While Taya was hugging her legs and leaning against the headboard in a daze, bright headlights hit the floor-to-ceiling gla*s.
Then, the sound of wheels rolling on the ground came from downstairs, and a luxury car stopped at the villa’s gate.
A pack guard holding an umbrella opened the rear door, and a tall man slowly got out of the car.
He tore off the tie around his neck with one hand and ordered coldly, “Don’t let him in.”
The pack guard replied with a “yes.” After walking the man to the door, he turned around and walked toward the iron gate outside the garden.
Taya stood before the French window and followed the pack guard’s line of sight. From a distance, she saw a man outside the iron gale.
She was too far away and it was raining heavily, so she couldn’t see the man’s face clearly and didn’t care much about him.
Withdrawing her gaze, she struggled to walk down the stairs with the help of the wall.
Griffon hadn’t returned for several days, and she hadn’t had the chance to propose leaving.
Taya had to seize the opportunity now that he was back.
Griffon had just taken off his coat and handed it to the servant when she got downstairs.
His gloomy and cold face became even more of a snarl when he saw her coming downstairs.
However, Taya didn’t notice and quickly went up to him. “Alpha Knight…”
She wanted to say a few words to him, but he didn’t even give her a look and went straight to the bathroom.
Frustrated by the rejection, Taya’s face darkened.
He left her at home, ignored her, and even glared at her. Did he think she was a punching bag?
Taya wanted to give up on asking him about leaving, but when she saw Frank, who was following her closely, she resisted again.
Without Griffon’s permission, Frank, the servants, and the pack guards would keep an eye on her. Even if she wanted to escape, she had no choice.
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and sat down on the sofa in the living room,
After about an hour, the bathroom door slowly opened.
Then Taya quickly got up and walked over.
“Alpha Knight, you said you would take me home after a few days of rest. Now that I’m almost recovered, can you let me go?”
The wolf still ignored her. He just glanced at her with a growl and then walked to the second floor.
Taya felt embarra*sed when she was ignored by him, and she dared not approach him anymore. But she couldn’t stay in his house all the time.
“Alpha Knight.”
“Alpha Knight…”
Taya mustered up her courage and strength to catch up with him.
She didn’t expect him to stop suddenly. Before she had time to stop, she bumped into his back.
The impact was so strong that she almost rolled backward down the stairs. Fortunately, Griffon reacted quickly and wrapped an arm around her waist.
The two of them were extremely close to each other. Their eyes reflected each other’s appearance…
Taya lowered her head and whispered, “Thank you.” Then, she stood still and pushed him away.
Griffon glanced at her indifferently and asked with a growl, “Have you discussed this with him?”
“What?”
Taya raised her head to look at him, her eyes full of confusion.
Griffon looked at the figure outside the window and asked, “He was able to find this place. Didn’t you ask him to come to pick you up?”
Taya followed his line of sight and looked out the window, but she couldn’t see clearly. She had no choice but to take a few steps.
Looking down from above, she could see everything outside.
With the help of the bright streetlights outside the iron gate, she could finally see who the man was.
“Jackson…”
How did he find this place?
“Your old lover is here to pick you up, so you were eager to leave?”
His sarcastic tone pulled Taya back to reality.
She looked at Griffon, who had already walked to her side.
He had just taken a shower and smelled pleasant.
But what he said was so unpleasant.
Taya pursed her lips and did not reply. She wanted to leave.
But if she walked out of the villa at this moment, Griffon would definitely think that she had discussed it with Jackson.
“Why aren’t you leaving?”
Griffon lowered his head and looked at her with frigid eyes.
Seeing the iciness in his eyes, Taya was afraid he would think she didn’t want to leave, so she quickly turned around.
However, as soon as she took two steps towards the stairs, Griffon grabbed her by the arm and pulled her into his arms.
“As expected, you’ve discussed it with him!”
A low growl came from above her head, which stunned Taya for a moment.
“I didn’t discuss it with him.”
“Then how did he know you were here?”
“I don’t know, either. Maybe it’s-”
“Don’t try to evade the issue. You wanted me to find your purse so you could contact him.”
Before she could explain, Griffon interrupted her.
Taya stopped talking.
He had already decided that she had contacted Jackson to come to pick her up, and no matter what she said, the Alpha wouldn’t believe her. It was better just to forget it.
“He came to pick you up as soon as you recovered. How else would he know when to get here if you hadn’t told him?”
His pressure and lack of trust made Taya feel very tired. She took a deep breath and then spoke.
Yes, I’ve discussed it with him. I asked him to pick me up when I can leave the bed and walk around.”
Seeing that she admitted to it, Griffon sneered, his wolf showing in his eyes and his fangs dropping slightly.
“You’re so cheap. You haven’t fully recovered yet but already wanted him to sleep with you!”
Griffon never failed to think the worst of her.
Taya raised her face and smiled provocatively at him:
“You’re right. I’m desperate to sleep with him, so please let me go!”
Griffon’s body stiffened.
Taya could feel that she had angered him, but she didn’t know if she was too angry and that was overriding her fear of him. She just didn’t want to let him off the hook.
Like a thorny rose, she stabbed him with all her thorns and said, “We’ve separated, and you’re getting mated. We don’t have any reason to see each other ever again.”
Griffon’s body became stiffer, and his eyes was so dark they looked like ink might start to seep from them.
“What did you say?”
He spoke in a low and ominous growl, and his fangs were fully extended now.
Looking directly into the Alpha’s eyes, Taya gritted her teeth and said, “I told you not to pester me anymore. I don’t want to see you again. Please let me go and let me go home with him.”
After they separated, Griffon came to find her several times, which always made her mistakenly think that he could not let go of her.
But when she heard him say he had only physical needs for her, she decided she had to make a clean break from him.
Since she wanted to cut off all ties, she had to be more decisive with her words. Otherwise, it would seem like she wanted to refuse but was still willing to accept him. She needed to present a strong stance. An Alpha would only accept a strong stance.
Taya thought that if she acted decisively enough, he would let her go and let her get out of his house.
However, he held her waist with one large hand and backed her
