Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight

Chapter 604 Baited

By the time their plane touched down at Yalvaria’s capital, dawn had just begun to break over the horizon.

Michael led them through the quiet airport with practiced case, guiding them to a secure safehouse near the regional division of the medical organization–a modest apartment outfitted with state–of–the–art security, personally configured by Lina. Its concealment was flawless.

“Rest for the day. Tomorrow at nine sharp, the council will send someone to escort me to headquarters,” Michael said, taking off his glasses and rubbing his brow. “You two will come with me. Lina stays here.”

The innermost sectors of the Wolf Medical Organization’s HQ were restricted to those with special clearance. Despite Lina’s talents, she hadn’t been entered into the system’s database and lacked the required

access.

Lina just shrugged, completely unbothered. “Perfect. I’ll stay and guard the place, maybe hack into Yalvaria’s surveillance grid while I’m at it. Give you some backup.”

The next morning, Tessa and Samuel accompanied Michael as he boarded the council’s vehicle.

Back at the apartment, Lina remained alone.

Stretching out lazily, she decided to head out for some local breakfast–not out of distrust for delivery, but from habit. Years of surviving in dangerous environments had made her obsessively cautious about sourcing her own food.

The breakfast shop at the street corner had just opened its doors. Lina had barely placed her order when someone familiar stepped inside.
