Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

Now that we had Adonis's testimony on video, Anthony and I headed back to our hotel room.

"Oh, my God! Devin is so good at acting.What a sly werewolf!" I said to Anthony as I whipped out my phone and copied the recording into the U disk.

"He almost had me.I was convinced he might not be the murderer after all."

"He's a threat to Daniel.We need to make sure we expose his crimes thoroughly so that Daniel will become the Alpha smoothly," Anthony said seriously.

"Anthony, what're you going to do?" I asked worriedly "We don't have to expose Devin's true colors right now.We can deliver the fatal blow when he is off- guard."

With a sly smile, Anthony rapped on the table with his knuckles.

"Just when he starts to relax, that's when we'll strike."

"Good idea, Anthony!" I clapped my hands with satisfaction.

"We can expose him at the funeral! That way, everyone will know what kind of a werewolf Devin is, and the late Alpha Marlon will have closure.Oh, this is good!"

"Exactly.I'll make arrangements in advance, lest he try to escape from his punishment."

Anthony strode over and sat next to me, slipping his arms around my waist lovingly.

"Many werewolves will attend the funeral.Everyone will be there when we reveal who the true murderer is.I can tell that Devin's a proud man.The look of disgust on everyone's face will be enough to destroy him."

"You're right." I chuckled, leaning on Anthony's shoulder.

"By the way, Jennifer, keep the evidence to yourself.Don't tell anyone else about it, lest anything unexpected happen," Anthony instructed me.

"Don't worry.I'm way ahead of you."

I winked at him and was about to say more, but all of a sudden, I felt sick and started to retch.

"What's wrong?" Anthony held me worriedly.

"It's probably just morning sickness.Skylar said it's normal for pregnant women." I sank into the sofa and closed my eyes.

A little while later, the dizziness faded.But now, I was faced with a new problem.

"I'm craving something sour...like a yogurt cake."

I didn't know why, but I felt as though I wouldn't be satiated until I had a yogurt cake.

"Okay, I'll make one right now."

Anthony got up and went to the kitchen to
