    "Mr. Thorne?" Tessa tilted her head and looked at him in confusion, unsure what he meant by that question.


    "You keep saying you''ll handle your own problems. You never let me help. Have you never thought of me as someone you could rely on?" Landon finally voiced the question that had been weighing on his heart for a long time.


    Tessa froze for a second. She seemed to catch a sh of defeat in his eyes, and for a moment, she didn''t know what to say.


    But almost instantly, Landon returned to his usual self. “Sorry. I shouldn''t have said that to you."


    Landon had never lost control like this before.


    As the Alpha of the Nightshade Pack, Montedra''s most powerful ruler, he was always decisive and sharp, whether dealing with pack matters or facing enemies. Nothing ever fazed him.


    As the head of Thorne Corp, he was just as capable in the business world, alwaysposed and in control.


    But in front of Tessa, he lost that control.


    “I...” Tessa started to say something, but didn''t know how to exin what she was feeling.


    What happened five years ago had taught her one thing-no matter what, the only person she could truly depend on was herself.


    Even family bound by blood, even the closest friends, could walk away and betray her.


    That was why, after meeting Samuel in Falindale, she was taken to the hellish training camp, where she went through a full-scale transformation.


    There, she encountered many unbelievable things.


    Through countless rounds of extreme training, she finally awakened her wolf- Emma.


    Samuel, an advanced-level healer, understood her condition. He once exined that her body had been far too weak to handle the violent surge of power that came with a White Wolf''s awakening. That was why the awakening never happened before.


    But after the brutal training, her physical condition improved drastically. Her strength and endurance had reached unprecedented levels, enough to support coexisting with a powerful White Wolf.


    And so, Emma awakened naturally.


    Emma''s power merged perfectly with Tessa''s mind. Tessa could feel the wildness and force of the ancient and rare Wolf n surging inside her.


    After awakening Emma and gaining those abilities, Tessa had gotten used to relying only on herself.


    Seeing Tessa hesitate, Landon couldn''t help but sigh. "You really leave me with no way to deal with you."


    Tessa couldn''t help butfort him. "I''ve just gotten used to handling things on my own. It''s not that I don''t

    Two hourster, Ysabel''s examination was finished.


    Just like Tessa had sensed, it was only a surface injury, no bones were broken.


    But without a wolf, Ysabel''s body was already weaker than that of an awakened werewolf. She couldn''t heal on her own, so the pain wouldst much longer.


    "Alpha, Winona''s really disgusting. She tried to push Tessa, and Ysabel ended up falling instead," Nathaniel growled, his angry pheromones spreading through the room. He looked like he wanted to tear Winona


    apart.


    "You don''t need to get involved in this," Landon said.


    "But Alpha, she hurt Ysabel!"


    Landon shot him a look. Nathaniel shut his mouth.


    Ysabel spoke up, full of frustration. "Tessie, I think we really should teach Winona a lesson. Who knows what she''ll try next?"


    "Yeah. Don''t worry. Now that I know you''re okay, I''m in the mood to y with her," Tessa said, the corners of her lips lifting into a cold smirk. There was something wicked in her smile, charming, but bone-chilling.


    With fresh hatred added to old grudges, she wasn''t going to let Winona off the hook.
