Chapter 225 You Are Overthinking
+ Pearls
Ysabel was beyond frustrated. She couldn''t understand how things had spiraled out of control like this.
She had grown up under her family''s overprotective care.
If it hadn''t been for her strong protests, she probably would''ve had a werewolf warrior apanying her to and from school every day.
Although she knew her family''s actions were all out of concern and protection for her, this excessive protection felt like an invisible shackle, stripping away her right to choose freely and preventing her from pursuing the life she truly wanted.
It wasn''t that she didn''t want to resist. She had originally nned to wait until after high school, pick a college far from Navoris, and escape her father''s control. Then she could do whatever she wanted, chase her dream of music, and enter the entertainment industry.
But this suddenly viral video hadpletely messed up her ns.
Ysabel asked, troubled, "Uncle Landon, do you really think my dad will listen to me? You know how stubborn he is. The men of the Thorne family are so obsessed, they won''t listen to anyone else."
That''s your problem. I have things to do, so I''m leaving Landon said,pletely indifferent to his niece''s
Worries
Today, Ysabel couldn''t meet Tessa, so Tessa would have time to spend with him instead.
Seeing Landon leave quickly, Ysabel called out, "Uncle Landon, Tessie is waiting for me at Wisteria Apartment. You can go with her to Camille''s movie premiere instead. I don''t want her going alone. I''m worried someone might bully her."
Landon stopped in his tracks, a smile tugging at his lips "Oh, I seel Since you want me to go so badly, then I''ll go. With that, he hurried off even faster.
Ysabel''s heart sank. She desperately wanted to go herself, but the thought of her father returning made her realize she couldn''t.
After leaving the hospital, Tessa returned to Wisteria Apartment and received a box sent by Camille.
When she opened it, inside was a ck dress, simple in design, but its quality was unmistakable.
There was also a note on top of the box.
Tessa, I specially bought this dress for you from abroad. You have to wear it, or our friendship will be over!"
The note had a file ghost face drawn on the back.
Tessa was speechless but still took the ''dress out. After changing into it and letting her hair down, she heard a knock on the door and hurried to open it, thinking it was Ysabel,
She didn''t expect to find Landon standing outside.

"Mr. Thorne, what are you doing here? Sorry. I''ve already made ns with Ysabel today, so I can''t join you for dinner.
Landon leaned against the wall, effectively trapping her between the wall and his arms.
"Tessa, am Ist on the list of people you know?"
"Of course not. Clearly, you''re overthinking this. How could you best?"
"Let''s hope I''m just overthinking. You look beautiful today."
The sudden change of topic caught her off guard. Under his intense gaze, Tessa felt her heartbeat race and suddenly became dry-mouthed.
She licked her lips.
"Mr. Thorne...
Before Tessa could finish her sentence, she smelled the pinewood pheromones emanating from him.
When she looked up, her eyes met his brown ones, filled with desire.
Tessa froze for a moment before Landon pulled her into his arms. His strong arm locked around her soft body, and he lowered his head, brushing his lips lightly over hers-both forceful and tender, as if dering some kind of ownership.
"No matter what you wear, to me, it''s all too tempting
Tessa was speechless.
So, is it my fault for being so beautiful? That the Alpha of the Nightshade Pack always loses control like this?
Seeing Tessa''s expression, Landon chuckled. "Ysabel has something to do, so she can''t go with you to the premiere. I''ll go with you instead."
His words left no room for refusal.
