Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved

Jerome’s POV: 

I had thought that as long as I took Skylar to a place where no one knew us, we could hide her secret forever.

Little did I know that we would be exposed not long after we moved to Rube Island.

Of course, I never expected that we would meet Thomas, a noble vampire.

Would Skylar’s real identity be revealed? I looked at Thomas nervously, with every fiber of my being on high alert.I

couldn’t completely trust him.

Thomas had already seen the mark on Skylar’s wrist, so I was at a loss.

Should I knock him out and then flee Rube Island with Skylar? Although Thomas had promised not to tell anyone

about it, I couldn’t simply trust someone I had just met, not to mention that he was a vampire.

However, judging from our experience with him so far, Thomas was very friendly and had said many times that he

saw us as friends.

Moreover, he had saved Skylar’s life.I didn’t want to be hostile to him.

Caught between a rock and a hard place, I broke into a cold sweat.

“I swear I won’t tell anyone your secret,” Thomas reiterated, holding his hands up in the air.

“But Skylar, I really don’t understand why you don’t want others to know that you’re a descendant of the royal

family.The hexagram is a mark exclusive to the most noble of vampires.You should be proud of it!”

Skylar shrank behind me and desperately tugged on her sleeve to cover the accursed mark on her wrist.

“No, Thomas, you don’t understand.This mark is the worst thing to have happened to me.I wish it never it existed!

Thomas’s frown deepened.

“Skylar, didn’t you know? King Aldrich has lacked an heir for years.He has always been very worried about this.He is

afraid that the bloodline of the royal family will end here.That is why I was so shocked to find someone with the

hexagram mark out here.Skylar, if you go back and reveal your identity, the king is likely to pass the throne to you!”

“Wait, Thomas.”

I held up my hand for him to stop.

“I want to ask you a question.How much do you know about the Dracula Clan? Skylar and I know nothing about

vampires.”

Hearing this, Thomas nodded patiently and began to explain.

“Aldrich has been leading the Dracula Clan the past few years, but he has neither brothers nor children.At present,

for the Dracula Clan, the most important matter is to find an heir.”

As Thomas explained, I stared at him nervously, feeling my heart beat faster and faster.

So, Skylar was the heir of the Dracula Clan? Oh, my God! In shock and disbelief, I asked, “Does the vampire king

really have no heir?”

Thomas looked at me, then at Skylar.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up with excitement.

“Oh! They have one now! It’s Skylar! An old story comes to mind…It is said that King Aldrich and a she-wolf had a

daughter, but the royal family rejected the child of mixed blood, so the king had no choice but to send the baby girl

away as soon as she was born.We haven’t heard anything about what happened to the baby after that.But I think

he regrets his decision.After all, he ends up with no heir.”

As Thomas spoke, his eyes, which were on Skylar, grew wider and wider.

“Skylar, oh, my God! Could you be that mixed-blood baby?!”

Skylar’s POV: 

The more Thomas explained, the more complicated my feelings grew.

After so many years, now I finally knew who I truly was.

No wonder my parents abandoned me.No wonder I carried the characteristics of werewolves and the special power

of vampires.

All my previous speculations had been put to rest.It turned out that I was really the child of a she-wolf and a

vampire.

“Skylar, please don’t be scared.I don’t hate werewolves.I really don’t mean you any harm!”

It was as though Thomas had read my mind.

He was still holding his hands up, and he took a few cautious steps back.

“In fact, I’ve heard from my family that the king has been telling those around him that he misses his daughter very

much and hopes to see her again in his life.”

Hearing this, I couldn’t help but burst into tears.

He was my father.

I had never seen my father.

And he missed me.

Only God knew how much I wished I could have met my parents, especially when I had no one to rely on.

At the thought of the word “father,” I cried so hard that all my defenses crumbled.

Finally, I raised my head and asked in between s**s, “Thomas, what about my mother? Where is she now? Have

you ever met her?”

However, to my disappointment, Thomas shook his head.

“I’m sorry, Skylar.Your mother is a she-wolf after all.I know nothing about her nor have I seen her.”

Although I was disappointed, I couldn’t say I was surprised at his answer.

“Is it really possible that I’m the daughter the king abandoned? That means I’m not an orphan.I have parents! And,

Jerome, my father is looking for me!”

I was too excited to speak coherently.

Jerome threw his arms around me in a tight hug.

“I know, Skylar.It turns out you aren’t an orphan and your father misses you.”

Thomas looked at us with a big, hopeful smile on his face.

“Skylar, can you tell me what you know?”

Now that things had come to this point, there was no need for me to hide anything from him anymore.I pulled up

my sleeve to reveal the hexagram mark on my wrist.

“It’s true.I carry the bloodline of werewolves.In fact, I was adopted and raised by werewolves.I have the keen sense

of smell of werewolves and can transform into a wolf.No one doubted my bloodline, and even I myself firmly

believed that I was a she-wolf.But a few months ago, I suddenly awakened my special power, and then this

hexagram mark appeared on my wrist out of the blue!”

As I explained, I was choked with s**s.Jerome gently tucked my hair behind my ear and comforted me.

Then, to Thomas, he explained, “After the werewolves found out about Skylar’s special power, they refused to

accept her.They firmly believed that she was a spy sent by the vampires.We had no choice but to leave, and we

ended up here on Rube Island, hoping to avoid any more trouble.”

Thomas’ eyes flashed and he took my hand.

“Skylar, would you like to come back with me to see King Aldrich? If you are really his daughter, then you’re our

princess and everyone will support you! I am more than willing to help you and your father meet again.”

I knew he meant well, but I shook my head adamantly.

“Thomas, thank you for the offer, but I don’t want to come with you.King Aldrich chose to abandon me back then,

so why would he want me back now? Although I would have loved the idea of meeting my biological father very

much, once I go to him, I probably can’t be with Jerome anymore.”

As I spoke, I threw myself into Jerome’s arms, tears streaming down my cheeks.

“I like my life with Jerome now.I just don’t want to be disturbed by anyone or anything else.The most important

thing now is that I know my origin.But I don’t want to get involved in their war.I just want to live a peaceful life with

Jerome and our baby on Rube Island…”

After saying that, I buried my face in Jerome’s arms and hugged him tightly, unwilling to let go.

“Don’t cry, honey.Thomas is a good man.He won’t force you.”

Jerome comforted me, whispering into my hair and wiping away my tears.I knew Thomas wouldn’t betray me, but I

still couldn’t stop crying.Oh, my God! I couldn’t believe I was the f daughter of the vampire king.This position was

too extraordinary.

Even if Thomas kept it a secret, I doubted we could live a quiet life on Rube Island.Was it possible my father would

come here for me?
