Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight

Chapter 555 Court Battle

Just as Tessa was about to dodge, Landon pulled her into his arms and casually swatted the basketball aside.

It looked effortless, but the ball slammed into the backboard with a loud thud and bounced far across the court, making the bystanders freeze in surprise.

Several guys who had been eyeing Tessa ever since she enrolled instantly bristled when they saw the commanding presence of the man beside her. Their expressions turned hostile.

“Tessa, is this your boyfriend? Doesn’t look like much,” said the one in front, holding the ball, his tone laced with provocation. In his mind, no matter how intimidating someone looked, they’d have to fold on a basketball court.

Tessa frowned. “It’s none of your business.”

“No need to be so cold.” He turned toward Landon, lifting his chin. “You got the guts to go one–on–one? Loser backs off and stays away from Tessa.”

Landon glanced down at the girl in his arms, gently squeezing her waist with his fingertips.

• Of course he knew what this guy was thinking:

His girl was exceptional–people wanting her was nothing new. But this kind of arrogant little punk? That

was rare.

“No need for one–on–one.” Landon let go of Tessa. His voice was calm and flat. “You can all come at me.” He preferred clean and efficient problem–solving–not drawn–out nonsense.

“What?”

The guys from the basketball team stared at him, stunned.

Did he even know what he was saying?

“I said all of you. Don’t waste my time. Got it?”

“Well damn, cocky much? Fine, since you’re asking to lose, we’ll gladly help. Just remember–if you lose, you break up with Tessa!”

At some point, the campus had crowned à new queen.

Tessa was now Navoris University’s most popular girl.

Of course, she couldn’t care less about the title.

“Break up? That’s never happening./She wouldn’t look at any of you twice,” Landon said flatly.

Then, without another word, he snatched the ball from their hands and nailed a long–range three-,

At first, the basketball team hadn’t taken him seriously at all.

But in just a single move, their opinion changed.

This man could snatch the ball right out of their hands without even trying.

Even with all five players on him, none of them could stop him.

They tried to shoot–he stole the ball. They tried to block him–he launched clean three–pointers with ease.

The entire thing looked effortless, like he was playing a different game entirely.

And the five players from Navoris University’s team couldn’t keep up with a single outsider.

The crowd of girls screamed again and again. This guy–he was way too hot.

Good–looking was one thing, but this? This was charisma on another level. How was anyone supposed to compete with that?

Tessa stood on the sidelines watching, realizing for the first time why girls liked to watch their crushes play basketball.

Now she understood.

Watching him move freely and fiercely on the court… it felt amazing.
