Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Caroline's POV: 

That morning, it was the pain that jolted me awake.

When I opened my eyes, I saw bruises all over my body, some of which had scabbed.

My body shook in fury.

Austin was a bastard! How dare he keep me prisoner and humiliate me like this? I had no choice but to swallow my anger and pride, and beg him to let me out.

In order to escape confinement, I had to seduce him and lie to him that I would cooperate with him.

I could take advantage of Austin to separate Anthony and Jennifer, but I would never really be loyal to a pervert like him.

But I remembered that he said he had something that he could hold against me, so I had to tread lightly for the time being.

Finally, I was released from the secret room that I was imprisoned in.

I heard that Elizabeth had woken up, so the first thing I did was rush to her room to see her.

There were many lycans stationed outside her room.

Most of them were guards that had been selected to protect her.

I knew that they were Anthony's private guards.

When I entered the room, I found Elizabeth taking her medicine.

She glanced up at me and then looked away before lying back down on the bed, as if I didn't exist.

"Mom, what's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable? Or did I make you angry again?" I asked anxiously.

She squinted her eyes at me, as if she was trying to see through me.

"Caroline, why would I get kidnapped in the fitting room that day? It's too much of a coincidence.Don't say that it had nothing to do with you.How can I trust you again?"

Damn it! It seemed that she had begun to suspect me.This was not a good sign.

If I lost Elizabeth's trust, it would be even more difficult for me to achieve my goals in the future.

"Mom, what are you talking about? How could I harm you?"

I asked, blinking my eyes innocently as if I felt wronged.
