Griffon’s face darkened. He quickly typed back. [That’s not a funny joke.] The response was almost immediate. [It is not a joke. I don’t know who you are, but based on the messages I read on here, you don’t sound like a great guy. If you want to find her, you can go to hell, to do it.] His heart stuttered. No, that wasn’t possible. He opened the door and looked at Andre, who was visibly flustered and upset, a rare occurrence for his a*sistant. “What happened?” he demanded, the gruffness and worry his wolf was feeling infusing his typically rigid tone, though he managed to keep the rest of his reaction calm. “Alpha… `Stella just called to tell me that Ms. Palmer pa*sed away at 2:19 p.m. yesterday…” After Andre finished speaking, he looked up at Griffon. He didn’t know if Alpha Knight didn’t hear him clearly or if he didn’t care. Why wasn’t he reacting? After standing awkwardly at the door for a while, Andre said uneasily, “I won’t disturb your rest.” Andre turned to leave, but a brusqu

    No, you didn’t suddenly get heart failure. Everything still pointed to a scheme. Taya had lied to Griffon several times before, so this type of treachery wasn’t beyond the scope of her character. He tried to comfort himself by telling himself this, but the uneasiness wouldn’t go away, and he could make himself fully believe in the story he was trying to spin in his head. He put down his phone, walked to the door, and opened it. Andre was worried about his Alpha, so he hadn’t left, had stayed outside the door. When he saw how Griffon looked when he opened the door, he couldn’t help but gasp. “Alpha Knight, what’s wrong?” Griffon narrowed his blood-red eyes and ordered, “Call Stella.” He wanted to ask her what was happening, but he couldn’t bring himself to make the call.It was as if somewhere, deep inside, he knew what she was going to say. His wolf’s intuition was rarely wrong, and there was definitely a reason why his wolf was so upset. Andre quickly took out his phone and called St

    He didn’t believe that Taya was lying inside. He had to expose their lies! Andre waved her hand at the pack guards, who immediately moved forward, shovels in hand. Harper rushed to stop them while Jackson grabbed Griffon by the collar of his white dress shirt. What are you trying to do? She’s dead!” Griffon growled and started to shift into his lycan form, reaching up to grab Jacks on’s wrist with a clawed hand. He dug his fingers into Jackson’s skin and suppressed his own pain. “Why are you hiding her from me?” Jackson snorted and looked at Griffon as if he were looking at a lunatic. “The mighty Alpha Knight.” He snorted again. “You’re so pitiful. You don’t even have the balls to face her death.” Griffon shoved Jackson away. He pointed to the fresh dirt and snapped his fingers at his men. The man was completely irrational. Everything that Harper had been feeling rose to the surface and poured out of her in a rush. She ran forward, placed her palms on Griffon’s chest, and shoved him a

    Harper pulled a letter from her pocket and thrust it at Griffon. “If Taya hadn’t left you this, I would never have told you anything.” After stuffing the letter into his hand, Harper walked away from the graveside. Griffon stared blankly at the paper, then unfolded it. [Today, Griffon said, “Don’t think I’ll love you.” It turns out that he really doesn’t love me.] Regret filled him. He remembered that night. He had said such harsh words because he had been angry and didn’t want her to leave with Silas, but when he was about to ask her to stay, he suddenly changed his mind. If only he had known… He would have let go of his pathetic and ridiculous Alpha ego and told her… The truth was, he had fallen in love with Taya the moment he saw her. It was not quite midnight, and it was raining heavily. He was covered in blood and sat under the shade of a tree near Arcadia University, waiting for Preston. Taya had probably come to the school to look for someone; she didn’t look old enough to be i

