I was still shocked that Jackson would cforward to stand up for me.
Pursuing any line of questioning wasn't a good idea, but Lena's accusations madeangry.
Just as I was about to ask her what I had said to her, a commanding voice suddenly cfrom behind me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Why, Miss Wilton, have you been learning to confuse right and wrong in the past few years?" I didn't need to look to know who was speaking. I was grateful he was also standing up for me, but I didn't dare to look back.
*** Griffon glared at Jackson, who was holding onto Taya's hand, then he slowly walked down the stairs and stood in front of Lena. "I just happened to pass by when Miss Wilton humiliated her." Griffon refused to show her any respect and exposed her lie, causing Lena to pale.
Lena still wanted to argue, but there was a murderous look in Griffon's eyes. One that alerted everyone not to mess with the Alpha. She had never seen such a terrifying look before. Even though his eyes were beautiful, the look was enough to petrify her.
Lena was so scared that she immediately shut her mouth. She stood rooted to the spot, not daring to move.
Only then did Henry realize that something had happened to his sister. He quickly pushed through the crowd and rushed over. Before Henry could ask what had happened to Lena, Griffon gave him an indifferent look.
"I expected the Wilton shifters to be a bit classier than this." After saying that, Griffon left with his pack bodyguards.
Watching the show from the side, Preston looked thoughtfully at Griffon's back.
Griffon never spoke up for anyone-unless they were important.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd he had to admit, watching Lena be put in her place was incredible.
Preston glanced at Taya, who was standing intimately with Jackson, and his expression darkened slightly.
What was it about Taya that was so special to his cousin? He hadn't expected a non-wolf to be so capable in her ability to snag a shifter. Not only could she get Jackson to protect her, but she could also get Griffon to speak up on her behalf. Even though Griffon and Jackson were strong Alpha wolves, defending a human over a shifter was risky. Didn't Taya realize that? Of course she did.
But that was what she wanted, no matter how hazardous that might be for the men she involved in her scheming.
Preston wanted to go over and teach difer her a lesson, but after thinking for a minute, he decided against it. Not his monkey, not his circus.
Preston turned around, nodded to his ded to assistant, and left with Griffon.
