Chapter 122

The Lycans and the two Alphas growled at the rogue but Lucianne’s eyes widened in realization. This was what Jake meant when he said she wasn’t going to like what their client ordered for her. The poison on the arrow could be one to render her infertile! It didn’t hurt because it wasn’t a fatal poison, it was a permanent contraceptive!

Her eyes began glistening, which made the rogue smirk even wider. With gritted teeth, Lucianne lifted up the Oleander blade next to her before plunging it into the rogue’s collarbone. It was the slowest way to transmit the poison, according to her books. That was what she wanted for the rogue. A slow, painful death.

She fixed her eyes on the rogue, wanting to see the light in his eyes dim before her. When his being gave i n and his body lost its strength, her hand subconsciously went to her abdomen as she let the first of her tears fall.

The Lycan Warriors were shocked at the sight, and their lifted heads tilted downwards as Xandar asked in a gentle voice, for more Daily updates visit :- www.noveljar.com “Baby, hey. Is it the pain from the arrow?”

Lucianne shook her head in response. But she didn’t trust her voice to be steady so she mind-linked her mate, ‘The poison on the arrow suppresses pregnancy.’

Xandar’s eyes widened but he tried to remain calm for his mate as he linked her back, ‘Babe, we don’t know that. The rogue was clearly a lunatic. He was probably trying to mess with your thoughts. We’ll get D 1. Yeil to check on it, alright?’

When he got no response and heard her first sob, Xandar held her even closer to his chest before planting a deep kiss on her forehead and said, “It’s going to be okay, Lucy. It’s going to be okay.”

After taking note that Forest Gloom had lost three warriors in the battle, those who came from the collaboration boarded Xandar’s jet to make their way back. They picked up the pack leaders and Lycan warriors from Blood Eclipse and Midnight on the way.

Tate, unlike during the flight to Forest Gloom, now chose to sit at a spot where he could see Lucianne on Xandar’s lap. He and Clement didn’t speak this time. Both Alphas were blaming themselves for how careless they’d been to not shield Lucianne from the arrow.

They still didn’t know what was on it that made Lucianne cry for a good half-an-hour on the battlefield. But having Lucianne cry in public like that when she never did was enough to know that whatever was laced on the arrow had to be very damaging.

Xandar’s thumb didn’t stop stroking his mate’s shoulder, and as painful as it was to see her tear-stained face, he just couldn’t look away. Suddenly, his mate’s eyes glazed over and she sat upright on his lap. He adjusted himself to support her posture as best as he could.

‘Lucy, what was on the arrow?’ Juan asked in a demanding voice through their link, getting to the point.

‘Who told you?’

‘Tate. Clement. Does it matter? What was on it?’ Juan was getting impatient. He knew that if something could make his sister cry in public, it had to be beyond bad.

Lucianne inhaled deeply before she linked back, ‘It’s not confirmed by a medical examination yet but from

what the rogue was trying to indicate, it was probably…a poison to suppress pregnancy indefinitely.’ Tears escaped her eyes as she linked that, and she hastily wiped some off before Xandar kissed away the rest as he continued to wait patiently.

There was a moment of silence from Juan’s end before he linked back in suppressed anger, for more Daily updates visit :- www.noveljar.com ‘I see. Get some rest. I’ll see you when you land.’ He ended the link.

When her eyes cleared, Lucianne leaned back into her mate’s chest as she muttered, “It was just Juan.” Xandar kissed her hair, and just as Lucianne was about to close her eyes, she heard Zeke hissed softly,” Jesus, Juan.”
