Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

Seeing everyone fight fiercely against Larry, my heart leapt to my throat.I wanted so desperately to join in the fight and help my friends, but I couldn't take the risk.I wasn't so worried about myself, but the safety of my child was of utmost priority.

For the sake of my child, I could do nothing but hide behind a wall of guards and watch the fight from afar.

Fortunately, my mate was very strong and cunning.

When he saw an opportunity, he seized it and attacked Larry.

Anthony successfully subdued the relentless Larry.

Seeing Anthony's foot firmly pressing down on Larry's chest, I breathed a sigh of relief.I approached Anthony, albeit still surrounded by my protective guards.

"How is everyone?" I asked as soon as I was within earshot, looking both Amelia and Morgan up and down carefully.

"We're fine.Cynthia's slightly injured, but Roy has already taken her away to treat her injuries.The other wizards were also injured, but fortunately, it's nothing serious.They've all left to treat their wounds," Amelia reported.

Hearing this, I nodded.Then I turned to Anthony, who was standing nearby with Larry under his heel.

"Anthony, are you okay?"

At the sound of my voice, Anthony turned around and smiled at me.

"Don't worry, honey.I'm fine.But Larry injured some of my guards.I've already sent them to the infirmary."

I wiped my brow with relief and glanced down at Larry, who was lying on the ground in a pool of blood.

His face was bloodied as well, and he looked extremely disheveled.

It was just as Amelia had said: he was an ordinary person without his wand.

Seeing him like this both startled and relieved me.

The once arrogant grand wizard had just been defeated by Anthony.

Evil could never win over justice.

After all, God was on our side.

"Just give it up, Larry.Anthony is right.Hand over the antidote and we'll consider sparing your life," I said seriously.

"Are you really willing to die so easily?"

"Shut up, you worthless bitch!" Larry glared at me.

"Cut the bullshit.I know you manipulated Amelia to lie to me.Why the hell should I trust you? I won't give you the antidote even if it means I'll die.Give up!"

I had already expected such a response.I could easily shrug off his cruel words, but the fact that he still refused to cooperate with us stressed me out.
