Chapter 17
Ethan's POV
This morning I almost forgot to have a meeting with my pack. Because I was too busy with my wife Isabella, I almost forgot about my business at Storm Ridge Pack. I started to realize and immediately said goodbye to my wife to continue getting ready to leave right now. However, my wife also had business at her pack, namely Crystal Lake Pack, which she almost forgot about. She said goodbye to me to go to her friend Lila's house.
After finishing getting ready, I immediately left first without waiting for Isabella to finish getting ready. Because women take too long to wait for after they finish taking a shower. I better go first because I'm worried that my pack members are waiting for me there. Sure enough, they were already waiting for my arrival, which this time was not earlier than my members.
"It's rare for Alpha, you're almost late."
"Yes, I'm sorry." Without explaining the reason why I was late here.
I immediately opened the forum that we had agreed on with the discussion topic that we had previously scheduled. We only focused on our business at the pack and I forgot about my personal business for a moment. I also opened the forum very neatly without missing anything, we discussed everything. Until I started to close it.
After that, I remembered my wife, Isabella, again. I thought I had to pick her up at Lila's house. I was worried she would be angry with me because I left earlier. Women usually get angry easily and are very sensitive. So this time I wanted to make up for it by picking her up to go home together. Hopefully, I'm not late to pick up Isabella. I hope she hasn't come home yet and is still at Lila's house so we can go home together.
I immediately said goodbye to the remaining pack members after the forum was over. I immediately left for Lila's house to catch up with Isabella there. I sped up the journey so I could get there quickly. Until I arrived at Lila's house. I immediately knocked on the door. But I saw and noticed that her house seemed quiet. Did Isabella really come here? Or did she come here earlier? Is she still in the house? When my thoughts drifted far away. Suddenly someone opened the door from inside the house and greeted me. I immediately turned my body to face her.
“Alpha?"
"Lila, sorry to bother you."
"Are you looking for your wife Isabella?"
"Of course, is she still here or did she come here? Because this morning she said goodbye to me to go to your house to discuss her pack problem."
"Yes, Isabella came here and we did talk about the pack. Earlier we made an organigram about the new management at Crystal Lake Pack. But Isabella has been home for a long time."
"Did she go home alone?"
"Of course, it seems so."
"Okay, Lila, I'll take my leave; excuse me."
"Yes, Alpha, please."
I immediately went home because I felt like I wanted to meet my wife there soon. It seemed like she had been waiting for me and prepared lunch for us to eat together as usual. I couldn't wait for that moment to happen. I just wanted to relax with her and enjoy the rest of the day. I think we will create a romantic atmosphere again this afternoon. I immediately sped up my journey to be able to get home. But when I got home I didn't find anyone in the house. Everything seemed quiet and there was no Isabella in the house. I started to wonder about Isabella's whereabouts now. Is she currently at her parents' house? Yes, maybe that's true, she visited maybe after not seeing her parents for a long time after getting married.
Knock, Knock, Knock.
Suddenly I heard from outside the sound of someone knocking on the door. Was it Isabella? Hmm .. did Isabella have to knock to enter her own house? Did she have to? Hmm .. I don't think it was Isabella. I immediately walked towards the exit of this house. Making sure that the person hadn't left. I opened the door after arriving in front of it. I saw Kenzo who was the son of a Beta named Mr. Rezso. He was part of another member.
I mean he was a Shadow Fang Pack who was in the same group as Lucas. I had deliberately met him often lately. Since the incident where Lucas messed up my proposal to Isabella. I needed a trusted person in the pack. His job was to spy on Lucas' movements. I didn't want Lucas to cheat on me. By approaching Isabella, he had raised the war flag against me. I also trusted Kenzo to make sure everything was safe. Luckily Kenzo could be trusted. But now he has come here, what's wrong? It seemed like he was about to deliver important news regarding Lucas. "You? What's wrong?" I asked Kenzo curiously.
"I have important news for you, Alpha."
"Important news? Regarding Lucas? What else does he want to do to Isabella?"
I started to feel shocked, considering that Isabella hadn't come home yet and she wasn't at Lila's house.
"Umm.. come on tell me!"
"I just found Luna being taken somewhere by Lucas."
"Where is that place?"
"The place is not far from the Shadow Fang Pack area."
"Okay, I'll go there now to catch up with my wife."
"Yes, I think it should be, as soon as possible. Because I'm worried that something bad will happen to Luna in Lucas' hands."
Without further ado, Kenzo and I immediately went there. Kenzo showed me the directions to the place. I felt like I was starting to get hot. My body temperature felt hotter than before. Maybe I was jealous of Lucas. He was really rude and started to make me angry. You'll see later I'll do the math on him. I was really overcome with burning jealousy. Throughout the journey, I felt like I wanted to immediately throw fists and scratches at Lucas. Couldn't hold it in for too long. This anger dragged me even more to force Kenzo to speed up his steps to take me to Lucas and Isabella. Finally, we arrived at the place Kenzo pointed out.
"It's there!"
I saw that there was no one there. Could it be that Kenzo saw it wrongly? But how could he see wrongly? I made sure again by asking him.
"Did you really see it there? Were they both there?"
"Yes, I saw it earlier; they were indeed both there after walking from the gate of the Lucas area, taking Isabella away, and walking until they arrived at this place."
"Emm, did Isabella come here alone?"
"Yes, that's right, I saw Luna come alone without anyone accompanying her here."
I started to take a deep breath.
