Outcast: The Alpha Kings Beloved Chapter 22 by Blue Tears. Ella’s POV:. When I saw Jennifer on Marge Island, I was really surprised. I didn’t expect that she was still alive and even participated in the special training. My father had sent a lot of werewolves to hunt Jennifer down when she escaped. Although they failed to bring back her dead body, they retrieved fragments of her clothes, so we all thought that she was dead. I always wanted Jennifer to die. When my father was still the pack’s Beta, I already wanted her dead. We were of aristocratic descent. Why should I be considered inferior to her? Was it only because she was the Alpha’s daughter? I had done my best to endure. Did she think I had to accept her charity just because she regarded me as a friend? I quickly became fed up with Jennifer’s hypocrisy and her arrogance. As long as she waved her hand, I had to cater to her whims and butter her up. She gave me clothes that she didn’t like and helped me solve trifling matters with her status as the Alpha’s daughter. She probably thought she was doing good deeds, but I hated her hypocrisy. I still remembered the day my father snatched the position of Alpha from Lewis Smith, Jennifer’s father. I had never been so happy until then. I replaced Jennifer as the Alpha’s daughter, and Jennifer supposedly died outside the pack’s territory. Damn it! I didn’t expect her to be alive and to appear before me. It was unbelievable. The fact that many werewolves had failed to kill her proved that Jennifer was one tenacious bitch. Her existence was a huge problem for the Rainbow Pack. If she returned for her revenge, we would be in trouble. I had to find a way to kill her. Since we failed to kill her last time, I was determined to finish her off properly. A few days later, the drillmaster announced that the first and second batches of trainees were going to explore the jungle together. My chance finally came. I dug out a deep pit and positioned many sharp sticks at the bottom. If a person fell into this trap, they would either die immediately or suffer a slow and painful death from blood loss. They would not be able to climb out of the pit. The whole time we were given to explore the jungle, I kept track of where Jennifer was. I pretended to be an injured p erson and called out for help, leading Jennifer to the trap. After she fell in, I wa ited for a long time, b ut she didn’t climb out. Unless Jennife r was a god, s he was doomed. Jenni fer’s POV:
I didn’t know how much tim e had passed, but it felt like a century had gone by. Through the fog in my brain, I heard someon e calling out my name. His voice sounded ver y familiar. I tried my best to open my eye s, and what seemed to be Prince Anthony’s face came into view. For the first time ever, his neutral expression had beco me one of panic and concern. Now that I was seeing him on my deathbed, did that mean that I was interested in him? Before I could come up with an answer fo r that, my eyes closed and I surrendered myself to the darkness. When I opened my eyes again, all I saw was white. My nose wrinkled from the pungent smell of disinfe ctant. Was I dead or alive? . “Jennife r, you’r e awake!” . Daniel’s surpr ised face appe ared before me. It turned o ut that I w as not dead. “Prin ce Ant hony…” . I murmured as I look ed around. I was in a hospi tal ward. Daniel was the on ly other person in the room with me. I was so sure tha t it was Anthony who had saved me. Where was he? Daniel failed to cat ch what I just said, and thought t hat I was not yet fully conscious. “I’m relieved to see you awake. It’s almost dawn. I have to go back to my dorm room now . I will come see you again after training,” . Daniel said as he put some flo wers in a vase by the window. I t was a bouquet of sunflowers. “Tha nk y ou. “You’re welcome. W hat are friends fo r?”Daniel replied. At that moment, the door to the ward slammed open. Mrs. Elizabeth J ones, in casual clothes, entered. She was fo llowed by two maids. “Why a re you here?” . I was so surprised th at I wanted to sit up , but I couldn’t move. I was flattered by Elizabeth’s arrival, but my relationship with Anthony was supposed to be secret, so I couldn’t reveal her identity
That would make things difficult. “Don’t get up on my account, Jen nifer. You might reopen your woun ds. ” Elizabeth rushed to my side. Anxiety was written al l over her face. She was very worried about me. Although I just did what Anthony had ask ed me to do so that he could fulfill her wish, I knew that she was a kind mother. Even though she was in poo r health, she had traveled a long way just to see me. I was grateful for her kindness. Danie l looked at Elizabeth in confusion. It was obvious that he didn’t know her. “This is my friend’s moth er,”I explained. Daniel s hook hands with Elizabeth. “It’s nice to meet y ou, ma‘am. Elizabeth looked at me questioningly so I told h er, “This is Daniel, a trainee who is participati ng in the special training. He is also my friend. “I se e. Elizabeth subtly scanned Daniel from head to toe. He was a little bothered by th e older woman’s reaction, but h e was polite enough not to ask. Elizabeth’s presenc e left a strange atm osphere in the ward. Before Daniel could slice some fruit for me, one of Elizabeth’s maids came over a nd snatched the knife and fruit from him. Elizabeth looked at me as she said, “Let them do it. She also asked someone to brin g several bunches of flowers u ntil the whole ward was filled. The sunflowers that Daniel brought me end ed up disappearing in the background from the sheer amount of flowers in the room. When the day’s training ended, Dani el came to visit me once more, brin ging some soup that he had prepared. But because Elizabeth had just ma de me eat a nutritious meal, I was too full to intake anything else. I spent a week in th e hospital. During that time, Elizabeth acted as a chaperone so I wo uldn’t be alone with Daniel. And if she needed to t ake a break, her maids would take care of me. But when my friend Skylar ca me to see me, Elizabeth didn ’t mind her presence at all. Elizabeth only seem ed to have her guar d up around Daniel. I could tell that she did n’t like him. Anyway, since I was being well tak en care of, I persuaded Daniel to g o back to the dorm and sleep there. If he couldn’t train the next da y due to lack of sleep, I would feel guilty and worry about him
