Chapter 554 Eyes That Won’t Let Go.

“No,” Nathan said calmly, though there was a trace of something probing in his gaze. “Just here to look around. I might enroll in the future.”

“I sec…” Ysabel scratched her head, ghing didn’t feel right.”

She’d grown up in Nightshade Pack and had long heard about the alphas from the major packs. She’d even seen photos in the family archives. The man in front of her had sharp, deep–set features–he looked strikingly similar to the alpha of Frost Pack..

But then again, that couldn’t be. Frost Pack was all the way in Yalvaria. Nightshade Pack had even gone to war with them in the past. What would their alpha be doing in Navoris?

She must have been mistaken.

After all, she’d only seen old pictures of Nathan as a teenager in the annual family record books. It wasn’t hard to confuse him after all these years.

Nathan had never eaten cafeteria food like this before.

• His meals had always been prepared by professional nutritionists. He’d grown up on rare delicacies and gourmet spreads–this kind of simple food would usually be beneath him.

But right now, sitting across from Tessa, watching her quietly eat, even this basic meal didn’t seem so hard to swallow.

His eyes barely left her the entire time–his presence so intense, it was impossible to ignore.

“He’s staring at you the whole time,” Ysabel whispered, leaning toward Tessa.

“Don’t pay attention to him.” Tessa didn’t look up as she kept eating, but her fingers curled tightly around her utensil.

Nathan’s low–key behavior clearly meant he

n’t want to be recognized.

As long as he didn’t make trouble, she could tolerate it.

Nathan didn’t care about their distance. Just sitting across from her like this, even in silence, was already a rare kind of closeness to him.

When they finished and stood to leave, Nathan didn’t stop them. He just sat there, slowly chewing, as if trying to imprint the moment into memory.

Outside the cafeteria, Landon and Nathaniel stood waiting beneath a plane tree. noveldrama

“You didn’t say you were coming. We already finished dinner,” Ysabel pouted at Nathaniel.

They could’ve eaten together.

“No big deal. I just came to pick you up,” Nathaniel said, ruffling her hair.

“Oh.” Ysabel didn’t argue. “Come on, I’ll show you around campus.”

“Sure.” Nathaniel was more than happy to have some time alone with her. Around an alpha like Landon, he wouldn’t dare try anything bold anyway–separating was definitely the better option.

“Tessa, I’m taking Nathaniel for a walk. You guys don’t have to wait for us.”

“Alright. Go ahead,” Tessa replied.

The moment she saw Landon, all the annoyance she’d felt earlier because of Nathan faded completely.

No doubt about it–being with someone you love really could heal you.

Her mood lifted.

When she saw Ysabel and Nathaniel walking off hand–in–hand, Landon reached out and took her hand too, interlacing their fingers tightly.

Both of them were stunningly attractive–so much so that even on a campus full of beautiful students, they stood out like a dream pairing.

People around them couldn’t help but turn to stare at the gorgeous couple strolling hand–in–hand through the university grounds, full of admiration and envy.

Not far behind, Nathan had finished his meal and emerged from the cafeteria. He began silently following them from a distance.

Watching her by Landon’s side–so gentle, so sweet–Nathan felt stabbing pain in his chest, wave after wave.

He really wasn’t asking for much. If she could just look at him that way too, instead of with hatred… wouldn’t that be enough?

What had he done so wrong?

He was the one who had known Tessa first, wasn’t he?

Yet Landon had swooped in and taken her away.

That thought left a bitter taste in his mouth.

The campus was crowded, the scenery beautifu).

Tessa and Landon made their way to the basketball courts, strolling slowly around the perimeter, lap after lap.

The handsome man carried a stack of books in one hand, the other holding tightly onto the girl’s hand.

He was saying something, and she listened closely, hanging on every word.

Then suddenly–a basketball came flying straight toward Tessa…
