Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight novel Chapter 573

Collapse and Resolve

“Are we really going to give up?” Samuel murmured, pressing a hand to his throbbing forehead. The nonstop, high–intensity work was finally breaking even him.

“Take an hour to rest. I’ll keep watch,” Tessa said, giving him a light shove. “We’ll hold out in shifts. Better than both of us dropping.”

Samuel wanted to argue, but her eyes stopped him cold.

She was right, and he knew it. So he stood. “I’ll relieve you in an hour.”

Tessa lay down on the makeshift hospital sofa almost instantly.

and fell asleep

But not even an hour later, she jolted a deep sense of dread gripping her.

She bolted to the lab.

pounding,

The moment she opened the door, her pupils shrank in horror–Samuel had collapsed beside the workstation, his face tinged with the sickly gray–blue hue unique to virus infection.

“Samuel!” Tessa ran to catch him, her voice trembling.

Even an S+ level werewolf medic had fallen. This virus was far more aggressive than they’d ever imagined.

Samuel forced his eyes open, weakly pushing her away. “Stay back… I’m infected… Don’t touch me.”

His voice was faint. Though his healing ability was leagues above other werewolves, it wasn’t enough to stop the virus from invading.

Tessa snatched up his phone. “Get Dr. Samuel to the isolation unit–maximum containment!”

As he was wheeled away, a group of doctors surrounded her, faces pale as death.

“Ms. Tessa… if even Dr. Samuel’s infected… is there really anything we can do against this virus?”

Samuel had been their anchor. Now that he’d fallen, panic rippled through the team.

“You’re giving up just because you’re scared?” Tessa’s glare swept across them like shards of ice. “You’re going to sit back and watch this virus destroy Montedra’s genetic future? You think that white coat you wear is for

show?”

The doctors lowered their heads in shame, none to speak again.

Outside, the council’s defense squads stood guard. No one was allowed in or out. They couldn’t run even if they wanted to. But staying meant risking infection.

“I’ll stay with you.” One woman stepped forward. Her nametag read “Rosa.” “I’ll be your assistant.”

She shot a scornful glance at the others–backing out now was a disgrace to everything their profession stood for.

“Good.” Tessa nodded and turned back into the lab.

Rosa followed closely, moving efficiently through the prep work. Every task Tessa assigned was handled with precision, saving time and energy.

cyes gleamed.

Rosa’s heart skipped. She stared at the writhing genetic strand under the lens in awe. “That’s incredible. The gene sequence is insanely complex. I studied it for three days and couldn’t figure it out.”

“Just borrowed from what I had,” Tessa said calmly, fingers flying over the keyboard. “Samuel had a werewolf genome map in his notes. I used it to find a weak point.”

What she didn’t mention was that she’d spent hours translating those advanced medical terms while

running experiments in real–time–tearing through that wall with sheer grit.
