The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover - Season 2 Episode 15

Cr ap.
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.
His 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 arro gant reputation.

I greeted Griffon respectfully. “Hello, Alpha Knight.”
Griffon turned his body slightly toward me and looked me up and down.

him messages saying that she was Roman’s woman.
Even in Wolverly Capital, Jackson had heard of Roman’s anties. 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.

No wonder she disappeared five years ago when she hadn’t been able to fo ol him, deciding to move on to her next target.
