Chapter 105
Whatever Xandar just said was not just ‘terrifyingly overwhelming’. It was monstrously torturous, heartbreaking and soul-crushing. It was basically the strongest cocktail of all his fears combined into a single scene.
Lucianne’s hands reached out to stroke his cheek and shoulder, ensuring him that she was right there in front of him, that she was his and only his, that they weren’t apart and never will be so. He leaned into her hand and kissed her palm before she asked in a small, encouraging voice, “How did you fight it?”
He managed a smile when he explained, “For a while, I didn’t think I could. My instinct was to pounce on Greg, who was holding you a little too close for my comfort…actually, I prefer if he didn’t hold or touch you at all.”

One of the perks about being the queen was that Lucianne could be fully trusted to take suspects and criminals out for however long she wanted. It wasn’t advisable or customary because of issues of safety, but Margaret’s case was, of course, different since she was working to get pardoned. There was no way she’d try and hurt Lucianne, and even if she did, Lucianne’s Authority would stop her. After they got into the car and began talking about Stella, Lucianne insisted Margaret call her ‘Lucy’ like everybody else before their conversation continued. Lucianne drove them to an outdoor café with potted plants here and there and a water feature for a wall that had the most invigorating sound. After placing their order for slices of cake and cups of coffee, they thanked the waitress and got down to business. Margaret was pressing her f

Lucianne chuckled and shook her head without hesitation as she answered, “No. I can think of more than a hundred things wrong with myself and I’d love to tell you all about it but we’d probably be here for days!” Margaret was encouraged to laugh in response because she felt less alone. “Don’t take this the wrong way but I’m glad you said that, Lucy. It’s never going to be easy to be happy with who we are, is it?” “It’s never going to be easy to be unhappy with who we are either, don’t you think?” Lucianne turned the question around with a smile. That got Margaret thinking, and when she realized what Lucianne was trying to tell her, she smiled wider and said, “I’m starting to think that Tate lied to me when he said you were only a Gamma. Either that, or you have a hidde

After Lucianne settled the bill, she drove them to Annie and Christian’s home. The guards let her in and told her that the duchess was at the other end of the villa with her guests. “Perfect. Thank you, Frederick,” Lucianne uttered with a smile, and the guard tipped his cap in response. Lucianne drove across the estate and parked right in front of a single-storey building that was detached from the villa. Lucianne got off and Margaret followed her. When Lucianne's hand was inches away from the doorknob, her ears perked up. She left the door alone and began walking around the building when she said, “They’re over here, actually.” The moment they reached the back, Margaret gasped at the gorgeous greenhouse. It

The defense ministers, Margaret and her mavericks, Lucianne, Xandar and Christian reached the Den. Chief Dalloway, who was escorting Kate, looked at the duke, as if asking him an unspoken question. Greg got the message, and pointed at the only chair at the side and said, “Over there, Chief.” Despite being surprised that this duke actually addressed him politely, he complied. Kate was confused. What was happening? And why did she have to go first? None of her friends knew what this was about, not even Margaret. But Tate knew, and it was killing him and his wolf to not say a thing to their mate. Lucianne even had to discuss with Xandar for two whole minutes before deciding whether they should tell Tate. Even n

Greg's answer made everyone even more stunned. Lucianne gritted through her teeth when she asked Kate, “Earlier, you told me that you didn’t know where the discretus who invaded Blue Crescent was supposed to take you. Now, the trace is showing that your boyfriend is from the Forest of Oderem. Are you saying that you didn't know where he was from?" "No." "Then how are these two contradictions both the truth?” “My boyfriend wasn’t going to bring me to the forest first. He said he needed permission to do that, not just the leaders’ but also the forest’s permission. I was supposed to go to a transit location. And he said that if permission was ever refused, we’d just live somewhere else.”

As soon as the vigils returned to vampire territory after the investigation of the hut and hideout in mid-afternoon, they made their way to the castle once again. Outside Pellethia’s study, Duica took a deep breath, knocked twice, and waited.“Who is it?” Pellethia’s familiar voice came from inside.“It’s VIG 001, Your Majesty.”“Come in, Duica,” came the reply.Duica was surprised. That was the first time the empress had said his name. Dominic nudged him and teased through their mind-link, ‘She might have a favorite after all!’After Duica rolled his eyes, he opened the door and Pellethia, w

Maddock spoke softer when he continued explaining, “Lady Luisa and Heros Pas were assassinated for what your late father deemed to be treason, which many couldn’t imagine how. Rosalie was never a royal aid or anything close in the first place. That decision did not help with the tension with the lycans at all. The untimely death of Heros Pas, one of the most prominent lycan officials, was one of the strongest propaganda used by their kind to instigate hate and encourage the wolves and lycans to kill us.”Pellethia refuted, “Rosalie was closer than a royal aid. She was practically family. My father did what any ally would have done - avenge her death. As for Lady Luisa, wasn’t she a close family friend of yours, Maddock?”“She was, though I don’t see how that’s relevant.”
The Rogues Who Went Rogue Chapter 113
In the part of lycan territory that was near the border of vampire territory, Gerella and the others were in Neptune’s warehouse, where Neptune claimed no one ever came unless he authorized them to come. He had an older warehouse too, but he, Klementine and Saxum all agreed that using the old one as cover wasn’t smart since the authorities would’ve already found the abandoned hut. If the duke somehow managed to figure out the hut was Neptune’s, he might send his followers to other old properties that were dormant. This was simply a precaution because Neptune doubted Greg Claw would know the hut belonged to him when he deliberately left it out of the duke’s annual check on rogue assets. Greg did this check to ensure that rogue assets either remained off the authorities’ radar or that it was registered to be legitimate in the authorities’ systems.
