Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

I was deeply touched to see Jerome argue with all the elders on Skylar's behalf.I knew then that Skylar meant everything to my brother.

It was time to talk to the elders of the Rainbow Pack about our plan.

"Everyone, may I have a moment, please?"

I stood up and called the attention of the elders.

"I have discussed it with Anthony.In order to maintain stability within the pack, I am willing to take over the position of Alpha of Rainbow Pack.Please have faith in me.I will do my best to become an excellent Alpha to our pack."

The hall fell silent for a long time.

No one uttered even a single word.

"Miss Smith, I know that you are the daughter of Alpha Lewis and soon you will become the queen of the Osman Kingdom.Although it is not your lineage that concerns us, it's just that there has never been a female Alpha in our pack before."

Finally, Jacob opened his mouth.

His words sounded very polite and euphemistic, but his face was clearly full of disdain.

"That's right.Miss Smith, it's not that we doubt your ability...However, there is no such precedent in our pack.We can't make an exception in your case,"

Tony echoed, looking away in embarrassment.

I knew that Tony supported me, and his responsibility as an elder put him in a difficult place.

"We can't accept a she-wolf as our leader! If we make an exception now, the pack will be engulfed in chaos!" another elder added in a hostile tone.

"I beg to disagree," I replied with a smile.

"Since there has never been a female Alpha before, do you have any evidence to prove that a she-wolf can't be a good Alpha?"

Jacob was rendered speechless, but he immediately knelt down on the floor.

"Alpha Jerome, please reconsider your decision," Jacob said loudly.

With the exception of Tony, the other elders followed suit and knelt down before Jerome.

"Alpha Jerome, please give up Skylar and choose another Luna for the benefit of everyone! You have to think of the greater good!"

"You can't abandon us!"
