Davina and Shaun has been friends since forever, and they finally can meet with their classmates for school reunion. But this reunion is more of an announcement and even opening old wounds Will Davina and Shaun survive the wreak?

Chapter 1 Too late

CHAPTER ONE

Davina

The knots in her stomach tightened as the cab raced past the Reelers gate, the landmark that signified she was now halfway to her destination. Cracking her fingers, she wondered how on earth she had been convinced to agree to such madness, the madness of spending not just an evening, but an entire weekend, with people who were as good as strangers to her, people she hadn't seen in two decades.

The closer the cab got to the luxury hotel and golf course that had been chosen for the occasion, owned by one of her old classmates no less, the more she regretted opting for a simple t-shirt over blue jeans outfit. Stealing a look at her bare face in the rear-view mirror, she knew one thing she would not be doing on arrival was make a statement. Hopefully, she'd get the chance to change into something else before the evening's mixer, but even she knew none of her other choices would be significantly different from what she already had on.

Cursing under her breath, she felt like kicking herself for not preparing better for the weekend and at least doing some shopping.Reaching for her phone, she dialled Shaun for what had to be the millionth time and cursed again when it rang off. For someone who'd promised to be her support that weekend, he was already doing an awful job of it. Her best friend since high school, and the only person she'd kept in touch with over the years, he'd been the one who'd convinced her to attend the reunion.

"It's going to be a blast!" he'd raved, when they each received the invite months before. "I've heard a lot of people plan to attend, so it's going to be crazy fun."

And like a fool, she'd signed up for it. In retrospect, as Shaun was still very friendly with a good number of their old classmates, a sharp contrast to her own zero tally, what was going to be 'crazy fun' for him was bound to be anything but, for her. The only silver lining she could see was spending time with him. Even though they were still as tight as thieves, it didn't change the fact that they lived continents apart and didn't see each other as often as they liked. While she had remained in the States, Shaun moved to the United Kingdom immediately after school. But distance hadn't weakened their friendship, and they were just as close as the first time they'd clapped eyes on each other as young fourteen-year-olds.

Putting the phone back in her bag, she inhaled deeply. She was just going to have to face the music without him.

COALESCENCE OF THE FIVE SERIES BOOK ONE: THE 5-TIME REJECTED GAMMA & THE LYCAN KING BOOK TWO: THE ROGUES WHO WENT ROGUE BOOK THREE: THE INDOMITABLE HUNTRESS & THE HARDENED DUKE *** BOOK ONE: After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. Whatā€™s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner. King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldnā€™t thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesnā€™t seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that heā€™s different; and a chance to love her. But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
