The Billionaire Alpha's Contract Lover Griffon's Unforeseen Agreement
Brooks wanted Griffon to go to dinner. He wanted Griffon to mediate the issues between the Sterling pack and the Midwest Packs Corporation. Only if Griffon handled the situation and explained things would the Sterling pack conform. With Griffon being the powerful Alpha he was, his word tended to be law, even over the elders. Otherwise, with Tara being the new CEO, smoothing things over with the Sterling pack would be her job, and Brooks knew that it would be impossible for her to do-given the fact that her relationship with Griffon was the crux of the issue. But right now, Griffon appeared to be unhappy, and that put Brooks on edge. After all, he couldn’t figure out Griffon’s feelings for Tara now that she’d returned, so he was unable to ask Griffon to do things as his father-in-law. He needed to be cautious with how he worded things and with what requests. he made. As an elder, Brooks wielded a certain amount of power, but Griffon and the Knight pack were a different beast altogether
The Billionaire Alpha's Contract Lover The Forgotten Love
I lacked love. I lacked pa*sion so much that if someone treated me with the tiniest bit of kindness, I would hand over my heart without hesitation. I craved a partner, a mate, the way I saw people around me have. Not people…shifters. Shifters who would never choose a human as their mate. Although the two men I’d loved had abandoned me, I didn’t regret my love for them. I had tried my best to love hard, but no one had ever loved me. Maybe in my next life, the goddess would reward me for what I’d gone through in this one. That idea was more than a little ridiculous. When a person was dead, they were dead. I put away my thoughts and looked up at Silas-er, Jackson Sterling.Right now, I am needing to concentrate on why I was here in front of him. “Alpha Sterling, I’ve always treated business a*sociates of the Midwest Packs Corporation professionally. As for what happened five years ago, that’s all in the past. Nothing to worry about.” Regardless of whether he was truly suffering from amne
The Billionaire Alpha's Contract Lover Unveiled Encounter
He was wearing a royal-blue shirt and a coat of the same color. Even from a distance, he exuded immense power. Everyone who walked by him gave him a wide berth, as if they were afraid of getting too close. As he approached, I could see his face. The tenderness of youth had faded away, leaving a chiseled jaw and strong angles. It had been so long, but when I saw him again—with the new name “Jackson Sterling”-I only felt calmness. Not even a single stutter of my heart. I lifted a hand to wave at the group. “This way!” When the man saw the woman waving at them, he was slightly taken aback. His trip to Arcadia was primarily to attend the bidding for the Weston City project. The last person he expected to receive him was Taya. He was stunned for a few seconds before he returned to normal and led his men toward her. Even his wolf was thrown off kilter by seeing her.He was a more than a foot taller than her when he stood before her, looking down at her. “Ms. Palmer, long time no see.” Taya’
The Billionaire Alpha's Contract Lover Unplanned Dinner Outing
Fortunately, the dizziness came and went quickly, and I soon recovered. When I was about to get up to go to the bathroom, I saw Griffon standing at the elevator doors. He looked as gorgeous as he always did. The lights seem to shine on his muscular frame, giving the appearance of a halo around him—which was laughable to think of Alpha Knight as someone deserving of a halo. He seemed to have been standing there for a while. Nerves shot through me when I saw him. Sure, I’d known he was going to be there, but I’d thought I would be able to avoid him. I still could. Just as I was looking around to make my exit strategy, he strode toward me, his long strides quickly eating up the space between us. There was no way for me to avoid him. I could only hold my purse tightly and quickly turn my back to him. It was as though his mere presence thickened the air surrounding us. I was a little out of breath, and my grip on my purse strap “Do you want me to open the door on my own?” A terrifying grow

The Sterling pack had always been professional. Jackson didn’t have to worry about their strength-and weakness? Not an issue —so he simply nodded his agreement. His concerns with MPC handling Knight pack projects couldn’t be resolved just by Tara saying things were fine. Jackson would have to see how everything was actually handled…not how they SAID they were going to handle it. Seeing that his Alpha had relented, Beta Smith spoke. “Ms. Thorin, yes, the Sterling pack has worked to remove the Midwest Packs Corporation from handling Knight pack business. I’ve spoken to my team regarding this, and they have ceased their efforts.” Of course, Tara didn’t believe what he said, but she wouldn’t embarra*s the Sterling pack Beta in front of everyone here. Instead, she said, “In that case, let’s turn hostility into friendship. We can cooperate well and help each other in the future.” After that, Tara picked up her gla*s and toasted Alpha Sterling and Beta Smith. After she finished it, she smile
The Billionaire Alpha's Contract Lover Recovery and Tensions
The oxygen tank was small, but it was enough to help me. Slowly, the pain in my heart subsided with every breath I took, and I started to come around. I opened my eyes and saw Jackson standing by the bed I was in, a frown on his face. I was confused and a bit stunned. Was it Jackson who had saved me? And where was I? Had the person who’d once tried to k ill me just saved me? I pulled the oxygen mask away from my face and struggled to get up from the bed. Jackson pressed me back down and said, “Don’t move.” I pushed his hand away. “I’m fine. Thank you for your help, Alpha Sterling.” Determined to get away from this dangerous shifter as quickly as possible, I forced myself to sit up and get out of the ma*sive bed, holding onto the bedside table for support. After taking a couple of seconds to get used to being upright, I stood. Immediately, dizziness overtook me again. I swayed, trying to focus on the door across the hotel room. Staring at a fixed point usually helped. Not this time. Wa
The Billionaire Alpha's Contract Lover Echoes Of Deceit
When Preston saw that the woman on the bed was Taya, he was shocked. Looks like he’d been wrong about her. As soon as Roman fell from grace, Taya had hurried to attach herself to someone else with power. She worked fast. Preston hated being wrong about people. And the fact that she was human somehow made it worse. How was this nothing of a human woman able to wrap men around her finger so quickly? After thinking about it for a while, he texted the picture to Griffon. Someone needed to teach Taya a lesson, but Preston didn’t feel like it was his place to do so. After all, Griffon was the one who’d been involved with her, so Preston would leave it to him. As Griffon returned home and saw the photo, darkness filled him and his wolf started to rise to the surface, itching to get out and…punish. “When did you see this?” he texted to Preston. Preston replied, “Just now. One of the guys sent it to me.” Griffon didn’t respond. His fingers tightened around his phone, his claws growing until th

