Filthy rich werewolves novel Chapter 152

"If you wish to put me on a pedestal and then let me fall, you don't have to go through so much trouble. I'm already miserable. I'm just a sanitation worker with little money to my name and I was kicked out of my pack. I no longer have my wolf.

Surely it doesn't mean that it will be as he said; that I stay by his side? But... can I live through that? All the pain I endured in prison, my near-death experience in there, and those nightmarish three years were all because of him.

Why? Why?

Grace questioned herself repeatedly as she tried to hold back the tears, but they flowed freely down her cheeks and acted as a catharsis.

Meeting Jay was like a fantastic dream and now, she had finally woken up from that dream.

But his game is still continuing…
