Winona stared at Evan in confusion.

“Evan, why do you want her to get in the car? We’re almost at school anyway–there’s no need to give her a
ride.”
It was her first time dealing with a werewolf of Evan’s rank, and she instinctively feared him.
She knew she should obey his orders, but she really didn’t want Tessa getting into the car.
She was worried that after all her efforts to win Evan over, he might end up falling for Tessa instead.
Even without a wolf and with a bad reputation, Tessa’s lace was stunning.
Wasn’t that why all those men hovered around her?
“I don’t like disobedient women,” Evan said flatly.
But even those few words sent a wave of fear through Winona.
“Eyan…” she looked at him helplessly, unsure of what he meant. Was he actually interested in Tessa?
Evan didn’t press her. He tapped idly on the steering wheel, looking perfectly calm and patient.
Under the weight of his gaze, Winona had no choice but to call out, “Tessie, hurry up and get in! Ride with us!”
Tessa didn’t even glance at her. Without pausing, she kept walking toward school.
Winona clenched her fists.
Tessa was infuriating–never giving her face, no matter the situation.

Winona picked up her bag and stepped out of the car, standing beside it.
“Go on,” Evan said with a wave.
“You go first. I want to watch you drive off,” she replied with a lovestruck expression.
Evan turned the car around and drove away.
So much for using Winona to get close to Tessa… That’s clearly not going to work. Time to try something else.
Just as he pulled onto the road, his phone rang.
“Alpha, we finally got a lead on Phantom. She’s in Navoris. She hacked into Zane Corp’s system last night.”

And if they could bring her under their banner, with Phantom’s unmatched hacking skills, cracking Thorne Corp’s firewall would be child’s play. That would allow them to completely sever the Nightshade Pack’s economic backbone.
Forget defeating Landon–he’d gut the entire Nightshade Pack and absorb them into his own empire.
“I’m on my way.” Just hearing the name Phantom made Evan’s glands heat with excitement. He slammed the accelerator.
He was very, very interested in Phantom.
Meanwhile, at Thorne Corp-
