Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Anthony's POV: 

Before I left for today's anniversary ceremony, I made sure my mother's safety was secured.

I cherished my mother.

Of course I had to ensure her safety.

I had put my most trusted attendants in charge of her.

I couldn't leave with ease until everything was in place for my mother.

Previously, Arthur had sent an invitation to the royal family, inviting us to attend the celebration.

When I heard that the royal family had agreed to send several representatives, I actually found myself volunteering.

The truth was, I didn't find this ceremony important.

I could've sent other members to represent the royal family if I wanted.

But I didn't.

I didn't know why, but for some reason, my intuition told me to go.

However, now that someone attempted to poison my mother, I felt uneasy.

I decided I'd continue looking into it after the ceremony.

Such a matter was by no means trifle.

As for Caroline, I still didn't feel anything romantic towards her.

I had asked those around me if we were really a couple, and everyone had said yes.

But this only served to confuse me even more.

Today, I finally put my worries aside and went to the Rainbow Pack with Caroline to celebrate the anniversary ceremony.

The ceremony itself was quite lively.

The werewolves of Rainbow Pack were very welcoming and enthusiastic, and all of them bowed to us when we arrived.

"No need to be so formal.Today marks the 10th anniversary of Arthur's succession to Alpha.Just enjoy yourselves,"

I told them and waved my hand.

"Oh my God! Mr.Jones is so handsome! And Miss Wilson is so beautiful! They're a perfect match."

"I heard that they're not brother and sister by blood.So they can be together, right?"

"Maybe they have already been together."

I overheard several werewolves talking about us.

I couldn't help but frown at what they were saying.

Why did everyone except me think Caroline and I were a perfect match? In my eyes, she was just my sister.
