Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved

Jennifer’s POV:
“Do you smell that?” I grabbed Dylan’s arm urgently.
“Dylan, do you smell something off?” Dylan frowned and glanced around.
“Yeah, I’m picking up a faint scent.I caught a whiff of it ever since we got out of the hotel.There were so many werewolves in
the area, so I didn’t think much of it.But now that I can still smell it, even in such an empty place, I do feel that something’s off.
” His expression darkened.
“Jennifer, do you think someone’s following us?”
“Exactly!” I nodded solemnly, scanning our surroundings carefully to see if I could spot our stalker.
Suddenly, a beautiful girl emerged.She seem to come out of nowhere, which took us aback.She was wearing a pink shirt and
black jeans.
Her golden curly hair was shining in the sunlight, framing her face pleasantly.
A warm, friendly smile was on her face, which made me feel like she wasn’t hostile.
“Hi, my name’s Helen.I’m a she-wolf from the Rainbow Pack.Are you looking for Elder Tony? I’m sorry, but I’m afraid you’ll be
disappointed.Elder Tony passed away a long time ago.”
The girl greeted us with a smile.My eyes went wide with shock.
“Elder Tony is dead? How?”
“This is not a good place to talk.Let’s go somewhere else.”
Helen patted me on the shoulder reassuringly.
“If you believe me, come with me.By the way, Elder Tony’s death is a bit of a mystery, so you’d better be careful who you talk
to.You might attract some unwanted attention.”
“Thank you, Helen.” I nodded to her gratefully.

“We’ll be careful.”
By now, I was sure it was Helen who had been following us.
Although we had never met before, I felt like I could trust her.
Perhaps it was her enthusiasm and cheerful disposition that brought me to believe in what she was saying.
While I didn’t know why she followed us, she didn’t look like she had any ulterior motives, and even offered up some
information about Tony.
Plus, even if she wanted to hurt us, we outnumbered her.
She didn’t stand a chance.
After discussing, we decided to follow her.
Helen led us to a private room in a cafe.
When all of us were inside, she shut the door cautiously.
The way she acted made me wonder if there was more to Tony’s death.
“Helen, you can trust everyone in this room. You can talk freely now,”
I said, sinking on the sofa. I looked up and smiled at her.
“We haven’t been properly introduced.I’m Jennifer.This is my brother Dylan.The other two are my friends, Skylar and Daniel.”
“You’re Jennifer?” Helen exclaimed in disbelief.
“Yeah.Why? What’s wrong?” I looked at her in confusion.
How did she know my name? “No, nothing.You just have a nice name, that’s all.”
Helen smiled and changed the topic.
“So, Jennifer, why are you looking for Elder Tony?”

“We want to ask him some questions.Elder Tony was known to be good at predicting the future.But I’m sure you already knew
that.”
When Helen heard my name, she reacted abnormally.I thought there might be a reason, but since Helen didn’t want to tell
me, I chose not to pry.
“I see.I’ll tell you everything I know.Alpha Arthur rules over our pack quite cruelly, and we have grown very cautious.Elder
Tony’s death was, in a word, odd.Not long after Arthur became the Alpha, Elder Tony suddenly died.They said he had gotten
sick out of the blue.But the strange thing is, nobody knows where he was buried.It was like he disappeared into thin air.My
father’s also an elder of the Rainbow Pack, and he’s the one who told me all of this.He has a theory that that Elder Tony
might actually be alive, but that he’s afraid of Arthur, so he might never show himself ever again.” Helen spoke frankly and
openly.
“Elder Tony is afraid of Arthur? Why?” I frowned in confusion, trying to process everything Helen just told us.
“I don’t know either.” Helen smiled helplessly.
“But I can go home and ask my father.”
“Helen, thank you so much for your help,” I said gratefully.
“We’ve never met before.Why are you telling us all of this?”
“Well, I haven’t been completely honest. My father and I were patrolling the streets today.He happened to see you.Although
he didn’t see you guys up close, he felt that you two, Jennifer and Dylan, looked familiar, so he asked me to follow
you.Please forgive me if I have offended you.My father has been investigating Elder Tony’s case for years.When I heard that
you were looking for Elder Tony, I called you here.”
After saying that, Helen’s eyes lit up and she pointed at Daniel, who was sitting next to me.
“Actually, another reason why I was following you was because of this handsome werewolf.Hey, handsome.It’s nice to meet
you!”
Daniel’s POV:
I was surprised when Helen suddenly pointed at me.

When she first approached us earlier, I just thought she was good-looking, but I didn’t feel anything more than that.
