chapter318
Harper was so angry that she laughed.
“You think she’s playing a trick on you? Are you out of your mind? Have you forgotten how you, your mate–to–be, and your cousin beat her? She was in the late stages of heart failure, and you inflicted a massive head wound on her. Did you think she would survive that?”
Harper almost roared and shifted into her wolf, the rage and grief and disbelief was flowing through her so much. In the end, all she could do was choke down her sobs.
When she thought of how Taya had been beaten up before she left the world, she couldn’t handle the despair she felt.
The angry and resentful cries on the other end of the line made Griffon’s chest tighten uncomfortably.
He wanted to control his emotions and his body’s reactions to them, but right now it was not as easy as it usually was.
The more he tried to control his heart and body’s responses, the more flustered he became. He tried to ignore the panic that was spreading, but his wolf seemed unable to regulate anything right now.

Clenching his phone, Griffon ground out, “What massive head
wound?”
“When Stella arrived at the hospital after you beat her, she had a head wound from hitting the corner of something when she fell. it’s all your doing. How dare you play dumb here? If it weren’t for you, she would still be alive.”
After that, Harper hung up the phone and blocked him.
He looked at the black screen in silence for a few minutes.
Griffon stood before the floor–to–ceiling window, his body starting to shake as his wolf struggled to force his body to shift into his animal form. Griffon was unable to support himself, and he began to go limp as the change took over him.
Griffon held on to the glass with one hand to steady himself, trying to hold his wolf back so he wouldn’t give into his primal instincts in this moment, but all he could think of was the scene of Taya lying on the ground in the bathroom at the mall.
Thinking of her lying alone in the bathroom in despair, he couldn’t help but feel…too much.
The sense of guilt that swiftly invaded his heart wrapped tightly around him, making it hard for him to breathe.
