PopularNovelChapter 377 Late Night Texts and Lingering Tension When Tessa called, Lina was lounging in her room with a face mask on. The faint scent of herbal essential oils lingered in the afr-plants that had a calming effect on werewolves. She put Tessa on speaker, still adjusting the mask over her face.
"You seriously don't trustto handle it?" She tapped the speaker and kept smoothing the mask over her face.
"I trust you," Tessa replied without hesitation. When it cto Lina, she didn't have a shred of doubt.
"But Tessa, we're talking about Nathan here. He's the alpha of the Yalvaria Frost Pack. You tied him up- what's the plan? If he decides to cafter us, we're screwed." "Don't worry. I've got this." Nathan might be a pain in the ass, but he wasn't beyond handling.
Besides, she'd traded a few blows with Nathan before slipping him the drug.
They hadn't used their wolf powers during the brief scuffle, but Tessa knew enough..
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA wolf's spirit was deeply linked to the strength of their human form-the stronger the spirit, the more powerful the body.
And just from that quick fight, she could already tell-Nathan had gotten weaker over the years. She, on the other hand, had fully bonded with the White Wolf. She had nothing to fear.
"Alright, then what now? He's still tied up in my place," Lina said, clearly uneasy. She hadn't touched him after dragging him back-just left him restrained exactly as he was.
"Leave him like that. We'll deal with it tomorrow." Nathan's father was obsessive-practically worshipped the alpha bloodline. If anything happened to Nathan in Navoris, he'd ccharging in with Frost Pack warriors at his back.
That's the only reason Tessa hadn't gone for the kill.
But this time... she really had been tempted. Nathan had crossed a line- threatening her grandfather and Landon.
And Landon... the way he acted when he dropped her off earlier-something was bothering him.
She knew exactly what he was thinking. But she couldn't tell him about Nathan. She didn't want to drag him into it." Nathan may have lost his edge, but he was still an alpha. If things got out of hand and he pulled out forbidden magic, even Landon might not make it out in one piece.
And if Nathan got hurt by Landon, his father wouldn't stop at revenge- He'd start a war between their packs. Maybe even spark a full-blown conflict between Solara and Montedra. A war between wolves.
Tessa couldn't let that happen.
1/2 - Chapter 377 Late Night Texts and Lingering Tension But thinking about how Landon had reacted... only made her more unsettled. I didn't realize how much hi means tountil now.
He didn't even say much. Just stayed quiet. But that was enough to send her into a spiral. That wasn't like her. She was usually calm. Rational.
When a werewolf's emotions got out of control, instincts took over. She knew she had to get herself under control.
After showering and getting into bed, she grabbed her phone and typed out a quick text to Landon. "You seemed off earlier. Is something bothering you?" Back at the Thorne family estate, Landon had just finished his shower and was in his study going over pack reports.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBy the the returned to the bedroom and saw her message, it was already past one in the morning.
She probably thinks I'm ignoring her. It wasn't on purpose-but he couldn't help wondering. Did she overthink it? Was she waiting for a reply? It was past two now. She was probably asleep. He hesitated for a moment, then finally texted back.
"No, you're overthinking it." But after he hit send, there was nothing. No reply from her.
This time, it was Landon who couldn't sleep.
"Just got out of the shower. Didn't see your message," he added quickly, trying to explain.
Still... another thirty minutes passed. No response.
Thinking back on how ridiculous he was acting, Landon let out a day! eT m laugh. What the hell am I doing?
One text from her, and now he was the one wide awake, staring at his screen like an idiot. I've completely lost 1. it.
