[GRANT]
The werewolf king's words were cruel.
Grant was trying to get used to them, but they were not getting any easier. It was as if he were stuck in one place where even reprieve was never possible. He had not wanted to be a part of this wedding.
And now that he was, he had hoped the king would understand him, only for him to come to the king and be given even harder tasks and the kinds of things that shattered his heart in all the ways to hell.
This wasn't part of the agreement.
But was there a solid agreement between a king and his enforcer that went beyond the responsibilities that had been handed over? They were not friends, and Grant was slowly understanding that.
"Your majesty, please. I'm begging you to reconsider. I'll handle the security during the ceremony, handle even the rogues. I'll do anything but…" Grant trailed off in defeat. He could see the way that the king was staring at him in disappointment.
