The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108

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 hands over the woundst o hasten the healing process with the mate bond. Xandar’s hand held her body protectively behind his.

The grey Lycan’s eyes widened in shock at what it just did. It looked at its own claws that were stained by blood, the King’s blood. Upon Xandar’s growl, it retracted its claws as it whimpered audibly and bowed in apology and submission to its ruler.

When the scratches healed, Lucianne moved to her mate’s side and asked frantically, “Xandar, are you okay? Do you still feel any pain? Any internal injury?”

When his onyx eyes fell on her worried expression, his gaze softened. He planted a deep kiss on her forehead and said, “I’m all healed, baby. Thank you.”

Lucianne let out a sigh of relief as she wrapped her arms affectionately around his, gluing his arm to her chest and resting her temple on his biceps as she muttered ‘Thank Goddess’. That was when Xandar noticed that Lucianne’s hands were blood-stained, with his blood. He lifted one of her hands up and started licking her palm to get it cleaned. 1

Lucianne then said, “Xandar, this is nothing. You don’t have to…”

“Just let me, Lucy.” He used his trump card against her, and she couldn’t find it in herself to argue further as he licked on it again and again until they heard a low, suppressed growl from the still shifted Lycan.

Xandar’s almost-lilac eyes turned onyx again as he glared down at the Lycan who was glowering a t Lucianne. Lucianne sighed in frustration before taking away her hand, and going to a nearby bag that belonged to someone else, where there was a towel placed right on top. She lifted the towel u p, and asked the Lycan nearby, “Can I borrow this?”

“O-Of course, my Queen.”

“Thanks, Adeline.” Lucianne said and strode back to where Xandar and the lunatic were. Adeline, the minister’s daughter, was surprised that the Queen knew her name. She didn’t recall ever speaking to her

Lucianne then handed the lunatic the towel from a safe distance as she said flatly, “Just shift

back, Ms Cummings.”

There were shocked gasps from the wolves and Lycans who could hear Lucianne. Some were already starting to gossip. Sasha’s angered-glistening eyes turned a darker shade of onyx as she reached for the towel. When she was close enough, her retracted claws extended in an instant and she scratched a deep wound along Lucianne’s arm, making Lucianne’s blood splatter on the grass around her.

The towel fell from Lucianne’s hand as the pain shot up her arm like fire. She groaned in pain and gritted her teeth to cope with it. Xandar dashed to Lucianne’s side. Shocked gasps filled the training ground, and the alliance members who were initially rooted in shock at Sasha’s attack on the King were dashing towards her way now. Christian and Toby reached them first as they stood around Sasha, preparing to restrain her if she attempted to harm the Queen again.

Xandar took off his shirt and gently pressed her deeply-injured arm on his bare chest to heal her faster with their bond. Lucianne’s teeth clenched, and her partially glistened eyes squinted slightly in pain as Xandar placed her wound against his chest. The sight caused Xandar to emit a second growl that was more ferocious than the first. And when he growled again, he activated the King’s Authority to compel Sasha to shift back as the alliance members arrived.
