Before she could smile at him seductively, Tara was stopped in her tracks by Griffon’s warning tone.
She approached him and looked at him slightly disappointedly. “Griffon…aren’t you happy that I’m here?”
There was no expression on his handsome face. He stared at Tara and repeated his question.
He did NOT like repeating himself.
“Why. Are. You. Here?”
This was the pack’s private residence. Almost no one knew it existed.
And that’s the way Griffon liked it.
Had the she-wolf been following him?
Tara was frightened by his gaze. She stepped back, wrapping herself tightly in the bath towel.
“Your mother knows your whereabouts like the back of her hand. She asked me to come here because she thinks we should be making more progress since I’ve returned from my studies…”
She plucked up her courage, stepped forward, and lifted her hand to touch the Alpha’s cheek.
He leaned away to evade her before her fingers could make contact with his skin.
As usual, he avoided her.
Tara smiled in despair. “Griffon, how long do you want me to wait?!”
He looked down at her, not wanting to talk to her anymore.
“Get out,” he growled, his claws starting to poke out of his fingertips as his irritation level rose.
Someone picked up the last call. It ended in a few seconds, and Taya never called again.
Frustrated, he quickly called Taya back. He was eager to hear her voice, but she didn’t answer.
He remembered that it was the weekend. Taya liked to sleep in, so he didn’t call again.
He put down his phone and was about to lie down to rest when he got a WhatsApp message.
There was only one friend on his account, and that was Taya…
He quickly picked up his phone and opened WhatsApp, only to hear Andre’s anxious voice outside the door.
“Alpha, open the door. Something happened to Ms. Palmer!”
At the same time, he saw the message: [Greyson, she has passed away. Please don’t message her anymore.]
