“Uh…” Christian started groping for the right words, and Lucianne raised her eyebrows waiting for a proper sentence to come out of his mouth, which never came.
Christian gave up trying and looked at Toby before he asked, “Gamma Tobias, could you show me that backflip the Queen taught us this morning again?”
Everyone saw through the Duke’s terrible attempt to change the subject. Toby looked at Lucianne for what to do next. She gave her best friend a meek smile and said, “Go on, Toby. Guide the Duke.”
“Okay, sure.” Toby agreed without question, and he gestured Christian to another mat close by.
She walked to her mate as he got up. She didn’t even bothe
Reflexively, Lucianne pushed Toby away before she moved in the opposite direction. The idea was to see who the lunatic was targeting. When the grey Lycan landed, it didn’t even take a breath before it charged towards Lucianne. It extended its long, sharp claws in the air and just when it was about to scratch her, Xandar appeared between them. The claws ended up scratching deep wounds on the King’s back instead!When Xandar turned to face the grey Lycan, his eyes were onyx. And he growled ferociously not because of the pain from the wounds that were already healing but because of his anger that there was still someone who dared try to hurt his mate.When Lucianne saw the depth of the scratches on his back, cutting right through his shirt, her eyes snapped wider in horror and worry, and she immediately placed her hand
Sasha’s mouth opened, and her voice was compelled to come out. “I-I shall live the rest of my life r-regretting what I did to you, my Q-Queen. I beg that you’ll allow me to be tortu—”“That should do it, darling.” Lucianne said, cutting off his Authority.Xandar’s expression was still hard as he faced his beautiful mate. His hand was still pressing her healing arm on his chest as he said, “She could have killed you, Lucy. What I’m doing to her now is nothing compared to what she just did.” Growls of approval came from her friends and Christian.She tried to put their anger aside, and pulled herself up to her mate’s face. Lucianne then pecked a kiss at the corner of Xandar’s lips to send the pleasur
“Ms Cummings, your uncle is here.” Sasha glowered at the policewoman who came to get her. She had no uncle. Was this a joke? When the policewoman’s face remained stern and looked like there was no room for questioning or arguments, Sasha reluctantly got out of her cell.She was taken to an interrogation room, and when the door opened, she saw a man who looked as old as her father seated with a glass of water on one side of the table, offering her a small smile when she came in.The policewoman left her and her “uncle” with a younger policeman in the interrogation room. Sasha had never seen the old man in a grey T-shirt and black pants before in her life. As soon as the door closed behind them, the man started, “Do you want to get out of here, Cummings?”
When Xandar and Lucianne got back to the hotel room, Xandar was still holding in his arousal. He just couldn’t get Lucianne’s sexiness out of his head, and it didn’t help that his eyes couldn’t stop looking at his mate’s perfect butt as she moved to the cupboard to get a fresh towel. The animal in him could not help but replay Lucianne’s sexually-arousing demeanor when she talked about punishing Sasha, and his eyes somehow moved to her firm, round butt. Lucianne was clueless about what her indecent beast was thinking, and she went to the bathroom for a shower like she always did. After the door shut behind her, Xandar wondered how much longer he could hold his heat in. He was getting warmer by the second. The sound of Lucianne’s clothes falling on the bathroom fl
With a glint in her eye, Lucianne placed one of her mate’s hands on her bare butt and the other on her breast as she began to slowly stroke his long shaft. His precum was serving as a lubricant to a good start. And more lubricant exuded as Xandar kneaded Lucianne’s breast and butt, much to her wolf’s delight.Xandar leaned in to trap her lips in a deep kiss, and his body shuddered when Lucianne’s fingers traced the hard muscles on his chest, her thumb teasing his nipples. Their lips only parted when Lucianne increased the speed on his shaft.Xandar’s vision started blurring as he moaned in ecstasy. “Ohhhh….F*ck. Lucy, don’t stop. Ohh…Baby, don’t stop.” He was squeezing her breast at this point, and his fingers dug into her butt, making her body inch towards his
Sebastian was ignoring the bombarding messages on his phone until the sound became too distracting. When he reached for his device with the intention of silencing it, he subconsciously skimmed through the news that was forwarded to him.After burning his eyes from watching a short video of his naked sister rushing for a towel on the training ground, he placed his phone back on the table as he sighed at Sasha’s stupidity.Knock. Knock.His secretary came in. “Sir, the meeting is in twenty minutes. Are there any documents you’d like me to bring to the boardroom first?”He looked at the photo of Lucianne he had framed up on his desk, and his fingers went to the picture to gently stro
As soon as the door of the interrogation room opened up for Sasha, Sebastian didn’t even wait for the policewoman escort to leave before he snapped at his sister, “WHAT THE H*LL WERE YOU THINKING?!!”Sasha glowered at her brother as she sat. Unlike him, she let the door close with a thud before she smirked and said, “It’s nice to see you too, Seb.”Sebastian emitted a low growl before he said, “DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA THE DEPTH OF SH*T YOU’RE IN RIGHT NOW?!”“Considering that I’m the one who’s here with the charges, I think I have a pretty good idea.” Sasha replied nonchalantly.“How could you do that?!”
