Goodbye My Alpha (Taya and Griffon)

Jackson handed the plate of food to me. "I'll take you home after you eat something."

I didn't have much of an appetite, and the last thing I wanted to do was eat. But when he promised to take me home after I ate, I obediently took the plate. After breakfast, it took some effort to change into my clothes.

I'd worn a professional suit to attend the bidding conference yesterday, and thankfully, the loose-fitting trousers covered up my swollen legs.

After I changed, Jackson came in again as I was thinking about how to ask him to help me get downstairs. My legs were so stiff, I didn't think I'd be able to manage on my own. As if Jackson had read my mind, he walked over and gathered me up in his arms.

He took me by surprise, but he said lightly, "If you could leave on your own, you wouldn't have asked me to take you home."

I dipped my head, a bit embarrassed that he could see through me so easily.
