Chapter 30

Lucianne took a step forward and look dead in Whitlaw’s eye as she said, “I know why a minister should exist. But I cannot fathom why you and Alfred Cummings exist, Minister Whitlaw. You both don’t even know the packs which need help in rogue attacks. You both couldn’t even tell me why we had to pay a ‘to-be-confirmed’ amount for Lycan warriors to help in a rogue attack. And, I distinctly remember that it was you Pierre Whitlaw, who told me to give up being a Gamma because I was asking too many questions.”

Pierre’s face was turning white but Lucianne didn’t waver. “You want to talk about procedure? It was your procedures that made packs resort to borrowing funds from each other to support their pack members. It is because of procedures that relief applications almost never reach the final stage for monies to be disbursed. And you want to speak about permission?” Lucianne scoffed, “I didn’t see you complaining about a lack of permission when we fought off the rogues in the Jewel Pack, or any of the battles we fought before that. Why are you complaining about a lack of permission to resolve a sparring dispute? Is your job scope only here, on this training ground?”

He opened his mouth but nothing came out. He was already shaking. Lucianne’s face burned into his eyes as she said, (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)“Be grateful that we are doing your job while you hold your position, Whitlaw. Otherwise, give up being a Minister because you’ve been answering too few questions.” 4

‘I-I apologize, my Queen. Excuse me.” Whitlaw said and scurried away and Alfred followed suit.

Lucianne finally took in the scene around her. Everyone had stopped fighting to watch the incident. They were all looking at her. Some smiled while others resisted laughing at the retreating ministers. Lucianne took a breath to calm down. She then clapped her hands once before yelling out, “Alright, everyone. Shows over. Get back to training.”

She expected only retreating figures and turned-away heads after she said that. To her surprise, there were slight bows and muffled voices uttering, “Yes, my Queen.” And everyone returned to their respective mats to continue training.

Xandar was looking at her in pure awe and admiration. “You’re just…amazing.”

She smirked. “Flattery is not going to get you out of training, dearest. Go on now, my King.”
