The next morning, Beck was gone, Alexia tries to look for him but he is nowhere to be found.
Handsome!!! She called as she couldn't find him. Where could he be? Hope nothing happened to him. Did that tiger return? She had many questions but no one to answer them. I am sure, he is fine, maybe, he left to look for something for us, just maybe, he doesn't want to disturb me. I should be calm, if he found me crying again, he is going to tease me non-stop. Alexia try to calm herself, she need to calm herself, if not, she might break down and Beck will tease her non-stop, she want to stay strong, and she want to act like is perfect, she try to roast the meat so that, Beck could have something to eat when he returns.

Meanwhile back at the headquarters, Beck's grandfather who is the field Marshall, is busy sending out a signal from the control room, he remembers that his bracelet had a tracker, so try using his to track them.
Still no signal Jesse? Field Marshall asked, and Jesse shakes his head, he look at the hacker that was trying to track Beck's bracelet, there is a possibility that the tracker may no longer be functioning but field Marshall just wants to try, he only wants his grandson back, he wants to break down even though he is a soldier, but family is family, everyone have a weak spot when it comes to family, he sees reason while doctors don't operate on their relatives.
The previous day, they found two dead bodies in the sea, he is hoping that his grandson isn't among them, he might not be able to hold on anymore, if it's confirmed that, one of the bodies is Beck. He is waiting for the autopsy results of the men found near one of the islands.
He run his hand over his face trying to calm himself, he wish that his grandson show up and in one faith, his thoughts were interrupted when one of the lieutenants arrived, and he greeted him. "Sir"
He raised his head to acknowledge him, and the lieutenant spoke. It's been confirmed sir that the bodies found, it's that of Zach, the pirate, and his... The rest of his words fall on the deaf ear, he is too excited to give attention to anything else, the probability that his Beck is safe, is high and he is sure, his Beck will returned to him in one peace.
You should inform all the necessary parties and also the search team should move faster. He instructed the lieutenant with a firm voice, he try not to make them see his exciting voice. He nodded then left, Field Marshall, grabbed the glass of water beside him and gulped the entire content. Thank Goodness... He let out another sigh of relief, he is glad that it was not Beck, those men must have died as a result of his grandson's attack, he is sure, his grandson is an expert, a good soldier at that. His phone rang, and he was about to take it, it was from Prime minister Ethan when Lieutenant Mark rushed in, he is panting, and he look at him.
Sir another body was found to be specific, a female body. His blood almost left his body, he was happy that his grandson is saved and he would have be happy that the body that was found is that of a woman but he can't, the prime minister's daughter needed to be safe as well. Go on!!! He said
Oh, the thing is, the investigation has not confirmed who the dead body belongs to but it seems that the countryside where it's found, have no information about any of their citizen missing but they are still trying to investigate this.
Go on and investigate it as well, and assist them to get the information, we need to identify the body ASAP. He orders but his voice are more deadly, he doesn't want the girl to die, since he heard that conversation between Jesse and May, he had wished that the two be together and the possibility of his grandson falling for her, is one thing he keeps wishing for. For weeks, he had watched romantic movies that carry the scene of the female lead and the Male lead stranded on an island and falling in love. Please let it not be her, it can't be my daughter-in-law. He murmured
Daughter-in-law!!! Sara; his wife asked.
Oh, it's nothing, just some stupid thought.
Okay, so how is the search going?
It's a good thing that none of the bodies are Beck. He said.
And the girl? Sara asked; he look at her, should he tell her the situation at hand, or just waited till the investigation came through, after must hesitation, he tap her shoulder.
Let's just keep our fingers crossed, let's hope they are together.

At the prime Minister's mansion, the television news had distracted them, they were having dinner together, Xander and his father including Jessica were there and Maxwell and his sister Leah, the cousin of Alexia were there, he had missed the wedding and had hoped to apologize to his favorite cousin but the man had met the shock of his life.
His cousin is missing, the reporter faced the camera and delivered the news about the notorious pirate master's death straightforward and without emotions and he crown it up with the missing General Beck Zul, the field Marshall's grandson and the prime minister's daughter Alexia Ethan and those encouraging words of Field Marshall Zul and given details of how do will do everything to get their son and daughter back...
Oh, the man is brave, he is a soldier. Ethan said, he that is not appearing in front of the camera, could almost break down every time, he realized that his daughter is nowhere to be found.
Yes, uncle, he is brave. Maxwell said.
I can't believe that the General is that handsome. Gosh, I heard about him but I never got to see his handsome face. Leah said as he drooled on the man on the screen, Maxwell pushed her head.
Can you stop being dramatic, instead of worrying about the general look, you should be worried about Alexia, if she is saved, right now she needs our prayer and support. Maxwell said
Sorry, uncle and Aunty, I was just...
It's fine, I know you are worried about her. Ethan said.
You see, uncle understands, I bet the General is not married, if I were Alexia, I would kiss...
Kaff kaff!!!
Leah's words made Xander choke, and Jessica look at Xander that his father, Fred is stretching water to.
Sorry, son!!! Fred said and look at Leah.
Leah, you should be careful with your jokes, did you realize your cousin was supposed to be married before the Incident and Xander here is the groom, so you should be kind enough with your words? Ethan scold her.
I am sorry. Leah said sincerely, Jessica is watching all of them silently, and as they had their meal in silence, she wish that Alexia found love in Beck, like everyone kept saying.

Meanwhile, Beck was gone the entire day, Alexia was restless, she was worried for him, he is nowhere to be found, she grabbed the wood that has fire and was going to look for Beck.
Where are you going? That was Beck's voice, she run to him and hugged him.
What happened? You are gone the entire day, didn't you think I was worried? Where thou hell have you been? Can't you talk? Alexia yelled at him, but he didn't say anything and just move to the shelter. You don't want to talk...
Stop!!! Stop acting like I am your child and you don't have any right to question my whereabouts and also; I am not answering to you.
Fine, now I know. Alexia picks herself up and also goes back to the shelter, she sleeps facing the other side while Beck sleeps facing the other side.
