Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

We hung out with Andy until the sun went down.

Although he had grown comfortable with me, I still couldn't glean any useful information from him.

I didn't expect a three-year-old child would be so careful with what he talked about.

Linda must've told him not to say anything.

Nevertheless, I still firmly believed she was hiding something.

But what could be so damning that she had to hide it from everyone? When we got back to the Rainbow Pack, we took Andy to Linda's room.

"We're back, Linda! Andy's so cute.Anthony and I have both grown very fond of him.We had a great time."

I smiled and ruffled Andy's hair.

"It must've been hard for you to raise Andy alone, Linda.By the way, which pack did you live in?"

"We went to the Red Sun Pack first, where we found a doctor who helped cure my disease.Then, I took Andy to the Rainbow Pack and we've been wandering around here ever since."

Linda's tone was calm and her face betrayed nothing.

If Andy hadn't mentioned the Lavender Pack today, I would have believed what she said.

She was a good actress.

I needed to be wary of any tricks she might play.

Out loud, I said with a smile, "You're a good mother and you've raised Andy well.You're strong-willed, too.It's no wonder my brother fell for you in the past."

"Thank you, Jennifer.I'm sure I'm nowhere near as strong as you, though,"

Linda said, feigning modesty.

We chatted for a little while longer before bidding each other goodnight.

Anthony and I headed back to our room.

The second we closed the door behind us, I began to talk about Linda with Anthony.

"Anthony, Linda's lying.Andy mentioned that they used to live in the Lavender Pack, but Linda didn't mention it and said they had been staying in the Rainbow Pack for a while now."

I frowned and scratched my chin.

"Plus, I can tell that he's keeping a secret for Linda.No matter how I asked, Andy wouldn't mention anything about their past.I think Linda's hiding something."

"I agree.There is something fishy about Linda.Don't worry.I'll try to help.I'll send my attendants over to the Lavender Pack to investigate a she-wolf named Linda.And if Linda did live there, I'll have them find out everything they can about her stay there.But the Lavender Pack is far.The investigation may take some time."
