Chapter 122


    Chapter 122


    How could Griffon have had something like that investigated?


    Or…did he know based on my scent? I knew Griffon had senses that were even more heightened than


    other wolves, being the powerful Alpha he was. But is that something he would be able to detect?


    I searched his eyes, waiting for something more, not knowing what to say.


    He seemed to be waiting for my exnation.


    However, I had indeed slept with someone. It just wasn’t who he thought it was.


    None of this would change anything. It didn’t matter if I told him the entire truth, and it didn’t matter if I


    lied to him. We would just continue to go around and around in circles.


    “I liedst time because I was angry with you. But this time, it’s true. Jackson is different from Roman.


    He’s kind and gentle, and I like him very much.”

    I met Griffon’s gaze, and I was careful to refer to Jackson


    without his Alpha title, to imply an intimacy that wasn’t actually there.


    Griffon let go of my chin, and it was almost as if I was watching

    the light go out of his eyes.


    After a long silence, he asked, “Did you know him before?”


    I shook my head. “No. Yesterday was the first time we met.”


    Griffon was so angry that heughed.


    It was terrifying.


    “You’re unbelievable. You’re really something, aren’t you?”


    My lips curled in a wry smile. “Didn’t you say that before?”


    My sarcastic remark caused Griffon’s face to darken.


    His gaze bored into mine, and I was fairly sure he wanted to strangle me to death right now if the look


    in his eyes was any


    indication.

    Then hisrge body pressed down on me, it was as if I’d actually been pounced on by a wolf, making it


    hard for me to breathe.


    I’d been afraid this would happen, but I hadn’t thought it would.


    No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t understand him. He’d broken up with me. Why did he care so


    much about what I did?


    Or was it because he couldn’t stand the thought of someone touching what once belonged to him.


    Before, he’d been adamant about no one else touching me. He didn’t want me tainted. No one touched


    something that belonged to the mighty Alpha Knight.


    No one.


    I remained still, unmoving as I tried uselessly to figure out Griffon’s motivations.


    Then, he gently bit my earlobe, the tip of his wolf’s lengthened canine lightly scraping across my flesh.


    “Are you truly so needy?”
