The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King
Chapter 183

Greg only woke up when another knock on his door came. If that wasLivia again, he didn’t know if he could restrain his animal fromscratching her face and tearing out her organs. As he thought aboutthe endgame drawing near, he walked to the door and opened it.

To his relief, it was only the heiress, who invited him to have tea. Gregplayed dumb and asked, “What did I do? I left the toilet seat u p thistime.”

Kelissa rolled her eyes and said, “It's just a grateful gesture for youryears of supporting our business, your Grace.” Liar. But not a bad one,actually

“Fine.” Greg groaned. So much for wanting to stay in his room untilLucianne came and break him out of this sh*thole. He still found ithilarious that the Kyltons gave him access to Wi-Fi without consideringthat he would use it to pinpoint their location Maybe it was becausethey didn’t know that he could still mind-link without detection to sendout orders.

As Greg walked with the heiress, he muttered, “I'm impressed to seeyou so composed after the news all over the internet, Kylton.”

That was definitely the right thing to say for someone who didn't hearthe heiress's mad scream. Kelissa's rage showed again as she replayedthe news in her head. But instead of throwing a fit, she simply smirkedand said, “Well, I leam from the best.”

Greg prayed that she didn’t mean him. He didn’t want this failure to behis student. When they entered the tea room, the Lord and Ladypaused their discreet chatter and smiled at the Duke. Sasha and Liviastopped their gossiping, too. Tanner looked like the most left out onethere.

“What the f*ck do these losers want?’, Greg thought as he retumedeveryone's fake smiles.

After he was seated and given Earl Grey, Kelissa got to the point, “Well,your Grace. You've read the news. It seems that our plan has gonedown the drain, and things are...complicated now.”

“No, sh*t. Is that why I'm here? To whine and complain with all of you?”“No, your Grace.” Lord Kylton began before his daughter's scowl madehim lean back for her to continue speaking.

The heiress turned back to the Duke with a less hostile gaze anduttered, “We're not here to complain. We're here to talk about whatcould have gone wrong, and, if possible, to replace a solution together.”“Ah, that's not so bad.” Greg leaned back into his seat and crossed hislegs before he asked despite already knowing the answer, “So, who'sstarting?”

Kelissa, as the leader, said, “I think I should go first. I propose that wecome up with a Plan B as soon as possible, and execute it with allimmediacy. The plan we sent to the rogues took too long to execute.Had we brought the plan forward, the rogues would've gotten the workdone before the... infiltration...happened. We were hoping that you'dhave some form of connections to get the job done, your Grace.”

Livia then asked, “The plan is to kill the wolf now, right?”

Greg's hand supporting his chin balled into a tight fist, and he keptpicturing Lucianne in his head to restrain his growling animal that wastrying to push itself forward.

Kelissa glanced at Greg before she showed her cousin a fake smile andsaid, “Let's leave death aside for now. We were hoping that you'd havesome kind of resources, your Grace. We could consider somethingless—"

Livia butted in again, “I don't get why death should be left aside. Thewolf is marked. The only way to get to your end goal now is to kill her.Do you need her alive for some reason?”

The Duke thought this was a perfect time to start a front-row seat soapopera, so he tumed to Kelissa and asked with a taunting smile, “Are yougoing to tell her?”

Livia's eyes widened when she asked, “Tell me what?”

Kelissa scowled at Greg but the Duke was not going to take back whathe just said. Livia repeated her question, louder and fiercer this time.She earned a glare from her uncle and aunt but she couldn't care less.Next to her, Sasha smirked when she caught on, and she said, “Youwere promised the wolf, weren't you, your Grace? That's why theheiress is also pinned on keeping her alive.”

Greg was impressed that, of all people, the dumb blonde got theanswer. “So, there is a brain in that head of yours, Cummings. Bravo.”Livia's eyes turned onyx, and her hard stare was on Kelissa when shegritted her teeth and said, “You promised that he was MINE."

Kelissa was unperturbed as she responded, “If the circumstanceschange, our plans have to change with it. The end goal comes first,Livia.”

Livia scoffed darkly and added, “You think you can just overruleeveryone and sweep away what the rest of us were promised when wedecided to help you? You think you can make us fall in line and youthink you know everything? Well, let me tell you something you don'tknow: Sasha already bought Oleander from the rogue Alpha, sayingthat it was to kill Seb when it is actually t o kill YOU after you tore thewolf away from the King!”

“LIV!” Sasha exclaimed in shock at her secret coming out from herconfidant's mouth.

Greg muttered in amusement, “Ooo...plot twist.” Well, not for him sincehe eavesdropped on everyone's conversations in the house. 3

Kelissa hissed, “Shut up, your Grace! Just because my promise to youremains intact, it doesn’t mean you have to flaunt it.”

Greg's sharp hearing picked up something not far away from the otherside of the door but from the blank looks on everyone else's faces, heconcluded that he was the only one who heard those sounds. So, heplayed dumb and responded to the fuming Kelissa,” Flaunt? Heh!Kylton, get real. You've already decided to kill Lucianne. And youalready backstabbed me when you sent the rogue to forcibly mark theQu-"

“Wolf.” Kelissa insisted, her eyes showing some onyx shades despite herparents’ surprised looks when Greg mentioned things that were notdiscussed with any advisor.

Greg raised his eyebrows at the heiress's interruption, and remindedhimself that he was going to be there for only another few moreminutes at most. The Duke gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice, “Ifyou read the news properly, Kylton, you'd know that she is one of usnow. She's a Lycan. She's the Lycan Queen.” At that very moment, thedoor fell off its hinges as it burst open.
