Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 77: Passion Before Parting

Caroline's POV:

That bitch, Jennifer, was leaving.

Finally! Austin successfully convinced her to go to the Rainbow Pack to investigate the truth.

Surely, he would be able to handle her once she was separated from Anthony.

As long as she never cback, I would be happy.

Anthony would finally be mine.

Although I sincerely wanted Jennifer dead, I needed to pretend to be good to her.

After the banquet, I went to her and expressed my sympathy.

"Jennifer, in my eyes, you're still Anthony's mate.Don't worry.I believe you'll be able to prove your innocence.It makessad to see you be misunderstood.I hope you find out the truth as soon as possible so that you can marry my brother."

As I spoke, I dramatically wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes.

Jennifer noticed this and took a step back in surprise right into the arms of Anthony.

That fucking bitch!

"Miss Wilson, I remember that you were so scared at the banquet that you didn't even dare to approach me," she said.

"I know, I'm so sorry.I was confused and didn't know what to think until now.Please forgive me.I know you're not a jinx.I'll be waiting for your return, together with my mother and brother." I tried to look as

sincere as possible.

Jennifer smiled and said nothing.

Good.

I didn't want to talk too much with her either.

"Mom, Anthony, Jennifer, I'm leaving now." I waved at them and left the venue.

But actually, I went to Austin.

I wanted to discuss his plan to deal with Jennifer.I found Austin sitting on a sofa, a cigar pinched between his fingers.

He looked cynical yet triumphant at the stime.

"Austin, how are you going to deal with Jennifer?"

"It's simple, really."

Austin took a long drag on his cigar and smiled.

"I asked Jennifer to go back to the Rainbow Pack to separate her from Anthony.Without Anthony, she will be powerless.Killing her will be a piece of cake."

"Awesome!" I exclaimed, clapping my hands happily.

"With Jennifer out of the picture, I'll finally have the chance to be with Anthony.Don't worry.I won't let him usurp your throne."

"Caroline, does cooperating withmake you feel good? Together, we managed to stop Jennifer and Anthony from announcing their marriage.Let's have swine to celebrate our success."

Austin poured a glass and handed it to me.

I took the glass gratefully and sat next to him.

After two glasses of wine, Austin grew restless.

He pulledto sit on his lap, and started to fondle my chest.

I could also feel his part growing hard and firm.

I couldn't deny that his touch aroused me.

It didn't take long before I could feel a sticky fluid sliding down my thigh.

I clamped my legs shut instinctively, hoping Austin wouldn't notice.

If I was completely honest with myself, I missed having sex with him.

But he had treatedmerely as a sex slave and cruelly abused me.

As those memories flooded my mind, I went stiff.

"Caroline, I want to fuck you..."

Austin grabbed my hand and pressed it against his crotch.Feeling his burning object in my hand, I couldn't help but gulp excitedly.But still, I had to put a stop to this.

"Austin, we're partners now.We can't do this." I forced myself to retract my hand.

"Let's get back to work. I might have found a way to deal with Anthony."

"Really?" Austin raised her eyebrows.

"How? Tell me." My family used to be a famous clan in Osman Kingdom.

My mother had a lot of friends in high places, and even was in contact with swizards.

I managed to find a wizard who was willing to listen to my proposal.

Of course, I couldn't tell Austin all my plans.

He was a wild card, so I couldn't show him all of my cards yet.

So I smiled and dropped the topic.

"I haven't made all the arrangements yet.You will understand when the tis ripe." I proposed a toast to him.

"To Jennifer's demise."

"Well, I'm looking forward to whatever you have to show me."

Austin sneered, but he clinked his glass against mine nonetheless.

Then we drank the night away.

Anthony's POV:

I took Jennifer back to my room. She looked exhausted. I couldn't help but feel sorry and worried for her.

"Don't be sad, Jennifer," I murmured into her ear, pulling her to sit on the bed with me.

"I know what happened today was totally unexpected.But don't doubt yourself, Jennifer.You are not a jinx.That's just bullshit.Honey, I only care about you.You're the only mate for me."

"Anthony, I know you're being sincere, and I really like that about you.I'm so happy we met.With you by my side, I'm not afraid of anything."

Jennifer threw her arms around my neck and huggedback.

"I just hate Arthur so much.I really want to tear him into pieces.He killed my father.I'm sure of it.How dare he calla jinx? Today at the banquet, I really wanted to expose his true colors, but I couldn't.I don't have any evidence.Anthony, I really want to find out the truth.I have to get to the bottom of this.I will not only prove my innocence, but also avenge my father!"

"I know how you feel." I held her tighter.

"You will succeed, and I will do my best to help you.You will always be the great Jennifer in my eyes, and no one can defeat you.But Austin is a bad guy.Since he's the one who suggested you go back to the Rainbow Pack, he must be planning something.Be careful and keep updating me.If you encounter any problem, tellimmediately."

"I will be careful.Don't worry."

Jennifer nestled against my chest and nodded.

"I'm going to ask Dylan to follow you.He is your brother, after all.Swerewolves in Rainbow Pack may recognize him, so he will stay in the dark.He used to be my assistant.I know his capabilities.He'll be able to shadow you without anyone finding out."

I cupped Jennifer's face with my hands.

"What do you think?"

"That's so kind of you," Jennifer said softly.

"Actually, I think it will be good for him to go to the Rainbow Pack.Perhaps he'll regain his memories after reuniting with our old pack.I have no idea how he lost his memories.I hope the brother I once knew will cback."

"Jennifer, everything will be okay." I caressed her long hair and stared into her eyes lovingly.

Finally, I couldn't take it anymore.

I lifted her chin, leaned over, and kissed her.

We were going to part with each other for a while.

We needed to make passionate love before then.

She tasted so sweet.I was addicted to her.A kiss was far from enough.I wanted her.

I wanted her sweet scent and her soft body.
