Chapter 137
“You’re still plugged in to the rumours in the Kingdom, Lance?” Greg asked with furrowed brows.
Lance’s fingers stroked the sun tattoo on his arm, something he did when he was nervous as he responded, “I am, your Grace. In a family of drug mules, it’s rather impossible not to be. We have to stay on top of things to avoid getting caught.”
“What’s the latest news on the Queen?” Greg’s finger circled the rim of his empty glass as he waited for Lance’s answer.
“Uh…the last we heard, she was questioned by journalists and reporters about her presence at the royal family’s doctor.”
Greg gritted his teeth. Doctor. That meant the arrow injury that Livia mentioned was more harmful than he thought. He swallowed a lump

Greg rolled his eyes as he responded to Kelissa Kylton’s inauthentic hospitality, “Like I had a choice.”“Good that you know who’s in-charge here.” Kelissa smirked bumptiously.“No, I don’t. I just know that it’s not me.” Greg lied with ease. This was going to be easier than he thought. Whoever was harming Lucianne already assumed that Greg had voluntarily surrendered superiority the moment he made the call and cited the code. But nothing could be further from the truth.Greg Claw was inferior to no one. No one! …Alright, fine. No one, except Lucianne.Kelissa scoffed darkly at Greg’s response and asked, “So, are you saying that I d

On Saturday morning, Lucianne woke up to Xandar pulling her back into bed the moment she tried to get out. After two minutes of persistent whining of needing to use the bathroom, Xandar finally released her. They went for their usual run and spent some time in the shower together before having breakfast.Xandar then drove them to the government headquarters. Upon entering through the high metal gates, Lucianne saw that the headquarters was a large estate on its own, and the endless rows of empty parking lots showed the numerous employees working in the white and grey building. If it weren’t for it being the weekend, those lots would’ve been filled with vehicles.After Xandar parked in his reserved lot, they got out of the car and hand-in-hand, Xandar led Lucianne to the entrance. The large automatic glass doors slid open

Vanessa entwined her fingers together on the table as she explained, “Ministerial positions had only ever been held by Lycans, which I dare say is the main reason behind the neglect of the welfare of our cousin species. Some Lycan children don’t even know what wolves are. Most Lycans shun at the thought of having to share the room with one. I’d love to say that the government is by far the most liberal and welcoming body when it comes to our cousin species, but the events from the last two weeks have shown otherwise.” “Although there have been notable improvements in how we treat them over the decades and recent years, I must say that it is far from enough. And as much as I acknowledge the Queen’s presence, I’m of the humble opinion that one wolf alone will not enable us to meet the needs of our cousin species as quickly as it could be with more wolves guiding us. What I’m recommending is r

After flipping his light brown ponytail tied with a maroon ribbon to the back, Riven cleared his throat and spoke, “Your Highnesses. Your Graces. I am of the view that any replacements should only be temporary. Deciding otherwise would just be the government coming to its own verdict for our arrested colleagues before the courts deal with the crimes themselves. And, as much as it pains me, I must say that wolves are nowhere near ready to help run the Kingdom. I am not saying that there should be an indefinite bar of their species but it is dangerous to include them in discussions in the near future.”“Dangerous how, Riven?” Xandar asked as he tried his best to control his temperament.Lucianne’s sarcasm came to mind but Riven knew better than to insult the Queen. So, he chose to say, “Well, there m

Annie thought for a moment before she met Harold’s gaze as she said, “Yes, minister. I am.” The Duchess’s non-apologetic answer and confident tone made Christian smile. Lucianne and Xandar were proud to see Annie standing her ground as well.The Duchess continued, “Despite my absence, I know what has been going on in recent weeks. Cummings and Whitlaw have proven to be incompetent in defending a significant population of the Kingdom. Caunterberg is a perpetrator of the very offence he was expected to safeguard the Kingdom from. One of the two sons of our Finance Minister saw it fit to make false sexual harassment complaints for slanderous motives. What’s worse is that this son of hers even hoped to succeed his mother.”“I recommend a review of all current ministers. We should have every

The King commanded the attention of the room as he spoke, “To be honest, I was going to push for a permanent appointment of ministers today. Seeing that it is unwise to do so when the verdicts of the arrested ministers have not been reached yet, I must withdraw my prior intention. It is also an indisputable fact that a more democratic nomination and appointment would require a notable period of time. As many of you have pointed out, time is something we don’t have. We need creatures to stand in now.”“But clearly, not all of us agree with who we shall appoint for the vacant positions, so, as always, this matter shall be put to a vote. Yes, Alivia?” Xandar noticed Alivia’s raised hand so he granted her permission to speak.Alivia smiled pretentiously and said, “Your Highness, don’t you t

After saying their goodbyes, Xandar and Lucianne got into the car, and Lucianne kicked away her heels as she let out a relieved sigh. Xandar waited for her to take another breath before smashing his lips on hers and squeezing her thigh. Only when he released her did he whisper, “We have the rest of the day off, sweetheart. What do you want to do?” Lucianne’s cheeky switch was flipped on when she said, “Isn’t it a little unprofessional to offer such an invitation to someone who’s not crowned Queen, your Highness?” Xandar emitted the dangerous and alluring growl as he pressed his forehead on hers and warned, “Don’t challenge me on this, my love. The moment I give out the order, you can bet you’ll be crowned tomorrow.” “Without the consent and agreement from the one who i

When they came to the end of a broad hallway with bright lighting, Xandar started with the first portrait. Unlike what Lucianne and everyone else learned in school, the Lycan in this first portrait was actually more influential than the King at that time.Xandar explained that the plump woman with auburn curls in the picture was the late King’s sister, who has offered the King back then loads of ideas on how to detect if foreign species, such as vampires or human hunters enter their territories. In school, credit for such revolutionary ideas were given to the King, not his sister. She wasn’t even his second-in-command because of the sexist laws which forbade such an appointment at that time.The second one was a man with a thick moustache and beard, and his eyes, to Lucianne’s surprise, were painted onyx. Xand
