Chapter 81
[I’ll wait for half an hour.]
After sending this message, Greyson didn’t send anything else.
He’d given his final word, and it seemed that was that.
I wished I knew who he was in the wolf shifter hierarchy of things. Was he an Alpha who was used to having what he wanted when he wanted it? Or was he someone who was a
