When I heard that name, my body stiffened. I slowly turned from Roman’s unwanted embrace and looked toward Griffon, who was standing in the elevator. I couldn’t see his expression clearly because I was too far away, but I felt his eyes staring at me without blinking, could see the glow of his wolf in them. The coldness emanating from his gaze seemed like it could devour me instantly. As soon as Brooks Thorin, an elder and the chairperson of Midwest Packs Corporation, walked in, he saw Griffon.

He quickly walked over. “Griffon, why are you here today?” Only then did Griffon look away and reply to Elder Thorin. “I brought Tara here.” Gone was the cold wolf, and instead I watched as his “mask” came on and his demeanor changed. Elder Thorin nodded satisfactorily and said, “Thank you for your time. Tara hasn’t even been back twenty-four hours, and you have already run her around.” “It’s my pleasure to escort your daughter, Elder Thorin.” Griffon nodded his head politely. Go on ahead. Don’t delay your important pack work. I’ll bring Tara to visit you officially in a few days,” Elder Thorin said. Griffon nodded again and left. The pack bodyguards behind him quickly divided into two groups to protect him. He didn’t even spare me a glance when he passed by. He had been so focused on Taya, Roman hadn’t realized that Alpha Knight was there. Furthermore, he quickly let go of Taya and chased after Griffon to greet him. However, Griffon entered his car and slammed the door shut. Dozens of luxury cars parked outside followed him and drove off Away. Having failed to catch him, Roman had no choice but to turn back and look for Taya, only to see her fleeing toward the guest elevator. Roman touched his lips, where he had just pressed them against Taya’s skin.

The scent of her lingered, and his wolf prowled inside of him in the excitement of hunting his prey. “Mason, go and find me Taya’s address,” Roman ordered his man . “Yes, Beta,” Mason immediately replied, following behind. I returned home, put down my bag, and sat on the sofa in a daze. I didn’t come to my senses until the phone rang. When I took out the phone from my bag, I frowned at the caller ID. Why would Andre call me? After hesitating for a beat, I answered, “What’s the matter, Andre?” Andre’s respectful voice came through. “Ms. Palmer, I found your things here while cleaning the apartment just now. When will you have time to come and pick them up?” do you, I’d hoped that perhaps Griffon might be requesting to see me. My heart sank. “Please throw away whatever you find.” I hung up without waiting for a reply. Then, I quickly deleted Andre and Griffon’s contact information. I turned off the phone and fell asleep on the sofa. After sleeping for a while, a knock on the door woke me up. Recently, Harper had been working the night shift and coming back late, so she’d given her key to me.

It was probably just her coming home from work. But when I opened the door, Roman was standing there. Beta Starke?” How did this creep find me?! I tried to shove the door closed, but Roman stretched out his large, powerful arm and pushed to keep it open. Frightened, I took a step back. I was no match for a wolf shifter. Not with my current health, and not without a wolf of my own to protect me. Roman stood in the doorway, using his foot to hold the door open and placing his hands on either side of the door frame . He looked at me with his head tilted, a shit-eating grin on his face “What are you afraid of, little girl? I won’t bite.” His eyes were jet black, with a hint of his wolf’s amber glow. When he stared at her, he exuded the excitement of a predator that had cornered its prey. “Ms. Palmer, are you not going to invite me in?” His question was polite, but his tone didn’t fool me. I knew what kind of person Roman was and what he would do. There was no way I was willingly letting him in.“ Sorry, this is my friend’s house. I’m not allowed to have guests without her permission. I tried to close the door again, but Roman stepped in further and closed the door behind him. Now that he was inside, and the door was shut, there was no escape, no one to hear my cries for help if I screamed. Steeling my spine, I was determined to exude any amount of control and confidence I could muster .up.“ Beta strake, what the fuck are you going to do?” “To fuck you. Am I clear?” Roman growled.