When Lucianne and Xandar stepped into the building after Sebastian was out of sight, Lucianne paused in her steps and studied her mate in concern. Her small hand reached for his cheek, and she started stroking it with a cute, little thumb as she asked, “Are you okay, Xandar?”Xandar didn’t know why Lucianne pulled him to a stop until he heard those words. He leaned into her touch and a smile graced his features at her concern for him. He then kissed her forehead and said in a husky voice, “Of course I am. I’m always okay when I’m with you.”Despite the sparks, Lucianne narrowed her eyes and continued, “Really? So, that means you didn’t just throw a fit at Cummings back there and the other Cummings this morning. Both times when I was right next to you. And how about the time when&h
Dear readers,We’ve come to the end of “The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King”. I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you who has given this book a chance, and for following through to the very end.I hope you can spare a few minutes to rate this novel and write a review here and on Goodreads. And hopefully, you liked the story enough to drop a Gem or two (or more) :)When I started typing away on my iPad, I told myself that I wanted to give readers not just a story, but an experience. I wanted the characters to be felt, not just imagined. I hope that some of the characters have inspired you, and touched your heart in more ways than one. Perhaps you’ve even developed a crush in the course of the story XDThat being said, and without giving too much away, I hope that:i) Lucianne has exemplified strength, resilience, self-worth, and has shown you the upside of opening up to new possibilities;ii) Xandar has exemplified how important it is to let those
Tears trickled from the corners of Lucianne’s eyes as the congregation clapped when Xandar came to the end of his wedding vows. Most of the women found it so heartfelt that they were already all teared-up. Even Christian pressed away the tears from his own eyes.After Xandar’s thumb wiped away his mate’s tears on her face, Lucianne cleared her throat and began reciting her vows which went through infinite drafts before this day, “Xandar, when we met, I was so blinded by my past that I almost gave up the best thing that was presented to me. You’ve always expressed how lucky you felt to be bonded to me but from the way I see it, I’ve been the lucky one.”“You asked me for a chance, a chance to show me that you’re different but you’re not just different, dearest. The way you lo
Six weeks later, the royal wedding took place, and it was the largest wedding in Lycan and werewolf history...because werewolves were never invited to a Lycan’s wedding, let alone the Lycan King and Queen’s wedding. In the confinement units of prison, the police once again tied each Kylton to a chair and placed the same televisions from the coronation day in each of their units, courtesy of the King. They taped the heiress’s mouth after her first scream this time. Xandar decided that he would use the short period of time after the wedding and before the honeymoon to tell Lucianne about forcing the Kyltons to watch her coronation and their wedding. He didn’t tell her when he sent out the order because he didn’t want Lucianne to blink her doe eyes and talk him out of doing what he wanted to do. It wasn’t as if he
Yarrington caught the Queen before she fell, handing her to the King as soon as he reached her side. Xandar rushed her to Dr Yeil’s medical centre. Christian, Annie, the alliance, Ken and Janice all waited along the corridor outside the doctor’s room.Xandar was looking at his mate’s unconscious body on the examination table in dismay. He felt her blacking out from across the hall, and the next thing he knew, he was witnessing her petite figure falling before the Education Minister caught her in swift motion.Dr Yeil extracted some blood, and got one of his nurses to go have it analysed. Two minutes into the body examination with his second nurse, Lucianne let out a moan. Xandar rushed to her side without a second thought and asked frantically, “Baby. Baby, can you hear me?”
