Chapter 589 The Master’s Apprentice

“Master, let’s head to the lab,” Tessa said firmly, turning to Michael with a tone that left no room for

argument.

Michael froze for a second–then it hit him. She’d called him “Master.” That one word sent a jolt through him. “You… you’re really acknowledging me as your master?”

He’d waited so long for this. That one word had taken years to hear.

Off to the side, Samuel chimed in, sounding just a bit sour. “Master, don’t you think that’s a bit of a double standard? You sure weren’t that excited when I apprenticed under you.”

“How can that be the same?” Michael shot him a look. “Your junior’s talent is top–tier across the entire. medical world!”

Samuel immediately put on a grin. “Yeah, yeah, my junior is the best. So…. how about calling me ‘Senior‘ once, just for fun?”

Tessa glanced at him, completely ignoring the remark, and turned back to Michael. “Let’s go. No time to waste.”

After the two of them left, Samuel lay in bed, feeling a little left out. He’d clearly been the first to take Michael as a teacher–so why did he suddenly feel like the outsider? Still, the idea of having such a badass junior sister made him smile again.

With her in his corner, maybe Landon wouldn’t be so quick to push him around anymore.

That evening, when Landon arrived at the hospital, Tessa was still busy sorting through lab data. Seeing him walk in, she frowned. “Landon, didn’t I tell you not to come? There’s still viral residue here, and you’ve got so much on your plate already.”

He walked over and wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, resting his chin on the top of her head. “No matter how busy I am, there’s always time to see you.” He lowered his head and kissed her ear gently. “I had Hudson leak evidence to Yalvaria’s opposition party about Stephen embezzling military funds. Parliament’s a mess right now, too busy fighting among themselves to bother us.”

It was a clean move–ruin Stephen’s reputation while keeping tensions between the two countries from escalating.

Tessa turned around and brushed the dark circles under his eyes. “Everything’s taken care of?”

“Yeah, don’t worry.” Landon took her hand–only to find her fingers ice–cold. “Why are your hands freezing?” He picked her up and carried her to the cot in the break room. “Sit tight.”

He opened the thermal container, and a rich aroma filled the room–it was Rebecca’s nourishing spirit broth, a classic werewolf remedy for restoring strength.

“My sister heard you’ve been busy and grieving. She made this just for you,” Landon said, scooping up a spoonful and holding it to her lips. “Come on, open up.”

“I can feed myself.” Tessa reached for the spoon, but he gently held her hand down.

“Let me do it, just this once,” he said softly. “You’ve been through so much lately… Let me take care of you”

Seeing the red veins in his tired eyes, Tessa didn’t argue. She opened her mouth and took the spoonful obediently. The broth was warm and comforting, spreading through her like a quiet hug.

“You drink some too,” she said, taking the spoon from him and offering him a bite. “You haven’t rested properly either.”

Landon chuckled and took the bite. They continued like that, sharing spoonfuls back and forth. Moonlight streamed in through the window, casting a gentle glow over the rising steam–it made even the air shimmer with warmth.

“When all this is over, let’s go to the sea,” Landon said suddenly. “Just the two of us.”
