Tessa’s calm question caught Steven off guard; he hesitated, then said, “Tessa, maybe you didn’t hear me clearly. I said Evan—the Alpha of Thornbane Pack. He’s also the owner of our company. We can’t afford to

cross him…”

“He’s just Evan.” Avery walked in at that moment, catching Steven’s words. His tone was firm. “Steven, no matter what, the company has to give us an explanation for this.”

Steven was the youngest in the band, but he’d clearly thought through more than they’d expected.

“Hey, I just don’t want everyone to lose this hard–won opportunity to perform because of me.” Back when things were at their toughest, none of them had given up; they sure as hell weren’t giving up now.

Only they truly knew how hard the journey had been.

“Steven, don’t forget–we’re a team. If they hurt you like this, they’re hurting us. If success means my bandmates have to swallow injustice, then I don’t want that kind of success.” Avery had always been fiercely protective of his men; as long as they stood beside him, he’d never let them suffer.

“And if the company has a problem with us, then if we don’t speak up now, it’s just going to happen again. Next time, who will they go after?”

SkyEcho Entertainment wouldn’t dare target him–the lead vocalist–but the others were a different story.

The rest of the band stepped out from behind the door they’d been outside listening the whole time, catching every word Steven said.

“Steven, it’s not the end of the world. Worst case, we go back to having nothing. But SkyEcho Entertainment will give us an answer this time.”

“It’s not like we haven’t lived through hard times before We’re not afraid of hardship!”

Everything they had today was built with their own hands; if someone had to be sacrificed to keep it, then no way were they going to accept that.

Steven looked at them, deeply moved.

“Alright, enough of this soap opera drama; we’re not here to cry.” Tessa finally spoke. “If they dared lay a hand on Steven, I’ll make damn sure they pay for it.” Still, seeing their bond hadn’t changed one bit–it really touched her.

So many bands fell apart after they made it big. But she truly believed these five could make music together for a lifetime.

“Yeah. As long as we stick together, there’s nothing we can’t get through.” Steven pulled everyone into a hug, and the five members of Avery Band embraced each other tightly.

Tessa joined them too, wrapping her arms around them. It had been a long time since she’d felt something like this.

“Let’s go,” she said. “First, we deal with the one who hurt Steven.”

“Yeah.”
