Chapter 9

Isabella's POV
I began to be carried away by the enthusiasm given by Lila. Feeling optimistic about facing my life now. Trying to ignore the problems related to Lucas. Starting to focus on my relationship with Ethan. And I started to schedule a meeting with the Crystal Lake Pack that was entrusted to me as Omega. Moreover, my father, Beta, is old enough to lead the pack. So there are many things I have to take over so that everything continues to run as it should.
The agenda has arrived. Today is the day when Lila and I attend the pack meeting. Everyone is present in this forum without missing anything, I convey all the information I got at the meeting with the wolf leaders a while ago. They are enthusiastic about listening to what I said. It's just that from that corner I saw a werewolf protesting loudly. Trying to provoke the other members. Her name is Kanya, she really shows her sentimentality towards me. I don't know why she acted like that. I haven't found a definite answer until now.
"Instructions." While raising her right hand.
"Yes, please."
"Isn't this information too late to be conveyed to us? Considering the time of your meeting with the wolf leaders is quite far from today. Where you only conveyed the information that you should have conveyed at least a day after the meeting was held." Kanya said ambitiously to drag everyone's gaze towards me to be a little poisoned.
"I already apologized earlier, was it not clear enough?"
"Look guys, how careless and selfish the omega in our pack is."
All eyes were on me.
"Yes, that's right, if you want to be a leader. Then be a leader who is agile in working, especially since this concerns something very important." Added Theo, who, as far as I know, is Kanya's older brother.
It seems that they have indeed conspired to destroy the Crystal Lake Pack. Why is that? Because it is suspected that they have their own ambitions. Especially considering their very suspicious background. Where Theo and Kanya are children from a cross between a wolf couple with different packs. Their mother comes from the Thunder Howlers Pack while their father comes from the Crystal Lake Pack. I think they have a certain and separate mission. Considering that many wolves from the Thunder Howlers Pack do have an ambitious nature. They often always expand to expand their territory and then they empower it for the leaders of their pack. So I think that cunning nature is very inherent in Kanya and Theo. They seem to want to seize my father's power in the Crystal Lake Pack by slowly replacing me and contaminating the doctrine in the pack.
"Hey, you dare to mess with the omega!" It seems that Lila is starting to get angry with their behavior.
Feeling threatened for a moment, then Theo immediately did something unexpected.
"Okay guys, I think you have your own ratios. Quickly take the right action before our pack, the Crystal Lake Pack, is destroyed in the hands of Isabella who I feel is not really capable of accepting leadership representation as an omega. Quickly determine the right course before everything feels more in vain!"
"Okay, how about we start determining a firm stance?" Strengthened Kanya.
"What if we choose Kanya as the new wolf leader in this pack?" Theo made a suggestion that made me speechless, and I could only freeze here.
"Hey, how can you talk like that? What crazy idea is that?" Lila who was even more furious with the craziness created by Theo and Kanya.
"I choose Kanya." Said the wolf in the crowd the same.
"Me too."
"I also choose Kanya."
One by one, they spoke, and I could only swallow my saliva. Lila was also surprised by the response of all the pack members who expressed themselves about their respective choices so bravely.
"Isabella, don't just stay silent!" Lila said while shaking my body. While I was still stiff with a blank stare, not believing this situation. At the same time feeling confused by this unexpected incident.
Suddenly I saw Kanya and Theo's expressions smile faintly with great joy because many had voiced their support for them.
"No! I'm sticking with Isabella." Said someone in the middle of the crowd.
"I'm also staying on the right track, with Isabella."
One by one, people began to appear who supported me. Approximately the percentage comparison between those who chose me and those who chose Kanya was only ten percent different. Still superior to me, it turned out. I was at an estimated sixty percent. The rest of the one hundred percent belonged to Kanya. I didn't expect that out of the many members of the Crystal Lake Pack, some really didn't like me, up to forty percent by the estimated count. Suddenly I saw Kanya and Theo's faces turn gloomy. But they didn't dampen their spirits to remain the opposition.
"Come on, whoever follows Kanya, let's move our gathering place!" Theo said.
"Yes, come on, follow me!" Kanya explained.
One by one, they followed Kanya's footsteps and left me, Lila, and my followers, from the pack members who were still loyal to my path.
Now only the rest of the few who have left follow Kanya and Theo's footsteps.
"Omega, what's next? What should we do to make the Crystal Lake Pack whole again?" Someone asked, representing everyone's questions.
"Calm down! Calm down! Let Isabella rest for a while. After that, we will announce the continuation of all of this." Lila said taking over the forum because maybe she thought that I was just keeping quiet and pensive, not being able to decide anything related to all of this.
"Okay."
"You better go now and leave this group. I hope you understand Isabella's current situation!" Lila immediately became my spokesperson.
Now there's only me and Lila after everyone died here. I was still frozen and Lila tried to calm me down. She calmed me down by intoxicating me with a new spirit in my current condition. Starting to pat my shoulder from the side.
She patted and then she rubbed it.
"Calm down Isabella, don't be discouraged. We'll think about this later. Now you better go to Ethan to continue your life goals personally!"
I turned to Lila with teary eyes. It's hard for me to express my feelings right now. How weak I am, but in my weakness I still have friends. I still have Lila by my side. If Lila wasn't there then I would feel alone and very devastated. After they so openly left me. Added to my unresolved love affair.
