The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67

The next morning, Lucianne got out of bed and almost tripped over one of the many paper bags of books in her room. This made her recall the entire day she spent with Xandar, and she smiled to herself in the dark as she changed for her morning run.

When her white wolf was approaching the same spot she went to every morning, she caught the scent of acacia wood and forest trees before Xandar’s Lycan came into view.

His animal got up from where it was sitting and approached her slowly. Its lilac eyes fixed on hers as he mind-linked, ‘Morning, beautiful.’

“Good morning, Xandar. I don’t recall having a date this morning.’ She teased.

He smirked, ‘I was here from a morning run. Bumping into you is just a bonus.’Xandar lowered himself and buried his nose in Lucianne’s neck as he linked, ‘But if you want to call i ta date, I’ll be more than happy to oblige.’

His animal then inhaled deeply, taking in her scent greedily. Lucianne stopped herself from moaning as she linked, ‘X-Xandar, you very well know I come to this spot every single morning.’

Was it this spot? I guess that was why I found it so familiar.’ He continued to mock ignorance in a coquettish tone. He took another deep breath from her neck and asked, ‘How did you sleep last night?

‘G-Good.’ She fumbled on her words as she swallowed another moan in her throat before she asked, ‘You?’

‘Mm. It was okay until I woke up missing you.’ His head moved away from Lucianne’s neck and his lilac eyes met her black orbs as he nuzzled his nose with hers before asking, ‘Did you miss me?’ There wasn’t cockiness in his voice, just anticipation and nervousness. It was clear that the insecurity he felt from the previous night had not dissipated. 2

‘I did.’ Lucianne shyly admitted. She then nuzzled her nose with his chin and along his jawline before pulling herself away to lock gaze with him.

A huge grin was spread across Xandar’s face. His eyes sparked pure happiness. He didn’t expect Lucianne to offer his Lycan such an intimate gesture on their second encounter with each other. Its arms reached out to gently lift the beautiful white wolf off the ground before placing her on his lap. Xandar pulled her close to his chest as he leaned against a tree.

His hand cautiously started stroking her white fur along the length of her back. Lucianne’s animal purred in bliss at his touch. And his Lycan sought comfort and peace from the sound she made and from the softness of her fur against his palm. ‘Adorable’, he thought to himself.

When dawn broke, Lucianne pushed herself up from Xandar’s lap. But before she could leap off, he lifted her by her forelimbs to face him as he asked frantically through their link,

Where are you going?’

Lucianne responded simply, ‘Back to my room. We have an interrogation session with the others at 9 a.m. I have to get myself cleaned up and get ready. You should, too.’

He then pressed her into his chest and hugged her like she was a plush toy as he linked, ‘Just a few more minutes. It’s not that late yet. And you’re so cozy.‘

Lucianne tried to push away his body with her paws but Xandar was too strong. Their bodies didn’t even budge. Frustrated, Lucianne groaned and warned, ‘Xandar, if I have to be in the interrogation room without breakfast because you won’t let me go, I’m going to give you a concussion at training tomorrow.’

‘Seriously? Xandar, just let go of me. We’re going to see each other in a few hours from now anyway!
