    By the time Tessa and her group arrived, tens of thousands of fans were already lining up outside.


    Thankfully, Avery had arranged for them to use the VIP entrance,


    Otherwise, even one of the four powerhouses apanying Tessa could have thrown the entire venue into chaos.


    "Hello, I''m Avery''s manager. Are you Ms. Tessa Sinir?" the manager approached Tessa after matching her with the photo on her phone.


    Tessa looked at the woman in front of her-an easygoing female werewolf in her thirties.


    "Yes, I''m Tessa. Thanks foring to get us."


    The manager smiled warmly. "Not at all. Ms. Sinir, the members talk about you all the time-especially Avery. He really likes you."


    Avery was usually cold and dismissive to everyone, but whenever he brought up Tessa, there was always a rare gentleness in his tone.


    "Mhm." Tessa didn''t respond beyond that.


    The manager couldn''t help but nce at the man beside Tessa but quickly looked away.


    He was handsome, sure-but the sheer dominance he exuded was overwhelming. It made her instinctively


    uneasy.


    Not just him-the three other male werewolves with Tessa also carried a presence that was impossible to ignore. She might not have known who they were, but she could tell they were not to be messed with.


    And anyone who could walkfortably among them... definitely wasn''t an ordinary person.


    Years in the werewolf entertainment industry had sharpened the manager''s people skills. Her attitude toward Tessa grew even more respectful.


    "Ms. Sinir, pleasee with me. Avery already arranged seats for you."


    She led them to the VIP section inside the stadium, where the five others were seated first. Then, she brought Tessa to the very best spot in the entire arena.


    "This seat was specially reserved by Avery. Even though you never came to the previous concerts, the members always saved this spot for you."


    It had be something of a tradition at Avery Band''s shows.


    Ysabel sneaked a nce at Uncle Landon.


    A man treating Tessa like this... how did Uncle Landon feel about it?

    The manager instinctively looked at Landon as she asked.


    "I''ll head over for a bit," Tessa said, standing up.


    By now, most of the seats in the stadium were filled. The concert was about to begin.


    As soon as the words left her mouth, a subtle wave of pressure emanated from Landon, and the surrounding temperature seemed to plummet ten degrees.

    "Is it just me, or did it suddenly get really cold? Is the stadium''s AC busted or something?" Cameron rubbed his arms with an exaggerated shiver.


    He knew full well it was Landon''s emotional shift, but that didn''t stop him from cracking a joke.


    "I don''t think it''s the cold. I think you''ve got a death wish," Hudson said tly. "Go ahead," Landon said calmly.


    Though clearly unhappy about her going to meet another man, he still gave her permission with surprising


    grace.


    Cameron and Hudson exchanged a look-they hadn''t expected Landon to be this lenient when it came to


    Tessa.


    Tessa didn''t think too much of it.


    Seeing her heading backstage, Ysabel stood up too.


    "Tessa, can Ie with you? I really want to meet the other members of Avery Band. I''m a huge fan!" Ysabel said excitedly.


    "Come on, let''s go." Tessa had no objections. It was just a quick visit, nothing serious.


    Ysabel grabbed her arm happily. "Tessie, you''re the best!"


    "Be careful," Nathaniel said from behind.


    Truthfully, he wanted to follow them backstage too-mostly because he didn''t trust letting Ysabel go alone. But with so many of them already making a scene, he figured it was better to hold back.


    Tessa and Ysabel made their way to the backstage area.


    Only to findplete chaos waiting for them.
