with was you, right here!” The first time he came here, he was actually looking for Harper to ask about Rosalie’s whereabouts. However, he was so furious at the waiter that he couldn’t speak. After adjusting his mood, he revisited the place. However, he never expected that Harper would dare to play dumb. This was simply unbearable! He stood up out of the blue, and his tall and burly figure towered Harper, whose height reached his chest despite being in heels. Stare at Harper. “Ms. Du
Harper smiled coquettishly. “It has nothing to do with you.” Nothing to do with him? Preston had always been a gentleman towards women but at that instant, his face darkened as he spoke. “Harper Duke, are you sure you want to provoke me?” Harper felt that he was reversing right and wrong, and her face also darkened. “Please get it straight. You’re the one who came to provoke me with another woman.” “That’s because you rejected me without thinking the other day! The indignation in Harper’s eyes turned into confusion in no time. Preston had had many women before, but he had never been serious with any of them. He would never lower his status to try to reconcile after breaking up with them. But that night, he hugged her like a pup and nuzzled her neck. “I miss you a little. Please don’t leave me, okay?” She thought he was just talking nonsense due to the alcohol in him, but she never expected him to be serious. Harper was surprised for a moment, but then regained her composure… Regardles
Taya walked up to the second-floor bedroom without turning on the lights. By the dim light, she could see the Koenigsegg downstairs and the man inside. Through the half wound window, Taya noticed that he was typing on his phone. A few seconds later, Taya’s phone vibrated. She took out her phone from her pocket and opened WhatsApp. She saw a photo he sent, a picture of the two of them taken at the seaside. He typed her a message with only a few words: “Don’t delete the picture. Keep it as a memory.” A memory…Why would it be a memory? Taya wanted to reply to him, but she noticed that Griffon had his profile picture to a picture of her. Another message came in. “Taya, I love you. Goodnight.” After thinking for a few seconds, Taya replied, “Goodnight…” The next morning, Taya received a bouquet of roses from him, which was delivered by Andre. He didn’t come himself. Andre explained, “Ms. Palmer, Alpha Knight has several international meetings to attend today, so he asked me to deliver BIKI
Rebecca had shown up just to meet Taya. Having met her, she thus spun around and left. Looking at her graceful and composed back, Taya, who was so nervous that her heart leapt to her throat, gradually relaxed… She thought that the members of the Knight pack would despise her, look down on her, and even speak ill of her, just like Shelly. Unexpectedly, Griffon’ eldest sister was so gentle and elegant, without any arrogance whatsoever. Even if she did, it was only because of the way she had been raised in a rich pack, as well as the way she viewed the world, which was saturated by the knowledge she had obtained. Griffon lowered his head and asked, “When will you come back to the Knight pack’s house with me for the family dinner?” Taya raised her clear eyes to stare at his flawless face and thought to herself, “In the future.” At that moment, she had yet to reach a position where she could be a proper match for him and attend the Knight pack’s banquet.He didn’t get a response from her,
He brought Taya to the jewelry area. All he did was ask if there was anything she liked. Taya said no so he asked the shop a*sistant to send the latest collection of diamond jewelry to the villa without asking any further questions. The shop a*sistant glanced at Taya with envy, then replied respectfully, “Yes, Alpha Knight…” Taya, who was led out of the jewelry area by Griffon, stared at his back in a daze. He was sending her cars, flowers, and accessories. Was he going to send her clothes next? As Taya expected, Griffon took her to a clothing department selling haute couture garments. This time, he didn’t even ask for Taya’s opinion and directly asked the shop a*sistant to pack up a bunch of clothes. Seeing the shop a*sistants frantically helping her pack clothes, shoes, and bags, Taya rubbed her forehead in helplessness. She lowered her head and looked at Griffon, who was kneeling on one knee and helping her try on a pair of crystal high heels. “Who taught you all these tricks?” Con
Right then, the National Space Administration was funding her project with about 10 million dollars. It was enough to repay Neil for the favor he had done her. If not for his “eloquent” and “careful” teaching over the past couple of months, she wouldn’t have improved so fast. After finishing all of that, Taya turned on the computer. She clicked on various construction-related software, and self-study videos. She was a design student, so she had learned how to use all those software in school. She only had to review the process a few times, and she should be able to remember it. She was rushing to complete a project at that moment, and all she had was a sketch. After completing her sister’s projects, she had to continue taking on other projects as well. Since that was the case, she had to go through the entire process from sketches to post-production renderings. That way, she could grasp every link faster and more clearly. She continued studying until ten o’clock. In an attempt to take
