Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Carl's POV: 

The mysterious wizard who called himself Larry disappeared into thin air, and I stared blankly at the notebook on the table, in a trance.

Such powerful magic could have only been exhibited by a grand wizard of legendary proportions.

I recalled hearing rumors about a grand wizard who infiltrated the royal palace, sneaked past all the guards, and attacked Anthony's mother, Elizabeth.

Could Larry really help me? No! What was I even thinking? I picked up the notebook and tore off the page with Larry's phone number written on it, crumpling it into a ball in my fist.

I didn't want to cooperate with a wizard, let alone achieve my goal by shameful means.However, when I walked to the trash can, I found myself hesitating.

What choice did I have? If I didn't cooperate with Larry, how could I be with Jennifer? She was the queen now! Although I knew that she was married to the king, I still couldn't stop myself from loving her.

Damn it!I threw the paper ball, not into the trash can, but on the table.I slumped down on the sofa with my hands wrapped around my head and I screamed in frustration.

"What should I do? Damn it!"

I found myself in a frenzy of desperation.I had feelings for Jennifer ever since I was a child, but I wasn't confident enough to act on those feelings because 1 had come from humble origins.I thought that I would be able to confess my love to her once I had achieved something notable.

Unfortunately, by the time I finally became Alpha, she became the queen.

As I recalled the events of the other day at the garden, I ridiculed myself for being such a fool.

'Carl, she's not interested in you at all"

There was no love in her eyes when she looked at me, but they were full of tender affection the moment she set them on Anthony.I couldn't lie to myself.

To Jennifer, I was probably no different than a stranger now, even though I had kept her in my heart every single day for many years.

Life could be very cruel sometimes.

How I wished she could reciprocate my feelings of love, even if it was only for a day! Suddenly, while I was lost in my thoughts, I heard whisperings in my ears.
