Goodbye My Alpha (Taya and Griffon) novel Chapter 121

Griffon’s demeanor immediately changed.
“Do you think I’m doing this for you?” he snarled.
He grabbed my cheek with one hand and swung my head left and right. “Look at yourself. What makes you think you’re worthy of me?”
Goddess, this man was confusing and insufferable!
“Then why did you—”
“The man you’re fucking is my future brother-in-law.”
My stomach sank and bile rose in my throat.
The realization of two things at the same time made me ill.
One, Silas—Jackson, was going to mate someone else.
Two, Griffon didn’t want to pay me to be his mistress; he wanted to pay me NOT to sleep with his sister’s promised mate.
Any thoughts I’d had regarding Griffon acting differently toward me, acting with affection were false. He’d simply been trying to steer me away from Jackson.
I should be mortified. Or enraged. Instead, I relaxed.
I’d actually been a bit afraid that Jackson had other feelings for me. I couldn’t bear it and didn’t dare to accept it. Not with my current situation.
I looked at Griffon and smiled sweetly. “Well, that takes care of that. Since Jackson is mating in your pack and will be your brother-in-law, I’ll refrain from…seducing him.”
Griffon’s knitted brows relaxed slightly, and his wolf receded from his features a bit.
After a stretch of silence, he reiterated, “Stay away from Jackson.”
I nodded obediently. Even without his reminder, I would still stay away from Jackson. I wanted to live a good life for a while.
Griffon said nothing else, and his gloomy expression gradually returned to his typical distant one.
Seeing that he had completed his warning mission, it seemed he wasn’t interested in me anymore.
“Alpha Knight, can you please take me back to my car?” I asked demurely.
Without looking at me, he started the car and drove at a breakneck speed back to the hotel garage.
Despite the terrifying drive back, I was grateful. “Thank you.”
After thanking him, I quickly pressed the button to get out of the car, but the door was still locked.
