Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved Chapter 32: Passion In The Dungeon

Anthony's POV:

Jennifer's training during this period of time led to remarkable results.

Before, she had been barely able to keep up with me.

Now that we were in disguise, we both looked like any other vampire.

Of course, if the vampires decided to inspect us closely, they would find out we were not their fellows.

We moved swiftly in the darkness and made our way to the dungeon.

Jennifer never fell behind.

Even though we encountered several patrolling vampires along the way, they didn't discover our true
identities.

Jennifer's adaptability really surprised me.

Finally, we found the location of the dungeon.

Boris and Judy sat on the floor in one of the cells.

He comforted her as she was crying.

Our sudden appearance frightened them.

"What are you going to do to us, you wicked vampires?"

Judy demanded in horror as she shrank back with her arms crossed. I gestured for them to be quiet.

"We are here to save you," Jennifer said in a low voice as she walked to the iron door.



"Try to open this door, Jennifer,"

I whispered as I turned to watch the exit of the dungeon.

We exterminated the vampires who had been standing guard.

But if we delayed for too long and other vampires came to check, we would have difficulty leaving this
place.

"That shouldn't be a problem for me." Jennifer magically produced a set of keys.

"Before entering the dungeon, I knocked out one of the guards and found these attached to his
uniform.I don't know if one of these keys will open this door, though.We have to try."

"You never fail to surprise me." I nodded in approval and admiration.

Blinking at me, Jennifer crouched down in front of the iron door and tried unlocking it with all of the keys
she had.

Meanwhile, I kept an eye out for any vampires so that, if anything went wrong, we would be able to
make a quick retreat. After a short while, the iron door opened with a click.

"It worked!" Jennifer snapped her fingers in delight.

"Thank you for saving us. Truly, thank you so much." Tears streamed down Boris’ and Judy's cheeks.

"Mr.Jones, it's you!" Boris quickly bowed upon recognizing me.

"Thank you for coming to rescue us personally, Mr.Jones."

"Let's not waste any more time.We should leave now."



I gestured for him to stop being so formal with me and to stand.

Jennifer reached out to help Boris up.

But before she could guide the couple out of the cell, Boris trembled and his eyes became dull.

He took out a pistol from his belt, and I yelled, "Jennifer, look out!"

However, Boris was standing close to Jennifer.I wanted to stop him, but it was too late.For some
reason, Boris betrayed me.He pointed his gun at Jennifer's head.

Neither Jennifer nor I expected this to happen.

Jennifer wisely stood still.

With a pistol pointed at the back of her head, she knew better than to act rashly.

In the next second, a few well-dressed vampires entered the dungeon with their followers.They laughed
hysterically.

"Nice to meet you, Mr.Jones.I'm Sherman, the elder of the Wilson Clan."

The vampire who came in first introduced himself as he looked at me.

"Surprised how we knew that you were coming? Actually, Alpha Boris and Luna Judy have been under
our control all this time.You fell into our trap, Mr.Jones.If you want this girl to live, you will come with
us."

I was furious.Now I understood.The vampires had been aware of our presence all along because their
target wasn't Boris.It was me.

They used Boris so that they could get a hold of Jennifer and, in turn, make me yield.



If I went with them, I couldn't imagine what they would do.

But if I didn't go with them, what would happen to Jennifer? "Mr.Jones, you'd better think twice.

If you don't listen to us, Boris will simply pull the trigger.

And you will have no choice but to watch her die before your very eyes."

"No!" I shook my head and my hands curled into fists.

"Don't hurt her!"

As I looked at Jennifer, my heart sank.

I couldn't leave her alone because I loved her from the bottom of my heart.I couldn't allow her to get
hurt.I was determined to protect her, even if it meant risking my life.

"Mr.Jones, you should go." Although Jennifer was being held hostage, there was no fear in her eyes.

"You should leave.Please don't go with them." Her gaze looked pleadingly at me.

But how could I leave her behind?

"I'll go with you. Just let her go. If you dare to hurt her in the slightest, all the vampires of the Wilson
Clan will die with her!"

