Goodbye My Alpha (Taya and Griffon) novel Chapter 2

chapter2
Taya

I stared at the young couple in front of me, and my heart break took over me. I buried my head in my knees and cried bitterly.

Oh, Griffon Knight…

During my years with you when you were thinking about Tara, did you have any clue that I loved you?

Buy why would an Alpha like you pay attention to someone you hired to be a substitute.

I was crying uncontrollably now, and the girl came over and patted my back gently. She handed me a pack of tissues.

“Does it hurt?” she asked. “Don’t be afraid. I’ve been ill for years.”

I cried even harder. For a moment, I couldn’t even breathe.

But she had a boyfriend who loved her.

And I… Had no one.

Shaking the tears off, I steeled myself to get up and go home.

And saw Griffon walking down the hall toward me—with Tara on his arm.

Instead of the detached look he typically wore, there was a softness as he looked at Tara. As medical staff and other people rushed by them, he growled a bit if they got too close to her.

She was smiling up at him…and he was actually smiling back.

The happy couple, and me—the lonely outsider.

They’d gotten close enough, and I could see two dimples in Tara’s cheeks.

One night, when Griffon was falling asleep, he’d stroked my face and said regretfully, “I wish you had dimples. You’d look more like her.”

Now that I saw her, I knew why.

He bent his head and said something in Tara’s ear. She dipped her head shyly and covered her mouth, while Griffon lowered his head as if he were about to kiss her.

Just as I was about to turn away, he noticed me. His gaze was cold as it met mine, the amber of his wolf flashing in his eyes.

Quickly, he turned away.

Of course, he only had eyes for her.

I would swear I could feel the hole in my heart where the doctor said I was missing a piece.

Pressing a hand against my heart, I stumbled as I took out my phone with my other hand and sent a text message to him.
