Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight
Chapter 248 Lines in the Sand
Landon saw it too–his eyes turned cold as ice.
Under normal circumstances, there was no reason for Evan and Winona to even cross paths.

Landon hadn’t forgotten how Evan had once sent elite members of the Werewolf Mercenaries in a reckless attempt to capture Tessa and use her against him.
That close call still made his heart race. If Tessa hadn’t been as powerful as she was, Evan would’ve succeeded long ago.
And now, Evan had allowed Winona to show up by his side. Was he targeting Landon–or was this about Tessa?
If it was about him, he didn’t mind playing along. But if it was about Tessa…
A sharp pine–scented pheromone began to spill unconsciously from Landon, laced with a clear edge of killing intent.
Having faced off against Landon multiple times, Evan knew his pheromones well.
He picked up on that familiar, threatening scent immediately and locked eyes with Landon through the
car window.
Evan tightened his arm around Winona and flashed a mocking smile at Landon.
That’s right–he’d brought Winona into his territory solely because of Tessa.
Over the past few weeks, he’d seen just how much Tessa meant to Landon. Hurting Tessa was as good as hurting Landon.
There was only one thing Evan wanted in this life–to crush Landon and drag him down into the dirt.
Winona, of course, had no idea about any of the tension beneath the surface. She only noticed Tessa glaring at her with a sour expression and assumed it was jealousy–jealousy over her climbing the social
ladder.
She couldn’t help the smug grin that crept onto her face.
She hadn’t even done anything yet–just standing next to Evan was enough to make Tessa jealous, wasn’t it?
And if she actually ended up with Evan–became the Luna of the Thornbane Pack–wouldn’t that drive Tessa mad with envy?
Tessa could read Winona’s thoughts like a book. She had no interest in dealing with women like her- women who only knew how to cling to powerful male werewolves.
She pressed a button, rolling the window up and cutting off the view.
“Let’s go,” Tessa said calmly.
Who Winona attached herself to was none of her business. But she’d promised Grandpa she’d look out for

Landon tore his gaze away and started the car, heading toward the Wisteria Apartments.
No matter what, he swore to himself, I won’t give Evan the chance to hurt Tessa.
After the luxury car disappeared into the distance, Winona leaned into Evan.
“Evan, it’s getting late. Why don’t we get some rest…?”
She made her move without hesitation. Evan had been keeping her by his side–there was no way he didn’t have some feelings for her.
Evan checked the time. Yeah, it was late..
Winona, on her own, was admittedly attractive. But when compared to Tessa, she felt… lacking.
