Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 301

Carl's POV: 

I sat on the sofa all by myself sipping beer out of a can from time to time.

The thought of Jennifer brought a bitter taste in my mouth.

She was now King Anthony's beloved queen.

Although it was nice to see her again, it seemed as though the years had pulled us further away from each other.

I decided to watch TV to distract myself, so I picked up the remote control and pointed it at the screen.

As soon as the screen lit up, the news broadcaster on the TV said, "King Anthony and his beloved Queen Jennifer have finally tied the knot.At long last, their prayers of a happy ending had been answered.What a grand wedding it was! The atmosphere was very buzzing.It was clear to see that King Anthony is deeply in love with the queen.Let's wish our royal couple a blessed and everlasting union!"

Then, Anthony and Jennifer's wedding photos started popping up on the screen while some cheesy ballad music played in the background.

The moment I saw pictures of them kissing, I couldn't help but feel sad.The memories of my childhood washed over me like a tide.

In truth, I wanted to forget the memories from when I used to live with my adoptive parents from the Rainbow Pack.

My adoptive parents had to take several measures to ensure that no one knew who I really was.

They were not wealthy, to begin with, and after they adopted me, their lives became harder.I remember being laughed at by all the other kids in school because my clothes were so old and ragged.

They would call me Omega because I was poor.

I knew that life was not easy for my adoptive parents, so I never fought back against those who mocked me because I was afraid of drawing attention to myself.I could endure the humiliation, but the bullying didn't stop.

In fact, my passive response gave them more courage and things got worst until Jennifer showed up and defended me.I still remembered the first time I saw her.

She stood before those children who were laughing at me with both hands on her hips as if she was some sort of superhero.

She grabbed one of the boys by his collar and pushed him to the ground like it was nothing.

"Haven't your parents taught you not to bully others? Only the weak feel pleasure in bullying others!"

Jennifer's words were etched into my brain.She drove the bullies away and pulled me up with a smile.

"Are you okay? My name is Jennifer."

It was that smile of hers that stole my heart, but I didn't know it then.

Later that same day, I found out that she was the Alpha's daughter and no one ever bullied me again ever since.

Although some of the parents told their children not to play with me, Jennifer would always hang out and share snacks with me.

It was after I got to know her better that I realized just how much I adored her, and before I knew it, my adoration had turned into feelings of love for Jennifer.

I would find myself thinking about her when we weren't together.I had imagined thousands of ways for us to meet again, but I had never expected that it would happen on the day of her wedding to the king.

She was now bound to another man by marriage.

Even if I was Alpha, she was beyond my reach now.

"Don't be silly, Carl."

I told myself not to think of her, but Jennifer's smile was still lingering in my mind.I kept drinking, hoping I would just fall asleep and forget about Jennifer.

When I finished the third can of beer, I could hardly keep my eyes open.

In my stupor, I noticed someone take away the can from my hand.

Stunned, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me.

After all, I was alone in the room.I whipped my head around the room and saw a man, dressed in black, standing right behind me.

"Who are you?" I got up almost immediately and took a few steps back.

"How dare you get in here without my permission?"

"Don't be so nervous.I'm here to help you."

The mysterious man smiled at me and reached out his hand.
