Landon was in the middle of a meeting when Ysabel called.

“Call your dad,” he said curtly,

“Uncle, if my dad finds out, he’ll kill me! Please, just coel” Ysabel’s voice cracked with panic. She felt responsible–Tessa had only stepped on Yara’s foot because of her.

Landon knew how much his grandfather doted on Ysabel. Sighing, he set his work aside and headed to. Navoris High with Nathaniel.

At school, the dean, Mr. Quade, had instructed Tessa to call her guardian.

Ysabel knocked on the office door and entered without hesitation..

“Mr. Quade, this wasn’t Tessa’s fault. Yara was bullying me,” Ysabel said firmly.

Mr. Quade frowned. “And what do you know? My Yara has always been an outstanding and well–behaved student. Tessa, on the other hand, has a notorious reputation. Do you really think I’d believe you?

I’m telling the truth, Mr. Hamilton! It was Yara!” Ysabel pleaded, tears welling in her eyes as the adults refused to believe her.

“Ysabel, this has nothing to do with you. Go back to class, Tessa said, surprised that Ysabel had intervened.

Ysabel stepped closer to Tessa. “Don’t worry, Tessa. I’ve got your back!”

For a moment, Tessa was stunned. It had been a long time since anyone had stood up for her like this.

“Mr. Quade, you see? They’re clearly working together Mrs. Zane sneered. “Expel them both! Students like this only tarnish Navoris High’s reputation.”

Unsure of Ysabel’s background, Mr. Quade hesitated.

“Mrs. Zane, perhaps we shouldn’t rush-”

“Mr. Quade, if you can’t handle this, I’ll escalate it to M. Lambert,” Mrs. Zane threatened.

Knowing the Zane family’s influence in Navoris, Mr. Quade felt cornered. He couldn’t afford to offend

them.

“Then we’ll expel them both,” he said reluctantly.

“Expel who, exactly?” Nathaniel’s sharp voice interrupted from the doorway.

The beta of the Nightshade Pack stepped into the room his Alpha’s Presence palpable as he held the door open for Landon.

Ländon’s eyes swept the room and landed on Tessa, a flicker of surprise in his expression. He’d planned to check on her later, but here she was.

“And who are you?” Mr. Quade asked, though the imposing aura of these newcomers made it clear they

weren’t ordinary people.

Landon and Nathaniel, as the alpha and beta of the Nightshade Pack, rarely interacted with werewolves of lower standing. Even the Thunder Pack’s beta families ke the Zanes had no access to such high–ranking wolves.

Nathaniel, spotting Tessa, raised an eyebrow. “What a coincidence.”

Tessa frowned. Why do I keep running into these two everywhere?

“Who we are doesn’t matter.” Nathaniel said, stepping forward. “What matters is that you have not authority to expel either of them.”

Mrs. Zane snorted. “You think you can waltz in here and order us around? This is a school. If Mr. Quade says they’re expelled, then they’re expelled. What can you possibly do?”

Landon’s gaze turned cold. “Nathaniel, is the Zane family very influential?”

Nathaniel pretended to think. “Not that I’m aware of. What exactly do they do?”

Mrs. Zane scoffed. “They don’t even know the Zane family and yet dare to act so high and mighty here? How ridiculous.”
