Chapter 53
I didn't want to be played by Roman any longer, nor did I want to involve Harper.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Therefore, I had no other choice but to kill him.
I finished crushing the sleeping pills, picked up the bottle of wine I'd brought with me, filled the wineglass, and hid the dagger under a pillow on the bed. Then I turned off the light and sat on the sofa, waiting for Roman to arrive.
Twenty minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
Despite putting on a calm, brave face, my hands trembled.
I was nervous and scared. But I had made it this far, there was no choice but to keep going through with my plan.
Putting down the bottle in my hand, I took a deep breath to attempt to composure my shaking hands and nerves. I walked to the door and slowly opened it.
The man at the door wore a gold-bronze mask, covering his whole face.
As soon as I saw him, I knew something was wrong.
I tried to close the door, but he put his hand on it, his wolf strength too much for me to push back against.
He forced his way in, then turned off all the lights.
The room instantly fell into darkness. My night vision was no match for a wolf shifter's night vision; he had a clear advantage. I could only see his dark figure from the light outside the window. My body shook uncontrollably. The man was not Roman!
Actually...based on his height and build, he looked a little like Griffon.
However, Griffon smelled faintly of pine, while this person had a strong, cedarwood smell.
My eyes adjusted to the darkness a little more, and I was able to make out a bit of his appearance.
Griffon had always been meticulous about his appearance, making sure his hair was flawlessly styled, only wearing the finest business suits as befitting of an Alpha of his power and stature. This man had messy hair and wore a white shirt and brown pants, casual clothes that Griffon would never wear.
Lastly, there was a tattoo of a ferocious dragon on his collarbone.
Griffon would never get a tattoo.
If it wasn't Roman or Griffon...who was this and what did they want from me?!
