NovelStartChapter 299 The Hunter Still Hunts +8 Pearls The moment Tessa recalled the signal from Lightwing Order earlier, that man's cold, brooding face flashed through her mind.
"What is it? Did he actually reach out to you?" Samuel asked, visibly uncy at her reaction.
"It's fine. I can handle it." No matter what that man was trying to pull, she could deal with it.
Tessa had never been someone who ran from danger.
"Tessa, cto the werewolf medical organization with me. That's the only place he wouldn't dare touch. Everywhere else is dangerous." "Samuel, I told you-I'm not afraid of him. Stop worrying about me," Tessa said calmly. "I'm not the sTessa I used to be." No one could bully her anymore.
Still, Samuel couldn't relax.

"Alright, get going already. Otherwise, your plane's going to leave without you." And planes didn't wait.
"You... no matter what happens, remember-you need to take care of yourself. If something goes wrong, call me. I'll cback, even if it kills me." "Please. Just go. I should be the one saving you, not the other way around," she shot back with a smirk. Samuel glared at her.
"Tessa, you're seriously heartless. I'm here worried sick about you, and you say stuff like that? Do you even have a conscience?" Unbelievable. They were all tearing their hair out worrying about her, and she didn't even seem to care.
In the end, Samuel still left reluctantly.
When Tessa turned around, she saw Landon waiting for her. He'd just finished parking the car and was walking up.
"He gone?" Landon didn't hide the fact that he minded Samuel. After all, he and Tessa had gone through a lot together. Anyone would be uneasy about that kind of bond.
"Yeah. He's gone." "Alright, let's go." Landon took her hand and started walking.

After spending so much twith him, Tessa could tell-he was definitely jealous right now. She let out a soft laugh and squeezed his hand. "Samuel's just a friend. That's all." The kind of friend who would give his life for hers-and vice versa.
"But you're not," she added.
Landon's face lit up at her words. "Then who am I to you?" Tessa hesitated for a second, then looked into his hopeful eyes. Fighting through her embarrassment, she murmured quickly and quietly, "Boyfriend." Her voice was barely audible-but Landon, with his werewolf hearing, caught every syllable.
He couldn't help but laugh out loud, grinning from ear to ear as he guided her into the car, absolutely elated.

On the way back, Tessa kept staring out the window at the snow-covered streets, unconsciously twisting the silver ring on her finger. The ssilver ring that man had forced on her-to track her, to contact her whenever he wanted.
Back then, she hadn't been nearly as strong as she was now. To escape his twisted control and obsessive possessiveness, she'd faked her own death.
Pulling that off had taken intricate planning and a unique ability passed down through her werewolf bloodline-one that let her suppress all signs of life. That ancient gift had fooled him. Fooled even his wolves.
For years since, she'd tried everything to remove or destroy the ring-but nothing worked.
Thankfully, the ring had remained silent all this time. She'd hoped he believed she really was dead.
But today, it had started glowing again.
That meant... he might have sensed her.
That obsessive man, she thought, of course he wouldn't believe I'm dead so easily.
He's still trying to find me...
