Chapter 221 Two Hundred and Twenty-One
Greg looked up and locked eyes with her without question. Lucianne studied his eyes, and saw that they were partially onyx as well. Predatory, which matched her own. Not knowing what to expect, Lucianne uttered, "Whatever it is, ] need them alive and conscious when you're done.”
“As you wish, my Queen.” Greg took her hand and pecked another formal kiss on the back before getting up and stnding towards Livia. Livia was certain that the onyx in Greg's eyes weren't lust but pure rage! She tned to run but the policewoman behind her held her in place and told her to freeze. Tears were streaming down her cheeks as she sobbed and whimpered. Upon the Queen's affirmative nod, the policewoman uncuffed Livia and moved away from her. Greg growled as he pushed Livia's head against the wall, making a distinct crack on the concrete. When Greg started breaking her limbs with no remorse, Livia screamed her lungs out. The sound of bone-cracking made her cousin and the others quiver in fear but Lucianne and every other police person in the room remained emotionless.
After Greg flung her body against the wall a few more times, he lifted her off the ground by her neck with one hand. His onyx eyes bore into hers as his hand fractured her neck painfully slowly. She whimpered but he didn’t care. He threw her body to the floor before he told the policewoman, “Cuff her, please.”
Greg didn’t want Livia to heal completely. Only when Lucianne gave the policewoman a nod to Greg's request did she do just that, and Tanner knew she was next. Despite being held at gunpoint, she tried to make a run for it only to be pulled back by her shoulder. Greg stood before her, and his infuriated eyes burned into her fearful ones while the policewoman uncuffed her. He growled, “I TOLD you to do nothing.” The second the cuffs came loose with the sound of a click, Greg threw her body at the marble coffee table, which broke into two upon the impact. Greg then flung her against the wall before he began breaking her bones like he did with Livia. Like Livia, Tanner's screams and cnes filled the room. When he was done, Tanner couldn't even get up. She was cuffed again before she even had time to heal
At that very moment, Toby, Phelton, Juan, Zeke and Zelena walked in with two elderly men, one elderly woman and two young men in cuffs. Toby then said, “Livia Aphael’s parents and Helena Tanner's husband and sons, Lucy. Tanner's husband is acting a little...weird.”
The man had cold sweat and was panting like he was just tortured. Lucianne explained, “His mate was thrashed. He just felt whatever she felt. It's nothing.”
“Ah. That makes sense.” Toby responded casually.
When the Aphaels saw their daughter's battered body and terror-struck expression, Mrs Aphael broke down and started screaming like a madwoman as Mr Aphael started shouting at his in-laws, demanding an explanation. Lucianne walked up to them and asked, “Are you saying that you have no idea what the people in this house have been doing, Mr and Mrs Aphael?”
“What are you talking about?! What did you do to my daughter?!” Mr Aphael cried.
Greg growled and said in a low voice, “Watch your tongue in the presence of the Queen. I did this. Your daughter had been warned to NEVER hurt the Queen. YOUR DAUGHTER ASKED FOR THIS!"
Mrs Aphael yelled at Greg, “My daughter would never hurt a fly! What have you done to her?!” Greg yelled back, “NOTHING SHE DIDN'T DESERVE! SHE PLOTTED AGAINST THE QUEEN!" Lord Kylton shouted, "SO DID YOU!”
Lucianne growled, "ENOUGH!" She locked eyes with the Aphaels and said, “Your daughter is far from innocent, and what the Duke did to her was done in service of the Crown. Treason is punishable by death or eternal torture. We are just getting started with her. You'd best pray we don't find anything showing your involvement as well.”
The Aphaels’ mouths opened but before they could speak again, Greg and Lucianne growled at them in unison before the Queen spat, “Another word, and your daughter would leave this room in a worse condition than she’s in now. Is that clear?”
They sealed their mouths in resentment for their daughter's sake. Lucianne then stepped forward, and her tone demanded an answer when she asked, “Is. That. Clear?”
Toby extended a claw on each hand, and the tip of both claws touched each of the Aphaels’ throats when he ordered in a low voice, “Answer the Queen.”
The couple gritted their teeth and muttered in Lucianne’s way, “Yes.” "Yes' what?” Greg asked, and moved closer to the fear-stricken, quivering Livia. He extended his own claws, and pressed them on Livia's neck.
Like the Kyltons, the Aphaels were never forced against their will. How dare these wolves and that outcast of a Duke make them oblige a small-sized, low-born wolf! But for their precious Livia, they swallowed their pride and uttered, “Yes, my Queen.”
“YOU'RE NOT THE QUEEN! I AM! I AM!" Kelissa's fear evaporated, replaced with anger when even her own uncle and aunt addressed the scum of a wolf by that title, HER title! Apart from Kelissa's own crew, everyone growled at her, Greg being one of the loudest and most barbaric.
Lucianne scoffed as she turned to face the heiress, and asked with an arrogant smirk, “Are youe” 4
Kelissa then spat, “You will never wear the Crown! You will never be Queen! I will NEVER kneel before you! YOU ARE THE ONE WHO WILL KNEEL BEFORE ME!"
