Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Amelia's POV: 

As Larry carefully placed the beautiful irises in my hair, a sweet, floral fragrance wafted to my nose.I couldn't help but feel touched by this small act of affection.

"I promised you that I'd cover our entire yard with irises, " Larry said, gazing at me lovingly.

"When we go back, I'll build us a big house and plant irises all around it."

The way he looked at me reminded me of the time we were young and in love.

Those memories were full of sweetness, but they were tainted the second he killed my child and imprisoned me for years.

How could I forget his horrific nature? He was the murderer of my child.I had gotten on my knees and begged him back then, but he just ignored me.

It didn't matter if he said he loved me now.

The things of the past could not be erased.

He killed my child.He didn't understand that what he took from me was not just a piece of flesh, but half of my life.

Larry could never understand this.His love was corrupt and selfish.I swallowed my hatred and somehow managed to force a smile.

"Thank you, Larry.That's so romantic of you."

But Larry must've seen past my expression.He suddenly grabbed my hand and asked, "Is something wrong, Amelia? You don't look so good."

I quickly lowered my head to hide my face from him.

"Oh, no.I'm fine."

"It's not fine, Amelia.Just tell me.What's wrong? Don't hide it from me!" Larry pressed me, sounding agitated.

Panicked, I scrambled to find an excuse.

"It's just...I keep remembering the time you locked me in that small, dark room.Larry, I'm scared.What if your kindness will vanish if I leave with you?"

Larry stopped in his tracks and threw his arms around me.

"It won't, honey! I promise it won't happen again!" I pretended to smile at him gently.

"Okay, I believe you.People change after all.I also can't help but remember how I loved you back then."

Larry's eyes lit up like fireworks.

"Are you serious? I knew it! I just knew it, Amelia.You still have room for me in your heart! Our past was wonderful and sweet, Amelia.Let's bring back the good old days."

Larry looked convinced.
