Chapter 130

Lucianne blinked before she sighed in frustration, “I honestly don’t know what to think, Xandar. Whatever

we just heard, and whatever we went through these past few days just feels like this complicated web of

events that may be connected, but may not be so at the same time.”

“What do you mean by that, sweetheart?”

Lucianne stared into space as she started explaining, “Well, I understand that Sasha’s behavior on the

training ground was because she thinks that I’m the reason behind her father’s imprisonment. On the

same day she’s placed in police custody, the strongest packs get threats from rogues to draw me to

Forest Gloom. Jake mentioned that they were acting for a client. What if Livia Aphael is that client?”

Xandar’s hand holding hers tensed up a little when he said, “If she is, she’s going to have a lot to answer

for,”

“But that’s where things start to not make sense.” Lucianne looked at her mate like she was trying to

solve a confusing puzzle as she said, “Why would she want me infertile? Up until today, I didn’t even

know her name. If this is about me being bonded to Cummings, whom she hypothetically likes, then I still

don’t see what her problem is. I never took him away from her. If anything, I made it easier for her when I

rejected him. And…if she had the resources to make Greg disappear, why would she let him give me

those incriminating evidence? She could very well make any piece of evidence vanish into thin air.

Besides, from what you guys have been saying about Greg… I don’t really see why he would need any

help in disappearing. He seems really capable of doing that on his own. And how does Tanner fit into all

of this?”

Xandar couldn’t give her an answer so he looked at his cousin uneasily. Christian merely uttered, “Don’t

look at me, cuz. I thought I was lost. But what the Queen said just made me feel more lost than before.”

Xandar sighed before running his fingers through Lucianne’s hair again as he suggested, “Maybe it’s not

connected, sweetheart. Maybe they are all separate events.”

“Then why are these events happening one after another? Why are the people we’re hunting down

disappearing one after another? It’s as if they know who the police will be going after next, and they

disappear just in time to avoid getting caught.” Lucianne said. 1

Blink! A sudden sound in the small room made Lucianne flinch in surprise.

“Oh, that’s my phone. Sorry about that, my Queen.” Christian said as he got out his phone.

Xandar chuckled lightly at Lucianne’s reaction, and wondered how she could look so adorable even

when she was shocked. Lucianne narrowed her eyes at him when she mistook his affection as a way of

teasing

her.

Right after he pecked a kiss on her cheek, Christian said, “That was Annie. Just checking what time I’ll

be picking her up from home tonight.”

Xandar’s eyes snapped to Christian’s as he asked, “You’re not joining us tonight?”

“What do you mean, cuz? Of course, I am. Annie’s joining us tonight, too. We’re coming together.”

Christian explained casually

“Really?” Xandar asked in disbelief. Christian studied his cousin in confusion. Why was Xandar so

surprised that Annie decided to join government events, especially when he knew that Lucianne and

Annie spent hours together at the café the other day?

When the Duke came to the only possible conclusion, he threw Lucianne a cheeky smirk and said, “You

didn’t tell him, did you, my Queen? It’s not good to keep the King in the dark, especially when it comes to

your good deeds of bringing others back into the light, you know?”

Xandar looked at his beautiful mate as he uttered, “Lucy, you said you only encouraged Annie to go

along with her intentions to contribute as Duchess.” 1

She shrugged and uttered innocently, “That’s exactly what happened.”

“Hah! That wasn’t even half of it!” Christian started chuckling at his cousin who looked like a sad, left-out

kid on the playground.

“Babe! What did you not tell me?!” Xandar asked as he held her wrists and leaned towards her.

Lucianne thought for a moment before muttering, “Uh… I did tell her to disregard certain…derogatory

remarks made by people who aren’t worth the attention. Hm…Also, we’ll be there for her whenever she

needs us, and…I guess that’s about it.”

“Still not even half of it.” Christian muttered under his breath before he said aloud, “Let me do it, my

Queen.”

“Alright, but I don’t know what else there is to add. That was pretty much the gist of our conversation.

Don’t exaggerate anything, please, Christian.” Lucianne said, and returned her sights to her mate before

she declared, “I’ll see you guys on the training ground.” !

Right after she pecked a quick kiss on her mate’s cheek and stood up to leave, Xandar held onto her

forearms and said, “Oh, no no no. You’re staying, sweetheart. You can’t leave me alone here while my

cousin gloats about knowing what you said to Annie when I don’t.”

She rolled her eyes and said, “You’ll be fine, my King.” She tried to tug her arms away but his firm grip

was not letting her go. “Darling, we’ve been gone long enough. I need to guide the wolves and Lycans on

the new techniques. I have to go!” Lucianne whined and used her large doe-eyes on her mate.

After losing his own animal’s support, Xandar sighed and pecked a kiss on her nose before he muttered’

over-responsible Queen’ and let her go.

When the door closed with a gentle thud, Xandar faced the smug-looking Christian and he asked,

“What? You’re gonna make me beg for information now, Christian?” The Duke started chuckling and

patted Xandar on the back before heading for the door as he said, “I’ll tell you on the way to the training

ground, cuz. C’mon.”

Xandar reluctantly got up from his seat and followed his second-in-command as he grumbled, “What is it

with you people and the need to head for the training ground at the exact moment I want to know

something?”
