The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King novel Chapter 104

Chapter 104

After saying their goodbyes and hanging up on the Duke and Duchess, Xandar’s arms circled his mate’s body as she snuggled in his chest. Lucianne’s phone vibrated again. Xandar inhaled her scent from her hair as she removed the ‘Get ready for dinner’ reminder from her notifications bar.

Xandar chuckled at her cute habit and suggested, “How about we just call room service and spend some quiet time together tonight, my love?”

Her affectionate black orbs met his lilac ones as she pecked a kiss on his lips before whispering,” I’d like that.”

Xandar beamed, and with his arm still around Lucianne’s waist, he picked up the receiver from the table next to him and ordered steak for his mate and spaghetti for himself. They enjoyed each other’s touch and scents while they waited.

Lucianne was getting addicted to the rhythm of Xandar’s heartbeat. It was the most comforting and assuring sound she’d ever heard. It made her feel safe, and it made her feel loved. Xandar’s eyes were closed the whole time he breathed in and out from her hair.

After a moment he muttered, “I love your scent, Lucy. You smell like home.”

Lucianne couldn’t stop the tears from escaping her eyes. Home. The word reached into the deepest parts of her heart, sending a gentle warmth throughout her body as the feelings of belonging, desire and love flow through her. When Xandar felt his shirt absorbing some of her teardrops, he panicked.

He immediately lifted her chin up and asked in concern, “What is it, baby? What’s wrong? Is it the pain from the poison?”

Lucianne chuckled lightly and shook her adorable little head before pressing her lips deeply on her confused mate’s lips. When she pulled away, she whispered firmly, “You feel like home, Xandar. My home.” Xandar’s own eyes began glistening in pure joy and happiness as he planted another deep kiss on her lips. They only pulled away when the doorbell rang.

The staff came in with a long trolley with their food, and set it right in front of the couch. After leaving with a generous tip, Lucianne was about to dig in before Xandar took her plate away. She looked at him in bewilderment but when he took the knife and fork that were already in her hands, she got pissed. “Xandar, that’s my food!”

Xandar chuckled at her annoyed expression before pecking a kiss on her cheek. “I’m feeding you, my love. You just recovered. You should take things slow.”

“Not this slow!” Lucianne tried to reach for her plate again but Xandar held it away from her before calming her down with another kiss on her lips. When their lips parted, his eyes penetrated into hers as he uttered, “Let me, Lucy. Let me feed you.” Another brief kiss, then he added, “Let me love

you.” 1

Lucianne sighed in defeat and said, “It’s not fair, Xandar. You know I can’t say no to you when you

use that line.”

Xandar’s expression brightened in realization, “Wait, really? I didn’t know that! So, our Goddess is fair then! I used to think that she gave you those innocent doe-eyes to make me melt and give in but gave me nothing to do the same to you.” he pecked another kiss on her cheek and said,”

He placed her on his lap and started slicing small cubes of the steak. After two small bites, Lucianne complained, “Xandar, my mouth can fit more than that! Just cut them a little bigger!” .
