Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved

Skylar’s POV: 

I lived a happy life on Rube Island, but I found myself missing Jennifer a lot of the time, so I often called her.

Just now, she seemed a little busy.

Not wanting to take up too much of her time, I said goodbye after a while.

After the phone call with Jennifer, I slipped my hand into Jerome’s and leaned on his broad chest.

“Honey, Jennifer said they’ve been very busy recently and might not be able to visit us any time soon.But she’s my

best friend and I miss her.”

Jerome put his forehead against mine and gently stroked my bulging belly in an effort to comfort me.

“Don’t be sad, love.You know that Jennifer and Anthony will definitely come visit us as soon as they’re free.Cheer

up, okay?”

Even though I forced a smile at him, I still felt a bit depressed.

“Skylar, how about we go to the movies tomorrow?”

Noticing that I was still in low spirits, Jerome tried to cheer me up.

“Let’s eat good food and go shopping after.You can buy whatever you want.”

I perked up instantly.

“Okay!”

As long as Jerome was with me, I would be happy no matter what we did.

The next day, after lunch, Jerome and I headed out to the cinema to watch a movie.

Fortunately, the cinema wasn’t that far from our new home.

Jerome and I walked hand in hand along the seaside, chatting casually.

When we reached the ticket window, he asked me, “Honey, which movie do you want to watch?”

I quickly scanned through the movies on the screen before pointing at one called Blue Sunrise.

“This one.How about you? Is it okay with you if we watch a romantic movie?”

“I’ll watch whatever you want to watch, honey.”

Jerome winked at me and gave my hand a light squeeze.

Then, he bought two tickets to Blue Sunrise.

We were lucky, because the earliest show was going to begin in five minutes.

After buying the tickets, we went straight to the movie hall and had our tickets checked.

As soon as Jerome and I sat down, the lights went out.

In the dark, I could feel Jerome’s hand holding mine.

Suddenly, he turned to me and whispered with regret, “Are you thirsty, honey? I should have bought some drinks

before we came in.”

“I’m okay.Thank you.

We can buy some when we go out,”

I whispered back, feeling warm in my heart.

Jerome was such a thoughtful guy.

Soon, the movie began to play.

I focused on the love story that began to unfold on the screen.

The encounter between the hero and the heroine was so romantic that I couldn’t help but smile.

When they began to kiss affectionately, I! suddenly heard Jerome’s gentle voice.

“Skylar…”

I tore my gaze away from the screen and turned to see Jerome looking at me affectionately.

His handsome face made my heart skip a beat.

Without hesitation, I leaned towards him.

We were like two magnets that couldn’t help but gravitate towards each other.

Before I knew it, we were hugging each other tightly and kissing passionately under the dim light of the projector.

On screen and off-screen, love was in the air.

When the movie was over, Jerome took me shopping.

I bought a lot of clothes and other necessities for the baby.

While we went from store to store, I talked with Jerome about the movie we had just watched.

The atmosphere was very harmonious, and my mood was much better than yesterday.

About half an hour later, I began to feel a little tired.

Noticing that I didn’t look well, Jerome immediately asked, “What’s the matter, honey?”

Seeing the worried look on his face, I replied with a smile, “Nothing.It’s just a side effect of the pregnancy.I’m a little

hungry and want to eat something.”

“I’ll buy you some food, honey.What do you want?”

Jerome asked with concern.

After thinking about it for a while, I decided I didn’t want Jerome to go too far, so I settled for something quick.

“A burger will be enough to fill my stomach, I think.”

“Okay, I’ll buy one for you right now,”Jerome said promptly.

“Skylar, stay here.Don’t leave this spot.I’ll be right back.”

I nodded and obediently waited for Jerome by the side of the street.

He ran off like a gust of wind.

Today was the weekend.

The street was bustling.

People came and went past me.

I stood in the crowd, waiting for Jerome to come back.

But minutes passed and there was no sign of him.

I glanced at my phone to check the time and found that it had been ten minutes.I was a little flustered.I couldn’t

help but walk in the direction he ran off to look for him.

