her grandfather had been eagerly
The elders of the Thorne family also called Landon, asking him to bring Ysabel back early to help prepare for Christmas.
During breakfast, Ysabel keptining.
She really didn''t want to go back so soon.
She finally got out for a bit of course she wanted to enjoy herself a little longer.
Before parting, Ysabel reminded Tessa repeatedly, "Tessa, you have to remember if Avery Bandes back, you must invite me to dinner with them!"
"Mm. Don''t worry. Once they''re back, I''ll call you."
Tessa was already preparing tounch her entertainmentpany. In the future, Ysabel would be considered one of Avery Band''s juniors. It wouldn''t hurt for them to get familiar.
Miracle would also be teaching Ysabel a few things about singing.
After breakfast, everyone went their separate ways.
Landon personally drove Tessa back to the Sinir family estate.
At the gate, Tessa asked, "Want toe in?" He hadn''t seen her grandfather in a while, after all.
"I''lle by in a few days to visit him. Help me say hi for now."
"Okay."
Just as Tessa was about to get out of the car, Landon grabbed her wrist and pulled her into a hug before letting her go.
"Go on in."
The thought of parting from her again made him reluctant.
Tessa leaned in and gave him a kiss on the corner of his lips. "See you next time." Only after watching her walk inside did Landon finally start the car and drive away. Inside the Sinir estate, Tessa walked into the living room and saw Cedric ying chess with her grandfather.
She knew Cedric had been practically living at the officetely, working nonstop on the Ster Mines case - a mineral vein that stretched across the Frostmoon, Iron, and Ivory Packs. It contained rare ores that could be used to forge silver- engraved wolf daggers, enough to arm a medium-sized pack for the next 14:01 Sun, 25 May

twenty years.
As the alpha of Frostmoon Pack, Cedric had to fight tooth and nail in the tri-pack negotiations to win the best share for his people.
Now that Christmas was around the corner and the Werewolf Council was going
on break, he finally had the chance toe home and spend the holidays with family.
Hearing footsteps, the old man looked up. When he saw Tessa, he immediately stood up.
"Our Tessa''s back! Why were you gone so long?" he grumbled with obvious affection.
The older he got, the more he wanted the kids close by. He knew it was selfish, but he just couldn''t help it.
"Grandpa, I was only gone for three days." She''d originally nned to stay in Falindale for a week, but once Landon showed up, she returned early with him.
"Only three days? Felt more like forever!"
Tessa nodded politely toward Cedric.
He got up from the couch too. Seeing how much she''d grown, he couldn''t help but sigh. "Our Tessa really is all grown up."
This little sister of his had always been quiet and reserved - not as lively as Winona - but she saw things more clearly than most.
"You two haven''t seen each other in a while. Spend some time catching up."
Just then, the old man''s phone rang. He stepped into his study to take the call, leaving Cedric and Tessa alone.
"Did everything go okay in Falindale?" Cedric asked the moment they sat down. Tessa wasn''t great at small talk. She simply nodded.
no matter what, he''s sill our father. I just hope "Tessa, we''re family. I know what Dad did was wrong, but no matter what, he''s still our father. I just hope
you can-"
Tessa frowned slightly.
So this was why Cedric hade home? To lecture her?
"I know." She had her own judgment about how to handle things.
Cedric went on. "Christmas ising. He''s been alone all this time... I was
thinking of letting hin. ome home for the holiday. You don''t mind, right?"
Tessa frowned again. "Does Grandpa know about this?"
