The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 78

Evie grinned broadly to show her half-grown teeth, and she hopped a little in excitement before nodding her head and throwing her arms around Lucianne’s neck. Lucianne’s heart melted just like when Russell hugged her.

Evie let her mother pull her out from the embrace but the little girl stubbornly took back her hand with force before telling Lucianne out loud, “When I grow up, I want to be brave and pwetty. Just like you, pwetty Lucy!” 1

The restaurant went silent, and Xandar was the proudest and happiest person in the room. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)Lucianne looked a bit embarrassed but she pecked a kiss on Evie’s cheek as she said in all certainty, “Evie, when you grow up, you’ll be brave and pretty. Just like you.” Lucianne’s index finger tapped lightly on Evie’s nose, and the little girl giggled in excitement. Her mother made another apology and pulled away her excited daughter before little Evie prolonged the conversation.

Mummers of affection soon filled the room at how Lucianne interacted with little Evie. Everyone was throwing warm smiles in hers and Xandar’s way. But Lucianne was blind to all of this because her attention was on Evie the whole time.

When Evie was dragged away by her mother, Xandar stood up and held out a hand to his mate as he said, “Come, my love.”

Lucianne took it without hesitation, letting Xandar support her as she stood back up next to him. Her eyes followed Evie and her mother until they reached their table. Xandar and Lucianne exchanged smiles with Evie’s family before taking a seat at the table that the waiter led them to. Xandar pecked a kiss on her cheek before letting her sit as he whispered, “You’re amazing.”

She blushed as she sat and said, “So are you, Xandar.” Lucianne then smirked as she commented, “I can see you prefer little girls to little boys.” 1

“Of course. Little girls are no competition.” Xandar said.

Lucianne shook her head with a smile, still finding Xandar’s jealousy for Russell unbelievable. After placing their order and the waiter disappeared, Xandar took her hand before teasing, “Brave and pretty.”

That got Lucianne thinking, “Brave how though? I mean, she’s not Russell or Rita(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com). She doesn’t know me, so why did it feel like she knew that I’m a warrior? How did her family know?”
