Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

After dinner, Anthony personally arranged Austin and Caroline's accommodations.

When we dropped them off at their residence, Elizabeth, Anthony, and I stood by the door and said goodnight to Austin and Caroline.

"Austin, I will hold a meeting with the elders tomorrow to discuss your expedition.I plan to place the most elite troops under your command.You'll be sent to the border of the Red Sun Pack.They're the pack closest to the vampires’ territory, so they need support the most," Anthony told his brother before leaving.

"Thank you for giving me the chance to redeem myself.Anthony, I won't let you down.I will come back victorious," Austin vowed seriously.

"Thank you, Anthony.Thank you for giving us this opportunity."

Caroline also expressed her gratitude, her eyes red from crying.

As they were talking, Elizabeth took the sleeping Alice from a maid's arms and handed her to Caroline with a soft smile.

"Here.You take care of Alice.I think what she needs most now is maternal love."

Caroline looked into her daughter's eyes lovingly and kissed her on the forehead.

"Thank you so much, Mom.I'll take good care of her, I promise."

"I really don't know how to thank you, Anthony."

Austin scratched his head in embarrassment.

"You're my brother.Of course I'll help you when you need it,"

Anthony smiled gently and shook Austin's hand firmly.

"Thanks again.Good night!"

Austin mumbled hurriedly, his face turning red.Then he pulled Caroline and Alice into the room and closed the door.

Anthony frowned and scratched his head, not unlike the way Austin did just now.

"Did I say something wrong?" I shook my head and chuckled.

"No, I don't think so.Austin's just shy.Maybe he isn't used to the way you're treating him now."

"He'll get used to it one day," Elizabeth said with a knowing smile.

Then, Anthony and I escorted Elizabeth back to her room.
