Chapter 100
In Xandar’s chest, Lucianne continued her tale in a small voice, “Alpha Jake was bad news from the very
start. Everyone saw it, except his parents. There was this negative energy that you can feel whenever
his presence was close by.”
She sighed before saying, “He asked me for a dance but I said no. Luna Janice, being the cordial one in
the pack house, told me that as children of pack leaders, we had to oblige simple gestures to keep the
peace with our allies. She said that just because I was adopted, it didn’t make me any different. I was
mad at her for pressing me like that but I was also driven by a sense of duty to my pack. So, I mentally
prepared myself to oblige Alpha Jake’s request if he asked again, which he didn’t, thank Goddess. But
his brother, Clement, did. As I told myself that I was doing it for my pack, I obliged. Clement is definitely
not like his brother. The two couldn’t be more different.”
Xandar finally understood why she buried herself in his chest. Alpha Jake. That was definitely a name
Xandar would never think of forgetting. He held her tighter as a form of assurance before muttering in
controlled anger, “I can’t believe Juan’s mother made you do that. You should never have to do
something against your wishes, Lucy.”

they yelled, to be more precise. The father and son threw a fit for two hours after the party when they
found out what Luna Janice said to me. Their outburst definitely made me feel better. A t least I knew
that a sense of duty to Blue Crescent didn’t mean saying yes to things that made me uncomfortable.”
Xandar’s mood eased considerably, and he kissed her temple as he said, “I would love to meet Alpha
Ken one day. I need to thank him for this.” He took in a whiff from her neck before something struck him:
If Jake was the Alpha, why was Alpha Clement…the Alpha? Is this a new pack system that he didn’t
know about? Can a pack even be run by two Alphas?
He pulled away from his mate to lock eyes with her, and he asked in confusion, “Baby, why does Forest
Gloom have two Alphas?”
Her eyebrows furrowed as she replied, “They don’t. Alpha Jake was only there for a few years before
Clement challenged him for the pack and succeeded. Jake and their other sibling, Iris, were cast out as
rogues.”
Xandar blinked in surprise and Lucianne chuckled at his reaction. She started the tale from the very
beginning, “Forest Gloom was always our ally until Alpha Jake took the title. Most packs, including Blue
Crescent, started avoiding it. Many packs cut ties with them with no remorse. Clement was the youngest
in his family of three so the chance of him taking on that title was close to nil. But Jake was one of the
most ruthless leaders we’ve heard of. Their sister, Iris, was no better than Jake, using her brother’s
position to force men in her pack to sleep with her.”
She paused when she met Xandar’s disgusted look. Lucianne then said, “At least Greg’s intercourses
with those different women every night was consensual. Anyway, back to Forest Gloom. So, uh…a few
of their own pack members started leaving and moving into packs where they have friends or family
members to take them in. Many didn’t have this alternative. So, they
went to Clement in secret, asking him to challenge Jake for the title. Clement was very pessimistic about
it. But then, he heard that Juan had become our Alpha, and he heard how Juan was challenging ruthless
Alphas for their packs.”
A smile graced Lucianne’s features as she continued, “Alpha Clement snuck out of his pack one day and
came to us. I was there when he presented his case to Juan, Hale and Beta Preston. He pleaded with
Juan to challenge his brother. After we mind-linked between ourselves, we offered him a different
solution, that we trained him to take down his own brother and claim his pack instead.”
She chuckled lightly before she said, “Darling, you should’ve seen him. He was as white as a ghost! We
could feel his fear in Juan’s office.” She took a moment to steady herself before she uttered,” Alpha

Clement wasn’t scared to die. He was scared to let his people down by dying. Juan offered him a space
to train with us…”
“With you.” Xandar said as he held her tighter.
Lucianne rolled her eyes before she concurred, “With me. He uh…he said we were wasting our time
because he felt that the only way to take down an Alpha is by asking another Alpha to do it.”
Xandar scoffed as he said, “Looks like you proved him wrong, my feisty little freesia.”
Lucianne blushed at the way her mate called her before she resumed her story, “Blue Crescent had no
intention to show off but to prove Alpha Clement wrong, and to give him hope, I had to spar Juan and
Preston at the same time just to show him that there’s no need for an Alpha to take down an Alpha. After
our spar…”
“After you beat Juan and Preston.”
“Xandar, you don’t have to keep saying things like that to keep me flustered. It’s really hard to focus on
the storyline when you do that.”
“Hm…your facts weren’t very clear so I had to fill in the blanks. Go on, my love.” He said as his nose
nuzzled her scar again.
“Darling, no. It tickles!” Lucianne was already starting to giggle at the sensation.
Xandar groaned and said, “Fine. I’ll just smell your hair then.” After greedily taking a whiff, he prompted
Lucianne, “So, what happened after you beat them both at once, my love?”
