Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved Chapter 154: Skylar Left

Jerome's POV:

I slowly peeled my eyes open and woke to find myself in my room.

But to my surprise, when I turned my head, I saw Linda lying next to me, naked.

What the hell? Why on earth were we naked? Did I sleep with Linda last night? I sat bolt upright, eyes
wide with shock.

No, this wasn't possible.

I loved Skylar and my body was only ever drawn to her.

Was I actually drunk enough to mistake Linda for Skylar? If Skylar saw me and Linda in bed like this,
she would definitely break up with me.

I pressed my fingers against my temples and tried to recall the events of last night.

However, the last thing I could remember was drinking with Skylar and then being sent back to my
room.

I had no memory of Linda coming inside my room.

Linda was crying right now.

No matter how I tried to comfort her, it didn't work.

She kept sobbing over our past, which upset me.

If we really had sex last night, then I didn't know how I could possibly face Skylar.

Would she forgive me? No.



If I really had sex with Linda last night, then I had no right to ask for Skylar's forgiveness.

I was spiraling, so I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.

I needed to think.

How on earth did I get into this situation? Maybe things weren't as bad as I thought.

What if this was all part of Linda's scheme? I didn't really trust her these days.

Maybe she just wanted me to believe that we had sex to rope me into being responsible for her.

If that was the case, then I could figure out a way to maneuver out of this sticky situation.

But before I could interrogate Linda, the door suddenly opened.

Skylar stepped inside and our eyes met.

In that moment, I knew I was doomed.

Skylar's eyes were red and puffy from crying.

My heart broke.

I jumped out of bed and approached her, wanting to wipe away her tears.

But she shrank away from me.

I didn't blame her.

I couldn't even imagine how she must've felt, seeing me and Linda naked in bed.

How could I possibly explain such a scene to my beloved girl? Sadly, I found that I couldn't even speak.



If I couldn't explain it to myself, how much more to her? Such an incriminating scene was simply
unexplainable.

As I scrambled to find the words to explain, Linda suddenly grabbed Skylar's hand, tears welling up in
her eyes.

"We didn't mean to do it! We were just so drunk.Please don't blame Jerome.I don't want to ruin your
relationship.We just acted on impulse.Can you forgive us?"

As Linda spoke, I could see Skylar's face getting gloomier and gloomier.

Acted on impulse? How could she say that? She was implying we really had sex! I narrowed my eyes
at her.

She was just making things worse! I'd rather Linda just shut her mouth.

The more she talked, the worse the situation looked.

I wondered if she was doing this on purpose.

As expected, after Linda was done babbling, Skylar shook her head and smiled bitterly.

My heart dropped.

It looked like she was going to give up on me.

"Enough, Linda.Stop crying.I quit.You two can be together," Skylar said to Linda.

"No! I don't love Linda! I only love you, Skylar." I looked into her eyes pleadingly.

But Skylar glared at me and sneered.



"I wish you and Linda all the best.I hope you and your newfound family will be happy."

Her eyes were filled with determination.

She meant what she was saying.

I tried to stop her, but she shook me off as though she was disgusted by me.

"I don't want us to end like this, Skylar.You're the only one I love.Please, give me a chance to explain
everything!" I said desperately.

"No need" she said in a low, trembling voice.

"I've decided I don't want to get involved in your relationship.You three can live a happy life from now
on.Without me, things will be less complicated.Jerome, we're done."

Skylar looked at me as a tear fell from the corner of her eye.

Her eyes were lifeless, as though she was empty and hollow inside.

That was the look of complete and utter despair.

Without waiting for a response, Skylar turned around and ran out.

I tried to chase after her, but Linda stopped me.

"It's useless to talk to her now, she'll only get angrier.You'd better wait until she calms down," she said.

As much as I hated to admit it, she was right.

I needed to wait for Skylar to cool down.

But would she still take me back? I sighed helplessly.



‘‘God, what should I do?'’

In the end, I decided to try my luck and go after Skylar.I was really worried she would give up on me.

But this time around, someone else stopped me.

It Was Andy, who suddenly ran inside and latched onto my leg, tears streaming down his face.

"Dad, please don't abandon Mom.I want to be with you two forever."

He held me tightly with his little hands.

I wanted to push him away, but I didn't have the heart.

He was just a child after all.

I could do nothing but watch as Skylar got farther and farther away.I was in a Crisis.

Skylar's POV:

Before today, I couldn't make up my mind to leave Jerome, because I loved him too much.

I also thought that he loved me too.

Even though Linda showed up with their child, Jerome said he only loved me and that Linda wouldn't
get in between us.

I believed him.And I trusted him.

Only to find him lying in bed with Linda.

I felt my heart sink into my stomach.



I was wrong about him.

Jerome's love for me was not real.

Now I knew for a fact that I couldn't compete with his ex -girlfriend and their child.

After all, I had known him for only a short time.

Who was I to him? I went back to my room in a daze.

This time, I made up my mind to leave.

I realized that the relationship between Jerome and I could never go back to the past.

Our suffering was never going to end unless I left once and for all.

With me out of the picture, maybe the three of them would live happily together.

With a heavy sigh, I sat down and wrote a long letter to Jerome.

As I was writing, tears streamed down my cheeks and fell onto the paper.

When I was done, I left the letter on the desk.

Then, I packed my things and slipped out of the Rainbow House as quietly as possible.

I told no one that I was leaving, knowing full well that Jennifer and Jerome would stop me if they found
out.

One was my best friend, and the other was my mate.

If they asked me to stay, I was bound to hesitate.



This time, I had to make a prompt decision.

Thus, I left with my luggage.

As I was walking away, I turned to look back at the Rainbow House, reluctant to leave.

The world was so big, but there was nowhere I could go.

If I went back to Marge Island, I would be found soon enough.

I had no parents, but I was adopted by a werewolf in the Black Stone Pack when I was a child.

I figured this was the only place on earth for me right now.

That way, I could regroup and make further plans.I had to say goodbye to the past.

There was nowhere to go but up from here on out.

Now that I was on my own, I had to be strong and move on.I would never be defeated by difficulties.
