The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 45

They sat at a huge dining table that the servants had to take out from the basement when the three families moved in. Ellia and Ben were happy to see Lucianne again. And Ellia introduced Lucianne to her assistants and their families. Brigetta Reese and her mate, Barton Reese were newlyweds, and had a six-month-old child named Beatrice. Oscar Wildrow was mateless for now, and lived with his sister, Olivia Wildrow

They all sat at the same table and ate the same food as the Duke and Duchess. Russell insisted that he sat with Lucianne. After knowing about Xandar’s jealousy, Lucianne made sure she stroked Xandar’s arm affectionately after she had given Russell any form of attention. Xandar’s animal beamed in pride whenever Lucianne touched him in front of so many people.

When Lucianne asked the families whether they had received any threats, everyone was relieved that they all uttered a resounding ‘no’ Then again, the three colleagues did leave their phones in their homes after deleting almost all the information inside so that they couldn’t be tracked. So technically, there wasn’t a way to threaten them.

Oscar then asked between mouthfuls, “Apologies, my Queen. But may I ask what happened?” He gestured to her 5-inch scar on her arm.

Lucianne glanced at her scar and said simply, “Oh, it was from a rogue attack on one of our ally packs five or six years ago. Many warriors have something like this.”

“You’re a warrior?” Oscar asked in astonishment.

“I am.” Lucianne answered humbly with a polite smile. Christian then added, “Oscar, if you want to know about our Queen, you can’t ask her personally. Her humility doesn’t permit her to give you the full information. She’s the Gamma of Blue Crescent, one of the strongest packs in existence. And she is the fiercest of her kind, like a Gamma of the Gammas. In combat this morning, she beat the best Lycan warrior and our General in the same match all on her own. Less than ten minutes later, she beat our King here within eight minutes.”.

There were shocked gasps from all the adults in the room as their sights turned to fix on the Lucianne. Lucianne was already covering her face with her hands, embarrassed. Xandar did not help when he gently peeled her hands off her flustered face. He was proud to show off his beautiful mate who had just kicked his ast in the morning.
