The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 19

Chapter 19

Three hours later, Lucianne’s sleepiness started subsiding, and her senses slowly brought her back to reality. She could gather that she was lying flat on a bed and the quilt covered her body to chest-level. When she slowly opened her eyes, she realized that her right hand was laced with something rough and warm. She gasped and her body shot up in panic.

“Hey, hey. What’s wrong?” Xandar asked softly when he heard his mate’s gasp and felt the tugging of her small, smooth hand in his larger, rougher one.

Lucianne let out a sigh of relief when she saw him. “It’s just you. I’m okay. Sorry about that.”

He shook his head as he uttered, “Don’t be.” He then cautiously sat on the bed right next to her and caressed her arms to soothe his mate as he said, “It’s so good to hear your voice.” He then pecked a kiss on her cheek.

Lucianne looked at herself under the quilt, and instantly noticed that her clothes were not the ones she wore after the battle in the Jewel Pack. She couldn’t bring herself to meet Xandar’s gaze, thinking that he may have been the one who changed her clothes.

Xandar seemed to have read her mind when he explained, “Lunas Hale and Felicity helped clean you up and change.”(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)

Lucianne’s relief washed away the anxiety that was there before. She smiled and nodded to signify that she heard him. She then started recollecting the events before she slept. All of a sudden, she looked left and right while asking almost inaudibly, “What time is it? How long was I out? And where’s my phone?” She lifted the covers and looked for it, and wanted to get out of bed to continue her hunt.

Xandar held both her hands to stop her from leaving the bed as he said in a soft, gentle voice,” Hey, slow down. You’ve just woken up. Let me get it for you.” He positioned her back into the bed before walking to the dressing table to get her phone.

As he was striding towards her, he said, “It’s almost one in the afternoon. You slept for about six hours. Here.” He handed her her phone, sat back on the bed and kissed her forehead as he asked, “How are you feeling?”

“Better. Thanks for asking, and for staying with me.” Her voice was stronger, much to Xandar’s relief.

He smiled and kissed her cheek again. “Baby, I’m your mate. You don’t have to thank me for showing concern.” When a blush started appearing on her still-pale face, she tried to get out o fbed for the second time. 2
