Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved, Chapter 307: Wishful Thinking

Amelia’s POV: 

Seeing how hypocritical Larry was being, I felt even more disgusted with him.

What a psychopath! I didn’t want to go with him.

In fact, I didn’t want anything to do with him.

Morgan was so honest and kind; Morgan was a hundred times better than him.

Larry had imprisoned me and abused me for years.

How dare he say he loved me? But I couldn’t fall out with him now.

Thinking about the plan I had discussed with Morgan that day, I took a deep breath and put my disgust aside.

I put on a long face, trying to deceive Larry.

“But I don’t want to go with you, Larry.”

Tears welled up in my eyes convincingly and I broke away from his embrace.

“Why?”

Larry demanded emotionally.

“Honey, are you still in love with that fool?”

“Oh, no, it’s not that.He doesn’t love me, so I don’t love him.But I’m scared to lose my freedom again.I don’t want

to live in the dark like before.”

I buried my face in my hands, pretending to be distressed.

“Honey, I promise I’ll never do that again! I will treat you as well as I possibly can!”

Larry quickly reached out to hold my hand again.

“Amelia, I imprisoned you before because I was worried you’d run away from me.I couldn’t risk losing you.I just

loved you too much.”

Despite my disgust, I managed to look up at him blankly.

“Larry, I can’t accept such kind of love.How can one hurt someone they love? That’s not love, Larry! “Just give me

one more chance, Amelia!”

Larry pleaded sincerely, gently wiping away my tears.He wrapped his arms around me again and started to beg.

“I promise that I’ll never hurt you again.”

It had been years since I had last seen Larry’s gentle side.

Plus, seeing his youthful, handsome face, I couldn’t help but sigh.

Who would have thought that we had loved each other once upon a time? Seeing the desperation in his eyes, I had

to admit that Anthony and Jennifer were right.

I was probably Larry’s only weakness.

Thinking about the past and how Morgan had suffered on the snow mountain for years, I couldn’t help but cry on

Larry’s arm.

Anyway, I refused to ever be together with Larry again.

That selfish, inhuman wizard had tortured me, completely convincing me that his character couldn’t be redeemed.

I loved Morgan.I wanted to be with him and him alone.

“Larry, please give me some time to think it over.My mind is in a mess right now and I can’t make a decision.”

I pretended to consider Larry’s offer.

“There’s no need to think!”

However, Larry was insistent.He held my hand tightly and looked deep into my eyes.

“Can’t you forget about Morgan? I’m going to kill him! Ul kill him right this instant!”

In a matter of seconds, Larry’s gentle side vanished and was replaced with vicious resentment.

His eyes were aflame with hatred, like a demon from hell.

“Oh, no, no!” I said quickly, trying to calm him down.

“I can never be with Morgan. He refuses to let go of my past.” I had to lie to Larry.

He was scaring me.I was afraid he would really go and kill Morgan.

As I spoke, I continued to cry.I cried not only for myself, but also for Morgan.I was so worried about him.

But Larry seemed to believe that I was so sad because Morgan had abandoned me.He quickly simmered down and

continued wiping the tears from my eyes.

“Don’t cry over such a fool.My angel, calm down.Let’s have dinner first.”

Larry’s tone became gentle again.He put his arm around my shoulder and consoled me.

Just then, a waiter started serving the food Larry had ordered.

It didn’t take long before the table was covered with all kinds of delicious dishes.In order to show Larry that I wasn’t

disgusted with him, I sat down obediently and helped myself to the food.

“Oh, honey, try the Iberian ham.I remember how you used to like it very much.”

Seeing that I picked up a knife and fork so willingly, Larry started to serve me with great enthusiasm.

It was as though he actually cared about me.

I looked at him suspiciously from the corner of my eye, wondering what he was up to.

After all, Larry was a lunatic.I needed to stay vigilant around him.

Larry’s POV: 

Ever since Amelia left me, I had been driven crazy.It was all because of that damned king and queen.

Only God knew how much I wanted to take revenge on them, but they were very protective of Amelia and Morgan

as well.

The guards patrolled the grounds and surrounded the royal palace twenty four hours a day.I couldn’t find a single

crack in their defenses.

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to adopt a less invasive strategy.I planned to lure Amelia away from the

palace and convince her to come back with me.

Only then would I be able to think about revenge.

Anyway, I had enough patience.

The king and queen would be killed in due time.

“Amelia, eat more.You’re looking thinner than before.”

I continued to put food on Amelia’s plate with a big smile on my face.I knew that, as we were eating, more than one

pair of eyes were trained on me.

Anthony had been secretly sending his men to keep watch on Amelia.

He probably thought that I didn’t know.

Such being the case, I couldn’t take Amelia away by force.I could only try to convince her to go back with me.

“I really want to kill Anthony and Jennifer.They’re the reason why we’ve broken up, Amelia!” I picked up a few

stewed snails and put them on Amelia’s plate.

“And Morgan.I want to kill them all to vent my hatred.” I spoke loudly on purpose.

“Oh, no, don’t do that, Larry.They are all kind-hearted.I begged them to take me away!” Amelia said hurriedly.

Sure enough, she was frightened.

All the color had drained from her face, and she reached out her trembling hand to hold me.I immediately took her

hand, stroking it gently.

“Honey, I’m doing all of this for you.If you change your mind and come back to me, I will give up the idea of

revenge, okay?”

“Fine.As long as you promise me that you won’t hurt anyone again, I will consider going back with you, Larry.”

Amelia averted her gaze as she spoke.

But what mattered was that she was willing to come back to me! Joy consumed my heart.

Excited, I almost leapt from the table.

“Let’s go right now! Don’t stay in that damned palace any longer.That place reeks with bad luck!”

“Relax, Larry.You have to give me some time to consider things first,” Amelia said quickly.

Time? There was no need to waste time.

I wanted to burn down that stupid palace already.

“I can’t wait a second longer, honey.I miss you so much!”

I hugged Amelia and looked at her affectionately.

When I looked into her tearful eyes, my heart softened for a moment.

“Well, fine.I’ll give you enough time to say goodbye to the past.That’s the only compromise I’m willing to make,

honey.But you have to be able to meet me at any time, as long as I contact you,” I said patiently, wiping away her

tears.

“Sounds good.” Amelia nodded.

“I’ll go back with you as long as you keep your word.”

“Good.Let’s continue eating.” Amelia’s answer cheered me up again.

I put more food into her plate happily.

“Eat some more.If it’s not enough, we can order more food.”

“Okay.Thank you, Larry.You are so considerate.”

Amelia looked up and smiled at me.

I was stunned.

Oh, my God! Amelia was so beautiful when she smiled.

I hadn’t seen her smile in years.

God, she still loved me! I was so excited that my hands started to shake.

“As long as you go back with me, I will do whatever you want, Amelia,” I said sincerely, looking deep into her eyes.

“Okay, you should also eat more.”

Amelia lowered her head to cat.

This was probably the happiest meal I’d had in years.

After leaving the restaurant, I hugged Amelia as a cool night breeze blew towards us.

“I have to get going, Larry,” Amelia said in a low voice.

“I can’t let the king know that I met with you.” Amelia was so kind and naive.
