Chapter 5

Isabella's POV

Since the incident where Ethan and I's engagement event was openly disrupted by Lucas who declared ridiculous news. Suddenly my mind became disorganized and I often thought about things I shouldn't think about. I often daydream to myself to think about Elara's whereabouts. It could be that Elara is not dead and she is still alive on this earth. It's possible that at any time Elara will appear in Lucas' life again. I think Elara is just a werewolf who has a lot of similarities to me. That doesn't mean I'm the reincarnation of Elara. It's really a strange and impossible thing to happen. Does reincarnation really exist? To answer all my questions and curiosity, I suddenly made a rather tough decision.

I decided to do a search regarding Elara's whereabouts, which I might be able to find in the present. I also started to be curious about Lucas' past, which I felt was quite important to him and made a big impression. I think that Elara is a woman who Lucas really loves. So that makes Lucas reluctant to lose it. He even tends not to accept Elara's departure from his life. So when he saw many similarities between me and Elara, he became very brutal and wanted to have me. Even willing to forcefully take me from his own brother.

"Isabella, what's wrong with you?"

"No, I was just daydreaming."

"Are you in trouble?"

"Certainly not." I left a trail in front of my own father. It feels useless if I have to tell him about this. I don't think there will be a solution from my father regarding this problem that is currently plaguing me.

I entered the room and started planning something. I don't know why suddenly strange thoughts and ideas appear. The choice to stay in the Shadow Fang Pack seemed to be the solution to my big question. Because I can't stand it if I have to continue to be haunted by this endless curiosity.

I haven't had time to do anything and I'm still standing with my back to my bedroom door, which I haven't closed at all. Suddenly I changed direction by turning around and returning to the beta.

"Hey, what's up?" My father asked, surprised to see my attitude.

"Dad, can I stay with the Shadow Fang Pack?"

"Huh what do you mean?"

"I want to gain a lot of experience there."

"Um…”

"Dad, as an omega of course I have to have a lot of experience, right?"

"Yeah sure, then?"

"I think that living with the Shadow Fang Pack will give me a lot of valuable experience to prepare me to become an omega, furthermore I can also use that experience to learn to be Luna accompanying the alpha in the future."

"Yes, I think it's a good intention. Learn a lot there and become a future Luna who can be Ethan Blackwood's companion!"

"Of course dad, okay, I'll immediately pack up and start going there tomorrow."

"Huh tomorrow?"

"Yes tomorrow."

"Hmm never mind, you can go tomorrow."

"Okay Dad, thank you for allowing me to stay there."

"Yes, take good care of yourself while you stay there!"

"Okay, Dad."

Even though my main reason for staying with the Shadow Fang Pack was not for that. But I want to find answers to all my questions since I heard Lucas say something that I have difficulty understanding at all until today. I'm leaving tomorrow to get to know Lucas better and find out about his past.

In fact, for some reason, I actually feel a strong connection with Lucas. I don't know what's wrong with Lucas and I. Will Lucas be an important person in my life in the future? But what about Ethan the Alpha? Will I be in two hearts? Hmm, impossible! I couldn't possibly do such a despicable thing. Besides, Lucas isn't my type and I'm not at all tempted by Lucas. But somehow my conscience forced my body to continue approaching him. I was even willing to look for his whereabouts to confirm Lucas' true story.

This morning I immediately left to arrive at the Shadow Fang Pack. Finally I arrived here. Feeling very enthusiastic about this, I was really enthusiastic about doing it and left early so that I arrived quickly without any obstacles on the way.

Now what I was looking for was in front of me. I faced Lucas. He looked at me with teary eyes as if he was very happy and sad. I couldn't have thought that I would have the courage to come here after the embarrassing incident that Lucas did to me during my engagement with Ethan.

"Elara... eh Isabella." Lucas stared at me, finding it hard to believe this was happening.

"Yes it's me Isabella."

"Are you here?"

"Yes I'm here."

"What is it?"

"I want to hear your story in more detail about Elara."

"Huh?"

"Yes of course, you're not dreaming. Are you willing to tell me everything? I want to hear it from you."

"Yes, of course, fine, I will tell you everything about my past."

Lucas dared to tell about his past, including about Elara, his lover who died centuries ago. He did not hide his story in the slightest and even openly told everything. I heard him very well and paid attention to all the words he said to me. I felt deJa vu when Lucas told me the sequence of events. Especially when in the seconds he saw Elara dying. I really felt like I was getting into what Lucas was telling me. Am I really Elara's reincarnation? Or does Lucas just have an energy that can anesthetize the situation as if I were being dragged into it? I felt like the main character in the story. Feeling that Elara is me with many of the similarities mentioned makes me a little doubtful about my current world as Isabella. Then I became very confused about my true identity. Not to mention hearing about the powerful power of love between Lucas and Elara in a century far from now. I even felt my heart suddenly pound and beat irregularly when Lucas said he really loved Elara. For some reason, I was the one who felt amazed and as if he was confessing his feelings to me.

"Isabella, what's wrong with you?"

"Hmm, no, I'm just absorbing your story. It turns out that the two of you really love each other."

"Yes, that's it, I really love Elara as deeply as my heart without anyone being able to replace her even though it's been centuries. But I still keep her at the bottom of my heart. Deep inside my heart I always care for my love for Elara."

"Then why do you think that I am the reincarnation of Elara? That means your view has been divided on me?"

"Um, not really, I don't know, it's just a big energy that is difficult for me to avoid."

"It means?"

I feel even more confused now.
