Chapter 54 Give Them Up
Finished
When the last man was kicked into the deep end, Landon flicked the lingering blood droplets from his
claws.
The entire fight hadn’t even splashed a single drop of water onto Tessa’s hair. Her pupils, reflecting the shimmering waves, still retained the remnants of battle–a fierce golden slit radiating raw aggression.
Against two elite werewolves, York and his men had been utterly outmatched.
The battle had ended in an overwhelming, one–sided victory, within the span of ten seconds.
“Are you okay?”
Landon retracted his claws and immediately scanned Tessa with concern.
On the other side, Nathaniel was anxiously checking on Ysabel.
The moment they had received word of a confrontation involving Tessa and Ysabel, they had rushed over, only to witness a group of half–shifted men attempting to corner two defenseless girls without their wolves.
Fortunately, they had arrived in time. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
Upon hearing of Landon’s presence, the manager of Willow Ridge Resort hurried over in a panic.
At the sight of the wreckage surrounding the pool, a cold sweat broke out across his forehead. He immediately stepped forward, his expression both tense and respectful. “Alpha, are you all right?”
Landon’s tense expression finally eased when he confirmed that Tessa was completely unharmed.
His gaze swept across the men sprawled on the ground, writhing in pain. His voice dropped to a lethal coldness.
“How dare you hurt my people on my territory? You must have a death wish.”
Willow Ridge Resort operated under an exclusive VIP system. Therefore, only those of status could enter.
While York and his men had never seen the Nightshade Pack’s Alpha, they were well aware that Willow Ridge Resort was under Thorne Corp, which was Landon’s domain.
Now, as the manager addressed him as “Alpha,” the truth crashed down on them like a death sentence.
The man standing before them wasn’t just Landon; he was the Alpha.
They had provoked someone far beyond their comprehension.
The wounded men instantly abandoned their groans of pain. Ignoring their injuries, they scrambled to kneel, frantically bowing their heads in desperate apology.
“Alpha, we’re sorry! We didn’t know they were yours.”
“We only meant to scare them, not actually hurt them.”

Landon waved his hand dismissively, sealing their fate,
Anyone who dared to lay a hand on his people would pay the price.
Nathaniel gestured to the manager, ensuring the matter would be handled discreetly.
Once Nathaniel left with Ysabel, only Landon and Tessa remained.
Tessa met his gaze, sensing the residual chill in his aura and spoke. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have fought on your territory.”
She had been the first to lose control, setting everything in motion.
Landon froze, momentarily speechless. Is that what she thinks I’m angry about?
But when he met Tessa’s earnest gaze, his frustration faded into a sigh.
“If you want to fight, then fight. Just don’t let yourself get hurt.”
As for injuring or even killing someone, that wasn’t her concern. He would handle everything.
“Do you still want to swim?”
Tessa shook her head. After all that, the mood was ruined.
She changed into dry clothes, and Landon drove her back to Wisteria Apartment.
Before leaving, he reminded her to rest.
Then, his expression turned ice–cold once more.
It was time to investigate which short–sighted families had raised those arrogant fools.
They wouldn’t last in Navoris for much longer.
After resting over the weekend, Monday arrived, bringing the dreaded monthly exams.
Tessa woke up, slipped into her school uniform, and headed out.
As one of the most elite institutions, Navoris High prided itself on its rigorous academic standards and all- encompassing student development.
Unlike other schools, which only conducted midterms and finals, Navoris High held examinations every single month.
On her way to school, Tessa grabbed a burger.
Before she could even take a bite, Winona stepped out of a car, as if she had been waiting for her.
Her tone dripped with jealousy. “Why are you living at Wisteria Apartment?”

Wisteria Apartment wasn’t a gated estate, but its prime location made the property prices astronomical.
Back when she had enrolled at Navoris High, she had begged her father to buy her a place there, but he had refused.
