Looked like the goddess wasn't on my side right now.
I peeked around Jackson. To anyone else, Griffon looked flat and emotionless, ever the stoic Alpha.
But I knew better.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis eyes had that steely glint they got when he was trying to hide his wolf. That hint of silver.
Griffon glanced down at Jackson's hand and didn't make a move to extend his own, instead just raising an eyebrow and looking down to Jackson's hand and then back up to Jackson's face. He didn't say a word.
Jackson took it in stride and simply shrugged and lowered his hand. I'm guessing he'd heard plenty about Griffon's coldness. Frankly, I was surprised Jackson had even attempted to shake his hand, given Griffon's arrogant reputation.
Griffon looked beyond Jackson-to me.
"Ms. Palmer." Once Griffon addressed me, I couldn't continue to hide behind Jackson. Especially since I'd noticed that other pack leaders were milling about the lobby.
I greeted Griffon respectfully. "Hello, Alpha Knight." Griffon turned his body slightly towardand lookedup and down.
"You're really something, aren't you?" He pushed pastand walked into the elevator.
Clearly, he'd misunderstood what he thought he was seeing. But I didn't need to explain myself. We were over, and Griffon didn't wantanymore. Nothing I did was his business. Jackson raised an eyebrow and looked down at me, seeing as he was over a foot taller than me.
"Well, Alpha Knight doesn't seem very friendly to you. You and him..." He didn't finish his thought, but I knew what he meant, and I wasn't going to sugarcoat my answer. "Everyone in this circle knows that I'm a prostitute." *** Jackson didn't expect Taya to be so straightforward, and he was a little shocked by her answer.
However, after the photo of Taya and him made the rounds, several higher-level wolves from different packs in Arcadia sent him messages saying that she was Roman's woman.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven in Wolverly Capital, Jackson had heard of Roman's antics. He knew Roman was ruthless with women-human and she-wolf alike. Any woman who was willing to be involved with him were doing it for his money.
And since Taya had been tied to Roman...
It seemed that the orphanage director hadn't lied. She really did just Ve want to marry into a wealthy family.
No wonder she disappeared five years ago when she hadn't been able to fool him deciding to move on to to her next target.
But he'd never expected Taya to actually admit to what she was e doing. m He hadn't met a woman who was so brazen about her actions.
