"It's late. It's not safe for a girl to be out alone." "Not safe?" Tessa smirked. "I'm pretty sure the ones running intoare the ones who should be worried." "You're planning to look into what happened to Steven, aren't you? Leave it to me. I'll give you the answer you want." Tessa almost turned him down out of habit-until she remembered that look he always had when she rejected his help.
After a pause, she nodded. "Okay. I'll leave it to you." She trusted him. If Landon said he'd handle it, he would.
Landon was obviously pleased she didn't turn him down. He leaned in and kissed her lightly on the lips.
"I'm happy you lethelp. None of your problems are ever a burden to me," he murmured. "Being able to take care of things for you... it's an honor. I just hope you'll lean ona little more." Caught off guard by his sudden affection, Tessa froze. Her cheeks flushed under the weight of his warm gaze.

Meanwhile, inside the apartment, Tessa handed Landon a glass of water.
"Thanks. Really." Landon pulled her into his arms.
"As much as I'd rather keep you here, you've had a long night. Go shower and get ssleep." Tessa nodded.

Everything was done live, and even though she'd awakened as a White Wolf, she'd jumped in cold tonight. Her body was wiped.
Landon ran her a bath and tested the water temperature.
"I added a couple drops of essential oil. It'll help you relax." "Thanks. You should get going." A Nightshade Pack alpha doing things like this for her... it was hard not to be charmed.

When she heard the front door shut, she finally slipped out of her clothes and into the tub. The water was just right. She sank into it with a quiet sigh.
It was nearly 1 a.m. by the tshe cout, wrapped in a robe andn toweling her hair dry, when her phone rang. Lina.
"Hey, Lina. What's going on? It's late." Something serious must've happened for her to call at this hour.
"Phantom... we've got a problem. Someone found the base." Tessa frowned.
The base's location was supposed to be top secret-no one had ever been e able to find it. "Who was it?" Even if someone did know where the headquarters was, so what? Lightwing Order's true value was never the hardware-it was the people. Most of the senior members weren't even stationed there.
