The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119

The rogue across the river was Jake, Alpha Clement’s brother.

Xandar’s features stiffened, and he emitted a low growl in Jake’s way for speaking to Lucianne in that flirtatious manner. Jake had short, black hair with a good build to match his flawless bad-boy look.

His stormy-grey eyes studied the King only momentarily before his sights returned to Lucianne. “I heard that you got yourself a King, Lucy. Can’t say I’m surprised you managed that, given your ability to charm…”

It was Lucianne’s turn to growl, which seemed to have turned on a switch in Jake as she spat, “Leave now, Jake. You know this won’t end well for you and your friends.” Xandar’s eyes widened in realization at the mention of the former Alpha’s name.

Despite Jake’s arousing thoughts at Lucianne’s feistiness, he scoffed darkly and skimmed her body in a black t-shirt and white shorts before he asked thetorically, “Are you sure, Lucy? Have you even met my friends?”

As if they were summoned, shifted Lycans appeared by his side. Lucianne gave out the order for more of their own warriors to join them. Xandar tried using the King’s Authority on them but it was odd that it wasn’t working.

Jake saw what Xandar was trying to do and huffed, “You didn’t think we’d come without being shielded from your Authority, did you, your Highness? We knew you’d try to use it but in the spirit of a fair fight, we’d thought it’d be best if we had a fighting chance.” His eyes moved to Lucianne again as he continued,” Something that this sweetheart once taught me.”

Clement, Tate and Xandar growled in unison as Clement spat, “You are in no position to call her that!”

Jake raised his eyebrow before scowling at his brother. “Like you were never in a position to claim her? Sneaking out to train with her all those times and you never grew the balls to tell her you’ve wanted her since she was sixteen!” Jake scoffed and continued, “You were too needy and too much of a coward to mark her anyway.”

Lucianne took over as she shouted, “Wake up, Jake! You were the one who was cast out, WITH the support and approval of your own pack members. The fact that you’ve had to resort to blackmailing the strongest packs to get me here shows that you’re the coward.”

A female’s voice then came from behind Jake, “Hmph. That’s sad. We thought you’d see those misleading notes as a strategy. So sorry to disappoint.” It was Iris, the sister Clement casted out with Jake.

“It’s foul play.” Tate spat in her direction.

Iris’s angered amber eyes fixed on Tate, and everyone saw the look of betrayal and infuriation from the tall beauty as she glared at the Alpha and said, “I warned you it was a mistake to choose her over me, Tate. I would’ve made you happy! I was ready to rule alongside you as your Luna!”

Tate didn’t even need to think before declaring firmly, “You were just one of the many women who offered sex. And being the immature d*ck that I was, I took it without considering the repercussions. But I can tell you that I NEVER saw any women I slept with as my Luna, especially not YOU.”

That hit a nerve. Iris’s eyes glistened in anger. Her fiery hair color somehow enhanced the fury she was feeling within as she hissed, “She never gave you the experience I gave you in bed. She had never even given you one single experience in bed, and you saw her as your Luna?!”

Tate growled ferociously at Iris before declaring, “Unlike you, she’s not an Alpha-seducing whore! You’re a n IMBECILE to think that you can ever compare yourself to her! She’s done more for White Blood as an ally than you can EVER hope to do as Luna!” Keeping Juan’s warning in mind, Tate restrained himself from saying anything further.

Neither Iris nor Tate had to look at Lucianne, or point to her, for every single person there, except Lucianne herself, to know that they were both referring to her. 2 .

The Lycans were exchanging confused looks, wondering if their suspicions of the Alpha’s romantic interest for the Queen was an absurd thought or a real thing. Xandar was trying his best not to lose his cool.

Lucianne noticed her agitated mate, assuming that he was angry because Jake and Iris were pushing hers, Clement’s and Tate’s buttons, so she linked him, “This is what Jake and his cronies do, dearest. They mess with your mind to make you lose focus before a fight. Don’t let them get to you.’ 1
