BossNovelChapter 602 The Tables Turn Just as Tessa picked up her fork at lunch, her phone rang. It was Landon.
"For the next few days, I'm assigning a few people to shadow you," he said, his voice brooking no argument "Don't pay them any mind-just treat them like air." He'd made the decision after much deliberation. With Nathan lurking in the shadows, there was no room for chance. Her safety had to cfirst.

Tessa put her phone down and walked straight to Michael's office. Just as she reached the door, she heard a heated conversation inside.
"Master, letgo with you to Yalvaria!" Samuel's voice was urgent. "Last tthey imprisoned you-who knows what they'll try next?" Michael sighed. "I'm going back to settle old debts. You followingwould only increase the danger." "But going alone..." "I'm going with you." Tessa pushed the door open, her tone calm but firm. "Master, this started because of me. There's no way I'm letting you face it alone." Michael frowned. "Absolutely not. The Yalvaria Council already sees you as a threat. If you go, they'll use any excuse to target you." "Then we face them together." She stepped forward, meeting his gaze. “You moved the headquarters to Montedra for me. Now that you're going back to clean up the mess, I have no right to sit back." Samuel chimed in immediately. "Yeah, the three of us together are a lot safer than you going solo." Michael looked between the two of them. Their eyes were clear and resolute. In the end, he gave in with a reluctant sigh. "Alright. Tomorrow morning's flight." That evening, when Landon arrived to pick Tessa up and heard about the trip to Yalvaria, his expression darkened immediately.
"Can't you delay it?" he asked, gripping/her hand tightly. "The Nightshade Pack's annual Elders' Council is the day after tomorrow. It's about power distribution-it's bound by ancestral law. I can't miss it, not even virtually," He paused, his voice softening to a plea. “Just one day. Letfinish the meeting, and I'll go with you right after. Please?"

"He wouldn't dare," Tessa said, steady and sharp. She traced the of wolf rune on the back of his hand has with her fingertip. "Master has a stellar reputation in Yalvaria's medical world. Even the Council wouldn't touch him openly-let alone Nathan. With him beside me, I'm safer than I would be here."
"Besides," she continued, her tone hardening, "in Navoris, I'm tied down. I have to worry about civilians, about N protecting Grandpa, about him using them against me. But in Yalvaria... that's different
Her eyes flashed with quiet ruthlessness. "That's his turf-and his weakness. If he tries anything, I Won't hold back. All use everything I've got. The white wolf at full power is more than enough to finish a wounded alpha like him." In enemy territory, she wouldn't need to protect bystanders. She wouldn't need to fear collateral damage.
