Fell for the Alpha-less Queen

Chapter 377 Late Night Texts and Lingering Tension

When Tessa called, Lina was lounging in her room with a face mask on. The faint scent of herbal essential oils lingered in the afr-plants that had a calming effect on werewolves. She put Tessa on speaker, still adjusting the mask over her face.

"You seriously don't trust me to handle it?" She tapped the speaker and kept smoothing the mask over her face.

"I trust you," Tessa replied without hesitation. When it came to Lina, she didn't have a shred of doubt.

"But Tessa, we're talking about Nathan here. He's the alpha of the Yalvaria Frost Pack. You tied him up- what's the plan? If he decides to come after us, we're screwed."

"Don't worry. I've got this." Nathan might be a pain in the ass, but he wasn't beyond handling.

Besides, she'd traded a few blows with Nathan before slipping him the drug.

They hadn't used their wolf powers during the brief scuffle, but Tessa knew enough..

A wolf's spirit was deeply linked to the strength of their human form-the stronger the spirit, the more powerful the body.

And just from that quick fight, she could already tell-Nathan had gotten weaker over the years. She, on the other hand, had fully bonded with the White Wolf. She had nothing to fear.

"Alright, then what now? He's still tied up in my place," Lina said, clearly uneasy. She hadn't touched him after dragging him back-just left him restrained exactly as he was.
