OUTCAST: THE ALPHA KING’S BELOVED - Season 1 Episode 12

Jennifer’s POV:

Elizabeth was wearing a gorgeous gown, but she looked thin and haggard.

Obviously, she had been ill for a long time.

Nevertheless, she looked like an amiable woman.

She was probably in good spirits after finding out that Prince Anthony had found his mate.

“Are you Jennifer?” Elizabeth asked excitedly, getting up from her seat and rushing towards me to

receive me.

The maid next to her reached out and supported her in a hurry.

“Mrs.Jones, you are still sick.Please take care of yourself.”

“It doesn’t matter.I know what I am doing,” Elizabeth said sternly, pushing her hand away.

“Nice to meet you, Mrs.Jones,” I greeted, curtsying to her.

“Don’t be so formal.” She grinned from ear to ear, holding my hand.

“Are you hungry? Delicious food is being prepared. You must stay for dinner.”

It was very kind of her to say that, but I didn’t want to agree rashly, so I turned to look at Anthony,

who gave me a nod.

“Don’t look at him. I make the decisions,” Elizabeth said, winking at me.

“You don’t have to go back tonight.After so long, he’s finally found his mate.You have to stay with

me for a while.”

“Mom, Jennifer needs to train tomorrow,” Prince Anthony reminded her.

“Let’s have dinner first.”

With a big smile, Elizabeth held my hand tightly and ignored her son.I felt relieved.

She was way kinder than I thought she would be.

I liked her not because of her status, but because of her warm demeanor.

If my mother was still alive, she would be at a similar age.

The royal dinner was not as stiff and formal as I thought it would, but maybe it was because

Elizabeth was an open -minded person.

I talked a lot with her until dusk.

After dinner, the sky was completely dark, and it began to rain.

Prince Anthony insisted on taking me back to Marge Island, so we bid Elizabeth goodbye and

walked to the car.

But just as we were about to set out, Elizabeth’s maid ran over with an umbrella and stopped

Anthony, who already had his hands on the wheel.

“Mr.Jones, your mother is not feeling well. Please come and have a look.”

“What?”

Anthony and I got out of the car and rushed back into the palace.

Elizabeth was lying in the bed in her room, and the court doctor was examining her body.

After a while, he came over and said, “Mr.Jones, your mother is fine.”

It was only then that Anthony and I let out a sigh of relief.

“You can stay here tonight,” Elizabeth said in a frail voice, holding my hand.

I couldn’t bear to refuse her, and it seemed that neither could Anthony, because after pausing for a

moment, he agreed.

In order to take care of her, Anthony and I stayed wanted to stay as close to her as possible.

Unexpectedly, the maid arranged only one room for the two of us.

“Mr.Jones, don’t you want them to arrange another room for me?” I asked in confusion.

“No need.” Hearing that made me blush immediately.

“What?”

“My mother specially arranged this room for us.”

It was said that a mother knew her son better than anyone else, but the reverse applied, too.

Anthony knew that Elizabeth was deliberately making us sleep in the same room, so he didn’t want

to refuse her, and just followed her arrangement.

Although he always acted cold, he was actually a warm- hearted person.

So I stopped struggling in my heart.

After entering the room, I walked around and looked around to ease the embarrassment of being

alone with him.

It was a large room with an attached bathroom, a washstand, large French windows, and a walk-in

closet, in which there was a variety of women’s clothes.

All the clothes were brand new, and some of them were so sexy and revealing that they made me

feel embarrassed. “These are all your size.I guess my mother asked someone to buy them for

you,”

Anthony remarked.He was sitting on the sofa and looking at me.

The big bed next to him was decorated with roses strewn around the bed in the shape of a big

heart.

On the floor, there were candles, and the chandelier hanging above his head emanated a dim hazy

glow that could leave one feeling intoxicated.

All in all, the room was decorated as if it was for newly- weds.

Coupled with what Prince Anthony said about the clothes, I felt even more embarrassed.

When I looked over at him, I saw that his ears were also red, and he was avoiding my eyes.

Obviously, he felt as uneasy as I did, if not more.

At this time, faint footsteps came from outside.

“My mother is outside,” Prince Anthony said in a low voice.

“She’s eavesdropping?” I couldn’t believe it.

How could she do such a thing? But Prince Anthony just gave me a nod of confirmation.

“Then what should we do?”

By this point, I was so embarrassed that I wished the floor would open me up and swallow me

whole.

“Go to sleep.” Prince Anthony lay down on the sofa, obviously offering the bed to me.

Of course, it made sense.

From what I knew about Prince Anthony, tolerating staying in the same room with me was already a

big deal for him.

How could he really do something else just to let his mother overhear it? Shaking my head, I went

over to the bed and lay down.

The bed was big and comfortable, but I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to fall asleep knowing that

I was in the same room as Prince Anthony.

To my surprise, I dozed off quite quickly, and I had a very good sleep.

It seemed that staying in the same room with Prince Anthony was actually comforting for me.

The next morning, Prince Anthony and I left the royal palace and returned to Marge Island before

dawn.

He was afraid that his mother would come up with some excuse or another to retain us longer.

After slipping back in unnoticed, I rushed to the training ground.

Today was officially the first day of training.

Carson asked us to divide ourselves into pairs and practice attacking and defending.

I teamed up with a werewolf called Daniel, and the opponents assigned to us were Barbara and

Kevin.

It was said that enemies were bound to meet, and it seemed that it was true.

It was because of Barbara that Skylar and I had been late yesterday, and I hadn’t settled accounts

with her yet.

Today, I could take this opportunity to get back at her.

Since it was a training match between teams that each consisted of a male and a female, Daniel

would fight against Kevin, while I took on Barbara.

I was confident that I could beat Barbara to a pulp.

I wanted to teach her the consequences of bullying others.

Before each match, the members of the two teams were supposed to introduce themselves and

shake hands.

“Hello, I’m Daniel from Black Stone Pack,”

Daniel said, holding out his right hand to me.

“I’m glad to be in your team.”

I shook hands with him, and we exchanged smiles of greeting.

Daniel was handsome with delicate facial features, especially his eyes, which were as beautiful as

shining black pearls.

He had a smiling face, which made me feel warm and comfortable.

“I’m Jennifer,” I told him.

At that moment, Barbara rudely chimed in, “She is a slave from our pack.Everyone knows that she’s

a bitch.Daniel, I heard that you are the heir of an Alpha.Why waste your time with a bitch?”

Hearing that, Daniel looked at me in astonishment.I turned red and looked away, hating Barbara

even more.

“The team training starts now!”Carson announced, blowing on his whistle.

“This is an attacking and defending training.Everyone should be mentally prepared for getting

injured.But remember to control yourself and not hurt the opponent too badly.”

“You don’t have to take others’ words seriously, Jennifer.My intuition tells me that you are not that

kind of a person, ”

Daniel said comfortingly, patting me on the shoulder.

I shot him a grateful look, and he smiled gently.

Hearing Carson’s whistle, I clenched my fists and punched Barbara in the face.
