Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Jennifer's POV: 

When I heard that Helen and Daniel were going to get married in a matter of days, I was happy for them, but sad that Anthony and I wouldn't be able to attend.

Unfortunately, we needed to go to the snow mountain a journey that could take days, maybe even weeks.

"Anthony, Daniel and Helen are getting married next Tuesday," I told Anthony.

"It's a pity we probably won't make it to their wedding."

"Oh, wow.I'll be sure to ask my attendant to send them a wedding gift."

Anthony walked over and patted me on the shoulder.

"You are so thoughtful, Anthony."

Thankful, I slipped my hand into his and gave him a bright smile.

"Well, let's not stay up late.We're going to the snow mountain tomorrow, after all.We'll need all the energy we can get."

As he spoke, Anthony led me to lie in the bed.I nodded obediently, snuggling up against him.

But just as I was about to turn off the lights, my phone started to ring.

Glancing at the caller ID, I found that it was Skylar calling.

"Hey, honey.I heard from Jerome that you're leaving for the snow mountain tomorrow."

Skylar's voice was always so warm.

"Yes, we'll be leaving in the morning," I answered with a smile.

It was nice to hear Skylar's familiar, soft voice.

"How can I help, Jennifer? The snow mountain is treacherous.Please be careful, okay?" Skylar offered with concern.

My expression softened.Skylar's concern moved me.

"Thanks, Skylar.Don't worry, we'll be careful.Anthony and I packed some potion that will help us endure the biting cold.I'm sure we can handle whatever comes our way."

I tried my best to speak in a relaxed tone.

"We'll visit once we get back.Anthony's Love Curse will be removed by then."

"Okay, I look forward to it!" Skylar chuckled.

"By the way, Skylar, you are a Luna now, so all eyes will be on you.Never let anyone else find out about your special powers, or things might go wrong."

I, too, was worried about her, so I felt the need to warn her.

"Okay, I won't.It's getting late, so I won't take up any more of your time.Get some rest, okay? Good night, Jennifer!" Skylar said.

"Good night, Skylar."

Then, I hung up the phone.

"Anthony, Jennifer, open the door!"

Suddenly, Elizabeth's voice sounded from outside the door.
