Chapter 28
Xandar and Christian noticed Lucianne’s eyes glaze over so they waited for her to speak. Her tone
turned serious, “A few members of the alliance want to speak with you both about the rogue Lycan. They
were hoping that the two of you could spare five minutes.”
“Juan!” Xandar called out like a brother with a smile and walked towards him with Lucianne. Christian
followed closely behind.
Juan was with Zeke, Zelena and Tate, and they greeted them, “My King. Your Grace.” (This will be
daily updtaed at www.jar.com)Xandar and Christian both bowed back, and the wolves lifted their
heads as soon as Xandar and Christian lifted theirs. 1
Juan began, “Your Highness, Your Grace. Lucy mentioned that the rogue is due to regain consciousness
this afternoon?”
“He is.” Christian confirmed with a smile.
Juan then asked doubtfully, “Would it be possible if one of us attended the interrogation process? We
don’t mean to intrude but we would very much appreciate a chance to listen in o
n…”
“I was expecting all of you to attend it actually.” Xandar uttered with confusion of why the rest of the
alliance didn’t want to be involved. The b*stard attacked one of their own! They attacked Lucy!
“Really?” Luna Zelena asked in disbelief.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Really?” Alpha Tate asked right after her.
Xandar then said, “Of course. Why not? We’ll be questioning him in a room with a one-way mirror. You
can all watch and listen in from the next room. I don’t see why anyone would think that the presence of
the whole alliance would be an issue.”
Alpha Zeke was still in disbelief, “Really?”
Xandar turned to Lucianne helplessly and said, “Sweetheart, help us please.”
Lucianne then looked at her friends and said, “Guys, just take it.”
They seemed to have finally come out of their shock, “Thank you, your Highness.”
Luna Zelena added, “We really appreciate it, and um…some of us had a thought that…” she looked at
Alpha Zeke, who nodded hesitantly, before Zelena continued, “We think they may have been targeting
Lucy in particular so we are all very concerned. We normally wouldn’t interfere in matters unrelated to
our pack but, for this particular case, we had to ask. Thank you for granting us our wish.”
Christian then said, “We’re on the same page, Luna Zelena. Xandar and I feel that our Queen
was the one they were really after, too. We need everyone involved to be on board to see if we can
connect the dots together.” He then chuckled and patted his cousin on the shoulder before declaring, “My
cousin and I would be very concerned if the alliance didn’t want to be involved in the investigation,(This
will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com) to be honest. We haven’t reached out to any of you yet
because we have to monitor the rogue’s condition today to see when the questioning can start.”
Juan thrusted out his hand to Christian, “Thank you, your Grace.” And he did the same thing t o Xandar,
“And you, your Highness.”
Xandar took Juan’s hand and smiled, “Like I said, Juan. It is I who owe the alliance. I should b e the one
expressing my thanks. We’ll update you when we get any news.”
After they’ve gotten their food and sat down, Lucianne was pressing back a cheeky smile when a thought
came to her. Xandar caught this, “Lucy, do share the joke.”
The others weren’t at the table yet so she said, “I was just thinking about how helpless you looked back
there when Zeke still couldn’t believe what you said.”
“And?” He prompted, taking her hands into his.
Her eyes were flooded with humour, “And you looked like the big, scary Lycan King who was desperately
trying to be a softy. And it was funny.” Lucianne started giggling.
Her choice of words and the sound of her giggles had somehow turned on a switch in Xandar, who then
said in a husky voice, “Careful, my love. If you keep teasing me like that, whatever i s soft in me would
turn very, very hard.” 1
Lucianne looked at him in confusion before she caught his lustful gaze. (This will be daily updtaed
at www.jar.com)Her smile dropped and she warned, “The moment I smell your arousal, Xandar, I’ll
be sitting at a different table for the next three meals.”
“How’s that fair? You’re technically the one who started this.” He complained.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You asked me about the joke!” She retorted in a whisper. He then said innocently, “How should I know
the joke could be…” “Could be interpreted so inappropriately by your horny mind?” Lucianne smirked.
Christian came with his plate, “You’re doing it again, cuz? Take an online course on controlling your dirty
thoughts. Maybe it’ll help. Maybe it won’t, in which case, you’ll be sitting alone.”
Xandar then looked at his cousin with a mock look of betrayal, “You’re ditching your childhood friend for
your Queen?”
“Yeah, I am.” Christian said without hesitation before offering a slight bow to the giggling Lucianne to
signify his loyalty to her over his cousin.
Xandar leaned into his mate and pecked a kiss on her cheek as he whispered into her ear in his deep,
alluring voice, “First, you steal my heart. Then, you beat me in combat. Now, you’re
even taking my best friend. Is there a limit to what you can take from me, my love?”
Lucianne’s cheeks got warmer, and she felt Xandar’s lips curling into a smirk at how her body responded
to his voice, his words. Then, the very scent she was afraid of smelling in a public setting started filling
the space between them. Her shyness diminished, taken over by annoyance.
Her stern eyes fixed on Xandar’s flirtatious ones as she demanded in a hushed voice, (This will be
daily updtaed at www.jar.com)”Control it, your Highness.”
He knew exactly what she was talking about. Xandar chuckled lightly at her seriousness and allowed
himself a brief peck on her nose before he muttered, “As you wish, my Queen.” Disregarding his animal’s
protest, Xandar pulled away from his sexually attractive mate and the scent of his arousal disappeared,
much to Lucianne’s relief. But from Christian’s suppressed smile, it was clear that the Duke knew exactly
what just went on
