The Alpha King’s Human Mate

Chapter 62 Chapter 62

After several minutes of cuddling, a quick shower, and some lotion for my burning ass, it was finally time for Griffin’s meeting. After my shower, I changed into nice jeans and a pretty purple blouse. I still felt underdressed, but Griffin

assured me that the dress code was casual.

Well, what he’d actually said was, You’re my Queen. Nobody cares what you wear, and if they look at you too long, I’l kill

them.

I figured that was basically the same thing. (2 At least he was dressed just as casually as I was.

“So, what’s the meeting about? Do you know?” I asked as we walked toward the meeting room. Griffin’s long stride was

almost impossible to keep up with, and with his hand in mine, it felt like he was almost dragging me along.

“One Alpha has become aggressive towards his neighboring pack,” Griffin told me, “He’s been getting bold. The council wants to discuss possible methods for dealing with him.” Griffin seemed to notice that Chapter 62

he was practically dragging me and slowed down.

Griffin hadn’t told me a lot, but according to him, he spent of these meetings with his council. The council was made up

of a small group of experienced wolves that provided Griffin with information about disputes of the werewolf world. They

also used their experience to advise him on possible solutions to these disputes. (7)

While my dad’s pack didn’t have a council, it did have elders – and Griffin’s council sounded similar.

Griffin’s pace slowed down even more as we approached a large mahogany door.

Griffin turned to me, cupping my face with one of his large hands. “Are you sure you really want to sit through a boring

meeting?” he asked, “These aren’t always brief.”

“The subject matter doesn’t sound very boring,” I said, “Besides, it can’t be more boring than waiting for you in an

empty bedroom.”

“If you say so, little fox.” When Griffin removed his hand from my face to open the door, I could actually feel the loss of

heat.

God, am I that addicted to his touch?

I didn’t have too much time to ponder that – Griffin pushed the door open, and my breath caught in my throat. Chapter
