Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Anthony's POV: 

Jerome and Skylar went back to their suite.

Jennifer and I were also about to go to bed, too.

After a long and busy day, we were finally going to get some rest.A thin crescent moon hung in starlit skies.

Jennifer and I cuddled together in each other's arms and turned off the light.

"Honey, who do you think killed Alpha Marlon? Do you have any leads on the murderer?" Jennifer suddenly asked.

I couldn't see her face clearly in the dark, but I could feel the warmth of her breath on my neck.

"What do you think, Jennifer?" I responded with a question because I wanted to hear Jennifer's opinion.

"I have a strong feeling that Mandy wasn't lying about Devin.He certainly had the motive to kill Alpha Marlon, " Jennifer explained.

"When Mandy mentioned Devin's name, I carefully observed him and noticed that he looked very flustered as if he was guilty.Besides, Daniel also suspected Devin, which means that Mandy wasn't making a groundless accusation." I smiled in amusement.

Indeed, Jennifer lived up to my expectations.She was witty and as sharp as a tack.

"I'm glad to see that we share the same opinion on this matter.It is very likely that Devin is the culprit.In fact, he reminds me of Austin.But Austin is more conniving than he is."

"Anthony, I'm afraid that Devin won't admit to it.I think you need to be careful of him because you never know what a cornered animal can do to defend itself," Jennifer reminded me.

"Don't worry.I've already asked my men to keep a close eye on Devin.if he does anything unusual, I'm going to find out about it immediately," I whispered in Jennifer's ear.

"That's very wise of you, Anthony.I'm glad to hear that, " Jennifer praised me.

"By the way, honey, how are you feeling? Is the baby fine?" I reached out and gently caressed Jennifer's belly.

"I was so scared for you and the baby when Mandy attacked you.I don't think I could handle anything bad happening to you or the baby."

"Don't worry, Anthony.The doctor said I'm fine," Jennifer said in a reassuring way.

"I may be pregnant, but I'm still quite strong."

"I know, but I can't help worrying about you." I gently kissed Jennifer's forehead.

"Alright, get some sleep.Good night, Jennifer and our baby."
