Chapter 25
I felt the blood rush from my face, leaving me lightheaded. I quickly raised my hand and covered where Roman had kissed. "No, we haven't done anything." "Do you think I'll believe you?"
He looked at me as if I were a dead person, someone who didn't matter, who barely existed.
Yet...why did he care if I slept with Roman then?
My knees trembled, but I still forced myself to explain, the words tumbling out of my mouth. "Believe it or not, I've never slept with him."
Griffon gave that sneer of a smile again. "I'll know for sure after I check."
He suddenly tore off my dress.
Frightened, I covered my body with my arms. Part of me hated him for this, for degrading me this way, but the other part of me the part that loved him deeply-was elated at the fact that he cared if someone else had touched me. Cared so much that it brought out the possessive Alpha wolf.
Before I could ask what he was going to do, he parted my thighs.
I grabbed at Griffon's shoulder and cursed him for being a bastard, tried to squirm away from him.
However, he didn't seem to notice.
"Griffon, are you crazy? Let go of me!"
I grabbed his shoulders tightly, full of shame and anger and desire, my fingernails almost digging into his flesh, but he refused to let go.
At least Andre wasn't in the car to see this.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Griffon was pulling at my panties, almost ripping them off, his eyebrows narrowing as he was confused about something.
"What the hell are you doing?"
I was furious, but his expression told me nothing.
His urgent and fierce movements seemed off, completely unlike when we had sex.
The look on his face was different now, and his brows were furrowed with a hint of anger.
When he got angry, he looked like this. I used to be very afraid of him when he looked like this, but now, I was having difficulty understanding him... "Griffon Knight!"
I called out to him, but he didn't respond. He continued to examine my body.
"You have no right to touch my body! You ended our contract!"
Griffon finally paused.
When he lifted his gaze, the corners of his eyes were crimson, like sparks in flames, scorching and intense as his wolf's rage simmered just below the surface. "You won't let me touch you just because you sold yourself to Roman?"
The word "sold" sliced through me.
Yes, I'd once sold myself to him. But stupidly, I'd thought that not taking a penny from him would change his impression of me.
But I never expected that he would still view me as a prostitute who could be bought and sold at will.
My soul ached as if thousands of needles pricked it, but I forced myself to smile.
"Alpha Knight."
I hooked my arms around his neck and choked out my next words.
"He bought me, so I can't let you touch me. Once a man has purchased something, no one else is to touch it. You taught me that rule. Have you forgotten?"
"What did you say?!" Griffon roared.
I raised my chin slightly, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "Actually, I lied to you just now. I already slept with Beta Starke a long time ago. We did it three times last night and two times today. Now that I'm his woman, you wouldn't want to do anything stupid now, would you, Alpha Knight?"
