Chapter 130

Lucianne blinked before she sighed in frustration, “I honestly don’t know what to think, Xandar. Whatever we just heard, and whatever we went through these past few days just feels like this complicated web of events that may be connected, but may not be so at the same time.”

“What do you mean by that, sweetheart?”

Lucianne stared into space as she started explaining, “Well, I understand that Sasha’s behavior on the training ground was because she thinks that I’m the reason behind her father’s imprisonment. On the same day she’s placed in police custody, the strongest packs get threats from rogues to draw me to Forest Gloom. Jake mentioned that they were acting for a client. What if Livia Aphael is that client?”

Xandar’s hand holding hers tensed up a little when he said, “If she is, she’s going to have a lot to answer for,”

“But that’s where things start to not make sense.” Lucianne looked at her mate like she was trying to solve a confusing puzzle as she said, “Why would she want me infertile? Up until today, I didn’t even know her name. If this is about me being bonded to Cummings, whom she hypothetically likes, then I still don’t see what her problem is. I never took him away from her. If anything, I made it easier for her when I rejected him. And…if she had the resources to make Greg disappear, why would she let him give me those incriminating evidence? She could very well make any piece of evidence vanish into thin air. Besides, from what you guys have been saying about Greg… I don’t really see why he would need any help in disappearing. He seems really capable of doing that on his own. And how does Tanner fit into all of this?”

Xandar couldn’t give her an answer so he looked at his cousin uneasily. Christian merely uttered, “Don’t look at me, cuz. I thought I was lost. But what the Queen said just made me feel more lost than before.” 1

Xandar sighed before running his fingers through Lucianne’s hair again as he suggested, “Maybe it’s not connected, sweetheart. Maybe they are all separate events.”
