My Not Yet Mate novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98 

Lukas 

He paced angrily in front of his castle, waiting for Casey to bring Lucy back home. Over the last three months every time he sent her to pick up Lucy, she took longer. He knew she was spending time with that boy. 

“Her mate, Kenny, Gideon yawned inside his head. 

“I don’t care. She sees Lily twice a week and spends nights with her mate. The least she can do is bring my daughter home,” Lukas snapped. 

Relax. Lily is just busy. We will see her when she has time! 

‘Fuck. I miss her, Gideon 

“I know, I do, too. She gave herself to us. We’re her only ones? 

“What if she changes her mind? 

Gideon laughed. ‘Just call her then.” 

A portal opened in front of them and Casey danced through with Kenny behind her. Lukas narrowed his eyes as he watched them walk past him. He bared his teeth at them as he turned. 

“CASEY! WHERE THE HELL IS LUCY?! YOU HAD ONE JOB AND YOU- 

Hands touched his back and sparks raced along his skin. He spun back around and his face broke in 

into a huge smile. 

“Lily, baby, hi.” 

She laughed and tilted her head down to where Lucy clung to her hand. “Hey, King Lukas, oh mighty bringer of death,” she teased. 

He opened his arms and she instantly moved into them. He hugged her, before moving back a little to pick Lucy up. He smiled at Lily. “What are you doing here?,” he asked her. 

She pouted and crossed her arms over her chest. “And here I thought you would be happy to see me.” 

“I just wasn’t expecting to see you until you graduated. It’s the middle of the first semester,” 

She laughed and winked at Lucy. “Isn’t Daddy silly, baby?” 

Lucy giggled and Lukas” chest puffed out with happiness. “How long are you staying?” 

“Well, Principal Dora told Sasha that the school had to have an emergency teacher only meeting, so we were dismissed for the week. I finished all my work over the weekend, so that leaves me free for a week.” She grinned and pointed to the portal that was still open. “I mean, I can go home if you 

want me to.” 

He grabbed her wrist and pulled her close to give her a kiss. “You are already home. How have you been, Lils? 

“Honestly?” 

He rolled his eyes as he led her up the stairs to go inside. “No, I want you to lie to me.” 

“I’ve missed you, like a lot. I can’t tell you how many times I have wanted to come to see you.” 

squeezed her hand. “You can come home whenever you want.” 

“I know, Did Sasha tell you I placed first in the essay competition again?” 

“No, she didn’t. Who did you write about this time?” 

*Well, the prompt was: People who have risen to power.”

“Who did you 

u write it 

it on?” 

Lily leaned her head on his shoulder as they entered the dining hall. “My true father of course. There wasn’t anybody better.” 

He eyed her. “Laly…. I d 

I don’t want you to think about- 

“Preston? He’s a great king. Did you know that he opened his borders to rogues who wanted to be part of a family again? Doing that has opened up so many business opportunities for them.” She got Lucy into her high chair, before wrapping her arms around his neck and lightly swinging. “He has been so good for Lotus. You did really well making him king.” 

He pecked her lips. “Remind me to reward him.” 

or else.” 

She smirked. “He said to tell you, you better treat me right or el 

He laughed and picked her up. “Tll treat you right alright, he murmured. 

She ran her fingers through his hair. “So, I was thinking that this week you could show me around Deegan and teach me about being queen. I mean, if you wanted to,” she said shyly. 

He kissed her softly. “Anything you want. We can start now if you want.” 

How? What 

it can we do now? It’s dinner time and then we should get Lucy down.” She licked her lips. “And then I thought we could spend some time together. Just me and you.” 

His eyes lit up and he nodded. “I like your idea better. Let’s eat and go to bed.” 

Lily made Lucy a plate of cubed chicken, mashed potatoes and peas. She put the plate on her tray and took her seat next to Lukas. They talked about her school and the new things happening in the kingdoms as they ate. He gave her a run down on the kings that she had given a month to get their records in order and she was happy to hear that they had complied. She leaned back in her chair. 

“Whoo! That was close. I so did not want to have to eat them. That’s Sasha’s thing.” 

He laughed. “Don’t ask Irina. She’ll say we taste like chicken, but we don’L” 

Her eyes widened. “But everything tastes like chicken.” 

He leaned close to her. “I’ll let you know if you do later.” 

She groaned and hopped up. She quickly pulled Lucy out of her high chair and started heading out of the hall. 

“Where are you going?,” he called after her. 

She glanced over her shoulder. “She yawned.” 

He watched her leave, confused about her statement. Lucy hadn’t yawned.
