StartNovelChapter 376 Chains and Silence Beneath the Surface
Tessa glanced at Nathaniel. Why was he talking so much?
Seeing that Tessa didn’t want to answer, Ysabel jumped in. “Nathaniel, you talk way too much. Seriously- shut up
and cat. I'm starving over here.”
Nathaniel opened his mouth to speak, but when he saw Tessa’s expression, he backed off.
Forget it. If the alpha wasn’t asking questions, why should he stick his nose in?
Landon politely pulled out a chair for Tessa.
She sat down, and Landon took the seat beside her.
As for Nathaniel’s question, Landon acted like he hadn't even heard it. Throughout the meal, he kept serving
Tessa food and pouring her soup.
From the moment he picked her up today, she’d been acting off.
Of course, Landon knew she was hiding something from him. But if she didn’t want to talk, he wasn’t going to
pry. But he wasn’t the kind of man to force answers out of her.
Tessa could just be herself around him. If she wanted to talk, he'd listen. If she didn’t, he wouldn't push her.
Seeing him like that, she finally felt at ease-for the first tall day.
Meanwhile, in the private suite next door, Nathan was chained to a bronze chair, the iron links soaked in
wolfsbane. A strip of rune-stitched cloth had been stuffed in his mouth, sealing off his ability to speak.
Rage burned in his eyes, barely contained. The proud alpha of the Frost Pack-brought down by the girl he once
believed was his Luna reborn.

He had underestimated Tessa’s resolve. When she poured that glass of wine earlier, he thought she was backing
down.
But when that icy numbness started creeping through his limbs, he knew—
She'd laced the wine with Moonveil Dust-an herb that suppressed a wolf's power.
By the tthe chains cut into his wrists, he realized he’d let his guard down. How could he have forgotten? The
girl he once locked in a lab and injected with wolf-spirit mutagens was no longer a puppet. Every smile, every
moment of weakness... had been a trap, poisoned and precise.
Before walking out, she’d even flung a silk handkerchief soaked in Landon’s pheromones right in his face. “Try
coming nearor anyone | care about again, and next tit won't just be wolfsbane chains.”
But she was his! The bond mark they shared on the back of his neck was still burning. How could she do this to
him... for another man?
At that moment, Nathan didn’t even care if Landon saw the truth. He wanted to summon the Frost Pack’s wolf
spirit, rip the chains apart, knock Tessa out, and drag her straight back to Yalvaria.
But the Moonveil Dust held him down like a curse. He couldn’t move a single finger. All he could do was

stare up at the chandelier as it blurred above him, his vision swallowed by rage... until everything went dark.
Nathan sat there, bound and humiliated, surrounded by untouched dishes. Meanwhile, in the room next door, the
clink of cutlery and bursts of laughter floated through the air.
“What do you think is going through Landon’s head?” Cameron muttered. He didn’t say it aloud, but con-
anyone could tell something was up with Tessa. And none of them were fools.
“Don’t even try to guess what Landon’s thinking.” Hudson was as laid-back as ever.
Love’s complicated. It’s not something you can figure out from the outside-outsiders never really get the full
story. The rest? Best keep their mouths shut. Otherwise, you just make a mess on both sides.

Cameron was speechless. Did he really have to go that hard?
After dinner, the group headed to a nearby club. By the tthey got back to the Sinclair estate, it was nearly
midnight.
As soon as they returned, Tessa called Lina.
“Did you take him away?” She'd texted Lina right after tying Nathan up, telling her to cand move him.