As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on my chest, not hiding his purpose. I had changed into a silk pajama with a lower neckline before bed. Roman was taller than me, so he could see everything from above. I quickly closed my pajamas and covered my chest. My tactical error was evident as I realized I had wrapped myself too tightly, unintentionally displaying my curvy figure. Despite Taya apparent illness and weakness, her breathtaking beauty remained undeniable. Her delicate , flawless features, complemented by clear, dewy eyes as pure as crystal, captivated all who beheld her. Thick, glossy waves of hair cascaded over her shoulders, framing her full chest in an irresistible allure . Furthermore, her slender waist and long legs stirred Roman’s desire, stirred his wolf’s need to claim her. Furthermore, her sassy figure could arouse anyone with just one glance, and Roman was no exception. When she came to deliver the documents that day, he couldn’t help but want to take her right then and there. Now she was standing in front of him in her sexy pajamas. How was he supposed to stand it? Heat suffused his body, and the groin of his pants tightened. He felt like he was losing his mind, and he pushed Taya against the wall. With his hands pressing her shoulders back, he pressed his body against hers and leaned in to nuzzle the soft, sweet spot between her neck and shoulder.

One million. Give yourself to me tonight.” I trembled, desperately pushing against Roman’s chest to force him away. Get out! I’m not a prostitute!” I had just stopped being one man’s kept mistress, and now here was another man offering money to get between my legs. It was ridiculous! “Five million, plus a mansion. “Even if you give me 100 million dollars, I won’t accept it. You’d better let me go, or I’ll call the police!” “Go ahead and call the police. Let’s see who dares to arrest me, the Starke Pack Beta!” Roman was not afraid at all, instead dropping a kiss on my shoulder. I tried to dodge away, but he moved to kiss me on the forehead. I felt as if I were being licked by a snake, and nausea rolled through me.

    Roman wasn't concerned about my feelings and tore off my pajamas. When his calloused hand touched my lower back, I screamed in fear. “Roman!” The deafening scream stopped Roman’s wandering hand. But he only paused for a moment before pulling at my clothes again. I could sense that his wolf was taking over, and if that happened even more, I wouldn’t be able to get through to him. I’d experienced it when Griffon’s wolf took over, and no words could get through to the animal. Likewise, I regretted not bringing a baseball bat to the door to beat him to death.“Roman, if you dare to rape me tonight, I promise you’ll see me back in court tomorrow!” Roman’s hand paused again, but then he sneered, as if he had heard a great joke. “You think I’d be afraid of seeing you in court? A Beta against a Little girl with no wolf?” he scoffed.I clenched my fists. “I know your pack is powerful, but I swear I’ll make your scandal public!!” “Sure, go ahead. It’s been awhile since I made headlines anyway.”

    Just as I was done with my preparations, Roman sent his assistant, Mason, to pick me up. Sitting in that Maybach, I thought Mason would drive me to Roman’s place, but I was taken to a mall. Stylists and makeup artists surrounded me, curling up my waist-length hair and applying exquisite makeup to my face. I was dressed in an expensive evening gown, tailored to fit me perfectly. A diamond necklace that was worth millions was placed on my neck. I looked at myself in the mirror. Noble, elegant, and refined. But I didn’t feel like myself. I looked more like Tara.If Griffon had seen me like this, he might have thought I was trying to mimic her. I smiled bitterly. Finally, I was all dressed up, and Mason took me to Nightshade. It was the largest nightclub in Arcadia. The people who came Here, they were either rich or powerful, both human and shifters alike. Species didn’t matter…only money and power. The place could guarantee these people their privacy. There were virtually no security cam

    It seemed that Griffon was not interested in Roman's comparisons. Roman said nothing more and led me to sit opposite him. As soon as we sat down, a man in an expensive suit opened a bottle of wine and handed it to me “Taya Palmer, right? Can you drink? I didn’t know who this man was, and the suddenness of his offer made me feel uneasy. I hesitated, unsure of what to do. I wasn’t sure if he was a wolf or not, so I didn’t know if he was offering me regular wine, or wine laced with wolfsbane. Wolfsbane would kill me. Seeing me hesitate, the man suddenly smiled. “Don’t worry. There isn’t any wolfsbane in this.” The man’s gentle demeanor put me at ease. I accepted the wine and took a small sip, but I still felt unsure about drinking it.The woman sitting next to the man noticed my hesitation and began to sneer. “Beta Starke, the girlfriend you found is awful. Preston kindly poured her a drink, but she was too scared to drink it. How rude.” Preston… This must be Griffon’s cousin, Preston Kn

