The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 10

Chapter 10

After showering and cleaning up, everyone made their way to the dining hall for lunch. Lucianne wore the same purple top and black skirt she wore in the morning. For once, she entered the dining hall after Xandar. When she saw him speaking to someone she didn’t know, she decided against interrupting and went up to Christian, who was speaking to Juan and Hale.

‘Ah! My Queen.” Christian beamed and bowed. ‘Please, don’t do that.” Lucianne said as she covered her eyes, embarrassed. ‘It’s just etiquette, my Queen. You don’t have to be so shy about it.” Christian chuckled.

Juan then uttered to himself, “Queen Lucianne Freesia Paw does sound nice. Very regal.”

‘Juan, stop it!” Lucianne whisper-yelled as more people were looking their way.

Christian’s forefinger and thumb were at his chin, like he was thinking. He then turned to Juan and said, “We’ll have to keep calling her that until she gets used to it, I’m afraid.”

Not wanting to hang around and garner more stares from the people already eavesdropping o n their conversation, Lucianne then said, “I think I should just go over there to speak to the other Gammas.”

‘Too late.” Christian said and chuckled again.

Lucianne looked confused when she asked, “What do you m—” she gasped when a warm hand pressed her abdomen before it slid to the side of her waist. Sparks erupted in those areas as Juan, Hale and Christian bowed and greeted in unison, “My King.”

He smiled at them, and gave them the cue to lift their heads. Xandar’s eyes locked with Lucianne’s as he asked in his husky voice, “How did it go with Juan?”

Lucianne shot Juan a cheeky grin and said, “It went well.”

Hale then added enthusiastically, “So well that he came back with bruises that were still healing.”

Juan slid an arm around his mate’s waist and uttered in embarrassment, “Baby, you’re supposed to be on my side. And the bruises were supposed to be a secret.”

Hale then turned to Juan and smirked. “I’m sorry, my dear. I thought I was promised the

fiercest fighter in the pack but since Lucy beat you today, I’m choosing her now.” The Lycan cousins and Lucianne laughed at Hale’s response and Juan’s fake pouting.

As Lucianne looked back at Xandar, she asked, “So, did you kick your cousin’s ass or did he kick yours?”

Christian was already chuckling. Xandar then said, “A 2-1. I almost lost because you didn’t

“But you wished him luck.” He complained like a toddler as he gestured at Christian.

“And did it save him?” She asked rhetorically.

Knowing that he had lost the argument, Xandar resorted to squeezing the flesh at her waist playfully before kissing her briefly on her temple. They then moved to the buffet table and got

their food before sitting down.

“So uh…cuz.” Christian sat next to Xandar. His expression grew worried as he asked, “What brings Greg here? I didn’t think he was interested in these things.” Their eyes went to where Christian motioned with his gaze. Lucianne recognized that that was the very person Xandar was speaking to when she walked in. Greg was now mingling with the female Lycans, who

Lucianne looked up at Xandar, who was worried as well. Lucianne then asked, “Do you two need a moment?” She didn’t want them to feel like they couldn’t speak freely.
