Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Amelia's POV: 

My greatest fear had been realized.

Larry showed up.He must've wanted to take me back.I should've known! He probably started searching for me like a madman the second he found out I was no longer imprisoned in his log cabin.

Larry was a possessive man, after all.

He would rather destroy what he couldn't have than let others have it.

I broke into a cold sweat.

Oh, my God! What should I do? Larry's power was unmatched.

He must've found out that I was rescued by Anthony, which was why he came all the way here, to the royal palace.

And now, he knew where I was.

Maybe he was even watching me in secret! I glanced at Elizabeth guiltily.

Larry had hurt her to as a warning to us all that he would stop at nothing to get to me.

He was bound to show up again.

Maybe he would try to get even with me, torturing me and abusing me all over again.

I almost fainted at the thought.How terrible those days were!

 "I'm sorry, everyone.This is all my fault.I'm the reason why Larry's acting up again, and he even hurt Mrs.Jones."

I burst into tears.

"But I don't want to go back to him, especially not after having found Morgan.I can't stand the thought of being imprisoned by Larry again!"

"Don't apologize, Amelia.You and Morgan both saved my Anthony.We won't just sit by and watch!"

Elizabeth held my hand lovingly.

"That's right, Amelia! Without you, we never would've even known how to break the Love Curse! Don't worry.We will protect you at all costs!"

Jennifer echoed passionately.

"We help those who have helped us.You saved me, it's only right that I do my best to protect you.Amelia, I will have more guards patrol the royal palace from now on.In addition, I will send a few of my attendants to protect you, so that it will be difficult for Larry to get close," Anthony promised.

Hearing them support me one by one, my tears of fear turned into tears of joy.

"Oh, my God! Thank you, thank you!"

Morgan took my hand and gave it a squeeze.
