Chapter 504 Unshakable Resolve
Tessa''s fingertip hovered over the Moonstone diagram in the digital Codex, a
determined glint shing in her eyes. "No matter how hard it is, I will get the
Moonstone and break the Bloodbound.
Once the curse was gone, she could finally be with Landon without reservation.
She could meet his family his pack, and be marked by him-openly, proudly.
Without dy, she activated the Lightwing Order''s intelligencework and
dispatched their most elite scouts to infiltrate Eclipse Hollow in search of the
Moonstone.
With hope on the horizon, Tessa''s mood lifted.
By day, she remained fully engaged at TS Entertainment, overseeing the Avery
Band''s concert preparations. She also monitored Ysabel''s album production and
coordinated resources for Camille''s film project.
By night, she returned to the Wisteria Apartment and resumed her work with
Emma, diving deeper into the Codex of the Wolf to uncover more secrets about
the Bloodbound.
Meanwhile, Landon had his hands full with his daily duties and the ongoing
absorption of the Morrigan Group.
They were both busy, only able to see each other at night.
But they understood-each carried their own mission. Growing side by side meant
more than constantpanionship.
Back in Yalvaria, news of Tessa''s decision to pursue a dual degree at Werewolf
Navoris Hospital and Navoris University rattled Samuel.
"Tessa, what''s that supposed to mean?"
He had flown in from Yalvaria just to confront her, and now he stood in her office.
"What are you talking about?"
"Don''t y dumb with me. You promised Michael you''d go to the Werewolf
Medical Organization! And even if you weren''t going into medicine, fine-but now
that you are, why note to Yalvaria?"
"Samuel, I never promised to go to the Werewolf Medical Organization. At most, I
said I''d consider it. And just because I''m studying medicine doesn''t mean I have
to go to Yalvaria, does it?"
"That''s not the same thing! At the Organization, you could aplish so much
more. Are you really nning to settle for just being a regr doctor?"
With her talent, she was clearly meant for research.
"Samuel, this is my decision. I want to stay here."
"What decision? Let''s be honest, this is all because of Landon!" Samuel shot
back, frustrated. "Tessa, seriously-yeah, werewolves live longer than humans.
And with your awakened White Wolf, maybe you''ll live an extra hundred years.
But your best years are now. Don''t waste them on romance."
Tessa was speechless.
"Samuel, you really overestimate Yalvaria''s medical scene."

"I''m not exaggerating. It''s just the truth. Whether you admit it or not, that won''t
change.
"Look, you barelye back at all. I don''t want to argue
over this."
Samuel let out a heavy sigh.
And right then, Michael showed up himself.
Samuel''s phone rang. He picked it up.
"What? Where are you?"
"I''m downstairs at TS Entertainment. Come get me-they won''t let me in," Michael
said, clearly annoyed.
Wherever he went, he was used to being a big shot.
But here? He couldn''t even get past the front door.
"You''re not half-asleep right now, are you?"
"Samuel, don''t test me. I''m in a foul mood. Don''t make it worse." Michael''s prized
apprentice was slipping away. She was supposed to be his sessor-how could
this be happening?
Samuel nced at Tessa. "Michael''s downstairs. You talk to him."
This was going to hit Michael hard. He''d always wanted Tessa as his sessor.
Tessa rubbed her temples.
Why were they all showing up now?
And what did they think they could change?
She had already made her decision. And she wasn''t going to change it.
