Werewolf
The 5-Time Rejected Gamma And The Lycan King Chapter 89
Xandar accepted the clothes, and pondered for a moment before he frowned and muttered, “Just because she’s strong it doesn’t mean she deserves to go through these emotional turmoils. Why does life give someone like her so much to deal with?”
Juan smiled sadly and whispered, not wanting Lucianne to hear them, “You have no idea how many of us want to know the answer to that question, your Highness.”
Lucianne came to the door as soon as Juan finished saying that. He offered her a hug. They held each other for only a short moment before bidding each other goodnight.
Xandar changed in the bathroom, and tucked Lucianne into bed after that. He kissed her on her forehead before whispering a firm and clear ‘I love you’ into her ear. When she muttered a soft ‘I know’, he smiled and pecked a kiss on her cheek.
Relief washed over him and his Lycan. He went to the couch and fell asleep as soon as he saw Lucianne’s own eyelids fall in the dark.
In a bar, Livia slammed her phone on the counter table after speaking to her aunt. On the high chair next to her, Sasha’s hopeful eyes turned dark. Livia didn’t have to say anything. Her reaction pretty much told Sasha the gist of what she wanted to know.
Livia drowned down some liquor before she slammed the emptied shot glass on the counter table. She muttered under her breath lividly, “What the hell is that bitch made of?”
Sasha drank half of the contents from her wine glass before saying, “It doesn’t matter. Everyone breaks over something. We just haven’t found what breaks her yet.”
“How can Greg even like her?!” Livia whisper-yelled, still unable to accept that the Duke kicked her out the other night and showed affection for Lucianne by how gentle his tone was when he said Lucianne’s name.
Sasha seemed to have already calmed down from her previous encounter with the Duke. “Men don’t know what they want, Liv. He’s just blinded for now, like the rest of them.”
Livia continued to hiss, “Do you know that even the wolves were ready to attack my relatives? How dare they?! We are the superior species! They shouldn’t even have the gall to think of doing something like that.”
Sasha took a sip, “It’s because of that wolf. They think that they are on par with us now because our King is bonded to one of them.”
“We can’t let her get away with this!” Livia exclaimed. “The wolves who did that should be punished! That bitch should be brought to her knees and apologize for what she’s been doing to all of us!”
“I’m with you there, Liv. But we need a Plan B now.” Sasha didn’t like Kelissa Kylton, especially when she knew that the late King and Queen was trying to matchmake their son with the Lord and Lady’s only daughter. Sasha’s own father was not a Lord, so she felt inferior to Kelissa…that was until word spread that Xandar refused to marry the daughter of that esteemed family. The Kyltons were so humiliated and angry that they moved far away. No one had seen them or heard from them in years, until Livia made the call.
Livia was aware of Sasha’s hate towards her cousin but she couldn’t care less. She was after the Duke. There was something about his willful disregard for authority that turned on a switch in her being. Livia didn’t tell her relatives that Sasha had a hand in deciding to tell Aunt Kylton about the King being bonded to a wolf. Kelissa expressed mutual hate for Sasha when she saw Sasha trying to seduce the very person she herself was seducing.
After a few more drinks, Sasha sent Livia home. Livia walked into the dark house. Her parents were visiting some friends and her brother worked overseas so she was alone for now. She entered, and threw the keys with the other sets before sighing in exhaustion. She was making her way towards her room. But when she walked past the dark living room, her senses caught a presence. With her Lycan eyesight, she looked into the dark and saw a figure sitting crossed-legged on an armchair at a dark corner. She squinted her eyes, and when her vision finally adjusted fully to the darkness, she saw that it was Greg.
She smirked coyly, “Well, your Grace. It’s good to know you’re comfortable letting yourself in. Finally in the mood to experience what I told you about the other night?”
Greg uncrossed his legs and stood from his seat. He took slow steps towards Livia without uttering a single word. Livia assumed that he was accepting her offer. Her parents weren’t coming home anytime soon so they could very well do it in the living room if they wanted to. She, too, approached him in slow, seductive steps as she threw her purse on the couch and waited for him to make his move.
When he stood before her, his onyx eyes bore into hers and Livia misread them as being lust when, in fact, Greg was actually angered. Her arousal started filling the room. That was when Greg pushed her mercilessly against the wall. He pinned her neck with one hand and growled menacingly as he asked, “Why did you send the Kyltons this evening?”
She was shocked but tried to choke out her words, “G-Greg, what are you talking about? I didn—”
