Chapter 139
After checking in with the receptionist, I went to the Alpha’s office.
Jackson was rubbing his forehead, looking extremely tired.
I knocked on the door lightly. “Alpha Sterling.”
Jackson glanced at me. “You’ve come.”
In the past, when the MPC entertained visiting pack leaders, they would directly arrange for them to eat, drink, and have fun.
However, if Jackson wanted me to be his personal assistant, I would have to ask him what he needed me to do, since this was
outside of the norm.
Jackson lowered his hands from his forehead, then sat back in his chair and looked at me. “There’s nothing to arrange right at
this moment. Just help me make coffee in my meeting later.”
“Yes, Alpha.”

After saying that, Taya left. Jackson looked at her back and gradually became lost in thought.
Watching her walk away gave him a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen her many times, watched her walk many times. “I can’t
remember. My head hurts...” he whispered to himself.
He shook his head and picked up his phone to send a message to Eric.
Eric answered back right away. [Why do you have a headache again? Do you remember something from before?]
Jackson typed back: [No, I don’t remember anything specific. It’s just that when I saw someone, it felt very familiar, and my head
started to ache.]
[Who did you see?] Eric immediately asked.
Jackson didn’t want to reply to that specific question. He shouldn’t have said he saw someone; he should have known Eric would
want to know who it was. But the headaches made it harder to think clearly.
Somehow, Jackson had always felt that if Eric knew about the headaches that happened whenever he saw Taya, Taya would be
in danger.
