The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King novel Chapter 192

Chapter 192

At Blue Crescent, Lucianne dashed to the packhouse first while Xandar, Juan and Hale took a little more time. She wanted to butter up her overprotective adoptive father before he met her mate. Ken and Janice didn’t live in this packhouse after retiring as Alpha and Luna but they stayed here for the past month to babysit the grandkids. Juan and Hale’s kids were still in school, so it was just the adults and the two servants in the house now.

Ken was already waiting at the entrance when Lucianne ran into his open arms as she called out “Daddy!” like a little girl. After squeezing the girl he raised as his own, he managed a small smile and asked, “Buying brownie points for your mate, baby girl?” 3

Lucianne showed her doe eyes and said, “Xandar is really nice, dad. And I really love him. Promise to go easy on him?”

Ken narrowed his eyes and retorted, “No man is nice, baby girl. I thought I taught you that.”

“What about you, dad? You’re nice.” Lucianne continued to speak with innocent eyes.

Ken sighed His heart always melted whenever Lucianne looked at him like that, and he patted her twice on the head like he did ever since she was merely a child as he said, “You know I’m only nice to my little girl. As for your mate…if I kill him, I promise it’ll b e a quick death.”

Before Lucianne could protest, Ken smiled wider and said, “It was a joke, Lucy. Lighten up. Go help your mother. She’s in the living room arranging the cookie jars.”

Lucianne was not going to leave until he did. She knew Ken. In her schooling years, guys have come over to the packhouse for tutoring sessions since she did well in science and mathematics, and Ken was strict with all of them even though Lucianne assured him that they were just classmates, nothing more. Now, Ken was going to meet her fiancé. There was no telling how he would behave when he met Xandar.

Xandar, Juan and Hale were waiting patiently behind the father-and-daughter pair, being careful not to interrupt them. They heard the last part of the conversation, which did not ease Xandar’s anxiety at all. Juan went to his father first, and the two shook hands like formal acquaintances rather than embrace each other like father and son. Ken then hit Juan at the back of his head with his palm, as if it was for disobeying him.

Juan knew exactly what that was for. Ken had been complaining non-stop about Juan giving Xandar his blessing to propose to Lucianne BEFORE Ken gave his own. And Ken didn’t even want to get started on the fact that Lucianne was already marked BEFORE he met the idiot who did it!