A week later, the wolves flew to Lycan territory again to attend Lucianne’s coronation. Every living creature from Blue Crescent flew over, and they left the safety of their pack to the warriors from an ally pack.Every Lycan and werewolf who wasn’t at the ceremony turned on their televisions or went online to watch the live broadcast, even the prisoners. Greg sat in the cafeteria with a few new friends he made, beaming as Lucianne’s face came on screen.In a separate prison, the Aphaels and Tanners stared at the screen with zero enthusiasm. Livia was the only one with a scorn when Lucianne’s face came into view.In each of their solitary confinement units, the Kyltons were barking expletives when the police brought in high resolution television
Lucianne sat up and held her breath, as did everyone else. On the side, Greg seemed like he couldn’t care less what happened to him but it did concern him that Lucianne looked worried. She shouldn’t be under any stress given how hard the past few weeks had already been for her. He was only stealing momentary glances of her before but he was finding it difficult to look away now, until his cousin threw him a glare.Greg rolled his eyes just to annoy his cousin one more time before reluctantly looking away. Lucianne felt Xandar’s jealousy, so she pecked a quick kiss on his jawline to calm her beast. Xandar’s face softened, and he closed his eyes to take a whiff of her hair, indulging in her scent.Judge Cook cleared his throat and continued reading the judgment, “By law, the Duke’s act of poisoning t
The next three weeks passed in a blur, with the Kyltons’, Aphaels’, Tanner’s and Greg’s lawyers trying their best to save their clients. Some of the arguments and rebuttals got so ridiculous that the judges held their heads like they were getting a migraine. One day before the verdict was scheduled to be delivered, every pack leader and Gamma boarded flights to the Kingdom and stayed over in hotels before making their way to court the next day.When the wolves saw each other in court, they embraced and chatted. The noise died down when the accused persons were brought into the courtroom. Almost everyone scowled at the Kyltons, Aphaels and Tanners, emitting low growls as they walked past with police escorts to be seated in the area designated for them. When Greg was brought in, however, no werewolf or Lycan made a sound. They
Ken’s face was still as hard as cold metal when he turned to Janice, and exploded, “I knew I should’ve killed Idris’s b*stard son when he looked at Lucy like she was a piece of meat! How dare he try to take my daughter’s choice from her!”Upon hearing that, the four of them holding their breaths relaxed visibly. He was mostly mad at Jake. Thank Goddess!“OUR daughter, dear.” Janice corrected her husband. She wasn’t comfortable after listening to the tale either.“Sick b*stard!” Ken spat. He then scowled at Juan and shouted, “And what the h*ll was Faint Moon’s doctors doing?! How could they not have enough blood on hand?!”Juan
At Blue Crescent, Lucianne dashed to the packhouse first while Xandar, Juan and Hale took a little more time. She wanted to butter-up her overprotective adoptive father before he met her mate. Ken and Janice didn’t live in this packhouse after retiring as Alpha and Luna but they stayed here for the past month to babysit the grandkids. Juan and Hale’s kids were still in school, so it was just the adults and the two servants in the house now.Ken was already waiting at the entrance when Lucianne ran into his open arms as she called out “Daddy!” like a little girl. After squeezing the girl he raised as his own, he managed a small smile and asked, “Buying brownie points for your mate, baby girl?”Lucianne showed her doe eyes and said, “Xandar is really nice, dad. And I really love him. Promise to
