The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

When the second round of growls followed, Lucianne laughed hysterically for a short moment before her black and onyx eyes tumed sapphire, and her Authority radiated from her being. It was the first time Greg felt that energy from her, and it felt magnificent! In fact, it felt stronger than the late King Lucas’s Authority! Everything about Lucianne was just so... different. 1

Lucianne directed her Authority at Kelissa, compelling her to kneel. Kelissa felt something from Lucianne but she didn’t know what it was. Suddenly, her legs gave way, and she fell on both knees, her head was forced down as Lucianne stood right in front of her, allowing the heiress a good view of her white stilettos. 2

When Lucianne decided that she had made her point, her human eye color returned, and she asked Phelton to escort Greg to fetch all the recording devices scattered in the residence. Greg approached the deputy minister, and extracted one of the devices from under the couch before handing it to Phelton as they left the room together.

Even when Lucianne’s Authority wasn't radiating anymore, the heiress was still stuck to the ground. Neither Kelissa's body nor her head could move. It was getting uncomfortable. A few more inches lower and her neck may break.

Sasha, who was compelled by the King's Authority before, recognised the compulsion, and she muttered, “No, it's not possible.”

Lucianne walked towards Sasha as she ordered, “Uncuff this one.”

As soon as the Oleander cuffs came off, Lucianne threw a blow in Sasha's face, making her slump against the wall. How dare this low-life of a wolf punch her like that?! Sasha's rage took over, and she pushed herself off the wall before she charged at Lucianne. Lucianne waited for the minister's daughter to charge towards her before stepping to the side and tripping her, making Sasha fall t o the ground with a loud thud.

Lucianne then noted aloud, “It seems that prison walls can't hold you, Ms Cummings.”

Sasha got back up, and tried to land a few punches on Lucianne, who easily dodged her efforts with crossed-arms as she continued speaking, “You know, I've had so many opportunities to kill you, Sasha, and so many reasons to do it but I never did it.”

Lucianne blocked Sasha's punch with a firm grip over her fist, and started cracking the bones there before Sasha’s other hand came to attempt to land another blow, which Lucianne also blocked as she started cracking the bones in that one, too. Sasha let out an agonizing scream as she tried to retract her fists but to no avail.

“Prison would have kept you safe and alive but you had to come out, didn’t you? It's time I stopped giving you chances, Ms Cummings. This ends here. But don't worry, the death sentence I'm offering you is the easy way out.” Sasha's animal was surfacing, and Lucianne threw Sasha, face down, against the floor.

The sharp tip of Lucianne’s stiletto plunged through Sasha's nape. The heel went right through her neck and broke the bone there, making drops of blood splatter on Lucianne’s leg and the lower part of her white dress. As she moved away from Sasha's lifeless body, Toby muttered to himself, “Hm. So that's why she chose to wear heels for this occasion.”

The rest of the alliance and policemen came in with the Kyltons' twelve bodyguards who tried to flee as soon as they saw the magnitude of the attack against their employers. Christian and Xandar came in last, and the King made a beeline for his Queen

right after Lucianne made Kelissa stand and lift her head up with her Authority.

Xandar's eyes zoomed in on the splattered blood on her dress and legs, and he grabbed her arms to tum her to face him as he exclaimed in worry, “Baby! What did I say about being careful?! Are you hurt?” Lucianne heard the palpitations of his heart, and she furrowed her eyebrows at his unnecessary panic before saying matter-of factly, “No, Xandar. You'd know that.”

Realization hit him that their emotions were interwoven, and he didn't feel any pain when he was away from Lucianne so she couldn't have been hurt. His animal cooed at the thought of being bound to the amazing creature before them forever, and his heart rate steadied. His human part locked eyes with her and muttered in bliss, “Mm. That's true.”

He looked at her dress again. The blood still bothered him, so Lucianne casually explained, “This was just from impaling Sasha Cummings's neck with my heel, darling. She's dead now. And I let Greg beat up Livia Aphael and Helena Tanner, by the way.” 1

Xandar glanced at Sasha's lifeless body before he nodded in acknowledgement and muttered, “It's about time.” A sweet peck on her temple, and he said, “Well done, my little freesia. We'll get you some new shoes later, okay?” Lucianne nodded dotingly, making her beast smile with radiance as he nuzzled her nose to elicit her soft and shy giggle. 1

Lucianne cupped his face to stop him from going any further, and that was when Xandar realized that her hand smelled different. H e took her hand, and gave his mate a puzzled look. Lucianne shrugged and, with her doe eyes, said, “Greg. Just two formal pecks, darling.”

Lucianne felt his jealousy and insecurity before Xandar started sucking on her hand, wiping his cousin's scent off and leaving his

own there. When he was satisfied, he uttered, “There. All better now.” Lucianne rolled her eyes despite her increasingly-visible blushes, and said, “We still have a few things to deal with, my King, Let's stay focused.”

With nothing but affection, he responded, “As you wish, my Queen.” Both their smiles faltered when their sights converged on Kelissa, who just stood there like a statue as tears of anger streamed down her cheeks. Xandar then said in a low voice, “I have to say, I'm impressed that you're containing yourself, Kylton.”

Lucianne then clarified, “Oh, that's me, darling. I used the Authority to mute her and make her stand still. Here, let me get rid of it.” Lucianne removed her Authority over Kelissa with a blink of her eyes.

Once the Authority was lifted, the heiress’s stiff body came loose, and she hissed, “You could only do that because of Xand-."

Xandar's voice was low when he growled and said, “My mate can do just fine on her own. And I am your King. You WILL address me by my title.”

Kelissa's eyes of despair met Xandar's onyx orbs when she said, “She can't be Queen, X-"

Xandar growled and pinned Kelissa's neck to the wall, which was when Greg and Phelton returned. Greg noticed Sasha's body, and actually felt lighter knowing that she was dead, unable to hurt Lucianne again. He wondered who killed her, and while everyone was staring at his cousin attacking the heiress, Greg's investigative eyes traced the trail of bloodstains on the light carpet to Lucianne’s stiletto, and he smiled to himself.

Kelissa's hands tried to pull Xandar's fingers away but to no avail. He was too strong. So, while her air supply was running out, her hand reached out to touch his cheek, making Xandar growl again before throwing her body at the cabinet of ornaments, shattering the glass casing. He then wiped off the sensation that Kelissa's touch left on his cheek with his sleeve in haste, like her touch carried a transmittable virus. Lucianne could feel his disgust and his animal's anger at what the heiress just did. 1

His homicidal tone sent a shiver down everyone's spines when he declared, “NO ONE can touch me but MY MATE.”

Lady Kylton then pleaded, “Your Highness, please. Don't hurt her! She's innocent!”NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“Innocent?” Greg scoffed, “She led the conspiracy to send rogues to attack the Queen on more than one occasion, discreetly asking the rogue Alpha to mark her against her will and you're calling that piece of dirt an innocent?”

Upon hearing that, Xandar flung Kelissa's body against another cabinet. The glass shattered all over her body like the first.

Lord Kylton then shouted at Greg, “YOU'RE PART OF THE CONSPIRACY, YOU SCUM! AND YOU TOLD CUMMINGS ABOUT US WHEN SHE WANTED TO SENT ROGUES TO THE JEWEL PACK! YOU MADE THAT CALL THAT SENT THEM THERE!" All eyes converged on Greg.
