Chapter 74: Just Like Roman

However beautiful the scene may have seemed — at least to Alaric — the moment of passion had reached a dangerous precipice.

Violet and Roman, completely overtaken by their desires, were preparing to cross the line.

Violet’s fingers were already working feverishly at Roman’s belt, while Roman tore his shirt off, his muscles taut with need.

Violet had just succeeded in slipping Roman’s belt free, her hands moving to tug down his zipper when the door suddenly burst open. All heads turned toward the sound, and for a fleeting moment, Alaric dared to hope it was Asher. But instead, it was Griffin, standing in the doorway with a stunned, almost dumbfounded expression.

The bond between the two cardinal alphas had always been rooted in a shared disdain for Roman’s more reckless tendencies. Closing the door behind him with a deliberate motion, Griffin stepped into the room, his movements slow and calculated.
