The moment Ysabel spotted her, she rushed over.
82% Finished "Tessa! You're finally here! I missed you so much. First tI've ever hated being on break-I don't get to see you at all." School had been better. Back then, she could see Tessa every day. Now, just getting a glimpse of her felt impossible.
"Well, would you look at that," Nathaniel teased. "Ysabel actually misses school" Ysabel shot him a glare. "Nathaniel, mind your own business. What if I do miss school?" Just wait. Once she finished her college entrance exams, she was leaving New York. Then they'd be the ones scrambling just to see her.
Tessa sat down next to her. "Didn't we just see each other?" "I still missed you. Wantto cwith you to Falindale tomorrow? I've got nothing to do here, anyway." Tessa shook her head. "This trip isn't for fun. I've got things to take care of-it wouldn't be convenient to bring you. Next time, okay? I'll take you when I go back to visit." "Is it dangerous?" Ysabel asked, her brows furrowing in concern.
There had to be a reason Tessa didn't want to bring her. Dangerous was the only explanation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing how anxious she looked, Tessa gave her a smile. "Dangerous? Con, what kind of danger could a high school girl likepossibly get into? Don't worry." "But that's just it," Ysabel muttered. "You don't seem like a normal high school girl at all..." Nathaniel leaned back and sighed. "Finally. Our dear Ysabel's brain is working for once." Tessa? Normal? Not a chance.
"You're overthinking it." As Landon and Tessa took their seats, the waitstaff began bringing out dishes. The food had been ready for a while.
"Let's eat," Tessa said, steering the conversation away. This trip to Falindale was meant to settle old matters - there was no place in it for Ysabel.
Ysabel pouted but gave up. "Fine..." Midway through dinner, Cameron glanced over and asked, "Landon, you're really not going with her?" Given how protective Landon was, it was hard to believe he'd let Tessa face danger alone.
"No," Landon replied simply.

"..." Cameron didn't believe it—but Landon said nothing more.
"By the way, Evan's gone completely quiet," Nathaniel said, excitement in his voice. "He got wrecked by Shadow this time." "Yeah, it was bad," Hudson agreed. "I don't know what Evan did to tick off Shadow, but it's like he's being toyed with." "Think it's revenge?" Nathaniel asked. "Maybe it's because Evan stumbled on Wings of Light's main base last time? Could be Shadow paying him back." While the others continued chatting, Tessa remained quiet.
It didn't matter to her what Shadow's reasons were. Evan being silent just meant one less problem for her to deal with.
After dinner, Landon's driver took him and Tessa back to Wisteria Apartment.
Landon personally walked her to the door.
"Go in and get srest," she said. "No need to cto the train station tomorrow." She was taking the train to Falindale this time.
Compared to flying, she preferred trains-no delays, no sudden changes. Just steady, punctual travel.
"Alright. You rest too." Landon didn't ask to go upstairs.

He'd had a few drinks tonight. And if he stayed around her any longer, he wasn't sure he'd be able to let her 1. go.
But he hadn't forgotten-he still had her eighteenth birthday to plan. Her coming of age celebration. "Tessa..." She had just turned to head inside when he called out.
"What is-" She didn't even finish her sentence before he caught her hand and pulled her into his arms.
"Hurry up and grow up, will you?" he low and whispered, voice low and magnetic, sending henheart into overdrive. "I don't think I can wait much longer." He pressed a kiss to her forehead before finally letting go. "Go on. I'll stay here until I see you get in the elevator." "Okay."
Tessa turned and walked away, still looking calm and composed. But only she knew how wildly her heart was racing. 2/3 *82% 15:24 Wed, 21 May n.
