Chapter 93

Lucianne felt Xandar’s panicked grip so she turned her attention away from Russell, who just came with Annie and Christian. Lucianne then stroked Xandar’s cheeks as she cooed, “Xandar, everything is fine, Breathe. Everything is alright.”

When his breathing steadied and Lucianne let go of his face, Christian came over to pat Xandar on the shoulder and asked in concern, “You alright, cuz?”

“Y-Yeah. Just need to splash some water on my face.” He got up from his chair to peck a kiss on Lucianne’s cheek as he whispered, “I won’t take long. I’ll be right back.”

To Lucianne’s surprise, her mate ruffled Russell’s hair with a warm smile before he headed to the bathroom sink to wash away the sleepiness. Xandar listened to their conversation while he was at the sink.

Lucianne was speaking to his four-year-old competitor now seated on her lap, “So, Russell. What were you building yesterday?”

After some rummaging sounds, he heard his mate gasping in astonishment and asked, “Is this a train?” He saw the little boy nodding through the mirror before Lucianne exclaimed, “You’re so clever, Russell!”

The little boy’s smile was radiant for only a moment before he patted Lucianne’s left leg with his small hand and asked, “Are you okay, Aunt Lucy?”

She smiled and kissed him on his forehead before responding, “I’m okay now. Thank you for asking, Russell. You’re so sweet.”

“I care about Aunt Lucy.” He said before leaning into her chest and making her heart melt.
