Griffin "Gruff" Wilkins was a man of few words, a trait he learned at a young age. He was the oldest in his family and learned real quick that if he opened his mouth, it was often shut with a fist or a belt. Therefore, he became a quiet protector rather than the loud-mouth like some of his brothers. After a failed marriage, he decided to focus just on his shop and himself, even if that meant still dipping into his ex-wife from time to time when he needed to get his rocks off. He wasn't looking for anything else until he found himself face to face with a woman who needed his help, the silent protector was back in full force. The only problem was that this woman came with enough baggage to open an airport, including two children, one of whom reminded him a lot of his younger self.
