Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 242

Morgan's POV: 

When Elizabeth told me that Amelia was waiting for me, I was so happy that I couldn't control my emotions.I was finally going to see my dearest Amelia again after so many years! 

"Amelia!"

My palms were sweating from anticipation as I looked for her amongst the crowd.I didn't expect that I could meet Amelia again.

"Amelia! Amelia! Where are you?"

I noticed surprised glances from the people as I shouted her name loudly, but I didn't care because I just wanted to find Amelia.

"Morgan? Is that you?"

Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice and it felt as though the entire world around me had come to a pause.I turned around slowly and as soon as I saw Amelia, tears of joy welled up in my eyes.I had missed her day and night for so many years.

The realization that many years had passed since the last time we were together hit me like a ton of bricks.

Although she looked a little older than she did in my memory, her eyes were still unchanged.

"Amelia!"

My voice trembled as I took her name once again.I walked towards her as muffled sobs wracked against my chest.

"Yes, it's me!"

There was a look of shock and disbelief on Amelia's face.

Her voice rose in excitement which told me that she was happy to see me too.

"Morgan! It's really you.Oh my God! Am I dreaming?"

Amelia walked towards me.

Although we weren't as youthful as we once were, at that moment, not even the crowd could stop us.

We pushed our way through the people and jumped into each other's arms.

"Morgan, what are you doing here?"

Amelia broke into tears as she sobbed and pulled me close.

She held my face in her hands and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"I thought I would never see you again.I wanted to look for you but I didn't know if you had married someone else and started a new life."

"No, Amelia.I love you.How could I let you go?"

I had dreamt about this moment for many years.I could feel the warmth of her palms on my cheeks.

Time took away her youth, but it did not take away her tenderness.

"Morgan, I've missed you so much.I've thought about you every day since we parted ways."

Amelia cried in my arms.

"Me too, Amelia.I never thought that I would get to hold you in my arms again."

My hands were trembling, but I still managed to compose myself.I was afraid that this was all just a dream and once I let go of her, Amelia would be gone forever.

"Morgan, how did you know that I'm here?" Amelia asked after she finally calmed down.

"It was all because of you, Amelia!" I looked at her with a big smile.

"After you disappeared, I decided to spend the rest of my life on the snow mountain.Then, I met Mr.Jones and his mate a few days ago because they were there looking for the divine flower to remove the Love Curse.It was you who helped them find the solution.After the Love Curse was removed, I came back with them to look for you."

"Thank heavens you are here now!"

Amelia wiped her tears and smiled as if she had returned to her youth.

"I can't believe that I am looking at you with my own eyes.Morgan, all my regrets have disappeared now."

"Amelia, what happened all those years ago? Why did you disappear from my life?" I asked in a hurry.

They were questions that had been buried inside my heart for many years.

Anthony had told me that they rescued Amelia from Larry's log cabin, but I didn't understand why Amelia fell into Larry's hands in the first place.

"It was all because of Larry."

Amelia furrowed her eyebrows.

"I remember I told you that I was in a relationship with another wizard before I met you.That wizard was Larry.We couldn't be together because his father didn't approve of our relationship.I knew that we weren't destined to be together, so I gradually gave up on our relationship, but he was extremely persistent on me."

Amelia's eyes widened as she tugged at my sleeve.

"You know what, Morgan? He was crazy! He broke in when you were out and subdued me with black magic.I couldn't fight back as I was pregnant at the time.He took me away and locked me up in his log cabin.I spent decades not feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin."

I couldn't believe my ears.I felt so sorry for Amelia.I held her in my arms after hearing what she said.

"All these years, I thought you stopped loving me.It was actually Larry who had kidnapped you.I should have been there to stop him.I'm sorry, Amelia.It was my fault!"

I was filled with feelings of remorse as I thought of the horrors Ametia had to suffer because of me.I felt extremely guilty because I had failed to protect her.

"Amelia, our child..."

My heart sank at the thought of what might have happened to our child.Although I roughly guessed what fate had befallen our child, a glimmer of hope still lingered in my heart.

Amelia's POV: 

I didn't expect to see my husband, Morgan, again.
