RankNovelChapter 119 Storm Warning
As soon as Landon saw Tessa walking over, he reached across and pushed the door open for her.
She climbed into the car.
“What are you doing here?” she asked, surprised.
“Nothing much,” Landon replied calmly. “What kept you busy today?”
“Nothing special. Sas always-school.”
Landon went quiet.
In his head, Flex let out a low, angry growl. “She’s lying. She lied to us! I'm pissed!”
Tessa finally picked up on the shift in mood. “Mr. Thorne, is something wrong?”
“I'm fine.”
But he wasn’t. She was hiding something from him and it stung.
He thought they'd built enough trust to be open with each other. As an alpha, he was used to control-but with
Tessa, what he wanted most was trust.
“Where were you headed just now?” he asked.
“Dinner. Mr. Clark was taking us out to eat.”
Us.Was that guy going too?
“I'll take you.” Landon hit the button to roll down the divider. “Drive,” he told the driver, who got in and started
the engine.
Meanwhile, not far away, Winona was walking near campus, planning to grab dinner. But she froze the moment
she spotted the car.
She recognized it immediately-it was the sone that always cto pick Tessa up.
It was the first tWinona had gotten a good look at the man’s face.

He was ridiculously handsome-so striking it almost didn’t feel real. If he ever stepped into the entertainment
world, he'd leave everyone else in the dust.
She quickly pulled out her phone to snap a picture-but the second she lifted it, Landon’s eyes locked onto hers.
A wave of overwhelming pressure slammed into her. Her body locked up-she couldn't move.
Tessa noticed her too, and a faint, amused smile played at the corners of her lips.
Winona again. Honestly, speople are just impossible to shake.
“Let’s go,” Landon said flatly to the driver.

First, it was a Navoris Special Forces car picking Tea up this morning. Then, it was Nico all over her. And now this
man-mysterious, powerful, and clearly dangerous.
Tessa really knows how to wrap people around her finger Winona thought bitterly. If any of those gun found sai
about each other, she'd be in serious trouble.
The thought alone made Winona let out a low, chilling laugh. “Let's see how long you can keep this act up Tessa.
You're playing a dangerous game. And | cant wait to watch it all fall apart.”
In the car, Landon spoke casually. “I can see why you and your sister don’t get along”
Tessa didn’t respond. What does that have to do with me? She thought.
There was a pause. Then, Landon finally asked what had clearly been on his mind the whole time. “Why was
your phone off?”
Tessa pulled out her phone and powered it on. “No idea. | wasn’t paying attention.”
Landon went quiet again.
The car pulled up in front of Silvermoon Estate-a place Tessa had heard about before but never had the chance
to visit.
The owner-a poised, elegant woman in her forties-cout personally to greet them as soon as she saw
Landon. “Alpha! It’s been a while. The usual spot?”
“Yeah,” Landon replied simply.
She led them into a private booth

“Tessa Sinclair,” Landon answered without hesitation.
“Merry, go ahead and bring the usual,” he added. “Sas always.”
He'd brought Tessa here to get a moment alone with her.
Merry gave him a knowing smile. “Got it. I'll give you two sspace.”
And with that, she was gone, leaving just the two of them in the room.
Tessa glanced at her phone. A new message from Simon had popped up.
From the second they'd sat down, she hadn't looked at Landon once. She was completely focused on her phone.
Landon sat back. watching her in silence. His gaze had shifted, more intense now. Was she seriously more
