Chapter 71

The rogue was already pale from exhaustion when he muttered grudgingly, “I am to kneel… and bow before the Queen.”

The wolves looked teasingly at the flustering Lucianne. In the interrogation room, Xandar smirked like a cocky winner, “Good that you’ve come to your senses. Were done for today. Chief Dalloway will take it from here now.”

As Xandar got up, so did Christian and Juan. And the Duke went behind the rogue, slammed the rogue’s head against the table one more time before the King fractured the rogue’s neck, earning a painful whimper from the criminal.

Xandar smirked in arrogance and satisfaction before he walked out the door. When the wolves started getting up from the chairs, Toby tried to copy Xandar’s murderous expression and repeated the King‘s words out loud, “What should you do if you are in the Queen’s presence?”

Lucianne punched Toby to the side with force again. He let his body fall sideways on the table as he started chuckling uncontrollably.

Zelena then started with a teasing smirk, “Kneel,”

Her mate, Zeke, playfully continued, “And bow.”

Tate finished, “Before the Queen.”

“Guys. Seriously, stop it.” Lucianne pleaded, hiding her face with her hands in embarrassment.

Xandar opened the door, and Toby got off the table, still chuckling as he went to join Raden and Tate. Xandar stopped the alliance from offering him another bow for the day as he went straight for his mate with smiling eyes. His demeanor was a complete change from just ten seconds ago.

Xandar’s hands pressed on the table, and his arms trapped Lucianne’s small body between them. Xandar pecked a kiss on her lips before he uttered in a low, husky voice, “When we are i n the Queen’s presence, we are to kneel and bow before the Queen.” The upward curl of his lips showed that he heard everything from when Toby copied him.

Lucianne continued to blush as she tried her best to ignore the cheeky giggles among the wolves and told her mate, “Making one kneel is highly unnecessary, my King.”

Xandar mocked frustration, “Oh, come on now, my Queen. We wouldn’t want to confuse the rogue now that I’ve just gotten him to come to his senses on the formalities.”
