Chapter 37

Ethan's POV
I still feel like Lucas has stabbed me in the back. Even though I am his own brother. Even so, I still act normally in public or even in front of him. Acting like an older brother to his younger brother who is full of attitudes and feelings of love and affection. Even though, in reality, my heart really loves Lucas. I am really confused about choosing a wife or a sister. But both are so important to me. It's just that I want to find a bright spot in Lucas's true story.
A few moments later I haven't found Lucas approaching us here. Even though the wolf nation's leaders have gathered here for quite some time. But Lucas still doesn't show any signs that he will be here soon. Where could he be? It was already very late afternoon, and we were about to start having our afternoon meal with the other pack members.
A moment later, the meal was ready in front of us. Suddenly Lucas came alone. I didn't find Isabella with him. Where is Isabella now? Why isn't she in the Shadow Fang Pack area? Has Isabella not arrived here yet and is still at her father's house? For a moment, I took the time to whisper to my father-in-law, who was now sitting next to me.
"Father-in-law, shhh."
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Where is Isabella? Has she been here?"
"Yes, this morning she said goodbye to go here."
I started looking around for Isabella and her whereabouts now. Even though I was sitting in one place, my mind and eyes were still exploring my wife's whereabouts. But suddenly my efforts were stopped by the time for lunch. We immediately ate the dishes that had been served. We also ate together with great solemnity and joy. Even though my mind was still wandering to my wife.
But my mind believed that maybe Isabella was now in the public kitchen. Maybe I would find her after we finished having our afternoon meal together. Or maybe Isabella deliberately hid so as not to meet me in front of many people and especially in front of Lucas himself. I understood and accepted that. Just let it be if that was what she meant right now.
After finishing our afternoon meal together, we immediately continued our conversation. I was so busy right now and didn't have much time to get out of this environment. I was really surrounded by the Wolf nation's leaders. I think I will be stuck here until break time later. When we were given free time to clean ourselves or just walk around the Shadow Fang Pack area. Before finally arriving at the bonfire event tonight. The event that is the peak of this activity. I think Isabella will be at the event. Especially at night, hopefully I can meet her first before I finally leave for the Leon Ching Pack area to meet Elder Rowan.
Because I also actually feel risky to travel there. Especially taking a long and steep journey through the peak of Bessara Hill which is known to be haunted. I don't know where the point of the time dimension coil is that many people mean. But my mind is confused now because I'm worried that Kurt and I could be sucked into the time dimension coil.
Until entering another time dimension that we don't recognize. Hus... My mind is really chaotic and crazy. I make sure Kurt and I will be safe until we get home again and get here to reveal the real truth. Even though that's how it is, I just want to be with my wife at least tonight.
The rest activities have also been opened. I started to say goodbye to the others to find the nearest water source because I wanted to take a shower first. I think I'm very hot this afternoon and need to clean the sweat from my body. Finally, I found the water source I was looking for. Until I took a shower very freely in the fast-flowing water.
So fresh but very cold. After finishing my shower. I started walking around the Shadow Fang Pack area. While checking the environment here whether it was really organized or still messy. But on the other hand, I still wanted to find my wife, Isabella.
The sun has now returned and been replaced by the moon. Its light has dimmed and what is there is night looming with its dark charm. The clouds there above are moving quickly because they are dragged by the night wind. Plus the fog that is not too thick covers the view of this eye.
Hey finally ... What I'm looking for has now been found. I started to cover both of her eyes with both of my hands from behind her body.
"Hey, who are you?" Isabella rebelled.
I didn't let go of my grip at all.
"Hey, who are you? Come on, admit it! Let go!" She seemed annoyed.
Finally, I opened her eyelids. She immediately looked back and then turned her body towards me.
"Hey, you! Who do I think you were." She didn't seem to believe that I did it. Now I was right in front of her.
I immediately pulled her hand and looked for a safe hiding place for the two of us. She followed me willingly.
"Hey, why are you here? Why weren't you there at the bonfire crowd? The event was almost about to start." She was so talkative and noisy.
"Hust, don't be noisy." I held my index finger on her lips to close them tightly. She finally became quiet and stopped talking.
"Don't be noisy! Later they will hear your voice and know where we are here." I emphasized again.
She nodded understanding what I meant. We started to sit in a comfortable position leaning on these stacked wooden boxes. While occasionally looking at the crowd and the bonfire that was starting to burn in the middle of the field.
I started to feel safe now that I could find my wife in good condition. She stared at me closely and we looked at each other with meaningful and meaningful gazes. I really didn't want to let her go tonight. We started chatting amidst the hustle and bustle of the crowd at the other end. We started joking and enjoying the night together in a hiding position. I really didn't want to leave her tonight.
I saw Isabella showing her happiness through her cheerful and cheerful attitude when she was with me. We really needed a moment like this and to be free from unnecessary problems.
Suddenly we saw Lucas walking behind the crowd there.
"Hey, is that Lucas?"
"Yes, that's right, Lucas."
"What's he doing?"
"Looks like he's looking for you."
"Shut up!"
We didn't want Lucas to see us here. That's why we started peeking at him.
