Goodbye My Alpha (Taya and Griffon)

chapter40

My phone vibrated on my nightstand, waking me up.

I peeled open my tired eyes, struggled to pick up the phone, and answered.

"Baby." Roman's voice came from the other end of the line. "I heard you had a high fever yesterday. How are you now?"

Good lord, this guy was strange. Did his wolf take over sometimes and make him forget things? We'd already been over the fact that I'd had a high fever and gone to the hospital. Plus, why did he care? He'd only wanted to sleep with me, so why the questions about my health?

Could it be...he knew I was dying?

I managed to shut that thought away and replied calmly, "I'm fine."

"Okay, good, good. That's great," Roman said mechanically. Then his tone changed, grew more eager. "So, did you finish that thing?"

And there it was. His real reason for calling me.

I sat straight up in bed, supported

The excuse I'd used to get away from Roman wasn't one I could do...and the last thing I was going to do was actually talk to Griffon about Roman, I had no videos or pictures, and no way would Griffon ever listen to me and give the Starke Rack the Westen City project.

All I had to do was delay with Roman until after Harper's wedding was over.

Then, I would give my life in exchange for peace for the rest of Harper's life.

Roman seemed impatient. "The bidding conference starts on tenth

Shit. Harper's wedding was on the ninth of next month.

I had wanted to wait until Harper got mated before going to die with Roman.
