Chapter 151

With Lucianne’s check-up after the infertility poison, the false sexual harassment allegations and the need to fill up the ministrial positions, Xandar had completely forgot to tell Christian about how he couldn’t emit the King’s Authority back in Forest Gloom.

Lucianne gave his hand a gentle squeeze to encourage him as he began, “For some reason, when we stood face-to-face with the rogues the other night, I couldn’t…channel the Authority onto them. It felt like there was a block.”

Zeke then muttered, “That means it’s like if we try to use the Alpha Authority on non-pack members. There’d be a block.”

Christian asked in dismay, “How is that even possible? The King’s Authority works on all werewolves and Lycans, netizens and rogues alike.”

Lucianne uttered in a sudden whisper, “Unless they have something that’s neither found in a werewolf nor a Lycan.”

Juan then asked, “What do you mean, Lucy?”

She looked at her brother as she thought aloud, “Rogues definitely have access to black markets, which would undoubtedly have a lot of things taken from any and every species. What if Jake’s shield is from another species like, I don’t know, humans or vampires?”

Raden showed a disgusted expression as he asked, “You’re saying Jake drank vampire blood?”

Lucianne was the only one who chuckled before she said, “No, Raden. It doesn’t work that way. The King’s Authority doesn’t target our bloodstream to make us obey, it targets our nervous system – our motor neurons, to be more precise.”

“English, please, Lucy. Peasant in the room here.” Toby complained as he waved his hand in the air.
