They had made their decision five years ago,
They chose to believe Winona Sinclair’s lies, to trust her accusations, and to abandon Tessa.

“Tessa, how dare you say such things? Do you have any den how disgraceful your actions were? You’ve humiliated the entire Sinclair family and the Frostmoon Pack in Navoris! And you still show no remorse?” Lila’s words were sharp and unforgiving.
Tessa’s disappointment ran deep. As her mother, Lila had never believed her not once.
“Since your disgrace of a daughter has already been cast out of the Sinclair family and Frostmoon Pack my life and death have nothing to do with you anymore. Don’t come looking for me, and stop meddling in my affairs.” “Tessa’s voice was cold as she turned away to collect her bag from the classroom and leave.
Lila watched her go, her frustration growing. Can I really leave her be? No matter what, she is still my daughter- my blood runs in her veins.
thing And with Walter Sinclair, the former Frostmoon Pack alpha and Tessa’s grandfather, set to return, would only get more complicated. Walter adored Tessa. If he found out they had abandoned her in Falindale, there was no telling how he’d react
“Alpha, Tessa has been expelled from school,” Nathaniel reported to Landon. “Also, she’s the youngest daughter of the Sinclair family from Navoris–the one they abandoned here in Falindale.”
“The sister of Cedric Sinclair, Frostmoon Pack’s alpha?” Landon asked. While the Frostmoon Pack wasn’t particularly large, Cedric was a known figure in Navoris
“Yes, that’s her. She used to be quite infamous in Navoris. There were rumors that she eloped with a Rogue at just twelve years old–and even had an abortion.”
“Rumors? And you believed them?” Landon’s voice was sharp.
What kind of Rogue could convince someone like Tessa to elope and have a child at twelve? It didn’t add
Nathaniel scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. “Well, it was her sister Winona who spread the story.”
“Winona?” Landon tried to recall but found the name unremarkable.
“Alpha, this is a family matter. Are you planning to get involved?”
Tessa intrigues me,” Landon replied thoughtfully. “Bring her in. We might find her useful later.” “Wait. Alpha–are you planning to have her work for Thorne Corp?” Nathaniel was stunned.
Thome Corp was the powerhouse of Montedra, responsible for half the continent’s werewolf GDP Talented werewolves had to pass rigorous tests just to get a chance to work there. And now the alpha wanted to bring in an unawakened teenager?

“Got a problem with that?” Landon’s gaze sharpened.
Nathaniel quickly shook his head. “Nope, not at all. Whatever you say, Alpha.”

That evening. Lila was at her wit’s end. She hadn’t even managed to meet Mr. Caldwell, let alone resolve the situation with Tessa. She considered washing her hands of the matter entirely, abandoning Tessa to her fate, when Walter Sinclair reached out through Mind Link.
“No matter what, bring Tessa back. If you don’t, you won’t need to come back either,” Walter commanded sternly.,
“Dad, bring Tessa back? You know what happened five years ago…”
But before she could finish, Walter ended the link.
Lila clenched her fists in frustration. Everyone in Navoris is just waiting to see me fail. If I bring Tessa back, the rumors will only get worse.
Her train of thought was interrupted when Cedric arrived unexpectedly.
