Chapter 135

Lucianne took a moment to digest whatever Xandar had just told her before she blinked to bring herself out of her daze and asked, “Is there even such a thing?”

Xandar’s thumb tried to smoothen the lines on her tense forehead as he explained, “Not in a long time, sweetheart.”

After another moment of thinking, Lucianne said, “That makes no sense. I am not even a Queen, at least not in technical terms.”

Xandar smiled wider as he whispered excitedly, “That’s the thing! You’ve been our Queen long before anyone knew! Lucy, this is amazing!”

“Are you sure, Xandar? Don’t you have to mark me before I even stand a chance to get that power?”

“Well, you just proved that I don’t need to.” Xandar said matter-of-factly,

Lucianne was still skeptical. “No, that can’t be right. How do you even measure the level of energy required before it can be regarded as…”

Xandar planted a deep kiss on her lips before he released them to explain, “There’s never a need to measure such a power, my love. You felt the King’s Authority before. There’s no explanation for it, you just feel it.”

Lucianne pondered for a moment before she asked, “How do you feel yours when you radiate it?”

“Uh…it’s basically just emotions associated with the need to emit the Authority”

“What does that mean?” She cocked her head to one side and asked in bewilderment,

Xandar’s hand went to touch the back of his neck as he explained, “Well, uh…when I want to activate the King’s Authority, I think of the person I’m trying to compel. And I couple that intention with a reason for the compulsion, harnessing the emotions that come with that reason.”

His lilac eyes met her black ones, and his voice turned soft as he continued, “In the rogue’s case the other day, the reason was to keep you safe at all costs. I harness all the emotions I felt from needing to keep you safe. The stronger the reason, the stronger the emotions, the more powerful the Authority will be.”
