Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Caroline's POV: 

Elizabeth arrived at my residence early the next morning.

When I opened the door, I saw Elizabeth standing outside, accompanied by her maids who had faithfully served her for many years.

They carried bags of clothing and jewelry.

"You're awake.Good.You're meeting someone today so you need to dress nicely."

I recalled what Austin told me yesterday.

Was Elizabeth really looking for a mate for me? "Where are you taking me?"

I asked as I invited Elizabeth in, still hopeful about her intentions.

"There is a strapping lycan from the Thomas Clan who is your age.His qualities are quite good so I want you to meet him."

Was she really making me go on a blind date? Did she really want me to get married? I looked at the she-wolf who had brought me up, feeling like I no longer knew her.

It was as if she didn't love me anymore.

Elizabeth used to be a good mother and cared about me.

I still remembered the time when my parents passed away.

I had been very young and terrified, but Elizabeth had taken me in.

She had raised me as her own daughter, and I had barely experienced any hardship.

But the only man I had loved since I was a child was Anthony.

Why was she helping an outsider instead of me? I had sworn that whoever hindered me from getting into a relationship with Anthony was going to be my enemy.

Was I going to have to consider my mother as an enemy as well? She was giving me no choice but to deal with her myself.

I put on the clothes she brought, dressed up just as she asked, and followed her to a high-end restaurant.

My blind date was a lycan.
