Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Caroline's POV: 

When I woke up, I found myself in Austin's bed.I pressed my fingers against my aching temple.

When did I fall asleep? But at the thought of what had happened the night before, I couldn't help but turn red as a tomato.

How on earth did Austin come up with such a crazy way to make love? Although it was unorthodox, it was fucking cool.

However, I reminded myself that Austin was only suitable as a sex partner and nothing more.

Anthony was my love.

Speaking of Anthony, I needed to return to Larry's log cabin as soon as possible.

If Anthony woke up and I wasn't there, my plan would be ruined.My sore body struggled to get out of bed.I picked up my clothes on the floor with shaking hands and slipped them on.

Damn it! Austin was not gentle with me all.He ravaged me last night like a hungry wolf.In order to keep my plan under wraps, I drove to the forest alone.

Larry was expecting me and told me that Anthony was still asleep.

I entered the log cabin and saw Anthony sleeping peacefully.

"How did it go?" I asked Larry in a low voice.

"I used magic to temporarily seal off some of his memories and sense of smell.He won't remember anything related to his mate once he wakes up."

"Why temporarily? Are you saying it's possible he'll regain his memories?" I frowned deeply.

"Don't worry.He won't remember those things, not without my help." Larry seemed to be immensely displeased with my doubt.

Questioning a wizard's magic was no compliment, after all. I tried to think of a way to comfort him.

"You're doing me a huge favor.I won't forget this.As long as I get what I want, you'll get what you want."

Sure enough, his expression softened a little.
