Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight novel Chapter 454

Chapter 454 Bite Back

“She’s with me. I’ll take full responsibility,” Ethan said sharply, refusing to back down.

He knew exactly what Tessa was capable of. And he wasn’t about to let Mr. Zachariah’s condescension shake his trust in her not when the stakes were this high.

“Ethan, what the hell are you thinking? We’re supposed to be working together to find him, not dragging in some random girl! Do you even remember what discipline means anymore?” Zavala barked.

As a soldier, he understood how critical and sensitive this mission was. There was zero room for error.

Especially when it came to werewolf class politics–one mistake could set off a storm no one could contain.

“Mr. Zachariah, Tessa’s seriously talented. She can really help us,” Simon cut in, unable to stay silent.

He knew Mr. Zachariah hadn’t seen Tessa in action. If he had, he wouldn’t be saying any of this. Honestly, he might end up eating every word.

Tessa had already helped them crack multiple high–level cases.

Zavala snorted, face twisted with disdain.

“Her? A little girl who probably still smells like baby powder? How much help could she possibly be? Your team used to act like you were the best of the best, and now you’re counting on some kid? Do you even understand the gravity of this mission? We’re talking about a key figure pushing for peace between White Wolves and the alpha class–this isn’t some playground skirmish.”

Ethan sighed, long and low. He turned to Tessa. “Ignore him.”

Without another word, he started guiding her toward the inner corridor. He knew once Tessa started working, Zavala would see the truth for himself.

“Ethan! I’m talking to you!” Zavala shouted behind them, his temper flaring.

The pressure had been building on his end for days. No progress, just mounting chaos–and now Ethan was placing all his hopes on some teenage girl?

It was too much.

But Tessa didn’t even flinch. She frowned, turned slightly, and said coldly, “Can you shut up already? You’re too noisy.”

She didn’t have time for this.

The priority now was to find that missing official–someone who could change the future for all werewolves, especially her own people.

She was already sorting through every possibility in her mind: what kind of magic, what kind of cover, what kind of enemy would cause the trail to go cold for both wolves and tech alike.

This wasn’t the time to argue.

Zavala, publicly scolded by a girl half his age, looked like he’d swallowed a live grenade.

The rest of Ethan’s team couldn’t help chuckling.

Chapter 454 Bite Back

“Ethan, what’s your problem? You looking to fight me now?”

“If that’s what it takes, I’m game,” Ethan replied flatly, a wave of beta–class pheromones spilling from his collar. It didn’t have the dominating pressure of an alpha’s, but it had a seasoned sharpness–razor–honed from years of real combat.

“But I’m warning you: you’re wasting time. Every second counts right now, and you’re here throwing a
