Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved

Jennifer’s POV:
Right before I fell asleep, my phone rang.
It was Helen.
She told me that Skylar had left Black Stone Pack.
I sat bolt upright when I heard the news, anxious because now, it would be even more difficult for us to find Skylar.
The world was huge.Where on earth could she have gone?
“I have to tell Jerome,” I said to Anthony urgently.
Jerome was so busy with work lately, trying his best to solve the matters of the pack as soon as possible so that he could search
for Skylar himself.
I figured he would move even faster once I told him the news.
“I’ll go with you.”
Anthony also got out of bed.
The two of us hurriedly got dressed and rushed to Jerome’s room.
Nodding slightly to Anthony, I raised my hand and knocked on the door.
Soon after, Jerome opened the door.
There were dark circles around his eyes.
“What’s up?” he asked tiredly.
“Jerome, I’m just here to tell you that Skylar has left the Black Stone Pack.”
“What?”
All the color drained from Jerome’s already pale face.

“Where could she have gone? Do you think she’s in danger? I can’t wait any longer.I’m going to look for her right now.Jennifer, I
don’t have the time to properly hand over the affairs of the pack to you.Please summon the elders and have a meeting tomorrow
to explain the situation.”
As he spoke, Jerome had already headed back into his room to pack his things.
“Since you’ve made up your mind, we will support you.Call me if you need anything, okay?” I sighed.
Because time was of the essence, Jerome only took a few attendants with him.
Anthony and I escorted him to the airport.
“I’m going straight to the Black Stone Pack to personally investigate the matter.If Skylar was there, she must’ve left some
clues.I’m sure I’ll find something at the airport.Hopefully, she didn’t go far.” Jerome waved at me.
“Thank you, Jennifer.”
“Don’t worry,” I said with a forced smile.
“I’ll do what I can to take care of the pack. Be careful, okay? Call us as soon as you find Skylar.”
“I will,” Jerome agreed.
“If you encounter any difficulties, don’t hesitate to tell me.”
“Okay.” Jerome nodded.
Then, all of a sudden, he threw his arms around me tightly.
“Jennifer, I’m sorry.I’m a bad brother.We were separated when we were children.I’ve never taken care of you properly.And now,
I’m asking you to take over the Rainbow Pack for me.”
“So you have to come back soon, or I’ll never forgive you.” I felt a lump in my throat.
Jerome nodded and let go of me.
“All right.Mr.Jones, Jennifer, I’m leaving now.”
He walked towards the plane steadily, glancing back at us from time to time.

When we were sure that Jerome was on board, Anthony and I went back to Rainbow House.
“Please listen to me first.”
As soon as I said that, everyone fell silent.
It was so quiet that one could’ve heard a pin drop.
“Jerome has some personal affairs to deal with, which is why he left Rainbow Pack in a hurry last night.I’m sorry that we weren’t
able to inform you in advance.In the past, my father worked hard to rule the pack, but his position was usurped by Arthur.In order
to prevent the Rainbow Pack from falling into a similar situation, I think the burden of leading the pack should fall on me.I know
there has never been a she-wolf who has intervened in the affairs of the pack, but rules are always man- made.As a result, rules
can change.My brother is not here.There is no one else except me who can lead the pack.In a time as critical as now, we need
to be united and can’t go out of order.Since I have promised my brother to temporarily manage the pack’s affairs, I will try my
best to do it.Why don’t you give me a chance? If I can’t live up to the task, then I will be at your disposal,” I said calmly.
The elders who had initially opposed me finally agreed.
“What you said makes sense, Jennifer.I have no objection anymore,” said one of the elders.
“I agree.”
“We agree, too.”
The other elders also agreed.I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“All right.I hope we can cooperate with each other from now on.Let’s manage Rainbow Pack together.”
“We will cooperate with you, Jennifer.”
“Thank you for your trust, elders.”
I sincerely bowed to them.
When the meeting was over, I couldn’t help but feel relieved.

Anthony’s POV:
Jennifer went to attend the meeting while I stayed in our room alone.
I suddenly received a message from an attendant I had sent out previously.
As I read his text, my heart beat quickened with excitement.
“Mr.Jones, we have found a wizard named Roy.He was spotted near the Rainbow Pack recently.Maybe you can try to contact
him.This is his location.”
Soon after, Jennifer came back.
I told her about the message, which made her jump with joy.
We both hoped that this wizard would help me regain my memories.
Jennifer quickly called Jeff and asked him if he knew a wizard named Roy.
We believed in Jeff’s connections in this field.
As expected, Jeff’s friend happened to know Roy, and even Jeff himself had met Roy many times.
So then we decided to go and meet Roy together.
It was said that Roy was an old and mysterious wizard who lived in a small log cabin in the forest.
Werewolves often tried to convince him to leave the forest, but he was unwilling.
Some even tried to bribe him with money, but he refused.
Jeff continued talking to us about Roy’s story as we waded through the forest in search of his home.
“Roy is there!” Jeff exclaimed all of a sudden.