Could something have happened to him? As I searched for him, a piece of news that I had seen on the TV

yesterday suddenly came to mind.

Apparently, a mysterious criminal gang had fled to Rube Island, and the police were looking for them here.

Oh, my God! Could Jerome have run into the criminal gang? I anxiously tucked a strand of hair behind my ear.

I knew it was ridiculous to worry about him, but I couldn’t help but fret about it.

After all, this was Rube Island.

Because there were no national boundaries, anyone could come and go freely.

It was inevitable that the residents on the island were diverse.

In addition to werewolves, vampires also frequented here.

Lost in thought, I suddenly felt my bag being pulled by someone.

I thought it was Jerome, so I turned around in pleasant surprise.

But instead of Jerome, I saw a burly man gripping my bag.

There was a malicious look in his eyes, and I immediately shrank back in fear.

“What do you want?”I shouted.

The man laughed.

“Nothing in particular.If you’re smart, you’d give me all your valuables.”

Looking around, I realized that I was surrounded.

In addition to the man grasping my bag in front of me, there were several other strong men walking towards me.

There were at least four of them.

Oh, my God! What were they planning to do? I was so scared that I almost fell down.

I bit my lips hard to calm myself down, holding my ground.

“Help! It’s a robbery!”

I tried my best to draw attention to myself, shouting at passers-by in the hopes that they would help me.

Sure enough, a couple of heads turned to see what was going on, but I was vastly disappointed.

They all stopped to watch the fun, but no one came to help me.

My heart sank to my stomach.

“Don’t expect anyone to f*****g save you, b***h.We have a powerful backer here.Just give us your money —quick!”

Another man grabbed my bag.

I didn’t dare to resist and let him take my bag away.I was very scared.

What was I supposed to do? I was pregnant.I had to protect my child at all costs.”Hey, she’s pregnant,”

someone shouted, noticing my round belly.

“I wonder who the father of the baby is.How about she pleasure us, too?”

The voice belonged to a man with a scar on his face.

He closed in on me and even had the audacity to try to touch my chest.

Oh, my God! These scumbags! D**n it! Despicable! I was so angry that I couldn’t stand it anymore.

I waved my hand at them.

A light flashed, and a strong wind suddenly blew, sending several of the men to the ground.

“F**k off!”

I shrieked, trembling all over.I could feel that my special power was acting crazy.

“F**k off!”

“What the f**k did you do that for?”

One of the men was more agile than the others and managed to withstand the wind.

Gritting my teeth, I started running regardless of anything.I needed to find Jerome.I didn’t want to deal with these

robbers anymore.

“Stop!”

The man’s voice sounded from behind me.

I was so angry that I almost turned around to use my special power to finish him off.

But before I could do that, a young man in suit and leather shoes suddenly broke through the crowd and stood

between me and the robber.

The young, well-dressed man said with a smile, “It’s not gentlemanly to attack a girl.”

After that, a flash of lightning flashed under the young man’s hand and shot at the burly man.

The latter immediately collapsed to the ground in a heap.

I was so stunned that I stopped in my tracks.

This young man also had special power too.

He must be a vampire! Oh, my God! Now that someone had come to save me, the rest of the robbers ditched my

bag and ran away as fast as they could.

I heaved a sigh of relief as I watched them flee.

“Thank you, sir.”

I quickly lowered my head to thank him.

After that, I picked up my bag from the ground and started to leave.

If he really was a vampire, he must’ve noticed that I had just used my special power.I didn’t want to have anything

to do with vampires.

Otherwise, I might be caught and taken away.I didn’t want to take the risk.

“You’re welcome.It’s what any decent person should’ve done.”

The young man smiled gracefully.

“May I know your name? I’m Thomas of the Gangrel Clan.” I looked at him in a daze.

What was he talking about? Was he actually introducing himself to me? But why? He must’ve really thought that I

was a vampire! I shook my head and stepped back in a hurry.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.Anyway, thank you for your help.Bye!”

After saying that, I turned to run.

“Oh, please don’t be like this, miss.I mean you no harm,”Thomas said hurriedly.

“I saw you use your special power just now.I just wanted to know which clan you come from.”
