Chapter 72

Xandar groaned in frustration when Lucianne stopped him from kissing her on her lips. Christian chuckled while Juan pressed back a smile.

Lucianne pushed herself off the table, joining the rest of the alliance on their feet. Xandar held her firmly by her waist to make sure she didn’t go any further. He pecked a kiss on her temple before he turned to everyone and said, “Wu Bi Corp is a company that Lucy, Christian, I and a few others have been investigating for a few days. When we hit a dead end, Christian and I pulled some strings. But our contacts haven’t been able to dig up anything yet. He…” his head gestured at the rogue in the next room,”…seems to have given us the fastest ticket to get to the bottom of what we’re investigating.”

Zelena spoke, “Your Highness, I don’t mean to pry but I have to ask: this investigation, does it involve the safety of our packs?” Every wolf in the room was visibly worried for their respective packs.

Xandar furrowed his eyebrows as he matched their worry, “Before today, it didn’t. Not directly at least.”

He and his kind seem to have a good-enough system in place to threaten the safety of our people. The fact that they had enough members to be ranked is just…”

Xandar sighed in dismay as his hand ran through his hair in frustration. Lucianne placed her hand on his arm and her thumb started stroking that area in soothing motions before Xandar continued, “It’s just unbelievable. I’m embarrassed to say that I didn’t manage to find them before they cost the lives of so many innocent people.”