Harper, who was sitting on the yoga mat in the living room, wiped the sweat off her forehead with a towel and asked Taya, “Who is he?” Harper had never met Eric before, so naturally she didn’t know who he was. Taya explained, “He is Stella’s brother…” Taya remembered that Stella had mentioned that Eric was her nominal brother, but they didn’t have any blood relation. Their relationship was quite complicated. Harper looked Taya up and down, and a hint of nervousness appeared in her eyes, “Is Stella’s brother interested in you?” It was late at night, and if Stella’s brother came to find Taya with the wrong intentions, it would not end well if it was known by Griffon. Taya smiled and took the milk that the housekeeper brought. She handed it to Harper and replied, “Eric is Stella’s man, don’t think too much about it.” Harper had just taken a sip of milk and almost choked herself. “What?” “Aren’t they siblings?” After teasing Harper, laya laughed and walked out of the villa. “Dr. Sinclair,

After hanging up the phone, Zack entered Griffon’ car under disguise. “Mr. Griffon, I’ve almost finished investigating the cause of Simon Knight’ death,” said Zack. Griffon put down his phone, feeling tired. He lifted his chin slightly, indicating for Zack to continue. “Simon Knight did die of a sudden brain disease caused by overwork. I’ve carefully followed up with all the doctors,nurses, and everyone who had contact with him, as well as the medication he used. Their accounts are consistent with no discrepancies,” said Zack. Griffon frowned slightly, looking pale and cold. “So you’re saying that Tara is lying?” Zack quickly judged, “Ms. Thorin is probably just trying to protect herself by using Simon Knight’ cause of death.” Griffon recalled the past and felt a headache coming on. He didn’t have the energy to delve into it any further, so he simply waved his hand at Zack. As Zack was getting out of the car, he remembered something and turned back to ask, “Mr. Griffon, did we not per

The car quickly arrived at Harper’s villa. Taya withdrew her hand from ma*saging Griffon’ temples and suggested, “I’ll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow.” After Griffon nodded lightly, he wrapped his arm around her waist. He lifted his head and kissed her again before reluctantly letting go. “Goodnight…” Taya replied with a “goodnight” before getting out of the car. As she reached to push the villa’s door, she turned around to take one last look. The partially lowered car window revealed a sharp and angular face, as pure and noble as moonlight. Taya smiled slightly at him before turning and walking into the villa… Once the door closed, the man in the car, who had been forcinghimself to sit up, collapsed onto the backseat. “Andre, painkillers.” Andre quickly retrieved the painkillers, raised the divider, and handed them to Griffon. He took them and put them in his mouth. His face turned as pale as a sheet of paper without a trace of color. worry. hay “When did your headache start,

As they were about to enter the elevator, Harper suddenly appeared in the corridor. “Wait a minute, I have something to tell you guys.” Just now, Harper was only worried about Taya’s health and forgot to tell them the purpose of Johnny’s visit. “Alpha Knight, Taya.” Harper walked up to the two of them and said to them, “Johnny came here to find out about Rosalie’s whereabouts.” Hearing this, Taya quickly motioned for Griffon to put her down. Once she had both her feet on the ground, she frowned and looked at Harper. “Why does he want to know my sister’s whereabouts?” Could it be that Johnny knew her sister? Was that why he said that she looked familiar? “He sounded very angry. It seems like he came to look for trouble.” “Is he my sister’s enemy?” Harper shook her head, expressing that she did not know. “I only know the reason he came here. It’s because he found out that I was the first person you met when you came back from England.This is the place where we met, that’s why he came.”

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
The Billionaire Alpha's Contract Lover Clash Of Fate
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
The Billionaire Alpha's Contract Lover Encounter With The Wolf
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
