บท 172: Permit him

ALPHA MAVERICK'S POV

I looked at the woman that I had chosen for myself to spend my life with, rejecting my thoughtful gift and running away as if rather than giving her the family heirloom, I was giving her some kind of poison to drink.

'I told you it wouldn't work,' Reaper said, and I scratched my head.

I thought he was just a wolf and wouldn't know much about human emotions, but who would've thought he would be the right one and I would end up making a fool out of myself?

I don't understand, though.

If I had given this dagger to any other she-wolf I knew, they would have jumped in delight. Why was Valencia's reaction so different? It was like she was afraid of getting tied to me.

Did she not feel anything for me? 

It's been a couple of days since I made a trip to her apartment despite my busy schedule so I could see her and propose the idea of joining the Alphas Meet as my partner.
