Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Dana's POV: 

I could feel the anger boiling up inside me as I set my eyes on Austin.After all, he was the one who slayed the former king.

Our brave and battle-wise king! Even in the face of danger, he would never cower in fear! Who would have thought that such a valiant ruler would eventually die at the hands of his own son? The former king was a fool to attach great importance to a man like Austin, who would do anything to attain power.

My hands itched to reach for his throat and strangle him in the name of our former king! 

"Dana, I know you're not happy because you wasn't awarded, but it's not too late yet.Perhaps, I can throw you a party to celebrate your safe return?"

Austin hid behind the guards and forced a smile.

How dare he make fun of me like that? Even before he took the throne, he was a spineless blow-hard who never made any contribution to the development of this kingdom.

"What the hell are you talking about? You're a shameless traitor! A sinner who betrayed the country! Stop pretending like you care about anything other than yourself! You make me sick!"

I charged at him, grunting as I couldn't contain my anger.

"Dana, calm down!"

Gary held my arm and stopped me.

"What did you just say to me?"

Austin's face flushed red in an instant.

His face contorted in anger as he pointed his finger at me.

"You should be mindful of how you speak to the king, unless you have a death wish.How dare you disrespect me?"

I scoffed and shook my head at him.

Taking the interest of the whole situation, I decided that it would be a waste of my time to continue arguing with him.

"He called our king a traitor..."

"I thought Dana died a long time ago.There must be something fishy going on in here."

The elders whispered to each other.

"Guards, arrest the both of them and put them in jail.I want to interrogate them myself!"

Austin's face turned livid.
