Evie let her mother pull her out from the embrace but the little girl stubbornly took back her hand with force before telling Lucianne out loud, “When I grow up, I want to be brave and pwetty. Just like you, pwetty Lucy!”
The restaurant went silent, and Xandar was the proudest and happiest person in the room. Lucianne looked a bit embarrassed but she pecked a kiss on Evie’s cheek as she said in all certainty, “Evie, when you grow up, you’ll be brave and pretty. Just like you.” Lucianne’s index finger tapped lightly on Evie’s
Stina’s PenTeam Evie or Russell? 😏

In both the Lycans and werewolf communities, the words ‘mine’ and ‘yours’ have strong connotations, signifying that one is the other’s mate, bonded by the Moon Goddess. So, when Lucianne used the word ‘yours’, loosely interpreted, meant her. Her question may be asking how Xandar would react if someone took her away from him. That was not a good thing to ask, especially when he almost lost control with the rogue Lycan that morning during the interrogation.Onyx shades came and left Xandar’s eyes. He smirked and kissed the back of her hand that he was holding onto before declaring, “If they tried to take something that was mine, I’d take it back. If they tried to take someone I’m trying to make mine, I’d kill them or torture them, dependi

Sasha’s doubtful voice rang through Livia’s phone call, “You sure she didn’t know who you were? You were straddling on her ex-mate for Goddess sake!”Like Livia needed reminding. And for the third time Sasha’s asking, Livia was running low on patience as she said, “It didn’t look like she knew. She looked lost but she was also trying to figure it out.”Livia sighed before peeping through her curtains to see if anyone was outside her house. She then uttered in a worried tone, “Nothing would happen to me, right? I mean, Greg only said he’ll come for me if I tried to hurt her. I didn’t do anything. It was a coincidence! An unfortunate coincidence!”

The next morning, Lucianne thought of looking for clues about the intruder who followed her and Xandar to the freesia field. But when she recalled it rained for a few hours the previous night, she aborted her plan. Any tracks or trails left would’ve been washed away. She shifted and began running down the familiar path.When Lucianne reached the river, she was a little disappointed that Xandar wasn’t there. But when she started sniffing again, she caught a faint scent of acacia wood and forest trees so she turned to look around in anticipation. When she found nothing, she started sniffing the air before a large pair of arms lifted her off the ground.‘Morning, beautiful.’ Xandar brought her face to face with him, his animal smiling in radiance.&nbs

When dawn broke, Xandar ran with Lucianne’s wolf back to the clearing behind the hotel before returning home to shower and change for breakfast. After getting ready, he sped to the dining hall and instantly spotted his mate’s small back as soon as he entered. It was the first time she was standing so close to the entrance that he might be able to surprise her before everyone bowed to give away his presence.He took quick but quiet steps towards her, taking advantage of the fact that his mate was concentrating on what seemed to be a very serious conversation with the alliance members. When he stood close enough, his hand went around her waist and rested on her abdomen as she gasped at his sudden touch. He made it to her just in time before everyone started bowing his way.After pecking a kiss on her cheek from her side, he

Lucianne shrugged, “Until we have more information, we can’t be sure either. Our best guess is that killing pack leaders is just a cover-up. It’s no secret that most rogues were rejected from their packs, by their Alphas or Lunas. So, killing them would make it seem like it was for…” “Revenge. Rather than to siphon funds.” Xandar finished, finally understanding. Christian then muttered ominously, “That’s one very-carefully thought-out system.” Xandar locked eyes with his cousin, “We’ve been kept in the dark for too long. Innocent people are dying. We have to step up and speed up this investigation.” Lucianne suddenly picked up a familiar scent. As Lucianne continued to sniff the familiar scent as subtly as s

At training, the Lycans were showing improvement. The alliance didn’t fight. They watched and gave feedback, much to the dismay of Juan, Tate and Zeke, who all preferred to spar than watch and talk.Lucianne watched and gave feedback to the Lycan warrior, Phelton, and Gamma Benedict. After losing two matches to the Gamma, Phelton finally came out victorious in their third match. Benedict shook his hand and congratulated him graciously on the win before Lucianne did the same. After thanking his opponent, Phelton knelt and kissed the Queen’s hand before standing back up to convey his thanks.After watching another three pairs, Juan came up to her and mind-linked, ‘Lucy, just one. One spar.’‘What

After training and lunch, the alliance met at Xandar’s villa. They gathered in the King’s huge study, and the cousins got spare chairs and a foldable table out of the basement. They laid the report on the round table, and Toby and Sylvia offered to take notes while they discussed, reading through the report again together to see if their thoughts matched those of everyone around them. Xandar noticed that Lucianne was checking the time every few minutes but he didn’t think much of it until her phone chimed in between their discussions. Lucianne stood from her seat as she said, “I have to go now. My ride’s here. I’ll see you guys in the dining hall tonight.” Xandar reflexively held onto her elbow and asked frantically, “What ride?” She furrowed her eyebrows in conf

Annie placed her cup back on the saucer before she explained, “I’m sure you’ve heard about my past already, especially when it comes to the other Duke.”The fact that she struggled to say Greg’s name earlier and was avoiding saying his name now didn’t go unnoticed. The fear and discomfort was very much alive and lingering in Annie even after all these years.Lucianne’s face was unperturbed as she said softly, “I have.”Annie smiled meekly before she took a deep breath and said, “When I slowly started to believe that Christian really loved me, my fear of the people he works with never really went away. The other Duke was the worst but it wasn’t just him. Some ministers and random people we’d see at govern

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
The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King Chapter 198
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
