Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved novel Chapter 77

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 came back, 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 makes me sad 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 same time.

"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 with me make you feel good? Together, we managed to stop Jennifer and Anthony from announcing their marriage.Let's have some wine 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 pulled me to 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 treated me merely as a sex slave and cruelly abused me.

As those memories flooded my mind, I went stiff.
