Karl’s POV

Having to deal with this kind of woman was something I couldn’t seem to see myself doing, but well, I have to, and for this reason, I can’t seem to abandon her here.

Asking her about where she is from and her not knowing could be so difficult for her not to know who her family members or friends are.

Even though she seems stubborn, I can’t help but feel a burning desire for her deep within me hence the reason why I have been trying my best to get close to her.

I wonder what kind of breed she is. Was she a werewolf, like me, most probably a luna of a pack, or maybe a vampire?

If she is a werewolf, maybe she would be the perfect match for me to do what I want for my pack, although I have left the pack for the time being.

The pack elders have been insisting since the last full moon I get married to a female I know nothing about, although I was told it was the same way my parents were mated. My father was born alpha, while my mother was from a renowned prestigious family, and that was the same thing that has been done for me.

I had just fallen in love with this woman whom I knew nothing about because she was cute, and maybe I would suggest a name for her for the time being since she didn’t have a name yet.

“Why don’t we find a name for you now, Miss, since you’ve lost your memory?” I asked her, and she turned and looked me deep into my eyes as if trying to study me.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” I asked, touching my face to see if something was wrong.

“Why don’t you choose the name, Alpha Karl?” she asked me, and how she said my name in her accent made me weak on the insides. It was somehow romantic, and I didn’t know if she was doing it on purpose or if she was doing it that way because of the way she talked.

“Earth to the Alpha,” she thwacked her fingers before my eyes, bringing me back from my reverie.

“Oh yeah, why don’t we name you Avery until you remember your name?” I said, and I saw a glint of a smile before she asked me, “Why Avery, Alpha Karl?” she asked me, and because I was seemingly drawn to her lips, I said it was because of her lips.

“You jerk,” she retorted, and the smile on her face slowly diminished into a visible frown. It was wonderful how she switched within seconds of a direct conversation.

I burst out laughing as hard as I could. They told me I was supposed to marry a woman I knew nothing about. It disturbed me, so I disappeared from the pack for a few days and found myself here.

My beta Mathias had tried on so many accounts to mind-link me, but I declined on all those occasions. I had blocked him because the moment he finally got to me through our mind link, I would be found in a jiffy, and the elders would have no hesitation and all the amenities to get to me.

“You have beautiful eyes, Avery,” I commented before I wanted to curb my tongue.

“Thank you,” she said, and it warmed my heart so much that she wanted to be kind instead of being a grumpy woman.

“One thing, Avery, please stop calling me Alpha Karl. I would appreciate it if you could call me just Karl. No need to be too formal with me. No one ever knows you might be my Luna, bunny,” I said in a joking manner, and she smiled as if she even knew the meaning of a Luna, but then she turned and asked me,

“Karl?” she called, and I responded nonchalantly. I was looking for something to eat for dinner, probably an animal I could use as beef for the night before we started thinking of what we would eat for the next day because she seemed to be some sort of foodie.

“Who is a Luna?” she asked, and to be honest, it didn’t startle me because I knew there was no way she could remember all that, for she had amnesia.

I tried to explain whatever Luna was, and she thanked me and turned to face the wall, deep in thought. I left her for that because she might remember something.

Third-Person POV

While back at the Beowulf Pack, there was a seemingly tough commotion as no one could tell of the Alpha’s destination.

“Mathias, try the mind link once again,” one of the elders reiterated to the beta, who seemed to have mind-linked the Alpha for the hundredth time.

“He has blocked me from the mind link, and if I persist, there will be serious repercussions,” Mathias replied.

“Since we can’t get him through the mind link, we shall find him in the forest. His scent can never be lost,” said the other elder.

“What if he used the wolf scent repellant on his body before leaving?” Mathias asked, all tired. No one in the pack had slept for the past three days because they were all searching for the Alpha.

Nelvin, from the corner of the room, suggested they start the search immediately, and the elders accepted, and the search for the Alpha had begun.
