Chapter 336 Tracks in the Dark Tessa didn't wake until eight the next morning.
82% Finished Though she was headed for Falindale, she didn't pack much-just a sleek black backpack slung over one shoulder and a black baseball cap pulled low over her eyes. The look was cold, clean, and effortlessly cool.
She took a cab to the train station. But before she could step inside, her phone rang. It was Samuel. The moment she answered, his anxious voice burst through the speaker.
"You're going to Falindale?" He was panicking.
Why couldn't she just stay put for once? What was she thinking, heading straight to Falindale again? That man had already traced her to Falindale-and she still chose to go back? Was she trying to hand herself over? "Yeah. What's the problem? I can't go?" Tessa replied casually. It was just a trip to Falindale. Was that really worth losing his mind over? "Tessa, I'm serious. That man has never stopped looking for you. You're safer with Alpha Landon. Just stay with him." Samuel sounded exhausted.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe knew how skilled she was—but this situation wasn't something skill alone could solve.
"Alright, enough. Aren't you shotshot S+ doctor? Shouldn't you be curing rare werewolf diseases or saving lives or something? Why are you wasting ton this nonsense?" Tessa's tone turned impatient. This really wasn't a big deal-what was he so worked up about? "Tessa, I mean it. Anything that affects your safety is not a small thing. Stop brushing it off!" She was always like this-reckless, unbothered, completely unaware of how dangerous she really was to certain people.
"I'm heading into the station. I've got to go. Just take care of yourself, that's all I ask." She ended the call and turned her phone off before he could try again.
Sure enough, Samuel did call again-only to hear the cold, robotic This phone has been turned off.
He nearly threw his phone across the room.
Why couldn't that girl ever stop making trouble? Did she not know the Montedra werewolf council had issued a kill order on that man? Meanwhile, in Yalvaria-the heart of Montedra-a man who had been chasing Tessa for years finally caught wind of her heading to Falindale.

"Alpha... you're really going?" his beta asked, hesitation clear in his voice.

"Yes." After all this time, he finally had a lead on Tessa. There was no way he wouldn't go himself.
"This time, I'm going to bring her back with my own hands," he said coldly. "And once bhave her-she's never En leaving again."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe beta's expression tightened.
"Alpha, returning to Montedranow is col too risky Have you forgotten what E you did there?"
Montedra was crawling with wolves who wanted him dead. Especially now that he was about to step onto the land ruled by Landon Nightshade himself. This wasn't just reckless-it was suicidal. "I don't care." When it cto Tessa, he couldn't stay calm. He never could. "Alpha-!" "Enough. The plane's about to take off." The man cut him off.
Because he was sneaking into Montedra, he hadn't used his private jet. Instead, he'd opted for public transport-quiet, untraceable.
No matter the risk.
No matter what it cost.
He was going to take Tessa back.
And this time, she'd never escape him again.