I yelled at Sherman.

"Come, Mr.Jones."

Sherman signaled for me to follow him.

I couldn't help but glance at Jennifer.



Her gaze was filled with despair.

I nodded at her, hoping to put her at ease.

Tears threatened to fall from Jennifer's eyes.

Sherman led me to a cell, and then he locked me and Jennifer inside.

Jennifer's POV: Anthony shocked me once again.

At the moment, I hated myself for being powerless and a burden to the prince.

But at the same time, I was also deeply touched that he was willing to put himself in danger for my
sake.

The evil vampires locked us up in the same cell.

Such a noble prince was willing to become a prisoner for my sake.

"Mr.Jones, why did you stay?" I demanded after the vampires left us.

"You should have gone ahead without any hesitation.I'm the reason why we got caught.They're not
going to let you go so easily."

"I couldn't leave you behind.I refuse to." Anthony looked me in the eye.

"Either we leave together, or we stay together."

"But I'm not worth it," I sobbed.

I had mixed feelings about this situation we were in.

I threw myself into his arms and hugged him tightly.



I buried my head in his chest and allowed my tears to fall.

"Mr.Jones, please promise me that you will be okay."

Anthony seemed stunned for a moment, but he eventually hugged me back.

"For your sake and my own, I promise.I'll be fine.Don't cry, Jennifer.You're stronger than this."

Even though his words were clearly meant to comfort me, they just made me sadder.

After everything we had been through together, I could no longer ignore this man before me.

I wanted to spend the rest of our days together through the good and the bad.I was even willing to give
up my life for him.

"It's my first time seeing you cry like this."

Anthony cupped my face in his hands and gently wiped away my tears.

His gaze told me that he felt sorry for me, so I hugged him once more.

I never wanted to let him go.

Suddenly, he bent over and kissed me.

His soft lips moved across my face, kissing away every drop of tear from my cheeks.His action was so
gentle that my heart trembled and my body gradually softened against his. My tears dried up.

After a moment's hesitation, he kissed me on the lips.I froze but didn't push him away.Instead, I kissed
him back.I allowed his tongue to enter my mouth.

At the same time, I nibbled on his lips and gasped for breath, unable to control my moans.



Anthony's eyes blazed with desire.

I was getting weak in the knees from his kiss, so I pressed my hands against his chest for support.

Without taking his mouth off of mine, he held my hand in his and gently guided it down to his trousers.

I found myself cupping his hard cock.

I was startled and instinctively wanted to pull away, but he encouraged me to touch his member.

After gathering my courage, I wrapped my fingers around his cock and tentatively stroked it.

Anthony didn't let go of me.

He slipped his hand into my underwear while the other rubbed my breasts and played with my sensitive
nipples.I moaned once more.

"Mr.Jones..."

I looked up at him in confusion.

My head felt light as if I was floating in the clouds.

"Do you feel comfortable?"

The prince seductively nipped my lower lip.

I nodded shyly.

In the cold and dark cell, we passionately kissed and embraced each other.

Even if our current surroundings were chilly, Anthony's embrace kept me warm.



Chapter 33: Escape

Austin's POV:

"Mr.Jones, I've come to ask for your instructions regarding a letter that I received today," an elder
politely called out from outside my room.

I was currently relaxing in the palace, resting my head on one hand while eating grapes that a maid
peeled for me. I couldn't help frowning in annoyance when the elder arrived because he was disturbing
my peace.

"Come in." I pushed the maid's hand away and signaled for her to leave.

The men standing guard heard my command and opened the door to the room.

At that moment, light shone in, forcing me to squint.

Damn it! I cursed under my breath, and the servants close to me knelt down in fear of my terrible mood.

"Get out!"

My roar was so powerful that those kneeling on the floor did not hesitate to leave.

They all disappeared from my sight in an instant.Their reaction put me in a better mood.The elder
entered the room and bowed before me.

"Greetings, Mr.Jones."I didn't even have to look up to know who it was.

