Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Devin's POV: 

I couldn't stop panicking after I got thrown into prison because of Mandy's confession.What was I going to do? I had become the prime suspect for the murder of my father.

Although it was true that I was behind the death of my father, this wasn't how I had expected things to turn out.

After all, I had planned everything down to the smallest detail.I wouldn't even be here if Mandy hadn't betrayed me.I should have known that she was too loose-lipped to be trusted.

Besides, why the hell was the prince here? Despite my curiosity, I surmised that now wasn't the best time to think about it.I had to find a way to get out of prison first.I wasn't going to die in such a filthy place.I gripped the prison bars and racked my brains for some profound idea that was going to help me.

Grace came to see me in the morning.

I told her to look for Adonis, the doctor who sold me the ephedrine hydrochloride.

If I could get him to testify that Mandy was the one who had bought the illicit drug from him, then perhaps my name would be cleared.

When Helen was put away in prison, I made Adonis a generous and lucrative offer he couldn't refuse, and in exchange, he was to identify Helen as the person who bought the illicit drug from him.

Little did I know that Mandy was going to betray me and foil all my plans.I had no choice but to hope that Adonis would do exactly as I had asked.

After all, I had given him a large sum of money to buy the illicit drug from him.

Damn it! I was so sure of my plans, especially since I had spent so much time plotting it.

Now because of the prince, everything was in disarray.

Since my back was against the wall, I had no choice but to put on an act so that everyone would think that I hadn't killed my father.I wailed as loud as I could, forcing out tears from my eyes.

"Let me out! I want to see my father! I have to see him before they bury him!" I wrapped my fingers around the bars tightly.

"I don't care what you think of me, I have to see my father one last time."

"Be quiet!"
