Chapter 269 Tensions at the Gate


    Hearing that name, Tessa more or less knew what was going on.


    "Alright, I got it."


    "Do we need to change locations?"


    "No need. I actually want to see what this Evan is trying to do,"

    “Phantom, no matter what, these people aren''t to be messed with. I think you should stay offline for now."


    As the alpha of the Thornbane Pack, showing up so brazenly at the headquarters


    of the Lightwing Order- wasn''t that just to drag Phantom out?


    There were far too many people who wanted to catch Phantom.


    They were constantly on guard but never truly safe. There was nothing they could do.


    "It''s fine. It''ste. Get some rest. This isn''t anything serious."


    It wasn''t arrogance. If she pushed her wolf powers to the limit, she could even hold her own against Landon.


    Evan was nothing more than someone Landon had already beaten. She didn''t need to worry about him at all.


    At that same moment, Evan stood outside the Lightwing Order''s headquarters, frowning as he eyed the shabby courtyard in front of him.


    "You''re telling me the strongest hacker in the werewolf world-Phantom-is in this dump?"


    Even now, Evan still couldn''t bring himself to believe this rundown ce was the Lightwing Order''s base.


    "Alpha, this really is their headquarters. I only stumbled across the intel by sheer luck," his subordinate replied.


    If the source hadn''t been so reliable, he wouldn''t have believed it either. Everyone


    in the Lightwing Order was worth millions. And the senior members? They were the kind of people every werewolf elite wanted to recruit.


    "Let''s go check it out."


    Evan had just stepped forward to investigate when Nathaniel arrived with a squad of Nightshade Pack werewolf warriors.


    Seeing Evan here, he frowned. "Evan, using a business inspection as an excuse


    to sneak back to Navoris is one thing, but what the hell are you doing here in the middle of the night?"


    Evan froze, warily eyeing Nathaniel.


    He''d only just received news about Phantom and hadn''t even had a chance to look around yet. Now

    "Mr. Frost, I couldn''t sleep and decided to go for a walk. Strange running into you here, though."


    Evan kept his tone polite.

    The blood pact he''d made with Landon five years ago bound him tightly. If he broke it, every werewolf in Montedra would turn on him and the Thornbane Pack until they were wiped out.


    So he had to exploit a loophole in the contract,ing to Navoris under the guise of expanding business.


    To avoid suspicion, he hadn''t brought many people with him. Even his beta had stayed behind to watch. over the pack.


    But Nathaniel had arrived with a full team of trained Nightshade Pack warriors. While none of them were his match individually, if a fight broke out, it would cause a hugemotion.


    He had finally found Phantom-he couldn''t risk letting her slip away....


    To the man who had lost to his own alpha, Nathaniel showed no mercy. "Evan, sorry to say, but this ce caught our alpha''s interest. Don''t show your face around here again. Our alpha hates you."


    "You-!" Evan''s subordinate couldn''t take it anymore and stepped forward.


    "Nathaniel, we found this ce first. Don''t push it!"


    Nathaniel didn''t even spare him a nce.


    "Just because you found it first, you think it''s yours? Ask your alpha if he dares to say that in front of ours."


    Nathaniel was a diehard Phantom fan. The moment his team traced her to this ce, he had personally volunteered toe.


    Good thing he got here in time-otherwise Evan would''ve taken his idol away.


    Evan''s expression darkened.


    He was still the proud alpha of the Thornbane Pack. Being provoked like this by a beta-his pride as an alpha had been trampled.


    Tonight, he had to teach Nathaniel a lesson.


    Evan''s pupils narrowed into dangerous slits. Dark red pheromones surged toward Nathaniel like a tide.


    The air filled with a sharp, metallic, sulfuric scent-Thornbane Pack''s signature aggressive alpha pheromones.


    Nathaniel didn''t dare let his guard down. Even if Evan had lost to Landon, his rank was still higher than his own. A faint golden glow spread around Nathaniel as he activated his wolf powers to resist the attack.


    Rank mattered. Even though Nathaniel was going all out, he was clearly struggling. Sweat beaded on his forehead, and his fur bristled under the pressure.


    The lower-ranked werewolf warriors behind him had already copsed, coughing up blood.


    This couldn''t go on much longer...
