Chapter 609 The End of Frost Pack
#Finished
Nathan’s silver–gray eyes brimmed with blood as he watched his clansmen defect one by one, the white wolf closing in with deadly calm. “Tessa! Must you drive me into a corner? My feelings for you–were they all false?”
“Your so–called feelings are drenched in innocent blood.” Tessa stood shoulder to shoulder with Landon, white wolf and obsidian wolf forming a deadly pincer. “From the moment you chose poison and slaughter, you sealed your fate.”
Nathan howled and lunged, his wolf form a storm of claws and fangs. Landon’s Obsidian Crystal Wolf met him head–on, their bodies colliding with a thunderous crack. They rolled across the bloodied ground, locked in a brutal struggle. Just as Nathan’s claws slashed for Landon’s throat, Tessa’s white wolf flashed forward, her paw clamping hard around his neck.
“Get off me!” Nathan roared, thrashing wildly, but Landon seized his foreleg in powerful jaws. Together, the two wolves slammed him to the dirt, pinning him down. Nathan fought like a beast gone mad, his silver fur caked with blood and mud, despair blazing in his eyes. “I won’t accept this! Tessa–what right do you have to judge me?”
“By the blood on your hands.” Tessa pressed harder, her ice–blue gaze merciless. “By the innocent lives you destroyed.”
Landon planted his paw on Nathan’s head, voice like steel. “In the name of the International Wolf Alliance, you are under arrest for poisoning, for murder, for betrayal of your own.”
As his words fell, the thunder of boots shook the ground. A column of silver–armored enforcers marched into the courtyard, their commander lifting a writ. “Nathan. You will stand trial before the Alliance Tribunal.” Chains forged for wolfkind clamped around Nathan’s limbs, and with a final, defeated snarl, he was dragged away.
Amid the ruins of the castle, Tessa picked up the bloodied ledgers and handed them to Hudson. “These are enough to bury them forever in the tribunal.”
Dawn bled across the horizon. The banner of the Nightshade Pack rose high over Frost pack’s keep. Landon walked to Tessa, brushing blood from her fur with a tenderness that defied the battlefield around them. “It’s
over.”
The white wolf shimmered and shrank into the form of a young woman. Tessa smoothed back her hair, gaze steady as it swept over surrendered warriors and the distant city skyline. “It’s not over yet. There’s still work to do.”
Landon took her hand, thumb tracing the curve of her knuckles, his tone heavy with regret. “Forgive me, Tessa. The bonding ceremony we promised–it has to wait. There’s too much to set right here: Frost pack’s rebuilding, Yalvaria’s corruption, the council’s crimes.”
Tessa tilted her head up, no blame in her eyes. Instead, she rose on tiptoe to embrace him. “It doesn’t matter. This is for life. A ceremony can wait.”
“You deserve better.” Landon held her close, chin resting on her hair. “I’ll finish this quickly. Then I’ll give you a ceremony worthy of you.”
“Alright.”
In the weeks that followed, Landon remained in Yalvaria to oversee the aftermath. With the Alliance, he rebuilt Frost pack’s leadership, cared for the innocent warriors caught in the storm, and gathered evidence

Tessa left her covert guards behind to aid him, ensuring the transition held firm. Then she returned to Montedra, sliding back into her white lab coat, focusing on her medical studies as though war had never touched her.
Between classes, she assisted Michael’s team in wolf medicine, lending her knowledge of both human science and wolf physiology to research treatments for the survivors still suffering from the virus.
