Chapter 9

The next morning, he wore a grey shirt and a black tuxedo. At breakfast, he beamed at his subjects when he saw that Lucianne’s head remained up when the rest of them were bowing. After greeting the attendees, he made his way to her, and kissed her on her forehead as he said, “Thank you, for not bowing.”

“It felt very awkward.” She complained with blushing cheeks.

He chuckled. “You’ll get used to it.” He took in her stunning figure hugged by a dark purple ruffled top and black skirt before he said, “You look beautiful.”

She smirked and said, “You look great too, Xandar. Are you going to say that every morning?”

“Mmm. Maybe.” He was looking at her flirtatiously, and started closing the distance between them.

With her hand on his hard chest, Lucianne kept their remaining distance as she said, “Behave

now, your Highness. There are people you should meet.” “Fine.” He groaned.

With his hand on her waist, Lucianne introduced him to the pack members of Lunar Eclipse, Night Howl and Glimmer Moon. It took a lot of encouragement and prompting on Lucianne’s part before the members felt like they could speak up about their concerns without sugar-

coating anything.

When it came to damaged borders, Xandar promised to contribute financially without hesitation. However, things like hospital supplies, rusting pipes and a seasonal shortage of

clean water were trickier.

He had to call for a meeting with his ministers to address these issues. He made mental notes on what they needed, and promised to get back to them on the aid that his government can

provide.

Alpha Juan and Luna Hale walked up to them with wide smiles as Juan called out, “Lucy!

Your Highness! Busy morning, I see.”

Some Lycans were glaring at him for speaking so casually to the King but Juan and Hale couldn’t care less. Xandar shook Juan’s hand with a smile and said, “Yeah, well. I guess that’s

what happens when I get an over-responsible mate.”

“Don’t I know it.” Juan rolled his eyes in Hale’s direction, earning a slap on his arm from his

Luna before she lovingly slipped her arm into his.

Lucianne narrowed her eyes at her mate and said, “Xandar, you asked for this.”

Hale then chirped in, “Lucy, forgive them. Men don’t always know what they want.”

 

“That’s true.” Xandar agreed without hesitation, and locked eyes with Lucianne before he proceeded to say, “But there are certain things that I can never be more sure of.” He kissed her on her cheek, and watched as she blushed. She pressed her lips together to force back tier smile, internally frustrated that she could never control the warmth that would creep up her cheeks whenever Xandar kissed her.

They got breakfast and sat together as they ate. Lucianne invited the members of White Blood over, who gave suggestions on how they think the government could facilitate their efforts in providing training to untrained packs.

Xandar tried his best to control the jealousy he felt whenever he caught Lucianne and Gamma Tobias throwing each other knowing glances and cheeky smirks as Alpha Tate

spoke. Even the Alpha was stealingglances at her whenever Lucianne wasn’t looking. ‘

Xandar held onto Lucianne’s hand, and pecked kisses on it from time to time to remind her that his feelings for her are real, and to make an implied statement to the Gamma and the

Alpha that Lucianne was HIS mate.

About half an hour before training was bound to start, everyone left the dining hall to change into their training attire. They then gathered at the royal training ground.
