Chapter 12 The Reckoning: Tessa’s Defiance
“Sorry,” Yara muttered insincerely.
Tessa’s patience snapped.
Without hesitation, she stepped down hard on Yara’s foot.
Yara cried out as pain shot through her foot, leaving it completely numb.
“You-Yara’s eyes filled with tears.
“Oh, my mistake.” Tessa said nonchalantly before-turning and returning to her seat.

Ysabel, watching this unfold, admired Tessa even more. She'd never seen anyone this effortlessly cool before.
The other girls, witnessing Tessa’s ruthless response, quickly fell silent, not daring to speak up.
Queenie clenched her fists in frustration. Tessa wasn't like this before. She was weak and easy to bully
But now, even without her wolf awakened, Tessa was intimidating. And that scared Queenie in a way she

Tessa gets kicked out,” Queenie whispered, plotting
As soon as class ended, Yara limped to Mr. Hamilton's office, crying, and called her mother.
“Mr. Hamilton, look at my daughter's foot!” Mrs. Zane exclaimed, gesturing to Yara’s visibly swollen foot, “She’s
always been such a well-behaved child, and we entrusted her to this school. Now look at her-she can’t even
walk properly! You need to give us an explanation.”

The Zane family, being the beta family of the Thunder Pack, wielded significant influence in Navoris. Few dared
to cross them.
Mr. Hamilton frowned. “Mrs. Zane, please don’t worry. I'm sure this is just a misunderstanding. They're just
teenagers, after all.”
“Misunderstanding?” Mrs. Zane bristled. “Rara, tell your teacher who did this.”
“It was the new transfer student, Tessa, Yara sniffled, tears streaming down her face. “I heard she’s always been
a troublemaker. She used to fight all the time, lived with Rogues, and even had an abortion. | don’t want to be in
the sclass as someone like her!”
Mr. Hamilton's expression darkened as he listened. “Ya, where are you hearing these things? It’s not right

Regardless, he was aware of how harmful such accusations could be to a young girl's reputation.
“Mr. Hamilton, are you defending Tessa?” Mrs. Zane’s voice rose in anger. “If you don’t resolve this, I'll take it up
with Mr. Lambert.”

At that moment, Tessa entered the office, inmediately understanding the situation as she saw Yara.
“Tessa,” Mr. Hamilton asked cautiously, “did you step on Yara’s foot?”
“Yes,” Tessa replied bluntly.
Mr. Hamilton frowned. “Why? Did you two have a disagreement? It’s normal for girls to have small

“No disagreement,” Tessa said calmly. “I just found her annoying.”
Mr. Hamilton sighed. “Mrs. Zane, 1-

Tessa’s gaze turned cold. “Do you even know what kind of person your daughter is?”
“You-!" Mrs. Zane’s face flushed with anger. “Mr. Hamilton, if you can’t handle this, bring in the dean. This has
gone too far!”
Seeing no other choice, Mr. Hamilton called the dean, Mr. Quade.

Mr. Quade glanced at the furious Mrs. Zane and then at the silent Tessa.
“Mr. Hamilton, what's going on? This student just transferred here, and it’s only her first day. How has this
escalated so quickly?”
“Mr. Quade, it’s just a minor disagreement between girls. | don’t think it needs to be blown out of proportion.”
“Blown out of proportion?!” Mrs. Zane snapped. “Mr. Hamilton, watch your words!”
“Well,” Mr. Quade said after examining Yara’s injury, “if Tessa is at fault, she should be sent home. Call her
guardian to cpick her up.”
