All Chapters of Lycan King's Rebel Bride : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Lucia POVI turned around quickly, it must have been her, the queen. And indeed it was her, she was covered in a golden robe decorated with beautiful beads and a lace. Her eyes caught my attention, they glimmered under the multi-colored light, light blue.I hear Rhein chuckle beside me, he went ahead, going to hug her and dropping a polite kiss on her cheek. “Pardon me my queen, the kingdom has needed me”A sly smile fell on her face, her eyes darting to me and back to him, “Well, if it pleases you to introduce me to whom the kingdom has needed”Rhein nodded, turning around to face me. They both walked to me and I felt my palms turn sweaty with nervousness and fear.“This is my soon to be wife and the queen to be, Lucia. Lucia this is my step mother, one of the queens of this kingdom, Alexia” he grinned at me.She walked closer to me, pulling me for a hug and her sweet scent flooded my nostrils, she smelled like scented sweets. “Good afternoon my queen” I greeted her, not knowing what

LuciaI stared open mouthed at both of them in surprise, they had to help me bathe as well? What was I? A child. I began to shake my head, there was no way in hell I was letting that happen.“I can take a bath myself, you both don’t need to help me with that as well, that would be strange” I said as I moved towards the bathroom, avoiding eye contact.They still followed, I turned around again and Jenny smiled politely, “It’s our duty my queen, it would be against the rules not to do that” she explained.I groaned to myself, continuing to walk. I didn’t want any of this but it looked like I had no choice, how bad did it get for maids to help me bathe?“You’re being treated like royalty, you better enjoy it, we don’t even know how long it’ll last” Lara said to me, once again reminding me that Rhein wasn’t a man to trust.It was confusing sometimes, “Do you think he’ll change or not? You keep telling me to give him a chance but remind me of who he is” I said back to her as Huda and Jenny

LuciaHe must have noticed how uncomfortable I was because he sat up straight, moving away from me a little bit.He cleaned his hands using the towel the maids gave him and then stood up. He had a glass of champagne in his hands.My heart almost stopped when he stood, I wondered what he was going to say now, freezing so I could hear him talk. As soon as everyone noticed he had stood up, the table fell silent.All eyes turned to him and we all waited. He gave a polite smile first, making sure his glass was filled, telling the maids to fill everyone’s glasses before speaking.“Ladies and gentlemen, my respected family” he gestured around the table, “I know it’s quite a surprise who you all may or may not have met and I apologize for that”Nobody spoke, I was sure if a pin fell I would hear it. “Well, this is because when I left home a few days ago I wasn’t expecting to get her but here she is and she’s here to stay” he gestured to my direction, the eyes on the table following him. I fel

LuciaThe lift stopped and we got down, surprisingly he still followed me to my door, stopping me at it. “So this is goodnight then, I hope you had a good enough day today” he offered me a smile.I wasn’t sure if to talk about it, I was nervous but I had to ask. “Is there any problem? Did someone do anything?” I felt my heart beat faster as I asked.He stopped, staring at me for a while before continuing, “Nothing happened Lucia. Don’t worry yourself about it.” He smiled. Then continued, “Tomorrow is also going to be a tough day. There’s the meeting with the elders and introduction at the company”I could already see the incoming tiredness and fatigue washed over me, I needed to sleep in preparation. “I have to do all of that tomorrow?”He shook his head, “If you can but you have to do some of it including the preparations for the engagement, you have to make your inputs”My eyes widened at that, I hadn’t expected that he would care if I was part of it or not. I thought he would just

LuciaThe drive began and Rhein turned to me, putting a laptop on his lap and I guess before he started work he wanted to brief me.He moved closer, not quite touching but close enough that I was inhaling his scent. “So I know you’re probably nervous, no?” He asked.He was right but I wouldn’t be giving him the satisfaction of that, I simply stared, waiting for him to continue.He smiled, “It’s not going to be as stressful as yesterday was. You don’t need to be scared at all of any of these people. I’ll deal with them easier if them misbehave with you” he stopped, staring to make sure I understood.I shrugged, that didn’t change I was nervous or help me feel better really, “Who are we going to see at the company today?” I asked him cause I still had no idea.He thought about it for a while, “A few of my executives you’ll be working alongside with. They’ve got to meet you and then understand each other, that’s it mostly” he answered.I felt my breath shorten, my brain had stopped proce
