Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved

Linda’s POV:

I woke up early the next morning, while Jerome was still asleep.

Looking at his sleeping face brought me a sense of joy that I hadn’t felt in a long time.

Nothing had happened between us last night.

Despite how hard I had tried to seduce him, Jerome didn’t want to have sex with me at all.

In the end, I had no choice but to take off his clothes and lie next to him naked.

Lying next to each other naked was enough.

With that, I’d be able to convince Jerome that we had sex last night.

I decided to deal a heavy blow to Skylar.

So I sneaked into the bathroom and called Andy.

“Andy, my dear son.Go find Skylar right now and ask her to take you to find your dad, okay?”

“Mom, where are you?” Andy asked.

“Andy, don’t worry about that.Ask Skylar to take you to see your dad first, okay?”

“Okay, Mom,”

Andy agreed on the other end of the line.I knew my son well.

No matter how confused he was, he would listen to me and do as I said.



After hanging up the phone, I tiptoed back to bed, tightly clung onto Jerome’s naked body, and

pretended to be fast asleep.

A while later, I felt movement next to me.

It seemed that Jerome was stirring from his sleep.

“Linda? Why are you here?”

Jerome asked in panic and pushed me away without hesitation.

Did he loathe me this much? His first reaction after waking up in the same bed as me was to push

me away.

I suppressed my frustration and blinked sleepily, as if I had just woken up.

Then, I crawled into his arms with an aggrieved look.

“Jerome, we had sex last night.You know what? It’s been a long time since I felt this happy.”

“Linda, what are you talking about?” Jerome’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“What on earth happened? I was drinking with Skylar last night.Why are you in my bed?”

“Jerome, you don’t remember? You got so drunk last night.I was worried about you, so I came to

see if you were okay.But you held onto me and didn’t let me go.You kept talking about our past

together, Jerome.You said you couldn’t forget me, and that you looked for me for a long time.”

I tried my best to tell him a believable lie.

“That’s impossible.Why would I say something like that to you? I love Skylar.I wouldn’t want to sleep

with anyone else, no matter how drunk I was,”



His scent was all over them.

Skylar’s POV:

After a night of drinking, I had a terrible hangover and a splitting headache.

I opened my eyes with some difficulty and stared blankly at the ceiling.I still felt tired and sleepy.

I vaguely remembered Jennifer bringing me back to my room last night and giving me some

medicine to dispel the effect of the alcohol.

Other than that, I couldn’t remember anything about last night.

My mind was in a mess.

I put on my slippers and lugged myself to the bathroom.

Once I washed my face, I felt a little more sober.

At this time, I heard a knock on the door.

“Hang on.”

After changing my clothes, I went to open the door.

To my surprise, the person who had come to see me was the kid, Andy.

“Little guy, what are you doing here?” I asked, touching his head.





“I miss my dad.Can you take me to see him? Mom didn’t come back last night, so I had to sleep

alone.I was so scared,” Andy cried.

“Oh, you poor baby.Come on, let’s go see your dad.”

Feeling sorry for him, I took his hand.

“Okay.Thank you.”

Andy nodded.

He was just a small kid who had grown up without knowing his father.

He must have had a hard time until now.

Children shouldn’t be involved in the grudges of adults.

“Don’t worry.We’re going to see your dad right now.”

Holding Andy’s hand, I walked towards Jerome’s room.

“But why did you sleep alone? Where was your mother?” I frowned.

It was odd for Linda to leave her child alone the whole night.

“I don’t know where she went.” Andy shrugged.

“All right.You can play with your dad after you see him, okay?”

We got to Jerome’s room.

I was about to knock the door when I realized that it wasn’t completely closed, let alone locked.



I pushed the door open in confusion.

“Why didn’t Jerome close the door?”

I murmured to myself.

Why was he so careless? I was going to take Andy inside, but the scene that greeted me made me

stop in my tracks.

My hand froze on the doorknob.

Were my eyes deceiving me? Jerome was sitting on the bed as expected, but next to him was

Linda.

He was patting her shoulder as if he was coaxing her, while her eyes were red with tears.

Jerome was only wearing pajamas.

As for Linda…she was wearing his clothes.

The floor was a mess.

Upon closer look, I recognized the clothes on the floor as the ones they had both worn last night at

the dinner party.

What had they done last night? I was not a stupid girl.

The moment I saw the floor, I knew that Jerome and Linda had slept together.

I had always trusted my mate, even after his ex- girlfriend had reappeared in his life.

I didn’t mind that he had another woman to take care of, or even that he had a son.



But now, Linda was sitting on Jerome’s bed, wearing his clothes, and stealing my place! She was

sleeping with him.

I knew that from this moment on, my relationship with Jerome was irreparable.

We could never be together.

Shock and anger filled my brain.

I couldn’t keep calm anymore.

The only thought in my mind was that Jerome betrayed me.

He was in bed with another woman.

It was like my heart was being torn apart.

“Andy, wait outside for a while.Don’t come in.”

After telling Andy that, I closed the door behind me and walked up to Jerome.

“Jerome, is this a surprise for me? Is this what you meant by true love? It turns out that I’m just a

fool that you’ve been lying to.”

I questioned Jerome in anger, but my body was trembling and tears were running down my cheeks.I

couldn’t control myself.I had never been so heartbroken before.
