Without batting an eyelid, Griffon said, "I just want to see how the Sterling Alpha is going to deal with Roman's
leftovers. Aren't you afraid of being infected?" Jackson's face darkened. "I thought you were more of a gentleman
than to slander a woman."
Griffon pushed off the pillar and straightened his back. He walked up to Jackson and stared him in the eye. "And
you're the judge of what is 'gentlemanly'?" Jackson didn't reply. Instead, he looked at Griffon with a scrutinizing
gaze.
"Alpha Knight, you seem to have been targeting me."
Griffon had singled him out at the bidding, here in the dining room, and even the first tthey met.
Jackson had never seen Griffon before, let alone done anything to offend him. Why was the Knight Alpha so
focused on him? Perhaps...did he think Jackson was a threat? Something flashed in Griffon's eyes, but it was

"I was just afraid that you would be fooled."
"Fooled in what way?" Jackson asked.
Griffon didn't reply, and his expression remained neutral.
Jackson knew he had asked the right question when Griffon didn't have a response. Just what was going on here?
Was Griffon's issue with Jackson...or with Taya?
"I'm afraid you've misunderstood. I've known Ms. Palmer for many years, and | know her well. She has no reason
to lie to me."
He emphasized the last sentence as if he was talking to himself.
In the past, when she knelt at the door of the Sterling pack manor and begged him to cout and meet her,
he'd been annoyed at her and embarrassed for her. Then, after he'd discovered information about her that made
him think she was dishonest, he'd completely ignored her and pretended she didn't exist.
But after these few days of spending twith her, he didn't think Taya was the person he'd thought she was
five years ago.
Jackson's words made a trace of anger appear on Griffon's face, and his eyes darkened this his wolf's, his brows
furrowing.
