Landon could feel his deske reaching a breaking point His hands moved instinctively, starting to pull off Tessa’s
clothes.
Flex growled excitedly in his mind. “Oh, she wants it too. Mark her! Make her one with us! Let her becour
mate-completely!”
Tessa felt a sudden chill across her chest and finally realized her clothes were already halfway off. If this
continued, things were going to spiral out of control.
She turned her head to avoid Landon’s kiss and pushed at him, panting. “Mr... Mr. Thorne...”
Landon’s eyes, reddened from desire, widened when he saw her trembling slightly. In an instant, he flipped over
and rolled to the side.
He lay flat on the couch, chest heaving as he tried to calm himself. Frustration and lingering heat warred inside
him.
What was he doing? She was seventeen—just a girl. He must've scared her half to death.
But the taste of her was too sweet. Only God knew how much willpower it took to tear himself away from her.
The worst part was that he could see it, touch it—just not have it. And that kind of torment was maddening.
Tessa immediately pulled her half-removed clothes back into place, her face and ears burning so red they could
drip blood.
She had clearly felt the hard, thick pressure of him just now.
And honestly, with how he kissed and touched her, her underwear had already gotten wet. They had come
dangerously close to going too far.
It was the most physically intimate she had ever been with a man, and now she didn’t even know how to

After several minutes, once he had calmed down, Landon pulled her back into his arms.
“I'm sorry. Did | scare you just now?” His voice was low and a little hoarse. He probably looked like a monster. No
matter how strong she was, when it cto intimacy, she was still just a seventeen-year-old girl.
Tessa didn’t dare admit that she had reacted t oo.
“I almost lost control. | couldn't help it. In front of you, the self-control I've always been proud of... it just doesn’t
work.”
Tessa didn’t know how to face him anymore, Blushing, she slipped out of his arms. “I'm tired. I'm going to
bed.”
But the moment she stood up, he reached out again and caught her wrist. His brown eyes still held a lingering
heat, and his voice cout rough.
“Can | stay over tonight? Don’t worry-I'll just cuddle and maybe kiss you a little. Nothing more.”

No matter what, he would wait until she cof age. She was still too young. He wasn’t that reckless.
Tessa gave him a sharp look. “And that’s already not enough?”
“Just one more kiss.”
Landon shamelessly leaned in and stole a kiss from her lips.
“Alright, now go to bed. And lock the door..I don’t trust myself,” he said with a teasing smile.
If he really wanted to, even ten locks couldn't stop him. But Tessa trusted him.
He had shown restraint, even in the heat of the moment. She knew Landon wouldn't touch her without her
permission.
“You should get srest too. Don’t stay up too late.”
With that, she fled to her bedroom like her tail was on fire.
She lay in bed with her hands pressed to her flushed cheeks, completely unable to sleep.
The feeling was so strange. It was her first tlosing sleep over a man.
She wondered if he was still working.
Tessa grabbed a handful of her hair in frustration.
“Damn it... | forgot to ask him to pick up Ysabel for the concert tomorrow.” She was annoyed with herself. A
pretty face really did mess with your head.
But since he was spending the night, she could just remind him in the morning.
Still wide awake, Tessa picked up her phone and checked her messages.
Avery had sent several texts in a row.
Avery: You better cto tomorrow’s concert.
Avery: If you don’t show up, we're over.
Avery: Whatever, even if you don't

Tessa replied:
