"I also know that Reese must be very angry about what you did earlier. He must have also forced you to have s*x with him, right? I've heard that Reese really likes rough s*x. Was he so rough when he had s*x with you? I was right, wasn't I?! Reese, must have forced you, Eleanor. Are you okay, Eleanor? Say something, and don't keep quiet like this? You're making me feel very anxious now. Say something, Eleanor!"

Fiona quickly grasped my arms tightly with both palms now. Fiona had a very anxious expression on her face that looked right at me. But I knew very well by now, that it was all false. It was all full of lies. Now, I was no longer Eleanor Jane who was easily tricked and deceived by all the fake worries that Fiona showed. I was now well aware that Fiona was always using me and also using me to get close to Reese indirectly, whenever she had the chance.

But in my previous life, I was too stupid to always continue to believe every word Fiona said to me. And I myself was completely unaware of the true intentions that Fiona had for me at that time. In my previous life, I always thought that Fiona came to be able to help me escape and also escape from Reese's grasp. But I had no idea that Fiona had actually come to create distance between me and Reese.

"Did he also hurt you, Eleanor? Hey, don't just stay quiet and pensive like that. You look really messy right now." Fiona gently touched my messy hair. Fiona seemed to be trying to tidy up my hair now.

"Did Reese really act so rough during s*x with you? Where did he hurt you? And how badly, Eleanor?"

I just looked at Fiona without intending to say anything. All those words she had been saying felt like nonsense to me now. Even so, I decided to keep listening to every word Fiona would say next. I had to pretend to believe everything Fiona said. Because, I didn't want to make Fiona feel suspicious and also strange, if I already knew about all the things that had happened between me and her in my previous life.

Everything Fiona said now was exactly the same as what she had said in my previous life. But now, I reacted differently. I was no longer crying, wailing, and begging Fiona for help. Now I was just stay silent

"I told you about everything, didn't I, Eleanor? That Reese Carson is indeed a very cruel and heartless Alpha. Amongst all the Alphas here, Reese Carson is the biggest jerk. Because, he was very powerful of all the Alphas, so he had much higher power than the other Alphas. You could say, if Reese Carson, used his power and also his power as Alpha King, to trap you to stay with him, and treat you arbitrarily."

Fiona released the grip of her hands on my shoulders, and sighed loudly there. But I decided to remain silent, and waited to see how far Fiona would continue to speak in front of me now. Even so, I myself also had to continue to hold back all the emotional turmoil that I was feeling. I didn't want to explode my emotions, and destroy the pretense that I was showing to Fiona right now. It's still not the right time for all my plans right now.

"But, don't worry about anything from now on, Eleanor. Asher and I, both of us, will definitely come and help you, so that you can be completely released from Reese Carson's grasp. You and Asher can escape together to a far-off place. Then the two of you can live together very happily, without any disturbances, threats, and worries that Reese Carson will give to the two of you later."

Fiona even for the umpteenth time, directly touched my left shoulder with the palm of her right hand, and gave a few gentle strokes there. It looked like she was trying to calm me down who was just silent and listening to her every word right now. Fiona even continued to behave, as if she was really my best friend until now. And I felt really sick of it.

"Therefore, before it's too late... you must be able to leave Reese Carson, Eleanor. You and Asher should get back together and try to escape from Reese Carson's The Ecplise Thunder Pack. Otherwise, danger will always threaten you, no matter where you end up, Eleanor. Considering how vast Reese's power is, he must have a lot of people who will support him and help him. If only, you had escaped from inside his pack again. I'm very sure, if Reese will definitely be very easy to get you back later. I don't know what way she will do it, but Reese will always be able to find you, and have you again."

Fiona shuddered, and once again pretended to be scared by all the things she had just said to me there.

"Therefore, Asher and I will help you escape from Reese again. You must be able to immediately and completely leave Reese now, Eleanor. Otherwise, Reese will definitely be able to threaten your life if necessary. Not only that, Reese will definitely threaten your entire family. You certainly don't want that to happen, do you? On top of that, he has even forced you to have s*x with him, as a punishment for you, because you had decided to run away together with Asher earlier. Who knows what other punishments Reese will be able to give you, if you don't completely leave and disappear from her life. That feels very terrible, Eleanor."

I unconsciously gripped the blanket that I was still using to cover my naked body. I did so in order to hold back and suppress all the emotions I was feeling right now. I keep telling myself that I need to stay in control. I must not lose control of myself now. Fiona doesn't even stop to brainwash me with all the manipulative things she says to me now. And I've had enough of hearing her voice in my head.

In fact, if I think back to the events in my previous life, it was because of my stupidity and naivety that I always believed everything Fiona said that was full of nonsense. And also I who always continued to support all the plans that Fiona and Asher had prepared beforehand, under the pretext of being able to help me escape as far as possible from Reese, was the main cause of how I died. Because of Fiona's b*llsh*t and manipulative words, I had gotten my death which was very painful in my previous life.

"Alright, I have to go first now. I'll see you later."

After that, Fiona left in a hurry from Reese's room and pack. All I remember is that Fiona and Asher, for sure, will carry out their next plan to trap me.

But now, after the Moon Goddess has given me a second chance at life, things will go very differently. I will never allow all of Fiona's nonsense and manipulation to make me believe her again. I wouldn't be so easily deceived by the two of them again now. In this new life of mine now, I already know what will happen in the future. So I won't easily allow all the tricks between Fiona and Asher to be successfully done to me.

Instead, I myself will make the fate of my second life favor me, and make Fiona's and Asher's lives much worse than my previous life. I will make them both regret all the actions, and also all the plans that they have prepared for me. I will never let Fiona and Asher live in peace in my current life. I myself must start preparing all the plans that I will make to be able to repay all the things that have been done to me in the past. And I will make sure that the price of their betrayal is their lives.

Three days had passed now, since Reese and I had s*x earlier. I never thought that there would still be events that went on like in my previous life. I recalled all the things and events that had happened in my previous life. That was when Reese didn't show up at all in front of me for three days straight. I think, Reese was trying to avoid me, to be able to calm himself down. I also thought, that Reese might be avoiding me, so that he would not lose control of himself, with the feelings of anger, and also disappointment that he might still feel towards me now. And I realized that was a bad thing.

And for many days in my current life, I continued to try very hard to become closer to Reese. To become someone who could possibly be even better, to be able to gain Reese's trust. Because after all, I only have Reese in this life. Someone like Reese, who is unquestioningly willing to give me a huge amount of trust, even though I myself have betrayed that trust many times. And I needed to make up for all the mistakes I had made in my previous life.

But the problem now was Reese who didn't even want to give me the slightest chance. As if, Reese himself has almost lost the trust he has for me now. And I don't want all the things I'm afraid of to happen later. I still need her as my companion. Or should I admit that I myself am getting used to Reese's presence around me? And Reese's absence here even makes me start to feel very empty.

I feel like I'm becoming incomplete. Or I have no idea. Perhaps, everything I feel now is just a suggestion, for all the bad things I've gone through and also experienced in my previous life. Besides, Reese himself even actually kept the words he said to me three days ago. About me not being able to leave his pack. Reese has locked me up inside this Eclipse Thunder Pack of his for the past three days.

Reese himself also didn't even want to talk to me directly. Even just to make small talk or look directly at me, he didn't want to at all. Reese seemed to disappear and hide because of his anger towards me three days ago. And it all feels very frustrating for me right now. Now, I have a plan to meet Reese in person. I don't want Reese to keep avoiding me like this.

My plan is to make food that Reese might like. This is the first time I've actually cooked food for someone else to enjoy, and that's for Reese. And I myself had never even thought about this before. Thinking back to how Reese who loved me so much from the beginning until now, I thought, it would be good to be able to make her believe in me once again. I don't want to keep disappointing Reese, and that karma could come back to me later. I don't want that to happen later.

"Luke, can you tell Reese that I really want to see him now? There's something I have to give him. It's very special. Please." I asked Luke, Luke Reign, and he was the Beta of The Eclipse Thunder Pack. He is the person Reese can trust the most in this pack.

Since I myself wasn't allowed to go out at all and was confined in this pack for three days, then I didn't have much choice, other than to always talk through Luke in order to meet with Reese. I myself had even tried to talk and send enough messages to Luke, so that he could convey them to Reese, to let me meet with Reese. But the result was still in vain. Reese still didn't want to see me for the past three days.

"Not this again, Eleanor Jane. I'm tired of all the fake attempts you've made these past three days. Alpha Reese himself must be tired too."

Luke, who was looking at his cell phone, immediately raised his head and looked at me with a look that looked very uneasy there. Apparently, Luke himself was even tired of all the effort I had put in over the past three days to meet Reese. Luke put his cell phone in his pocket and stood upright right in front of me now. I was holding the food box that I had prepared since this morning very tightly in both of my hands right now.

"Stop playing around and doing all the sneaky ways to escape from this pack, Eleanor Jane. You know very well that Alpha Reese will always be able to find you and capture you again to get into this pack again later. So you must remain calm now, and wait for the right time until the anger felt by Alpha Reese is over."

Luke is warning me again now. But I guess, I won't be at a loss for ways to make Reese trust me again. I will definitely be able to make Reese calm down and be willing to talk or meet with me after this. And I myself also can't just give up, just because I can't meet with Reese. I have to keep trying, to be able to convince Reese and also Luke if needed.

"I won't run away from The Eclipse Thunder Pack anymore, Luke. I don't want to run away from Reese Carson either. I will remain in this pack, along with Reese. I will never go and leave Reese here alone. I promised, that I would change all the mistakes I made."

I immediately replied to Luke's warning words with a slow tone of voice. After that, I pointed the food box that was in the palm of my hand forward, and showed it to Luke, in order to make him believe what I said to him.

"I just wanted to deliver the food to Reese. I've been preparing and cooking this meal myself since this morning. This... this is my first time cooking for someone else. Before, I very rarely went into the kitchen, and cooked a meal like this. So I thought, it would be much better if Reese could eat it, and tell me about how the dishes I've cooked for her taste."

I paused for a moment, and let out my breath slowly. Withdrawing my hands, I continued to watch Luke's facial expression which looked very surprised by what I had just said to him now.

"So, can I see Reese now, Luke? Please... it's been almost three days, and I haven't seen Reese at all. I just want to try to fix everything that happened between me and Reese before if necessary. I want to be on good terms with Reese again."

"Wait a moment, Eleanor. Just a moment."

Luke immediately raised his right palm, as a sign to make me stop talking. I looked at Luke with a worried look. What if he still didn't want to let me meet Reese? What if he doesn't believe me now?

"Are you really not mistaken, Eleanor?"

"What does that mean?" I mumbled cluelessly after hearing his question.

"What... aren't you mistaking someone right now? I mean, you cooked a meal for Alpha Reese? That was the most ridiculous thing I've heard come out of that mouth of yours in quite some time. Ever since Alpha Reese came back into this pack with you, I could never believe all the things you said, and all the things you did. I'm much more likely to believe that you mixed the food you cooked with poison, and poisoned Alpha Reese to death. Instead of me believing that you only intended to deliver the food you cooked to Alpha Reese."

Luke even started to chuckle there now. Then after that, he looked at me with an incredulous look mixed with an unsure smile on his face right now. Luke rubbed his face with the palm of his right hand in a slow motion. Indicating that he still couldn't believe what he had heard from me earlier.

"After all, ever since you came into The Eclipse Thunder Pack, you've hated Alpha Reese so much, haven't you? Then now, all of a sudden your attitude has changed three hundred and sixty degrees. And that makes me even more convinced that you don't really want to fix things between you and Alpha Reese, Eleanor. I'm also pretty sure that this is all part of your new plan to catch Alpha Reese off guard, so you can use that to escape the pack again. You and your lover are both cunning."

I fell silent after listening to everything Luke said. If I were me in my previous life, then I would say that everything Luke said was true. But not when I'm living in my current life. I really don't want to run away from Reese or leave his pack anymore. I really don't want to go and leave Reese here. I will try very hard, to be able to become the woman that Reese wants me to be. I also don't want to disappoint Reese any further.

"I know that everything that has happened now will have a big impact on everyone's trust here. The things I did before will definitely make you unable to trust me. Just like Reese is feeling right now. Even if I explain everything to you now, you still won't be able to trust me, Luke. And I can totally understand that. Because, it's all my fault too. I've disappointed Reese, The Eclipse Thunder Pack, and troubled you and Reese too much with all the things I've done."

I sighed once more. As for Luke, he was silent and listening to my words there. Luke was even still looking right at me in disbelief.

"If you still can't trust me with my good intentions even a little bit now. Then, fine, it won't be a problem for me now. But I will still go see Reese, no matter what. Even if it has to be under your supervision. Then it won't be a problem for me, Luke. At least, I can meet Reese in person and can give him the food I've made."

Luke is getting more and more silent and seems to be in turmoil with himself right now. I knew he was making a difficult decision for himself there. I knew how well Luke worked under Reese's orders. Of course, Luke wouldn't dare to go against or even disappoint Reese in carrying out the task.

"Alright then."

Luke suddenly muttered, after sighing loudly there. I looked at Luke with an uncertain feeling.

"I'll contact Alpha Reese, and explain to him that you want to meet him in order to give him the food you cooked. But, remember one thing, Eleanor. If Alpha Reese refuses to meet with you, then you must not insist anymore. Enough of all Alpha Reese's disappointments because of you."

"Really? Thank you so much, Luke. Thank you so much... I promise, I will never let Alpha Reese down again. I really do promise."

I mumbled a quick reply to his words, and had a big smile on my lips by now. I felt that long-awaited relief in my heart instantly. After three days, I struggled so hard to meet and talk with Reese again, I was finally able to meet with Reese soon. However, I should be able to repair the relationship between me and Reese sooner or later now.

After that, Luke took his cell phone back from his pants pocket, and started tapping on the screen there. I anxiously hoped and prayed that Reese would pick up Luke's call, and also let me see him now. I looked at Luke's cell phone screen where the call was starting to connect. It instantly made me believe that Reese had received Luke's call.

"Eleanor!"

The call that sounded so loud instantly made me turn around and look right at the source of the sound now. As for Luke, he raised his head and looked forward, right in the same direction as me. There, right in the doorway of The Eclipse Thunder Pack, Asher Jack stood with a confidence that made me sick at once. I was sure that Fiona had let him in.

"This is a good time to get out of this pack, Eleanor! Hurry up, before Reese comes back into this pack and ruins all our escape plans now."

"Hey, how dare you get into this pack again?!" Luke reacted violently.

"You can't stop me from taking Eleanor away. I'm taking Eleanor away and away from this d*mn pack! She doesn't belong to Reese, she only belongs to me. And she will only stay and live with me." I could faintly hear Reese's voice from the direction of the phone call made through Luke's cell phone over there. I'm sure, if Reese had listened to everything.

"D*mn it! Is Asher there again, Luke?! How dare he is in my pack now! How did he get into the pack so easily? Luke, say something! What's going on in there right now? Eleanor! Where's Eleanor?! Is Eleanor there, Luke?! Prevent Eleanor from leaving the pack. I'll be right there! Luke! Say something!" Reese's voice from Luke's cell phone call sounded even angrier now. I could even feel the anger that Reese was feeling just by hearing the tone of his voice there.

"I shouldn't have called Alpha Reese, and believed everything you said to me earlier, Eleanor. If only I could have realized that I myself had fallen into this new trap of yours so easily, Eleanor. You with all your wiles can always try to play a new trick with your lover. You dare to try to trick me and deceive Alpha Reese once again now. D*mn it!"

Luke immediately rebuked me with his harsh words right there. Luke was even standing right next to me while looking right at me with his eyes that looked very angry and distrustful of me. But I'm trying to stay calm now. I can't look panicked at all, seeing Asher's sudden arrival in the pack right now.

"Why should I go with you, Asher? I would never go anywhere with you."

I asked Asher calmly, and I could immediately see the shock on Asher's face now. I myself could also feel how surprised Luke and Reese who were still connected to the phone call were there. I had to stay calm to be able to face Asher now.

"I'm fine inside The Eclipse Thunder Pack. And I'm starting to feel very happy and comfortable with living in this pack now. Being with Reese Carson, has made me start to learn to feel happy, and also comfortable with her"

"Eleanor, what do you mean, what are you saying right now?"

Asher looked at me with a very deep frown on his forehead now. Asher looked completely incredulous at what I had just said.

"Eleanor, did you not know that Reese Carson is the most stubborn and paranoid Alpha? Do you not even realize that at all? Choosing to live with Reese Carson would also lower your dignity and honor as the daughter of the Alpha of the Blood Rose Pack, Eleanor! What is going through your mind right now?"

"I feel very happy living here together with Reese Carson, Asher."

I answered Asher's words calmly again. I just needed to answer his words with words that would make him feel less confident now.

"I'm happy to be spending time together with Reese. He always cares about me. Reese also always tries to understand everything I feel, I think, and I do as well. Reese always tries to give the best for me. I know that Reese is a little stubborn and paranoid, but that's all because he's always worried about me. He doesn't want anything bad to happen to me. And he wants me to always be under his watchful eye. And I have no problem with that at all. Everything Reese does is a sign that she really... really loves me. He really cares about me. And so, I'm very happy to be able to spend a lot of time with Reese Carson, Asher."

The long sentence I had just said to Asher was completely inversely proportional to the sentence I had said in my previous life. Back then, when I was still living in my previous life, Reese also listened to every word and conversation that Asher and I had over the phone. But back then, I was still so stupid and blinded by love, that I decided to leave Reese again, along with Asher. Then afterward, I was caught again by Reese, and locked up in this pack. But not for now. Not in this new life of mine now. I've learned a lot from all the mistakes I've made in my previous life. So I will not repeat the same mistakes now.

"I'm starting to like Reese now, Asher. I like him a lot. And I don't want to be separated from him anymore. Even just for a few seconds. I would never want to be separated from the person I like and care about, Reese."

"Eleanor..." I heard Reese muttering over the phone, and I could tell that the anger that Reese had felt earlier was slowly dissipating now.

I smiled a little at that. In the end, I knew a little bit about how to stop Reese's anger. I looked back at Asher who was still silent and very surprised there.

"It would be best if you left here immediately, Asher. And it's also better if we no longer have any relationship from now on. I don't want to have any relationship with you anymore. The relationship we once had, is over now. Don't you ever come and enter this pack carelessly. Because, I and also Reese do not like the arrival of strangers into this pack at all. So, it's good if you also know your limits in this pack, Asher."

Finally, I could really say that with a bold feeling to Asher. I didn't even feel the pain of this decision anymore. I mean I myself feel very relieved and at ease with the decision I've made now. And it seems like I should have made this decision a long time ago. So that I wouldn't have to die with great disappointment.

"Eleanor, you can't just do this to me! I even risked everything I have! I risked everything just for you. My safety and also the good name of my pack just for you! How could you say all those things so easily, after all the things we've both been through! How could you turn away so easily?! How could you betray me so badly like now, Eleanor?!"

Asher shouted very loudly. That instantly made me turn my head towards Luke who was still looking at me with that incredulous look right now. Luke looked like he was wondering and also confused as he looked at me. And I know how much of an effect the words I just said had on Reese. And I regret why I never realized all the things that have happened now, in my old life.

"Luke, order all the guards to get that man out of this pack now. No stranger should presume to enter Reese's pack, without his direct permission. If he doesn't want to get punished by Reese directly"

I said in a stern tone of voice to Luke now. As for Luke, he himself immediately realized himself there, and blinked his eyelids in a very fast movement. Before finally, Luke turned his gaze back, and looked right at Asher who was still silent right in front of the two of us, and still looked very surprised there.

