Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 305: A Love-filled Lunch  

Anthony's POV: 

When I was finally finished working for the day, I checked my phone.

Jennifer had texted.

"Lunch and I are waiting for you! I made it with love.Love you!"

She had attached a photo to her message.

It showed a slice of bread with tomato paste slathered on it in the shape of a heart.

I chuckled.

Jennifer had made Junch for me.I tucked my phone away with a happy smile.I felt warm in my heart, knowing that my wife had taken the time to cook me a meal.I wasn't in the mood to do anything else for the rest of the day, so I instructed the guards to keep vigilant and then rushed to our home.

"Oh, honey, you're finally here.I missed you so much!"

As soon as I entered the dining room, Jennifer approached me and gave me a warm hug.I hugged her back and kissed her on the lips lovingly.

"I missed you too, babe."

As I spoke, I scooped her into my arms and carried her to the dining table, sitting down with her on my lap.

"What made you cook with your own hands? Don't you like the food that the chefs prepare? I can hire another group of chefs, if you like."

I looked at her, eyes filled with concern.

"No need, Anthony.The royal chefs are great and I love their food, but I just wanted to cook you a meal myself.Don't you want to eat my food?"

Jennifer tilted her head to the side and smiled.She looked so cute.

"Of course I do, honey.But I don't want you to tire yourself out.You're the queen, and you're pregnant.You don't have to bother yourself with such trivial things."

I took Jennifer's hands and stroked them.That was when I noticed that the back of her hand was a little red.I quickly held it up to my eyes so that I could have a closer look.

"What happened?"

"Nothing.I was scalded a little while I was frying the steak."

Jennifer shrugged off my grip and put her arms around my neck.

"Let's eat.The food's getting cold."

"No.Your hand is injured.You need to have it bandaged."

I took her scalded hand and frowned.I felt sorry for her.
