Chapter 435 The Dead Do Not Lie Still
8 Pearls
Landon pulled Tessa tightly into his arms, his pinewood pheromones forming an invisible barrier inside the car, blocking the overwhelming stench of rotting flesh.
"Don't worry. As long as I'm here, I won't let anyone hurt you." He pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead. Silent wolf claws shimmered into view across his palm, vanishing again-ready to strike at a moment's notice.
Tessa nodded, her gaze icy and fixed on the incoming riders. Her back straightened, muscles coiling-every part of her body shifting into battle mode.
Suddenly, the lead rider flung out a hooked claw bound by silver chain. Runes glowed faintly along its links. The chain sliced clean through the car's bulletproof glass, aiming directly for Landon.
He shifted just in time, dodging the attack. His pheromones manifested a spectral wolf's head, which snapped the chain apart with its jaws.
But beneath the attacker's torn cloak, his exposed chest showed grotesque stitch marks-his body crudely sewn together from the limbs of other werewolves.
"They're fleshbinds," Tessa said coldly. "Living puppets stitched together using the forbidden werewolf ritual 'Blood and Bone Reclamation.""
Nathaniel's face darkened. He pulled out a vial of purifying spray-a silvery liquid distilled from moon tide ore, designed specifically to counter dark werewolf magic.
"These freaks have three core points. You have to destroy all three to kill them for good. What the hell is this attack even about?"
Before he could finish, the riders all let out fractured howls-warped, broken cries laced with the sobs of human agony.
The souls trapped inside their puppet bodies were screaming.
Landon's eyes sharpened. An orb of energy swirled into his palm, engraved with the Nightshade Pack's punishment sigils. He launched it at the lead rider, blasting the motorcycle to pieces.
"They're trying to force us into the Old City's burial grounds. The ley lines there suppress our wolf powers."
He growled low, the Obsidian Crystal Wolf markings flaring from his neck down his arms. His pinewood -scent exploded outward in a storm, shaking the enemy motorcycles violently.
Nathaniel blew into his silver wolf whistle. A subsonic alpha frequency pierced the air, striking the riders' eardrums and stunning their movements.
He immediately sprayed the lead rider with the purifying mist. The silvery fog enveloped the target, and the stitched core on its chest began to sizzle and smoke. The creature shrieked in agony.
Landon sprang from the car, his claws tearing through the air. He slashed clean through the second rider's neck core. Dark purple drugged blood sprayed everywhere as the bike exploded behind him.
The remaining riders turned and tried to flee toward the burial zone.

Landon scoffed coldly. Activating Flex's space-rift ability, he cracked open the ground ahead in a two-meter-wide chasm.
The final two motorcycles were swallowed whole by the void, combusting before they could even scream.
Tessa stared at the scorched wreckage and tightened her fists.
That bastard Nathan.
He really sent them.
She could feel it-this attack had his name written all over it. That brazen, deliberate message... Who else could it have been?
The battle ended. The three returned to the car and drove in silence.
No more enemies appeared.

By the time they arrived back at the villa, everything was still.

They hadn't suffered a scratch, but she was far from calm.
Nathan.
That damn Nathan.
After Landon left, Tessa immediately rose from bed. She stared at the glowing
silver ring on her finger, its eerie shimmer flaring once again.
Her fury boiled over.
She grabbed her phone and dialed Nathan directly...
