Chapter 22

After a long while of enjoying each other’s company in silence, Lucianne said, “I wonder if the others

have had enough rest. We haven’t eaten so we should probably attend dinner.”

Xandar then said, “Lucianne, we can always call room service. You should rest. After what you’ve been

through today, I will personally break the necks of anyone who think of questioning your absence.”

“I’m fine, Xandar, really. I can go. But I need to change first.” She then looked at him and said,” So do

you if you’re going.”

He smirked and kissed her cheek. “As if I would leave you there with all my competitors trying to win your

heart.”

She narrowed her eyes and declared bluntly, “I am not interested in Sebastian Cummings.”

He hugged her tightly. “Oh, I know. He’s not the one I’m worried about, sweetheart. There are s o many

others who want you the way I do. I feel like the Moon Goddess is taunting me by giving me a mate who

comes with a whole army of admirers to fight through. Not that I should complain. At least she bothered

to give me a mate who’s smart, noble, selfless…”

“You’re overreacting, Xandar. There isn’t anyone else who looks at me or wants me that way. There

never has been. And if there were, it would only be because they’re interested in whoever the King is

interested in. It’s not because they’re interested in me per se.”

Xandar sighed. “That’s where you’re wrong again, Lucianne. Just by looking at the way they look at you

and hear them talk about you or to you…I just know they had intentions to be intimate with you even

before we met. And those intentions are still very much alive. Not just the mateless Gammas but also the

Alphas, I might add.”(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)

Lucianne stared at her knees and pondered hard on what she had just heard before throwing her hands

in the air to signify that she had given up. “No. I’m not getting anything. My mind i s going blank. The only

one I’m aware of showing me a shameless amount of affection when h e looks at me is you. So, I have

no idea who you’re talking about.”

Xandar scoffed. “I’m quite relieved that you didn’t include Cummings in that list.”

Lucianne rolled her eyes. “He shows me a shameless amount of guilt and remorse. None of those

feelings are even close to affection. And, my King, do spend your time on something other than thinking

that someone else may want me. You’re really wasting your energy in that department. It’s completely

non-existent.”

Xandar then chuckled and said, “It’s funny how little you see when it comes to how people are attracted

to you. I’m not sure whether to feel frustrated or happy.”

She kissed him on his chin and said, “Choose positive feelings, my dear.”

He kissed her nose in return as he uttered, “As you wish, my Queen.” She flinched slightly at being

called his Queen but she chose not to argue about it this time. Only this time. She had put him through

enough for the day with her sleeping for hours and almost severing their

bond.

With Lucianne’s constant pestering, Xandar finally gave in to leave so that he could return home for a

change of clothes before dinner. When he was three steps from her door, he turned around, held her

hands, and said in glee, “I have a question.”

Lucianne smirked and commented, “Why do your questions today come right before you’re supposed to

do something? Let’s hear it.”

His eyes shone with hope as he asked in anticipation, “Can I start calling you ‘Lucy’?”

She looked at him in total confusion. “That was your question? You’re asking me whether you can call

me by my name? Haven’t you been doing that already, Xandar?”

He pouted. “No, I’ve been calling you ‘Lucianne’ like a stranger. I didn’t have the permission to call you

like how so many of the others have been calling you. I’ve had you called me by my shortened name

since we met. It’s not fair.”

Lucianne narrowed her eyes. “Your logic perplexes me, your Highness. You needed my permission to

call me by my name but you started calling me your baby, your love, your sweetheart, without ever

having the need to ask for permission for those.”(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)

He smiled cheekily. “I didn’t want you to refuse.”

She shook her head as she smiled. “Like I said, Xandar. Your logic perplexes me.”

When she tried to break free to chase him out, he held on to her and asked with a grin, “So is that a

‘yes’?”

She smirked in response to his insistence, “Yes. Now, go. You’ve already disappeared from your subjects

for the entire day. Don’t be late for dinner as well.”

“Goddess, this is one responsible Queen.” He muttered, and kissed her fingers before he was pushed

out of her door. “I can’t wait to see you later, Lucy.”(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)

For once, his animal didn’t whimper as he left Lucianne’s room. He couldn’t wait to see her again in less

than an hour. Xandar drove home with a smile on his face which didn’t falter even when he entered the

house or when was showering.

As he was getting dressed, an idea came to him so he called Juan. Juan, who had only woken up fifteen

minutes before his call, was requested by the King to be ready at the dining hall with the other members

of the alliance.

The Alpha wasn’t told the details but he gladly obliged. Xandar then linked Christian to tell him about the

plan he had in mind, and his cousin was all for it. After checking himself in the mirror, Xandar drove to

the dining hall.

As soon as he stepped in, everyone bowed but the person he was looking for wasn’t there. Where was

she? After motioning his subjects to stand, Xandar continued to scan the room.(This will be daily

Then, someone came up from his peripheral vision and bowed to him. In his menacing tone, Xandar

asked, “What are you doing here?”
