This was it this was the rejection I’d been so scared of Of course, Griffin wasn’t just going to wait
around Not when I didn’t give him any reason to stick around I knew this was going to happen and I
should be happy it was this soon in. Since I found myself liking little things about Griffin already. Maybe
that is why a part of me wanted to fight it. Tell him that he should not reject me and that I just needed a
little more time
“Please, let me know if I even have a chance. Because the moment we are good together they make
me so happy. I honestly think I have been blessed with a mate like you Ayla. So I am willing to take
things slow. I am willing to do whatever it takes to prove to you how good our life can be The only thing
I need from you is a little bit of hope. Even if it is just a spark” Griffin was honest and vulnerable when
he spoke to
me
It’s not a thing I have seen a lot of Alpha’s do. If he wanted hope I would give him hope. Because he
did stand a chance. I wanted to be able to trust him. I wanted to fall in love with him. I wanted to be
able to feel safe enough to accept him as my mate. I wanted it all but I wasn’
1 there vet
“You absolutely stand a chance, and I might have overreacted a little. I am still mad with you but we
can still share a bed tonight like an actual couple would” I offer him a weak smile.
Hoping it will be enough for him and it is. He just wrapped me in his arms and it reminded me of earlier
just before dinner when he panicked. Rushing to let go of me and my ugly scars
“Are you sure you are giving me another chance though? Now that you

have seen all of my. Now that you have seen how ugly I am” I whispered not wanting to say the words
out loud.
The invitation to reject me, break my heart, and most likely kill me at the same time. He denied my
claims of being ugly. With so much passion I would almost believe he was personally offended by the
fact that I called myself ugly. Like he didn’t know how small I was like he didn’t feel the need to hide my
scars from his serv ant. Maybe he was under the impression that you needed to find your mate
physically attractive. And for me that was the case, Griffin is the most handsome wolf I have ever seen.
It simply meant I was lucky if every wolf out there was attracted to their mate. Both physically and me
ntally all the time. No one would ever get rejected and as I knew all too well. That is not the case,
wolves get rejected all the time, even dying in the process. Wanting to give Griffin the chance to be
honest with me without feeling guilty I pointed out my size. I pointed out how he had hidden my b*dy
from his ser vant. All he did was laugh at me, it all started with a small chuckle but he was da mn near
hysterical by the time I sat down.
I didn’t want to believe he was laughing at me. Poking fun at me but it was hard to come up with
another excuse for his reaction. After all, he started laughing like this as soon as I finished pointing out
my insecurities.
“Ohh darling, for a while I hoped my fated mate would be human. Just so she would be smaller than
me. I have seen how fast you run, and how agile you are. So I doubt I ever need it. But being so much
bigger than you gives me a sense of purpose. Like I need to protect you and can. When I saw you, like
really saw you the first time when I noticed my mate was small for a wolf I was so happy. Knowing I
would have a mate who could snuggle up to me and almost hide in my embrace.” Griffin told me and so
genuine I had no other choice but to believe him.

He had seen how little I was the moment he first ran after me. My size has never stopped him from
pursuing me. That left us with the awkward moment where he stopped hugging me only to hide my
b*dy from the ser vant’s prying eyes. His explanation that he was possessive and protective and
actually hated the idea of anyone else seeing my n*ked b*dy was oddly flattering. He wasn’t
possessive in the unhealthy “You can’t have friends” kinda way. I had no qualms with him wanting to
hide my b*dy, keep the sight of my n*kedness for his eyes only. As it fitted what best suited me. At least
for now.
“It is not all about that though, you were mad at me before you even arrived here weren’t you” He
asked me and he was right.
With all the drama going on I almost forgot this man giving me a Porsche. It was the reason I got so
mad with him in the first place. Just not mad enough to never want to give us a chance anymore. So
when I felt like he was going to reject me over it my first need was to make sure he would give me
another chance. Something that sort of fixed itself. With that issue solved the older unresolved issues
like him giving me a car and lying about that came to the light again.
“You can not just give me a car Griffin, and especially not a Porsche. I honestly want to give you a
chance. But I am not giving you a chance just so you can buy me. Lure me in with pretty things in the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhope of making me stay. I am not like that I can’t be bought.” I huffed
I felt the anger rise within me again. Even Griffin’s explanation that he wanted me to be able to always
drive up here if he wanted. That he just wanted to spoil me and give me the very best. Or how the first
edition book his father gave me was probably just as expensive as the Porsche was. Did not help me
calm down, his throwing the book at me as if I asked for it only made me angrier. We both simmered
over with anger again and for the second time in one night, we were screaming at each other fighting. It
was our second weekend together, things shouldn’t be this bad. I should be regretting the decision to
get into bed with him

tonight. I should not be considering asking him for a guest room to sleep in.
“I never asked for either but the book I actually do love, I do not like cars that is why I did not owe one
you pompous jerk. You are not trying to get to know me. You are not competing against David because
at least he knew me unlike you.” I knew I should have never said that.
I knew just how mean it was but it just sl*pped out because I was losing self-control. And as Griffin
nodded he told me.
“I get it, you made your message clear I need to go on a run” And with that he slammed the door shut
behind him.
