Chapter 127
I stared blankly at him, not knowing how to answer.
For years, I’d thought about why he wouldn’t ever stay the night with me, thinking there might be something wrong with me, something wrong with him..
My calling out for someone else would have meant so many things for an Alpha like him, none of them positive.
He must have hated looking at me after that…
After hesitating, I said tentatively, “Silas…is someone who once promised me that he would be with me forever.”
Griffon’s expression remained unmoved. “It seems that you love him very much.”
I collected my thoughts before answering carefully. “I used to love him very much.”
“What about now?”
“Now?”
When I saw his pursed lips and chiseled face, I wanted to reply, “I love you now.”
But I didn’t dare to say it, nor did I have the right to say it. No.
matter how much I loved Griffon, I was not worthy of him. A girl without a wolf could never be worthy of an Alpha.
I clenched my fists, pasted a smile on my face, and lied. “I don’t love anyone now.”
His hand trembled slightly as he brought the flask to hips lips. He took another swig, put the cap back on, and then shoved it back in his pocket.
He opened the car door and said flatly, “Get out.”
I suddenly wanted to tell him I loved him very much, regardless of if I was worthy of him or not. Regardless of if I could ever be with him.
But I never would. There might have been moments where I thought he might have feelings for me, but he’d never spoken any words of endearment or love. I would not profess my love for someone who did not feel the same.
I would never again place myself in that position. Words of love were for people who loved me back, not for people to laugh at the st upid human girl who thought they could be with a mighty wolf.
I used to love Silas so much and thought he would treat me well for the rest of my life, but what did I get in return?
In addition to being hurt, I almost lost my life.
Griffon was a man who was even more untouchable than Silas. I
couldn’t even think about touching such an untouchable person.
I knew who I was, and I was self-aware. I would never make such a st upid mistake.
