Outcast: The Alpha King’s Beloved

Chapter 334

Jerome’s POV: 

Looking into Skylar’s fearful yet determined eyes, I felt like someone smashed my heart into countless tiny pieces.

My Skylar! I couldn’t believe she was actually offering to face the vampire king herself.

“Skylar, I’m sorry but I can’t let you do that.It’s too dangerous!”

I threw my arms around her and hugged her tightly, as though I was scared she would somehow slip away from me right then and there.I couldn’t bear the thought of Skylar being taken away by Aldrich, the vampire king.

Without Skylar, living in this world would have no meaning.

“Jerome, I know you feel bad for me, but think about everyone else.The whole kingdom is innocent and I don’t want to stand by and watch as they suffer because of me.If my sacrifice can bring peace, then I’m willing to take my chances with Aldrich.”

Skylar forced a smile, despite the tears that were rolling down her cheeks.

“Jerome, I was brought up by werewolves after all.I don’t want to be selfish and betray them.”

It hurt too much to look at her so I shut my eyes tight.

“I know you’re right, Skylar, but I love you.I can’t bear to see you sacrifice yourself like this.”

Skylar stood on tiptoe and kissed me on the forehead gently.

“But Jerome, we should be willing to make sacrifices for those we love, shouldn’t we? You, Jennifer, Anthony, and our friends are the most important people in my life.I don’t want werewolves to suffer from the war, and I don’t want to give Jennifer a hard time either.”

Oh, my God! In this moment, it was as though Skylar was a goddess cursed to live on a mortal world.Her kindness was radiant, and I could tangibly feel it wash over me like a cleansing wave.

She was such a good person, and she made up her mind.

Did I have the heart to stop her out of my selfish love for her? And would she be happy if I stopped her? No, I Knew Skylar wouldn’t be happy.

“Skylar, you’re right.I respect your decision, but give me some time.I don’t think I can handle you leaving so soon.”

I took a deep breath and spoke with difficulty.

Skylar threw her arms around my neck and looked up at me with tears in her eyes.

“Jerome, thank you.You are the most considerate husband ever.”

I shook my head and took Skylar’s hand.

Together, we walked back to the bedroom.
