Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: Anthony picked out a wine red dress with an open, crisscross design at the back.

The hemline was embroidered with large lilies in a lighter shade of wine red silk, adding a touch of awe to the dress without taking away from its elegance.

The dress was particularly light and airy.

It was cinched at the waist, outlining my curves.

Moreover, the silver-gray high- heeled shoes that Anthony had chosen for me earlier drew attention to my slender legs.

I tried to pull up the zip that was at the back of the dress, but it was hard for me to do it by myself.

I had to ask the sales assistant for help.

"Excuse me, can you help me zip up this dress?" I asked.

"Yes, miss," the sales assistant answered.

After a pause, I heard the sound of the door opening and closing.

"Let me help you,"

Anthony said in his magnetic voice.

I almost jumped in surprise when I heard his voice.

Before I could even take a look at his face, he pressed me against the wall and kissed me, swallowing the words at the tip of my tongue.  His tongue entered my mouth and tangled with my tongue, leaving me feeling out of breath.

I felt like all my senses were on fire.

His hands restlessly wandered around my body, from my swaying breasts to my navel, and then further downward.

"You're wet."

Anthony's low and hoarse voice brought me back to my senses, and I grabbed his hands to stop him.

He stared at me with blurred eyes.

His desire was clearly written on his face.

"I'm sorry, Jennifer.I forgot myself."

He leaned forward and bit my collarbone lightly.

Then, he wrapped his arms around me and finally zipped up my dress.

I was so light-headed that I could barely registered what was happening.