    Alpha, Madam is here. She’s waiting for you downstairs…” Griffon opened the safe in his home office and put the letter from Taya inside. The bottom compartment of the safe also contained a beige scarf and a photo he’d taken of her. On the day Griffon had terminated their contract, Taya had left the scarf behind. He had asked Andre to call her and ask her to come and get it, but she asked Andre to throw it away. She was the most resolute, determined person he knew. Once she made up her mind about something, that was that. He knew that from the moment he ended things, she would never come back to him. He reached out to touch the scarf. Her scent infused the fabric, and his wolf whined inside him as he closed his eyes and took in her smell. “Alpha, Madam is coming upstairs. Please hide the photo…” Frank urged Griffon with a panicked expression.However, Griffon took his time and caressed the photo. She was already dead, so there was nothing for him to worry about anymore. The sound of a

    After a few seconds, that felt like that stretched to eternity, Griffon slowly loosened his grip on the trigger. The people Taya cared about the most in this world were Silas and Harper. He couldn’t involve the people she loved just for the sake of his revenge. It wasn’t fair to them to involve them in this hell. After fighting his urges and working to get his wolf’s bloodlust under control, he slowly lowered the hand holding the gun. His mother seemed to have expected that he would put down his gun for the sake of the person he cared about, and her smile was even more smug. “That’s why you can’t ever defeat me. You might be an Alpha, but you have a weakness that I don’t have.” Griffon clenched his jaw and let out a low growl. It wasn’t that he had a weakness she didn’t have…it was that by pack law, he couldn’t do anything to her. She was his mother, therefore untouchable. If he were to ever do anything to her in retaliation, and it got back to the elders, he could be stripped of his

    As soon as his mother and her people were gone, Griffon looked at Frank, who’d been standing quietly in the corner. “Get a doctor for Stella.” Frank nodded and hurried out of the room. Stella struggled to look at Griffon. “I’m sorry, Alpha…” “It’s not your fault,” he said in a gentle manner that he didn’t usually show. But his eyes weren’t gentle in the slightest. The darker it got outside, the deeper the hatred in his eyes. It was not until Frank came in with the doctor that he got up and left. He opened a locked drawer in his study and took out a golden bronze mask and a set of ink and brushes. He picked up the brush and traced the shape of the green dragon stroke by stroke…After that, he picked up his phone and made a call. The other party quickly answered and asked respectfully, “Sir, what can I do for you?” He stared coldly at the darkening night outside the window and said coldly, “Nox, tonight’s targets are Shelly and Tara.” “Yes, sir. I’ll pick you up right away.” After hangi

    They cut her off, forcing her to pull over. She immediately locked the car doors and did not dare to get out. But she didn’t expect them to smash her car window with their elbows after they couldn’t open the door! Tara screamed in fright. Before she could think of a way to escape, the car door was pulled open, and a black sack covered her head. After she was dragged out, she was thrown into the trunk of a car. No matter how hard she shouted and struggled, no one answered her. When they finally stopped, she was pulled out of the trunk. She felt like she was about to be suffocated to death, and she hurriedly tore the sack off her head, gasping for air. She didn’t have a chance to catch her breath. Two wolf shifters grabbed her arms and dragged her over to a watering trough on a farm. It reeked of manure. Before Tara could process what was about to happen, her head was shoved under the water. When she was let up, the man who seemed to be in charge sneered and waved his hand. “Tie her up

    Everything was confusing. Taya had no idea where she was, how long it had been, how she was alive, who this strange man was… Amon seemed to have noticed the doubt in her eyes. He put down the medicine, sat up straight, leaned against the back of the sofa, and looked at her. “Do you want to know why you’re still alive?” Taya really wanted to reply to him, but she didn’t feel like she could force the words out, so she just blinked in response. “The person who saved you was my mate, your sister.” Taya blinked again. “I found a way to change her into a wolf shifter, so I could mate her, so she could be with me for so long as I lived. But then she decided she didn’t want it, felt that so long as she was a wolf, she wouldn’t be able to get into heaven.”Amon snorted. “She was desperate to find a way to…pa*s her wolf on to someone else.

    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.
