The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116

Xandar noticed that they were gamering curious stares, and he caressed his mate’s shoulders in hopes of soothing her a little as he suggested in a gentle voice, “How about we discuss this at my place, Lucy? We’ll see the number of Lycan warriors we need.”

Lucianne nodded numbly, and started walking towards the door with Xandar leading the way. Christian and the alliance followed closely behind. They didn’t say a word to each other throughout the drive, not even when Xandar walked Lucianne into his home and then his office. She was worried, and understandably so. But she was also quiet because she was mentally strategizing their options to keep every pack and its members alive.

The Duke and the alliance strode in with equally ominous expressions as they took their seats around the table with their King and Queen. Alpha Clement and his Gamma, Felicia, were the most curious ones since they never stepped foot in Xandar’s home until that day.

Lucianne’s eyebrows were furrowed as she cracked her brain. Her fingers were laced together and rested o n the table. Everyone stayed silent as they watched her think, awaiting her decision and her instructions.

Lucianne’s sights were still fixed on the table when she finally spoke, “How many Lycan Warriors are at your disposal, Xandar?”

He placed his large hand over her small ones as he said, “It’s ‘our’ disposal, sweetheart. And after sending the three of them to Forest Gloom yesterday, we have forty-seven left.”

“Mm.” Lucianne responded, her hardened features still not easing even with Xandar’s thumb stroking her hand.

The wolves were not surprised, and completely understood why there were so few Lycan Warriors in existence when werewolves had thousands if not more. Lycans never knew about rogue Lycans until very recently. And no right-minded rogue wolf would invade Lycan territory unless they had a death wish.

When Lucianne cleared her throat in the silent room, everyone’s backs straightened. She then spoke, “We don’t know the numbers that the rogues have on their side. And we don’t know if they’re as skillful as they claimed to be. But from their attacks these recent years, it is clear that they are not as skillful as we are. The only reason that they’re confident of winning now is because they have Lycans this time.”

She bit her bottom lip in uneasiness as she continued, “There are fifty Lycan warriors in total. And there are five packs here. Every pack will take ten each. All of you must return to your packs to fight alongside your people. Sylvia will join the Forest Gloom warriors since her pack is the only one amongst us which did not receive such a threat.”

“And you?” Juan asked, knowing full well that his sister-like figure would choose to go to the most vulnerable pack, which was Forest Gloom at the moment. She had trained Blue Crescent’s warriors so well that Juan, Hale and Lucianne herself knew that they would do just fine without her.

She locked eyes with her Alpha and firmly declared, “I’m going to Forest Gloom. I’m confident that our warriors, together with the Lycan warriors, will do just fine defending Blue Crescent, Alpha.”
