HappyNovelChapter 437 A Secret to Bear Alone At the mention of Landon, a shadow passed through Tessa's eyes.
Yes-barely half an hour ago, Nathan had already sent the first wave of attackers after him.
It happened so fast, her contacts in Yalvaria hadn't even had tto fully prepare their defenses...
"He doesn't know yet," she said quietly.
in Pearts "Then you should tell him," Samuel urged. "If he's your fated mate, he's supposed to face everything with you." "I can handle this on my own. There's no need for him to know." Sthings she simply wasn't ready to let Landon find out.

She wanted her love to be simple and pure.
"You never listen anyway. There's no getting through to you. Fine-do what you want." After hanging up, Tessa took a deep breath.
She really didn't want to trouble Landon-much less let him find out about the blood contract Nathan had placed on her.
Part of her feared what he'd do if he knew. Landon might go all out to destroy Nathan.
Both were powerful Alphas, evenly matched. If the Frost Pack and Nightshade Pack went to war, blood would spill. Countless werewolves would die for/nothing. She couldn't bear to start such a catastrophe over herself. Another part of her, the one that had fallen in love with Landon and accepted he was her fated mate, was now afraid to lose him.
When the lily-of-the-valley scent surged from her glands, she wanted to face him as the truest version of herself- untainted. She didn't want him to know about the filth of that contract, that cursed bond to Nathan that made her skin crawl.
She made a silent promise: once the blood contract was broken, she would tell Landon everything and stand beside him clean and free.
Emma's voice flicked through her mind, tail swishing furiously: Once that damn contract is gone, I'm kicking his kneecaps in and making him beg for forgiveness! Absolutely. Everything we've suffered-we'll make sure he pays it back in full. Tessa's eyes narrowed, cold and dangerous.
Just then, Landon stepped into the room after wrapping up a meeting with Nathaniel. He'd thought Tessa was already asleep, but instead, she stood at the window, lost in thought.

He walked up behind her and wrapped his arms gently around her waist.

She quickly composed herself and leaned into his broad, warm embrace. "No, I wasn't scared. I knew you'd protect me. And besides, you know I'm a white wolf awakener. I can defend myself if I have to, right?" Landon gave a soft laugh. "Yeah, my Tessa is definitely strong. But it's late-why aren't you asleep yet? Something bothering you?" "No." "Really?" "What's with the tone? You don't believe me?" "Of course I do. Whatever you say, I'll believe it. Always."
Tessa turned around and wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her head on his chest listen to his steady heartbeat. "If one day, you got hurt because of me, I'd never forgive myself." She never wanted to see him suffer-not because of her.
Landon rested his chin on her head. "What are you talking about? There's no way I'd be hurt because of you Just having you in my life bringsjoy. No matter what happens, I have only one request: stay by my side.
Never leave. And never think that keeping something fromis for my sake." He didn't know what she was really referring to.
But that was what he meant with all his heart.
Even if it cost him his life, he'd protect her without hesitation.
She was his fated mate, the one gifted by the Moon Goddess. Anch even if fate hadn't written her nbeside his, his love for her would still be unwavering. He would walk with her. Always.
