Tessa walked into the classroom. All the students stared at her with gloating expressions.
She didn’t even bother to acknowledge the jealous looks they threw her way.
“Tessa, Mr. Lambert wants to see you,” said the principal’s assistant, who came in personally. Her tone was polite, at least.
As soon as the girls in class heard the assistant’s words, they began whispering.
“This time, there’s no way.Tessa’s getting away with it, right?”
“Yeah, I heard Nico’s mom came too. You all know the Dawson family–werewolf nobility in Navoris, with real power and money. Nico’s mom is even on the school board. If she showed up, this must be serious.”
“Well, I’ve seen Nico’s mom once. That woman is terrifying. Tessa’s done for.”
Tessa made her way to the principal’s office like she had done it a hundred times before.
Inside were Lambert, Nico’s mother Sharon Dawson, and the homeroom teacher of Grade 12, Class 8, Hamilton.
When Lambert saw it was Tessa again, his expression soured. Tessa had been placed in the school by Nathaniel, the Beta of the Nightshade Pack. Still, her grades were outstanding.
But this time, the situation involved Nico, and he really didn’t know how to handle it.
“Tessa, can you tell us exactly what happened in the physics lab?” he asked. The recent photos circulating on the school forum had caused a huge stir, even catching the attention of many parents.
This was a place for learning, especially Navoris High, the most prestigious school in the city. No ordinary family could get their child in here.
And once something like this got out, the parents had a lot to say.
Sharon stared at Tessa. The girl was undeniably beautiful, with a face that could easily enchant people.
She had looked into Tessa’s background and was well aware of the rumors about her mixing with Rogues. Now, seeing her in person with that seductive look, Sharon was even more convinced that Tessa had seduced her son–and her disgust deepened.
Tessa glanced at the woman sitting on the couch. She instantly knew this had to be Nico’s mother. They looked too alike.
She replied lazily, “Mr. Lambert, we were doing experiments in the lab. What else would I be doing?”
“We’re not accusing you of anything,” Lambert said carefully. “We just want to understand what really happened. You know those photos on the forum have caused a lot of negative attention. Parents and. students are all focused on this now. If we don’t handle it properly, it’ll be bad for both you and Nico.”
His tone stayed polite. After all, Tessa had been introduced by a Nightshade Beta.
“Okay,” Tessa replied with the same careless attitude, as if none of this worried her at all.

Lambert frowned. Who could it be now? I still have a ton to deal with. Who else is here to cause trouble?
Still, he told them to come in.
“Mr. Lambert, we’re here as student representatives for this incident. A student like Tessa, with such a long record of bad behavior, doesn’t deserve to be one of us. We’re here to request her expulsion.”
