Griffon’s face morphed into something between rage and
frustration.

“I said I would cure you, and you’ll do as I say. Regardless of your human status, I am the Alpha in Arcadia, and my word goes.”
He pulled on the quilt to cover her, picked up the report again,
and sat next to her.
His thick, long eyelashes drooped down, covering his big, dark beautiful eyes, making it difficult for people to discern what emotions were hidden beneath them.
But there was a faint hint of anxiety lurking between his furrowed brows, so slight that it would be hard to perceive if
one didn’t look carefully.
Griffon had always been good at controlling how he
presented himself to others. Most Alphas were pros at hiding their emotions, but Griffon was next level. Taya didn’t have the energy to try to figure out what he was thinking so she lay on
Ther side.
They rarely got along so quietly. It seemed that in the past five

om time to time, Taya would wonder what kind of position she occupied in his heart.
If she was just a contract lover, a substitute, then why did he still come to her after he ended the contract?
This time, he even snatched her away from Jackson in front of
so many people.
Could it be that his wolf was upset to see her with someone
else? Was it that he couldn’t stand the thought of her being
with another Alpha after him, since Alphas were so possessive
of ANYTHING that they had ever viewed as belonging to
them?
Or…maybe, in his heart, he liked her a little.
Taya didn’t dare to even think the word “love.” An Alpha wolf
like Griffon would never fall in love with someone like her. And
if they did…they would never admit it or give into it. The Elders
would never allow it to happen.
While she was lost in her thoughts, a phone vibrating pierced the silence in the room.
Griffon took out his phone and looked at the number on the screen before answering the call.

Alpha Knight.” Andre’s voice came from the other end. “The surveillance footage is done. No one else will know about Ms. Palmer’s presence at the hotel. Also, after you left with her yesterday, Jackson passed out. I had to take him to the hospital.”
“Well, then” Griffon responded flatly. “Is he awake?”
“He just woke up and asked to see Ms. Pal-”
“No,” Griffon interrupted, a growl lacing his tone.
Andre was in a dilemma. “Sir, I’m not sure what to do. After all,
he’s the Alpha of the Sterling Pack. Now that they have been looking for him, I can’t keep sending people to lock him up…”
After thinking for a few seconds, Griffon finally said, “Let him
go.”
Then, he ended the call and looked over at Taya, who was
sizing him up.
Taya had already guessed whom he was referring fo, so she
didn’t ask.
It would be fine if he were willing to let go of Jackson. When
she recovered a little, she would go to Jackson to thank him.

Griffon stared at the IV drip for a long time. When the bag was empty, he pulled out the IV line for her.
Taya glanced at the three bags of medicine next to her. Were
