Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight

Chapter 560 A Conversation in Shadows

Thanks to Landon capturing Nathan, Tessa finally enjoyed a rare stretch of peace.

She didn’t expect that two weeks later, one afternoon, Reginald would come to see her personally–for the first time, face to face and in private.

Tessa hadn’t seen it coming, but she still went to greet him. The moment she reached the door, The Thorne family’s driver opened the car door for her and remained waiting outside.

“Hello.” Tessa stepped into the car and greeted him politely.

Regardless of his attitude, he was still Landon’s father. That alone carned him her respect.

“You’re smart enough to know why I’m here,” Reginald said bluntly.

“You want me to leave Landon?” Tessa replied calmly.

“Yes,” Reginald said without hesitation. “Landon carries the future of Nightshade Pack on his shoulders. He also guards the Montedra wolf territory. Threats come from every direction-seen and unseen. What he needs is a partner who can fight beside him, not a young girl who distracts him and requires constant protection.”

He wanted someone who could support Landon’s rise-not someone who would become his weakness.

“A burden?” Tessa lifted her gaze, voice firm. “I would never be a burden to him. When the time comes, I’ll be his strongest ally.”

She was absolutely confident in that.

No one in this world was more qualified to stand beside Landon than she was.

Reginald chuckled, clearly unconvinced. “You’re clever, but you’re not right for Landon. And you’re certainly not fit to be the Luna of Nightshade Pack.”

“Give me a chance.” Tessa’s tone was sincere. “I’ll prove I’m the one who belongs at his side.”

She didn’t owe anyone proof. But because he was Landon’s father, she was willing to try.

“Oh?” Reginald raised an eyebrow. “Say someone tries to assassinate Landon what would you do?”

“I’d kill them.”

Reginald frowned, tapping his fingertips lightly against his knee. “The wolf clan code is clear: without an actual attempt, execution is forbidden. That kind of impulsiveness? It’s dangerous.”

To him, a true alpha’s partner needed patience and strategy, not the kind of reckless aggression that shouted for blood-no matter the motivation.

But Tessa only shook her head slightly, her voice steady and composed. “Mercy toward an enemy is cruelty to yourself.”

She lifted her eyes to meet his directly. The sharpness in her gaze belonged to a wolf’s bloodline. “The Code exists to maintain order within the pack-not to shield those who wish Landon harm. Anyone who covets his life has already crossed the line. From the moment they even think about killing him, they’re no longer just ‘potential threats.”

She paused, then added, “I’d act before they do.”

That was the real key. Wait until the enemy bared their fangs? Only fools waited that long.

“Is that so?” Reginald narrowed his eyes, studying her closely, trying to read the truth in her words. “But do you actually have that kind of power?”

Tessa didn’t mention her white wolf awakening. She simply said, calmly, “I’ve saved Landon’s life twice. I can protect him.”

As long as she was alive, no one would lay a hand on him. noveldrama

“Really? And what about your past? You think it’s any point of pride for Landon to have a mate like you?”

“Rumors stop with the wise. You believe gossip?” Tessa looked him in the eye, her tone unwavering. “Landon chose me. Don’t you trust his judgment?”

Did her past matter that much?

“You may think it’s irrelevant. But the world doesn’t.” Reginald scoffed, voice hard and heavy with authority. “It doesn’t matter what I believe-what matters is what people will say. What kind of woman becomes Luna of Nightshade Pack?”

As the ruling family of Nightshade Pack, the Thorne name couldn’t afford to be stained. Landon wasn’t just an alpha-he was the alpha king of Montedra. His mate had to match him in power, in lineage, and in reputation-without a single blemish.

“Is that so?” Tessa suddenly replied with fierce confidence. “Then I’ll make sure no one dares speak a word about my past.”

Even if those rumors weren’t true.

If they dared talk, she’d make them too afraid to open their mouths.
