The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover

Chapter 153

Before leaving, Griffon issued a warning.

“Just because Jackson broke off the mating agreement doesn’t mean that the Sterling pack will allow him to do so. He’ll be my brother–in–law sooner or later. Don’t even think about getting him to fight against the whole pack for you.”

I wasn’t sure if I was afraid of him or if I was fearful that I wouldn’t be able to control my feelings for him.
