Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 261: Gave Up The Position 

Jerome's POV: 

I could see that Skylar's eyes were shut, but I knew that she wasn't asleep.She still kept tossing and turning, sighing from time to time.She had been suffering because of her special power.

I couldn't help but feel guilty whenever I saw her like this.

After all, she must've been scared out of her wits.She had to protect her baby and me.

If I wasn't the Alpha of my pack, we wouldn't have been in such a dilemma.I gradually began to regret my position of power.

Skylar had to keep her identity a secret so as to not implicate me.But she was more important to me than anything else—my reputation, my position, and even my life.

"Babe, still having a hard time falling asleep? How're you feeling? Is your heart still racing?" I wrapped my arms around Skylar, trying to comfort her with my soothing voice.

"I feel a little better now.My heart is not beating as fast as earlier." Skylar opened her eyes and looked up at me, blinking tiredly.

"Get some rest, love.You'll feel better after a good night's rest."

I bent over and planted a kiss on her forehead.

"I'll be right here, next to you.Don't worry."

"But Jerome, I'm scared." Skylar held my hand tightly.

Her fingers were cold, which made my heart ache.

"I know, honey.Your special power will be exposed sooner or later.It's only a matter of time.Let's leave the Rainbow Pack before then,"

I coaxed her, stroking her hair gently.

"Even if Jennifer doesn't take over the position of Alpha, I just know there's a_ suitable candidate out there.Our pack has a lot of promising talents.Plus, Mr.Jones will be there to guide them."

"Jerome, I just wanted to say that you shouldn't do so much for me!" Skylar pulled at my sleeve agitatedly.

"I feel like I'm dragging you down.You've given up so much for me.I don't deserve it."
