Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved Chapter 267: Desperate Skylar

Daniel's POV:

I couldn't help but feel guilty for Skylar.

After all, she only used her special power to save my life.

Truth be told, I was shocked at first when I found out that she had the special power and that she might
carry the bloodline of a vampire.

But on second thought, I realized I had known Skylar for a long time.

She was a kind-hearted she-wolf.

There was no way she was a vampire spy.

Then, I found out that Anthony and Jennifer had known for a long time that Skylar had her special
power.They were even trying to cover it up for her.

Despite this, I figured they had their reasons.I knew from the bottom of my heart that Skylar wouldn't
hurt a fly.

She was kind, compassionate, and gentle.

Now that Jerome and Skylar were being forced to leave the werewolves' territory, I felt bad.

If Skylar hadn't revealed her special power to save me, she and Jerome wouldn't have been in this
situation in the first place.I felt incredibly sorry for Skylar.

She could become a beloved Luna, after all.

Moreover, who knew when we would see them again after they left? It was all just so depressing.



"Jerome, take Skylar back to the hotel and get some rest," Jennifer suggested.

"So many things have happened.I'm sure she's exhausted and overwhelmed.We need to think about
her baby."

"She can go back to the hotel, but we have to keep a close eye on her.Mr.Jones, please send more
guards to watch over her and don't let her act so freely," an elder said to Anthony.

"It's not that I want to make things difficult for Skylar, but the mere fact that she might be a vampire is a
huge threat in itself.None of us can rest easy unless she's kept under close watch."

"I understand." Anthony had no choice but to agree, given the circumstances.

"Come on, honey.Let's go.Don't worry.Everything's going to be fine," Jerome said to Skylar softly, and
they were about to leave.

"Wait!" Helen rushed forward and threw her arms around Skylar.

"Don't be afraid.We all believe in you."

"She's right. You'll always be our friend,"

I chimed in.

"Thank you, everyone."

Skylar smiled at us, tears welling up in her eyes.

"I'll never forget you."

After that, Skylar and Jerome left, escorted by Anthony's attendants.



Helen and I watched them leave, hand in hand.

"Has the problem been solved?"

Just then, my mother arrived.She looked at everyone expectantly.

"The hall's been cleaned already, and I've asked the staff to prepare some delicious food for us.Let's
have dinner."

However, her enthusiasm was met with silence.

The elders and Anthony all shook their heads, which I understood.So much had happened, it was only
natural no one was in the mood to eat anymore.

"Oh, I see.Thank you for attending Marlon's funeral.I'm sorry.It seems Daniel and I didn't entertain you
well."

My mother apologize.

"It's not your fault, Luna Betty.What happened today was outside everyone's control.Such being the
case, we'll go back now.Mr.Jones, Ms.Smith, please excuse us."

The elders bowed towards us respectfully, then left one by one.

"Mr.Jones, Jennifer, are you guys free? Let's retire in the living room.There's something I wanted to talk
to you two about."

When they were gone, I turned to Anthony and smiled slightly.

"I'll leave you to it."

My mother seemed to understand I wanted some privacy, and she smiled at me knowingly.



"There are some things I need to deal with, so I'll go now.Daniel, be a good host."

"In that case, I'll take a walk in the garden," Simon said, taking the hint.

Soon, Helen and I headed back to the living room with Anthony and Jennifer.

The four of us settled in and started to discuss.

Helen's POV: I followed Daniel into the living room and sank into the sofa.

Finally, I let out a sigh of relief.

I had been very anxious for Skylar.

Now that I knew she was going to be okay, I could finally rest easy.

"Daniel, did you know that Skylar had the special power?" I looked at him questioningly.

"No, I just found out."

Shaking his head, Daniel looked to Anthony and Jennifer.

"When did you and Jennifer find out about it? I figured you two already knew, since you've been helping
Skylar cover it up."

"I'm sorry, Daniel, Helen.We've known about Skylar's special power for a while now, and we've been
investigating it in secret."

Jennifer looked at Daniel and me with an apologetic smile.

"It's not that we don't trust you, but we really couldn't tell anyone about it.The more people who knew,
the more danger Skylar Would be in.So we decided not to tell anyone, not even you two.I'm really



sorry."

"Don't apologize, Jennifer.You did the right thing."

Daniel tried to make her feel better.

"Jennifer, when are you guys plan to go back to the Rainbow Pack with Skylar and Jerome?" I asked.

"We need to leave as soon as possible, given the urgency of the matter.We can't delay any longer."

Jennifer sighed heavily, pressing her fingers to her temple.

"I was planning to ask you and Mr.Jones to stay a few more days so that we could hang out.We
would've loved it if you attended Daniel's coronation ceremony."

I sighed alongside her, sad at the sudden turn of events.

"My coronation ceremony is not that important.Skylar's problem is our top priority."

Daniel smiled at me reassuringly.

"That's true, of course.I just can't help but feel sad."

I nodded and gave him a small smile.

But thinking about Skylar, I couldn't help but feel bad.

"Jennifer, how about we go to the hotel to see Skylar? She must be very sad."

"Good idea.Let's go!"

Jennifer immediately got on her feet.



Then, the four of us all went to the hotel to visit Skylar and Jerome.

"Skylar, are you there?"

Jennifer knocked on the door and raised her voice.

Soon, the door swung open, revealing a worried-looking Jerome.

"Oh, good, you're here.Skylar's not doing so well."

Jerome sighed heavily.

Jennifer and I rushed into the room to find Skylar sobbing on the bed.

"Oh, my Skylar, why are you crying?"

Seeing her like this, I felt incredibly sorry for her.

"Jennifer, Helen, I'm so scared!"

Skylar took our hands in hers.

"I don't Know where I came from.I'm so scared that I'll turn into a vampire one day.I really don't know
what the future holds for me.Will the problem be solved if Jerome takes me away? What if I become a
vampire in the future? Will I still be able to control myself? What if I end up hurting Jerome? Oh my
God, I'm so terrified..."

"Skylar, everything's going to be okay."

Jennifer gently touched Skylar's head, stroking her hand softly.



We completely understood where Skylar was coming from, but at the same time, I firmly believed that
she would always be our friend, no matter what.
