Landon frowned and pulled the phone away from his ear, checking the screen. He hadn’t misdialed–this was definitely Tessa’s number.
So… Who the hell just picked it up? Was it the guy from this morning? Had she been with him all day?
A strange, bitter feeling crept into Landon’s chest–one he didn’t quite recognize. Jealousy? Possessiveness? Whatever it was, it didn’t sit well.
“Is Tessa there?” His voice was cold and sharp.
“She’s busy right now,” Nico replied, calm and casual. “I’ll let her know to call you back when she’s done.”
Then, click–he hung up.
Tessa was fully focused on the experiment, not paying the slightest attention to who was calling.
Back on Landon’s end, his expression darkened even more.
“Alpha… everything alright?” Nathaniel asked cautiously.
What the hell was that look? Landon had been on edge all day, but now he looked like he was two seconds away from losing it completely.
Landon called again.
This time, Kevin picked up. “I said she’s busy–don’t you get it?”
Kevin–also known around campus as the physics maniac–had zero patience for distractions during lab time. Without waiting for a response, he hung up again and shut the phone off.
Nathaniel held his breath. The tension was so thick, he didn’t even dare to move. Landon looked like he
might explode.
No one ever talked to Landon like that–and the way he was looking right now? Yeah, it wasn’t good. Not at
all.
“Alpha, who was it? Just say the word–I’ll take him out!” Nathaniel was genuinely nervous now. When Landon lost his temper, it was terrifying.
“No need. It’s fine.”
Landon’s voice was ice–cold, and Nathaniel immediately glanced across the room at Hudson.
Hudson, however, looked completely calm, like none of this had anything to do with him.
Then again, that wasn’t surprising. Hudson was one of the most ruthless lawyers in He’d been through worse, seen worse, and handled worse. Something like this? No
over.

“You guys go ahead and hang out,” Landon muttered, standing up. He grabbed his suit jacket off the couch, slung it over his arm, and turned to leave.

Cameron let out a breath. “It’s Tessa, isn’t it? I’ve never seen him act like this over angone, Serkoudy love really mess people up that bad?”
Hudson finally looked up from his phone. “Love’s micky, Who really understands it? He stood up and grabbed his jacket. “Anyway, Landon’s gone, and I’ve got a case to handle. I’m out too?
“You’re leaving too?” Cameron sighed.
Lately, getting all four of them in the same room had been almost impossible.
As soon as Landon got into the car, his driver glanced back.
“Where to, Alpha?” he asked carefully. The tension radiating off Landon was almost unbearable
It had started that morning–ever since he’d seen Ms. Sinclair getting into that Special Forces SUV. And now? The pressure in the car was suffocating.
“Navoris High,” Landon said curtly.
The driver didn’t say another word. He drove straight to the school, pulling up quietly outside the gates. But Landon didn’t get out.
He just sat there.
Then he called Tessa again.
Still off.
“Alpha… I’m going to step out for a smoke,” the driver said quietly, slipping out of the car as fast as he could. The air inside felt like it was about to snap.
Right then, Kevin walked out of the school building with Nico and Tessa behind him.
“Let’s continue after lunch–there’s still one more experiment to run today.”
