The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King novel Chapter 113

Chapter 113

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 stroke her cheek. He wondered if she was okay. Numbly, he told his secretary, “Tell Boscow to take charge today. There’s somewhere I have to be.”

The secretary was surprised. Sebastian never missed a board meeting. Still, she didn’t ask any further questions and left after uttering, “Yes, sir.”

Sebastian left his office and went to the florist to get some fresh Irrelises before heading for the dining hall. At the dining hall gates, the guards refused to let him in, saying that he was not authorized to enter. H e tried to argue that the corruption charges against his father were not proven yet so Minister Cummings was technically still innocent but the guards didn’t give a damn.

One of them threw him a glare and said, “After what Ms Cummings had done to the Queen and the King just this moming, you’d be a fool to think that we would let you anywhere near their Highnesses.”

“I would never hurt the Queen.” Sebastian spat in defence, though some part of his heart ached when he said that. By acknowledging that Lucianne was the Queen, he was admitting that she was the King’s mate, not his.

“Can’t say I believe you, Cummings. We didn’t think your sister would hurt the Queen either, especially after her Highness graciously allowed her on the training ground. The Queen even showed her mercy today after being attacked herself! The King could’ve very well killed your sister if the Queen didn’t stop him. Be gone, Cummings. Go see your sibling instead.”

Sebastian’s eyes were getting darker by the second. How dare they think he’d hurt Lucianne! He loved her! Mates or not, he was certain that no one held his heart but Lucianne. He’d do anything to win her back. He just wanted to see if she was okay.

There was no way he would leave without seeing her first. Sebastian’s fur started surfacing, and the guard noticed. His posture straightened as he prepared himself for a possible attack from the minister’s son.

“Owen, are you okay?” A sweet voice of concern rang through the two men’s ears. Their heads turned to the source, and they saw Lucianne walking towards them in graceful steps with Xandar by her side, his hand around her waist as his onyx eyes glowered at Sebastian Sebastian didn’t even want to start guessing why they were late when they usually reach the dining hall on time.

“Your Highnesses.” Owen’s cold and hardened expression turned warm and welcoming as he bowed.

Xandar and Lucianne returned his bow, and after they all lifted their heads, Owen spoke with a warm smile, “My Queen, we heard what happened. May I ask: how’s the arm?”

Lucianne smiled graciously as she lifted her arms in his direction to show him that she was all healed as she replied, “Good as new, Owen. Thank you for asking.”

“That’s very excellent news indeed, your Highness.” Owen said with the same friendly smile. They both met the previous year, and Owen called her ‘Lucy’ but as soon as she became Xandar’s mate, Owen and his partner both stubbomly insisted on addressing Lucianne by her future royal title, despite the many times Lucianne said it was okay to call her like they always did.
