Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

Anthony and I walked out of the meeting hall hand in hand.I turned to Anthony expectantly and asked, "Honey, is there anything else you have to do now?"

The truth was, I just really wanted to be with him.We hadn't spent much time together in ages.

Anthony was always so busy these days.I understood that the kingdom needed him, but I couldn't help but feel disappointed and frustrated.

Anthony looked at me with a knowing smile, as if he saw through what I was thinking.

He shook his head and said, "I have no other plans, now that the meeting's over.Let's do whatever you want to do today.I feel bad for ignoring you the past few days after all."

I shook Anthony's arm.

"You've been busy working.How could you say that you've been ignoring me? I've been mentally prepared for times like this since the day I became your queen.But anyway, since you're free right now, let's go out for a walk."

Anthony's expression softened.

"Okay, honey."

However, now that we were the kingdom's king and queen, Anthony and I couldn't just go anywhere we pleased, unlike before.

After careful thought, I decided to walk around the capital.

We couldn't go too far after all.

I pulled out my phone to study the map of the capital.

"Let's go shopping at this mall.I heard that there's a new maternal and infant store there that has a good reputation."

Anthony nodded and turned to his attendant.

"Go get a car ready.We are going to the shopping mall."

As soon as the attendant left, an unexpected guest suddenly approached us.

"Please allow me to sincerely express my gratitude to you."

Carl held one hand on his chest and bowed to Anthony.

"Mr.Jones, you're a good king.If you didn't decide to help the White Lily Pack, I really don't know what I would've done."

I was stunned.I thought that Carl had left the royal palace by now.

Glancing worriedly at Anthony, I feared he would get jealous again, even though Carl was here to thank him.

Fortunately, Anthony simply smiled.

"It's my responsibility to protect my people.You're welcome, Alpha Carl."

I, on the other hand, didn't say a word.I figured that keeping silent at this time was the best way to deal with the situation.
