Chapter 220
Hearing Taya’s words, the chill in Griffon’s eyes deepened. Taya saw his fists clench at his sides, and a smattering of hair pop out on the back of them…his wolf was dangerously close to the surface. His claws were probably poking into his palms.
Taya didn’t dare to stare at him like this. She’d already pushed him enough but denying him, and she didn’t want to make eye contact and have his wolf take that as a challenge. She quickly turned her head and said to Jackson, “Let’s go.”
Jackson’s eyes flashed with his wolf, his pupils dilating when he
heard her.
No matter what their relationship was, at this moment, Taya chose him. Somehow, that felt better than anything else that could have happened in his life right now.
He hugged Taya tightly, setting his previous doubtful thoughts aside. Without saying a word, he strode past Griffon.
Griffon turned his head and looked at Taya. His eyes seemed
to pierce right through her to her very soul.
She quickly lowered her eyes again, trying to avoid his burning gaze, but he suddenly grabbed her arm.
He yanked her out of Jackson’s embrace.
Taya tumbled to the ground as Jackson stumbled slightly, unprepared for the other Alpha’s action.
The wound on her back rubbed against the cement, causing pain to s hoot through her.
She managed to ignore the throbbing and quickly reached out to pick up the coat that had slipped off her body when she
fell.
Griffon kicked it away before her hand could touch the corner
of the fabric.
Then, she felt a warm sensation on her body and a black coat tightly wrapped around her.
This coat was very large, larger than Jackson’s. Even her exposed legs were covered by it.
The faint fragrance of the material jolted her into awareness, into the memory of her body being wrapped in this scent once upon a time.
She slowly raised her head and looked up at Griffon standing in front of her.
Had he lost it? He’d just snatched her out of Jackson’s arms-in public!
Was he not afraid that others would see? Never before had he
“claimed” her in public.
No, an Alpha like him would never claim a weak little girl
without a wolf.
“Griffon!”
Jackson partially shifted into his wolf form, his ears pointing, fangs dropping, and his fingers curling into half-paws with long, black claws. He let loose a terrifying roar and rushed
toward Griffon.
