Anthony's POV: 

Jerome and Skylar went back to their suite.

Jennifer and I were also about to go to bed, too.

After a long and busy day, we were finally going to get some rest.A thin crescent moon hung in starlit skies.

Jennifer and I cuddled together in each other's arms and turned off the light.

"Honey, who do you think killed Alpha Marlon? Do you have any leads on the murderer?" Jennifer suddenly asked.

I couldn't see her face clearly in the dark, but I could feel the warmth of her breath on my neck.

"What do you think, Jennifer?" I responded with a question because I wanted to hear Jennifer's opinion.

"I have a strong feeling that Mandy wasn't lying about Devin.He certainly had the motive to kill Alpha Marlon, " Jennifer explained.

"When Mandy mentioned Devin's name, I carefully observed him and noticed that he looked very flustered as if he was guilty.Besides, Daniel also suspected Devin, which means that Mandy wasn't making a groundless accusation." I smiled in amusement.

Indeed, Jennifer lived up to my expectations.She was witty and as sharp as a tack.

"I'm glad to see that we share the same opinion on this matter.It is very likely that Devin is the culprit.In fact, he reminds me of Austin.But Austin is more conniving than he is."

"Anthony, I'm afraid that Devin won't admit to it.I think you need to be careful of him because you never know what a cornered animal can do to defend itself," Jennifer reminded me.

"Don't worry.I've already asked my men to keep a close eye on Devin.if he does anything unusual, I'm going to find out about it immediately," I whispered in Jennifer's ear.

"That's very wise of you, Anthony.I'm glad to hear that, " Jennifer praised me.

"By the way, honey, how are you feeling? Is the baby fine?" I reached out and gently caressed Jennifer's belly.

"I was so scared for you and the baby when Mandy attacked you.I don't think I could handle anything bad happening to you or the baby."

"Don't worry, Anthony.The doctor said I'm fine," Jennifer said in a reassuring way.

"I may be pregnant, but I'm still quite strong."

"I know, but I can't help worrying about you." I gently kissed Jennifer's forehead.

"Alright, get some sleep.Good night, Jennifer and our baby."

"Good night, Anthony," Jennifer replied in a low voice.

Then, we both drifted off to sleep together in each other's loving arms.

Early in the next morning, Jennifer and I were awakened by an unexpected knock on the door.

"Mr.Jones, this is an emergency!" someone shouted outside the door.

Jennifer and I sat up on the bed and looked at each other tacitly.

"I'll bet that this has something to do with Devin," Jennifer said.

I nodded knowingly and got out of bed to open the door.

The attendant stood at attention and gave me a salute.

"Mr.Jones, Devin's wife went to the prison to visit him this morning.They talked with each other for a while, but their voices were too low for us to hear what they were saying," the attendant reported to me.

"Good.Continue to keep an eye on Devin.Have someone follow Grace and see what she is up to.Contact me as soon as something new comes up," I ordered the attendant.

"Yes, Mr.Jones." The attendant courteously bowed his head and then left.

"Apparently, Devin's wife went to visit him in prison.I have a feeling they are plotting something," I said to Jennifer as I closed the door behind me.

"I wouldn't be surprised if they were cooking up something devious." Jennifer got out of bed and sat in front of the mirror, combing her long hair.

There was another unexpected knock on the door.

"Hey, Jennifer, are you awake yet?" Skylar knocked on the door again.

"Jerome made pancakes. Come and join us for breakfast, okay?"

Jennifer would never refuse Skylar's invitation.

After freshening up, I went with Jennifer to have breakfast with Jerome and Skylar.

When we arrived at the dining room, Skylar and Jerome were already waiting for us at the table, and Simon was also there.

After we finished eating a hearty breakfast, Daniel came with Helen.

I was deeply touched by the kindness of my friends.While we were talking, I received a call from my mother.

"Daniel, are you with Mr.Jones? I would like to invite your friends to Black Stone House for dinner," my mother said to me.

"No problem, Mom.I'll tell him right now."

After I hung up the phone, I looked at everyone and said, "My mother wants to invite you all to the Black Stone House for lunch."

Everyone accepted my mother's invitation happily and I took them to the Black Stone House soon after.

My mother had prepared a bountiful feast for our guests and many werewolves came with flowers to show their respect to Anthony and Jennifer.

"Mr.Jones will surely make a good king just like his father."

Jerome sighed with emotion when he saw that Anthony was loved by many werewolves.

"Yes."

I nodded in agreement.

Just after lunch, an attendant suddenly rushed into the hall.

"Mr.Jones! Luna Betty! Devin is making trouble in prison!" the attendant reported.

"What happened?" my mother frowned and asked the attendant.

"Half an hour ago, Devin demanded to be released from prison, so he could go to the church and guard Alpha Marlon's body.We didn't know what to do," the attendant explained.

"Mr.Jones, what should we do?" My mother turned to look at Anthony.

A frown of exasperation appeared on my face.What on earth did my brother want now? 

"I'm going to the prison to check on Devin right now," Anthony replied calmly.

Eventually, everyone followed Anthony to the prison.

My mother came along as well and I could tell by the pale expression on her face that her heart was heavy with sadness.

I was confused by Devin's actions.What did he seek to achieve by creating chaos?
