Chapter 144

After saying their goodbyes, Xandar and Lucianne got into the car, and Lucianne kicked away her heels

as she let out a relieved sigh. Xandar waited for her to take another breath before smashing his lips on

hers and squeezing her thigh. Only when he released her did he whisper, “We have the rest of the day

off, sweetheart. What do you want to do?”

Lucianne’s cheeky switch was flipped on when she said, “Isn’t it a little unprofessional to offer such an

invitation to someone who’s not crowned Queen, your Highness?”

Xandar emitted the dangerous and alluring growl as he pressed his forehead on hers and warned, “Don’t

challenge me on this, my love. The moment I give out the order, you can bet you’ll be crowned

tomorrow.”

“Without the consent and agreement from the one who is to be crowned? A little uncivilized, don’t you

think?”

A light peck on her lips and he uttered, “Perhaps. But it’ll definitely shut those idiots up.”

Lucianne’s cheeky eyes turned soft with tenderness before she pecked a kiss on his cheek. “Thank you

for what you did for me back there.”

Xandar’s eyes softened as well when he kissed her nose, “Well, I had help. And you really don’t have to

thank any of us for defending what you can and cannot do, sweetheart. It’s your right. We were just

fighting for what was already there.”

Her voice turned into a shy whisper now as she said, “I love you.”

Xandar smiled and responded with ease, “I love you, too, my little freesia. And since you love me, you

have to say yes to my unprofessional invitation to bring you somewhere.”

Lucianne rolled her eyes and pushed him back to his seat as she said, “You very well know I was going

to say yes when you first asked, Xandar.”

“Well, then. Pick a place, babe. Was there anywhere you wanted to visit but never got the chance to?”

“Hm.” Lucianne pondered for a moment before her eyes met her mate’s when she said, “I want to go to

your favorite place.”

Xandar’s eyebrows raised in surprise before his smile broadened when he said, “My favorite place is with

you, Lucy.”

Lucianne narrowed her eyes and said, “Fine. Then, your second favorite place.”

“Where are you going with this, sweetheart?”

“I want to go where you love. I want to see what you love, and feel why you love it. You’ve already

brought me to the freesia field. Is there anywhere else you’d go to just be…happy?”

Xandar was moved. His mate really wanted to know him, even the little things about him. He

contemplated with a smile before he said, “Well, I’ve always been into history. So, maybe we could go to

one of my favorite museums… In fact, it just occurred to me that there’s a piece there that you should

see.”

Lucianne sparkled in awe before she asked excitedly, “You’re a history geek? Why didn’t you tell me?!”

Xandar looked a little embarrassed when he said, “Babe, let’s just…not use that term.”

“Why not? I’m a geek myself if you haven’t noticed.” Lucianne declared.

“Yeah, but sweetheart, let’s face it. You do not look like a geek. At all. You’re much too attractive.”

“Geeks can be attractive too, Xandar. Just look at yourself.” Lucianne noted.

*I don’t know, babe. I guess I’m still trying to get the stereotypical version of a geek out of my

subconscious. A geek doesn’t sound very… deserving or capable of being with you.” 2

Lucianne retorted in confidence, “Xandar, geeks are more than capable of accomplishing anything. And

they’re cute!”

Xandar started getting suspicious so his hand pressed her abdomen against the seat, his predator eyes

fixed on her as he asked in a low voice, “And which geeks in your past have you found cute and capable,

m y little freesia?” 1

Lucianne realized she let that slip so she muttered ‘oh, boy’under her breath before she said, “It was just

a few study buddies, Xandar. There was never…”

He planted a deep kiss on her lips before he asked in his deep voice, “Did you ever find me cute?”

added, “You’ve always looked more handsome and confident than anything else. Cute doesn’t suit you,

darling. You’re the scary Lycan King, despite your efforts of trying to be a softy from time to time. But

knowing about your geeky side now, I’d bet you are going to look cute really soon, my love.”

His animal’s anger evaporated, and it was dancing around in his head with its head held high. Xandar

nodded with a smile and said, “Hm. Good answer. For a minute there, my animal was going to go

berserk.”

“Let’s not blame the fiercest animal for everything, dearest. Your human part may have encouraged it as

well.”

Xandar couldn’t believe his own animal was laughing at his human part. When was the last time that

happened? He pecked a kiss on her temple before he muttered in bliss, “Absolutely amazing.”

After driving for twenty minutes, they came to a large castle with shrubs trimmed to mould the strongest

Lycans of the past. Xandar explained, “This was where my parents and I lived. After they passed away,

Christian and I decided to turn it into the Kingdom’s largest museum. Kids love coming here not for the

history but for the fact that it’s a castle.” 2

Lucianne chuckled as she touched his arm affectionately and said, “I think it’s a brilliant idea. It does give

the public access to where the Kings and Queens of the past once lived.”

Xandar took her hand and pecked a kiss on the back before he said, “I’m glad you think so.”

“And be honest, darling. You chose to live in your villa now because it’s closer to Christian’s place and

the freesia field, didn’t you?”

Xandar was pressing back his smile when he said, “Those were…highly influential factors when I made

the decision to move there.”

When the valet took care of the parking, Xandar led Lucianne through the large brown wooden doors

with paw engravings. Lucianne was amazed by the interior. The castle looked really old from the outside

but the inside was sophisticated,

The tiled floors were pale against the light brown walls. The light colored-tinted glass ceiling was high,

and the light from the sun penetrated through it to light up the space. With a hand on her abdomen,

Xandar pecked a kiss on Lucianne’s temple from the side and whispered in a husky voice, “What are you

thinking about, my love?”

Her head turned to meet her mate’s lilac eyes filled with affection when she replied, “I honestly didn’t

know an old castle could look this beautiful.”

Xandar pecked another kiss on her temple and said, “Anywhere can be beautiful as long as you’re there,

Lucy.”

Lucianne smirked despite her blushing cheeks, and she said, “Well, where should we start, geek?

Xandar narrowed his eyes and protested, “Really, babe? Geek?”

Lucianne pursed her lips for a moment while she thought and finally said, “Where should we start, my

handsome geek?”

The Lycan King was starting to blush as well when he admitted, “That actually sounds a lot better.” He

kissed the back of her hand before he suggested, “I’m going to do away with all the bullsh*t we had to

learn in school and skip to the parts they left out of the syllabus, which would be down this hallway.”

“The Lycan King saying that school history on Lycans is bullsh*t. This is a good start.” Lucianne taunted

with a suppressed smile.

“Well, Yarrington already suggested doing away with whatever the schools have now, so I’d say my

views are aligned with the 21st century, my dear. The history we learned was all very one-sided, and

clearly written to brainwash rather than to enlighten future generations about the past.”
