Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved

Anthony’s POV:
I severely regretted splitting up with Jennifer while searching for my mother, but the time that Austin had given Jennifer was
too short.
It was nearly impossible to find my mother in such a short time.
Things got worse when I failed to find my mother and lost contact with Jennifer.
I tried to call her, but she didn’t reply.
I had a feeling that Jennifer was in danger.
I had never been so anxious before.
I searched high and low for Jennifer, foregoing sleep.
I wished that I could check every corner of Osman Kingdom.However, before Jennifer could be found, Caroline reappeared.
Caroline had been with my mother when they had both disappeared.I decided to question her about the incident.
“Caroline, Mom accompanied you when you went to try on a wedding dress.What happened after you two disappeared?”I
asked, looking Caroline in the eye.
“I don’t know what happened, Anthony.I was so scared.”Caroline’s eyes were wide in terror and tears threatened to spill.
“That day, when we went to the dress shop, someone knocked me out.When I regained consciousness, Mom was no longer
by my side, and I was in an unfamiliar place.I don’t know what happened to her.It was a struggle to find my way home.But
thankfully, I made it, and you’re here.What about you, Anthony? Have you heard any news about Mom? Is she still missing?
What about Jennifer? Where is she?”
Caroline looked very sincere.
“Both Mom and Jennifer are missing.” I sighed and frowned.
Caroline’s reaction told me that she had no idea of what had happened.

It was useless for me to continue to interrogate her.
“Don’t worry, Anthony.I’ll help you look for Mom.”
Caroline clung to my arm.
“God will watch over them.Mom and Jennifer will be safe.But since Mom is missing, I’m not in the mood to think about getting
married.Mom found a decent mate for me, and I was satisfied with him.But I don’t want to think about getting married until
Mom comes back.Is that okay, Anthony?”
“Let’s talk about it when we find Mom.” I nodded.
The next morning, I returned to Marge Island.
I came back, hoping that Jennifer had ended up there.
From sunrise to sunset, I checked the whole island, but my search turned up nothing.
By dusk, I was depressed.
As I walked along the cliffs overlooking the sea, I looked back on what had happened between me and Jennifer.
The times we spent together had been beautiful but painfully short.
Out of the blue, I heard a familiar voice.
“Anthony!” I was shocked.
The voice was Jennifer’s.
I could not be wrong.
Oh my God! Was I hallucinating from missing her so much? I turned around and saw Jennifer approaching me.
She was soaking wet, and her hair was a mess.
She had fresh wounds all over her body, and blood dripped to the ground.
She looked exhausted as if she had just emerged from a long and difficult battle.

Jennifer was back.
But she was seriously injured.
Had she gotten into danger while looking for my mother? The strong smell of blood and the familiar scent of our mate bond
wafted towards me at the same time.
In my mind, Zane exclaimed, “Jennifer!”
There was no doubt that she was really standing here in front of me right now.
I pulled her close and held her in my arms.
“Jennifer, you’re here! I was afraid that I’d lost you forever.”
“I’m back, Anthony.”
Her hands gripped my waist.
At that moment, all I felt was happiness and relief that she was with me.
But that didn’t last long because I felt pain coming from my chest.
I looked down and realized that I had just been stabbed by the very woman in my arms.She had stabbed me.
“Go to hell, Anthony!” she sneered as she took out a pistol, ready to take my life.
Only then did I realize what had just happened.
This woman was not Jennifer.
Someone must have managed to disguise as Jennifer and replicate her scent so that I would drop my guard.
Thinking quickly, I stumbled backwards to put some distance between us.
At that moment, more than a dozen werewolves rushed out from the forest.
They all carried weapons and fired their guns at me.

With my injury, I knew that I could not win if I engaged with these werewolves.
Avoiding the shower of bullets, I ran towards the edge of the cliff and jumped into the sea.
I landed with a splash.
