The Alpha King’s Human Mate Chapter 70

Chapter 70

“Things go away to return, brightened for the passage.” AR. Ammons

The next time I woke up, morning sunlight was filtering through the room. Groggily, I rubbed my eyes and stretched my

sore muscles. They had felt like jelly last night, but today, they felt painfully stiff.

At least I don’t have another training session until tomorrow.

I turned my head to block out the sun and my eyebrows furrowed in confusion when I caught sight of Griffin’s side of the

bed. It wasn’t surprising to see that it was empty ~ there were very few mornings when I woke up to Griffin.

No, the surprising part was the blank paper lying on his pillow. Did he leave me a note?

I flipped the paper over, my breath catching in my throat. It wasn’t a note but a sketch. Of me. A naked sketch of me.

It was done from the waist up with my bare breasts on display and my head thrown back. Chapter 70 Did he draw this

than I’d ever felt, there was no mistaking the long hair or the freckles

on her face. It was me. .*

“Of course it’s you,” Griffin said, walking over with the tray and setting it on the nightstand. “So, do you like it?”

Griffin was smiling as he said it, but there was something vulnerable and open about his expression. As if he was offering

me a part of himself and waiting to see what I’d do with it.

“Griffin, it’s beautiful,” I replied. “Is this last night?”

Relief seemed to flicker through his eyes and he nodded. “The way you came last night has been practically engrained in

my brain,” he said, “I woke up this morning itching to capture it on paper.”

A blush swept over my face and I looked down at the drawing again. Was this really what I looked when I orgasmed? It
