Chapter 596 A Bond for Life

At last, the day of the bonding ceremony arrived.

Early that morning, Tessa returned to the Sinclair family estate.

While wolf bonding rituals weren’t as elaborate as human weddings–there was no formal custom–they did hold firm to traditions. She wanted her grandfather to see this with his own eyes, as if he had never truly left her.

The Sinclair estate had been thoroughly cleaned, inside and out, by Yardley.

He hovered anxiously over the servants, sweat beading at his temples. When he saw Tessa walk in, his voice was laced with nervous anticipation. “Tessa, take a look. Is there anything out of place? The Thorne family will be here soon–we can’t afford to show any disrespect.”

Ever since he learned that Tessa and Landon were bonding, Yardley had cast aside every trace of discontent he once held toward her. Now, all he wanted was to win her favor again–and with it, a connection to the Nightshade Pack’s powerful Thorne family.

Tessa didn’t even glance at him. She walked straight to the ceremonial hall and stopped in front of the urn at the center.

The urn gleamed from a fresh polish. The characters “Walter Sinclair” etched into its surface glowed softly in the candlelight.

“Grandpa,” she said gently, her fingers brushing along the edge of the urn, “everything’s ready. You always hoped I’d find somewhere I truly belonged. Now you don’t have to worry anymore.”