Khloe put the paper balls on the table and paired up those who drew the same number automatically. There were four players in the first round, and the others would line up. Those who got the numbers 1 or 2 played first. Unfortunately, I got number 2. I raised my eyes to look at the other side. It turned out that Griffon had gotten the number 1, which meant we were in a hostile situation. Khloe, who had also gotten the number 1, raised her eyebrows at me as if to say, “Wait and see.” “What about the other 2? Who got it? After hesitating momentarily, Preston opened the paper ball in his hand. He smiled at me and said, “I’m not good at playing cards.I have to count on you.” I responded with a smile that was uglier than crying. I was a well-behaved girl who always listened to the orphanage director when I was young, listened to my teachers in school, listened to my boss, and

    Roman took the opportunity to hand over a bottle of wine. “Alpha Knight, why don’t you let Taya pour a glass of wine for you?” Roman had wanted to see me undress in front of everyone, but he quickly realized that I was his date and that he had publicly referred to me as his girlfriend. He would look like a fool if I took my clothes off in front of everyone-especially an Alpha. And that was the only thing that saved me. Preston reacted quickly and agreed with Roman. “Let her buy a glass of wine as punishment. Pour After that, he signaled me to pour wine for Griffon. How…how was pouring him wine a punishment? I looked up at Griffon.His face was blank, and I couldn’t figure out what he was thinking…if he was thinking anything at all. He’d been holding a glass of wine all evening, but I’d yet to see him take a sip of it. I didn’t know what kind of wine was in his glass, if it was laced with wolves bane or not. I mustered the courage to pick up the expensive red wine on the table, walked

    As I kneeled, Khloe laughed with delight, while Preston frowned and the others looked on as if they were watching a show. Roman showed no emotion, only ambivalence. Only Griffon, leaning back against the sofa with one arm stretched across it and his legs spread wide, looked down at me with a smug look across his face. There was no mistaking who the Alpha in the room was, and Griffon clearly knew it. I couldn’t help but think of the hundreds of days and nights we had spent together, but suddenly, it all felt like it wasn’t worth it. I’d thought I could leave with dignity, to escape this place and these people, but I should have known better. This was the cruel reality of our different social statuses. I had slept with him for five years, destined to be trampled under his feet. Stomped down by his status as an Alpha, wolf, and billionaire. However, I had only a few months left to endure. With this thought, I found a sense of calm. I kneeled, poured the wine, and handed the glass to Grif

    Taya My whole body stiffened. I didn’t dare to move, afraid of getting Roman even more aroused. I fought to suppress my disgust and keep calm. “Bela Starke, when I fall in love with you one day, I’ll be bold enough for you, too.” Roman pulled me against him, my dress still soaked in red wine, pressed against his chest. He lowered his head to kiss my neck. “I can’t wait that long.” After saying that, he lifted my dress until it was bunched around my waist and started to unzip his pants. All the color drained from my face, and I struggled with all my might.But all that did was turn Roman on even more. He held me even more tightly in his arms and clamped his teeth down on my neck harder. “Beta Starke!” Trapped, I could do nothing but hopelessly try to press my hands against his chest. I frantically looked around for my bag. Sh it. It was on the opposite sofa, too far unreachable. My palms were covered in a cold sweat, anxiety spreading through my body, but I had to force myself to calm

    The scent of Griffon’s cologne mingled with the scent of the sweet wine soaked into my dress and made me a bit dizzy. As he approached me, I felt a bit at a loss and tried to move away from him, my hand flailing a bit for the door handle. But the car was too narrow, and I could only move a little before my back was pressed against the door, my hand unable to find the latch in my haze. Griffon shifted his body so that he boxed me against the door, one hand pressed against the car window, the other hold me tightly around the upper arm. His cold eyes glanced briefly over my body, landing on the diamond necklace around my neck. After what felt like an eternity, he let out a contemptuous laugh. “It seems that your new sugar daddy treats you well.” Griffon let a rare smile cross his lips.However, his smile was even more terrifying than his typically Stoic expression. I wanted to explain, but the word “new sugar daddy” rendered me silent. From the moment Roman introduced me as his woman, th

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.

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

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.

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.

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,

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.
