The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 60

Chapter 60

The floor-to-ceiling walls in the dining area exuded simplicity and class. The waiter led them to a table by the window and Lucianne remained standing to take in the view of the city. Xandar’s hand then came from behind her, resting on her abdomen as he whispered into her ear, “Lucy, how about we order first, then take in the view?”

“Okay.” Lucianne whispered back but she didn’t move until Xandar gently tugged her hand towards her chair.

After they had ordered, Lucianne continued taking in the scenery. Xandar was taking in another scenery – his mate across the table. She looked absolutely picturesque as her starry eyes absorbed the sight before her eyes.

When she was done, she told Xandar, “I never imagined coming here this year or even in this lifetime.”(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) She reached for his hand across the table, and placed hers over it as she uttered a grateful ‘thank you’.

He lifted her hand up to kiss it and said, “Anything for you, Lucy.” Her flustered look was gorgeous. With a shy but affectionate smile, she began their conversation, “So, you’ve already told me about your parents and Granpa Brock. I’d like to know more about Aunt Reida. She sounds like a person I would’ve liked as a friend, being opinionated and all.”

Xandar snorted, “If she were alive, you’d probably be spending more time with her than you d o with me.” Lucianne smiled wider in response. Xandar then continued, “Aunt Reida was the complete opposite of my mother. She was different from most women. She makes herself heard. And unlike my mother, Aunt Reida married her bonded mate.”

“Wait, what?” Lucianne questioned in surprise, “King Lucas and Queen Vera were not bonded by the Moon Goddess?”

“I thought you knew that.” Xandar’s eyebrows furrowed as he said in confusion. Lucianne shook her head. So Xandar went on, “My father was all about power and influence so naturally he picked one of the Blackfur daughters to wed. And knowing how different the two sisters were, it wasn’t a difficult choice to make on who he wanted. Not that Aunt Reida would have accepted him anyway. She and Granpa Blackfur never liked him.”

Lucianne processed what she’d just heard. “Why
