The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123

When Xandar’s jet landed, the rest of the alliance along with Christian and Annie were there to greet them. Xandar brought Lucianne straight to Dr Yeil’s medical center, and everyone else followed them there despite Lucianne insisting that it wasn’t necessary for them to come.

After Dr Yeil had taken her blood to run tests, Xandar convinced Lucianne to get a full body scan done to see if the poison on the arrow was affecting any other part of her anatomy. His biggest worry was that it was damaging her bones or her neurons.

Dr Yeil and his nurse got Lucianne to lie down on a table in a medium-sized examination room with white walls. When the scan started, blue beams of light appeared from all four walls, moving up and down

Lucianne’s body before the beams moved side-to-side.

Outside the examination room, everyone was watching the process in eerie silence. Juan came to Xandar’s side, and the first thing that came out of the Alpha’s mouth was, “If she can’t bear children, would you leave her?” Everyone was stunned by Juan’s sudden question.

Christian and Annie’s eyes widened in shock. Xandar’s worried eyes on Lucianne in the room were replaced with disbelief and anger as he met Juan’s hard gaze. The King, with furrowed eyebrows, questioned rhetorically, “Would I leave her? Me? Leave her? Me?”

The King’s response held so much devotion that Juan’s hardened features softened slightly, and there were sighs of relief from most of the wolves in the room. Even so, Christian and Annie couldn’t help but feel insulted by how Juan and the other wolves were questioning Xandar’s love for Lucianne. They knew Xandar, he wouldn’t let something like this come between him and his mate.

Despite the already-eased atmosphere in the room, Xandar went on, “Juan.” He sighed in frustration before continuing, “If anything, I should be the one worried that my mate would leave me. Not the other way around. Honestly, before I knew Lucy loved kids, I didn’t even care if she didn’t want them. All I ever wanted was to be with her, to love her and to make her happy.”

Xandar averted his gaze to pressed away the tears from the comers of his eyes before his sights returned t o Lucianne in the room as he uttered, “I keep telling her that I would protect her, and time and time again, I’ve only showed how incompetent Iam as her mate. Every screw-up just feels like I’m one step closer to the love of my life…rejecting me.”

Xandar was looking at Lucianne through the one-way mirror with nothing but guilt, and the pain and fear from Lucianne rejecting him was getting suffocating. He was also wondering whether there was a mute button in his head to silence his whimpering animal for a few hours.

Suddenly, Juan patted Xandar on his shoulder, and the King met the Alpha’s warm smile as Juan said,” I’m sorry I doubted you, your Highness.”

Xandar shook his head slightly and muttered, “With Lucy’s past, you have every right to be.” Something was still bothering him so he looked at the floor and asked incoherently, “Do you think she would…will she …will Lucy leave me?”

Xandar was too afraid of the answer, so it was a surprise when Juan chuckled lightly before he said, “Well, I hope not.”
