Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Chapter 143: Linda's Seduction 

Linda's POV:

Jennifer's tests were tiring to deal with recently, so I took a warm bath with the intention of sleeping early.

After my bath, I received an unwanted message from Nick.

"How have you been doing recently? Remember when we had sex last time? I've never felt so good before.I want to do it with you again.Why don't we set a date and meet up?"

This sleazy werewolf was really disgusting.

How could he actually think that I wanted to be with him again? When I had sex with him, he turned out to be so perverted.

He thought that I liked having sex with him? Where did he get the confidence to assume that?

"No, we had a deal.We shouldn't see each other again because we might get caught."

I replied to Nick's message, hoping that he would stop harassing me.

But I was naive in believing that could happen.

Nick texted back immediately.

"Oh, I see how it is.When I treat you nicely, you don't appreciate it.Bitch, I'm going to fuck you.If you don't let me fuck you, I'll tell Jerome that the child is not his.Even if you come and beg me not to do that, I'm not going to be so kind."

I felt like I was on the verge of breaking down when Nick actually threatened me.

Why couldn't I get rid of this jerk? I really didn't want to have anything to do with Nick anymore because he was disgusting.

If Jerome ever learned about our connection, it wouldn't end well for me.

After weighing the pros and cons, I decided to accept Nick's request.

"I'm sorry.I was too hasty with my reply, but I don't think now is a good time for us to meet.I can spare some time to meet with you.When should we get together? Which hotel?"

I quickly apologized and set a date to meet with him.

"This Sunday at Hilton Hotel."

"Got it."

As soon as I sent the message, someone knocked on the door to my room.

"Linda, are you in? I have something to tell you,"

Jerome asked from the other side of the door.

When I heard Jerome's voice, I dropped my phone in surprise and it clattered on the floor.

Jerome must have heard the noise because he opened the door, picked up my phone, and handed it to me.

I quickly put my phone away and wondered if Jerome had seen my messages.I was doomed if he had.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" Jerome asked.

"I'm not really feeling well, but that's okay.I'm getting used to things." I dodged his gaze.

"You should see a doctor when you don't feel well.I came today to talk about matters between us," Jerome said.

"Have a seat."

While I calmed myself down, I prayed that Jerome had not seen my text exchange with Nick.

"Linda, since our reunion, I haven't asked how you have been all this time," Jerome said with a smile.

I had not expected him to ask me about my past, and I felt a little moved.

If only he knew how much I suffered these past few years.

I couldn't help but hug Jerome as I told him about the pains I went through.

Finally, here was someone who could take some of my emotional burden.

"I've missed you all this time, Jerome.To be honest, I have not been doing so well.Had I known any better, I would never have left you," I sobbed.

Jerome gently pushed me away and stiffly patted me on the shoulder.

"Why didn't you return earlier?"

"Because I hadn't been cured yet, I didn't want to be a burden to you.I wanted to come back to you after my recovery.But now, you have Skylar.I can no longer stand by your side."

"I didn't expect this to happen either.Maybe God is playing a trick on us.I'm sorry for what happened to you, but I can't give Skylar up.I hope you can let go of the past.Even if we get together back together, I won't be able to make you happy.I hope you can understand and find happiness with a new lover," Jerome replied persuasively.

I looked up at Jerome as if my world had just collapsed.

I had just thrown myself at him, and yet, he was trying to convince me to give up.

Did he really love that she-wolf named Skylar?

Jerome's POV:

I wanted to persuade Linda to give up on me and seek her own happiness, but I did not expect her to break down.

I was at a loss for a moment.

"Jerome, have you forgotten how happy we used to be? Have you forgotten that you asked me to marry you and that you promised to make me the happiest she-wolf in the world?"

Linda hiccupped as she sobbed.

"Of course not.You know what? After you left, I was depressed for a long time, but now, I am no longer in pain.You might find it tragic, but Skylar is the one I truly love.We can probably find a way to make things work among the three of us."

I sighed, hinting at my real intention.

"What do you mean? What are you going to do with me?"

Linda asked with tear-filled eyes.

"Skylar and I have already talked about this.We will take good care of Andy and bring him up for you.You will receive a large amount of money as compensation.It should be enough for you to start

over.If you run into any trouble, you can come to us any time, and we will do our best to help you.What do you think?"

I asked tentatively.

"I don't agree to this.I don't mind sharing you with Skylar.I don't even have to be your Luna.I just want to be with you because I still love you."

Linda's eyes shimmered with unshed tears as she spoke.

"Please consider letting me stay."

"Well, you can stay, but it won't be like it was in the past because I don't love you anymore.You trying to regain my affections will just hurt both you and Skylar.This is all I can offer you.Stop for a second and think about my offer."

I tried my best to persuade her in hopes that she would stop trying to form a love triangle.

Linda's POV:

How ridiculous! I did not even challenge Skylar for the position of Luna stooping so low and offering myself as a mistress and yet, Jerome had the audacity to reject me. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

All I wanted was to be by his side, but he still would not have me.

Didn't our shared past mean anything to him? My heart ached, and I broke down completely.

I hugged Jerome and started to kiss him like crazy.

He tried to push me away but I managed to cling to him.

"Linda, stop.We can't go back to how we were."

Jerome forcefully pushed me away.

"Do you remember the first time we kissed and made love? That was the happiest day of my life."

As I spoke, I took off my clothes, hoping to attract Jerome's attention with my figure.

I wanted to seduce him and go back to how we used to be.

An idea formed in my mind.

"You still remember it, don't you? How about I refresh your memory?"

I pushed Jerome down on the bed and approached him with a charming smile.

He looked at me with wide eyes.
