chapter12
I had thought that Roman was familiar with Griffon, not that it was Preston who had introduced them.
It seemed that Roman’s plan wasn’t just to take me to meet a few friends. He also wanted to talk business with Griffon.
However, I wasn’t too worried, since discussing whatever the project was would take time. That meant I still had a chance to figure out how to get away. With this in mind, my tensed body began to relax.
But as I breathed a sigh of relief, Roman suddenly raised his chin and said, “Drink it.”
Damn, I couldn’t play dumb anymore. So I picked up the glass and drank it with one gulp.
I seldom drank alcohol. Griffon didn’t like the smell of it, so I did not drink at all.
Instead of just drinking the wine down, I managed to choke on it, not used to the taste of any alcohol. Tears streamed down my face. Roman saw I was choking and held me in his arms, patting my back to help me breathe.
Griffon’s cold gaze fell on the hand that was holding me.
Through my teary eyes, I sensed Griffon’s killing intent in his eyes.
Finally, his wolf was showing a possessive streak toward me. There was hope…
“You may be younger than me, but you look older than me. If I don’t call you ma’am, what else can I call you?”
“You…”
The woman was forced into silence. She stomped her foot and turned around, pulling at Preston’s sleeve and acting cute.
I was surprised she felt comfortable enough in a room of male shifters to act this way.
“Preston, look at him. How can he say such mean things to me? Let’s go.”
