The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 63

The waiter showed Xandar and Lucianne to the table that Xandar had specifically reserved earlier. It was a secluded corner booth. After placing their order, the waitress drew the see through curtains and left them alone.

Lucianne reached for Xandar’s hands across the table as she asked in concern, “Are you okay?”

He smiled and kissed her hand, more normally this time, and said, “I am now.”

Lucianne returned his smile and said, “So uh…your question on kids. I’ve always thought about having my own before the string of rejections. After the latest mate bond snap, I actually made peace with the fact that I may never have children of my own. The plan was to adopt a child when I was ready, like when there were fewer rogue attacks so that I’ll have more time on my hands. But last year was clearly not the best time to take on that type of responsibility so I haven’t committed myself to motherhood just yet.”

Xandar then uttered sadly, “Aren’t you at least reconsidering having your own kids now?” That question was more than what it seemed. He was asking whether Lucianne had considered having kids with him.

Lucianne immediately explained, “I was getting there, Xandar. Adoption was the plan until I saw that you’re… different. I admit that I haven’t given thought to the details on the subject just yet. But I can’t deny that…it’s a possibility now.”