It was Hyman.He was one of my younger brother's confidants.My younger brother was rarely in the
royal palace, but he still had some influence among the high officials.These people had formed cliques,
and some of them believed that Anthony should be king.



"Get up, Hyman."

I allowed the man to be more casual with me even though I did not want him to do so.

But in my heart, I wished that these old werewolves would disappear together with my annoying
younger brother.

If it weren't for the fact that they had a say in the royal family's decisions, I would have done something
so that they could no longer protect Anthony.

Although I couldn't do anything to these elders, Anthony was free game.

If he died, these elders would have no choice but to obediently crawl at my feet.

By then, I would be the only ruler of the kingdom.

Hyman obeyed my command and stood upright.

He was an old werewolf, but he was still as fit as a fiddle.

"What's the matter?"I asked him.

"Mr.Jones, we have received a letter from the vampires.Prince Anthony is currently in their
clutches.Based on the letter, they want to negotiate with you for his release."

"Hand it over to me,"I said reluctantly.

I opened the letter and saw that its content was the same as the one delivered by my guard this
morning.

I already knew that Anthony had gotten caught last night.



Those vampires wanted a part of the Osman Kingdom's territory in exchange for my dratted brother's
release.I Knew what they wanted, but I didn't want to give in to their condition.

I found it ridiculous that those brainless creatures would send such a letter to me.

Wasn't any land under my control more important than Anthony, spawn of that bitch? Stupid vampires,
stupid Anthony, stupid elders...Did they really think that I would exchange a piece of the Osman
Kingdom for a bastard like Anthony?

"Mr.Jones..."

Hyman looked at me, eagerly waiting for me to come to a decision.

But his hopeful gaze annoyed me.

What was so good about Anthony? He wasn't worth any part of my territory at all.

I was the king of this kingdom.One day, these old werewolves would regret siding with him.

"You may go, Hyman.I'll handle it."

A king's words could not be questioned.

After a moment's hesitation, Hyman replied, "Then I shall take my leave, Mr.Jones."

"Jason, come here." After Hyman left the room, I called for my confidant who had been standing in the
room.

He lowered his head so that I could mutter into his ear.

"Go and inform all the elders that they have to attend the next meeting.As it is about the cessation of
territory, make sure that every one of them will be present."



"Yes, sir."He started to leave the room, eager to carry out my orders.

"Wait!"I stopped him.

"Take your sweet time when you do this."This delay would solve two problems in one go.

The meeting would distract the elders, and the vampires would come to realize that I had no intention
of saving Anthony.

Wasn't Anthony very capable? Then I was going to take my time.

While pretending to work on a way to save Anthony, I sent a private message to the vampires to inform
them that I was never giving up any part of my land.

If they ended up killing Anthony in their rage, that would not be my fault.

As I wiped the pistol in my hand, I couldn't help smirking.

It would serve Anthony right for trying to compete with me all the time.

If he died, I planned on sending his mother after him so that he wouldn't be lonely in hell.

Jennifer's POV:

"Somebody, help! Mr.Jones’ old injury reopened, and he fainted!"

I stood by the door of our cell and yelled.

Anthony was lying on the floor as if he was in a coma.

The vampires who stood guard must have heard the anxiety in my voice because they came to check
on Anthony's condition.



One of the guards quickly unlocked the door to our cell.

They gathered around Anthony, but they couldn't figure out what was wrong with him.

"He needs to go to a hospital right now!"I cried out.

"He got shot in the arm just recently.I think there are still fragments of silver in his body.You all probably
know how silver is deadly for werewolves.If he doesn't get treated right away, he will be in mortal
danger!"

The guards looked at each other.

They clearly didn't want Anthony to die in the cell, but they didn't dare to take him out of the dungeon
without permission either.

"If you can't come to a decision, can you please ask any one of your elders to come? Hurry up!" I
demanded in a high-pitched voice.

The guards eventually brought Sherman to the cell.

Sherman crouched down and inspected Anthony's arm.

When he saw no open wounds, he frowned.

"He seems fine...Argh!"

Anthony suddenly sat up and grabbed Sherman by the neck.
