Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 7

Jennifer's POV: 

I made it! My knees were ready to give out at any moment, but when I saw Prince Anthony's gaze of approval, I felt that everything was worth it.

I sincerely thanked him again and again for helping me.

Now, I could attend the elite training.

I had finally taken the first step on the path of revenge.

After the trials were over, I lingered behind in the competition field for a while and silently watched Prince Anthony.

Standing in the distance, he just glanced at me and left.

I was confused.

Didn't he know about our mate bond? After the ceremony, the crowd dispersed.

I left the competition field with wounds all over my  body.

Werewolves recovered at an extremely fast speed, so I didn't care about these injuries at all.

Besides, I wasn't afraid of pain.

The only thing I was afraid of was not being able to avenge my father.

On the way back home, I was walking past an alley when I heard a voice from behind.

"Bitch, do you think you're all that just because you got selected? I'll make it impossible for you to attend the training!"

It was Barbara.

When I turned around to face her, I saw that she was accompanied by four other she-wolves.

These she-wolves were her lackeys; they would do whatever she ordered them to.

The five of them seemed to be waiting here for me.

Barbara pointed at me and ordered, "Don't show any mercy.

Beat this bitch to death!"

As soon as she finished her words, the four she-wolves pounced on me at the same time.

My leg was injured, so I couldn't dodge them in time.

Damn it! Wasn't Barbara tired of picking on me like this? The she-wolves scratched my skin and hit me everywhere.

Their expressions were ferocious, and they had crazed looks in their eyes.

Blood began dripping from the scratches on my face, and I felt a burning pain.

Barbara didn't join them.

She just stood aside and appreciated the miserable situation I was in.

"Beat her! Beat this bitch to death.How dare she steal the show? She deserves it,"she snarled.

I refused to give up.I couldn't let them bully me like this.

The pain made me break out into a cold sweat, but I endured it and fought back with all my strength.

However, I couldn't change the fact that I was outnumbered.

Moreover, I had used up almost all of my strength during the trials.

Gradually, they overpowered me.

One of them kicked me in the abdomen, making me recoil in pain.

The whole time, Barbara was laughing wildly as she watched the show.

But all of a sudden, her laughter stopped.

Through my blurred vision, I saw her running away.

What was going on? Why was she running away so abruptly? A tall man appeared into my view.

The four she-wolves who had been beating me up suddenly froze, and their faces went deathly pale.

"Mr...Jones," one of them called out.

"Fuck off!"

Prince Anthony said coldly.

The four she-wolves didn't have to be told twice; they bolted away from the scene immediately.

At this moment, my head was heavy, and I was hanging onto the last shred of consciousness.

When II looked up at Prince Anthony, who stood there with a noble aura, I felt as if I found a glimmer of hope.

"Get up."

Prince Anthony stretched out his hand to me.

I struggled to raise my wrist and slowly approached his hand with my fingertips.

At this moment, he was like an angel sent from heaven to save me.

Anthony's POV: 

Jennifer didn't look well.

After the trials, I wanted to escort her back in person, but I knew that it would draw too much attention.

So after taking a look at her, I left the competition venue.