"Guards, take Asher Jack out of this pack. He can no longer enter this pack carelessly. Make sure that he can never enter this pack, even with just one footstep. Do it quickly!"

So after that, the guards quickly moved to pull Asher's body and dragged him out of The Eclipse Thunder Pack. Asher continued to scream and rebel against the treatment he was getting right now. And I let out my breath slowly. I looked back at Luke who looked happy. Perhaps, he was also relieved and happy about the decision I had made.

"I'm glad that you didn't do something stupid like I thought before, Eleanor. I apologize for suspecting that you were again playing a trick to escape from this pack. And yes, you were even able to calm Alpha Reese down very easily. He even yelled at the top of his lungs on that phone call. He sounded really angry."

Luke whispered right to me. And he looked even calmer after all the tension that had happened in the pack earlier. I could understand that Luke could finally breathe a sigh of relief, because I was no longer the foolish Eleanor Jane blinded by false love that I had been.

"So, can I go and meet Reese now?" I asked Luke again with a small smile on my face.

"I'll ask Alpha Reese first then."

Luke immediately directed the cell phone in the palm of his right hand to get closer to his right ear there. Then started talking to Reese.

"Alpha Reese, do you give permission for Eleanor to see you now? There is something Eleanor needs to give you."

I looked at Luke with an anxious feeling. What if in the end, Reese still refused to see me? And all the anxiety I felt, instantly made my heartbeat feel even faster now. I could even feel the grip of my hands on the food box becoming tighter now. I began to look at Luke curiously for the answer that Reese would give there.

"Alright, Alpha Reese. I'll tell Eleanor."

After that, Luke turned off his cell phone, then put it back into his pants pocket, and looked at me now. A faint smile appeared on his face.

"I'll take you to see Alpha Reese. He has given permission for you to meet him now. Alpha Reese will be waiting for your arrival."

"Thank goodness then. I'm very happy to hear that."

I instantly felt very relieved after hearing the answer given by Reese now through Luke. Afterward, Luke escorted me to the location where Reese was now. Given that Reese was actually not only an Alpha of The Eclipse Thunder Pack, but Reese was also a rich and successful businessman. I never really knew what kind of businessman Reese was before. But I'll try to get to know him very well from now on.

"I'm going back to the pack. You can be here with Alpha Reese. I'm sure he'll take you home on his own later."

Luke told me when he and I were right in front of the door of a room with Reese Carson's name on the front of the door now. This is Reese's room. I turned my head and looked at Luke who was smiling as if encouraging me. I slowly nodded my head very stiffly. I tried to muster up the courage and started to open the door to the room now. When I walked into the room, I saw Reese who was standing right in front of his desk there, and was looking at me now.

"Um... sorry, I really didn't mean to disturb your working hours right now. It's just that, I really wanted to come here so that I could bring you some food. I cooked this meal myself this morning. So, I want you to try-"

Before I could finish speaking, Reese walked with his long and fast footsteps towards me now. Reese cupped my face with both of his large palms, and immediately kissed my lips passionately. I could barely even give a proper reaction now. I'm speechless because I feel so surprised by this kiss that Reese is giving me on the lips right now. A few seconds later, Reese broke our kiss, and looked at me with his eyes that looked very happy there.

"Regardless of the purpose of this sudden change in your attitude, I am very satisfied and happy with your decision, Eleanor. I am very happy that you no longer made the decision to leave me and my pack. I'm glad that you broke off your relationship with Asher Jack who will never even equal the high status you have. Asher is just a b*st*rd. And you are the daughter of an Alpha. I'm very satisfied, with all those words you said to Asher earlier."

Reese rubbed my face that was still in her palms with slow movements. That made me tighten my grip on the food box I was carrying. I looked right into Reese's sparkling eyes. How beautiful those eyes were when looking at me like now. And why did I never realize that?

"And you should never try to leave me again, Eleanor Jane."
