Alpha Luka And His Human Mate

Risella. January 1,2017

It was her. This was Ella!

"She looks so much like me" I whispered, taking in the impossibly resembling features of the girl.

Her hair was a beautiful jet black colour, even darker than Emma's. Her eyebrows were slightly thinner and more arched than mine, and her cheeks were plumper than mine, but everything else screamed Victoria.

I jumped from the bed and ran to a nearby mirror, holding the picture beside my face. If I lined my eyebrows and dyed my brown hair, I'd be the twin of this girl.

That was why Luka called me Ella that night at the cliff.

That day in diner when he told me that I looked like her, but wouldn't tell me who. The night when Caleb first saw me and told Luka that he had a type. It was all because I looked so much like her.

My eyes involuntarily watered as I slowly sat beside Emma once again.

"This is why he likes me" I whispered, as the first tear rolled down my cheek. "This is why his wolf chose me isn't it? Because I look like her!" I cried holding the picture towards Emma. She shook her head with sadness in her eyes.

"Victoria that's not why he chose yo-"

"Then why did he choose me? I'm just a human, not a wolf like you all. Think about it Emma, why would his wolf imprint on a human? It was because I reminded them of their dead mate!" I screamed as I tugged at my hair, feeling frustrated.

Maybe I was overreacting, but it really shook me up. I don't even know where my confidence level was at right now. I don't even know where I stood with him.

"Victoria please calm down. I'm sure that's not the reason why he chose you. You're so different from her, he likes you for you" She reasoned, but all I could think about was how I might be one of those doppelgangers from The Vampire Diaries.

"Why didn't you guys tell me?" I asked, finally calming down.

"I didn't think it was important. When I look at you I see Victoria, not Ella. I know you guys have some similar features but please don't let this affect your view on us"

Sighing, I gently leaned my head against her shoulder as she lightly rubbed my head in a soothing manner.

Would I have even been here if I looked different?

I glanced at the open drawer, when I saw a picture frame with a picture Luka and Ella. I took it out, seeing that more were under the first one. I eventually noticed that they were the missing frames from the walls.

"This was their room" I whispered more like a statement than a question, as I looked at each picture carefully, taking in how happy and in love they looked in each picture.

"He really loved her didn't he?" I asked and she nodded, answering my question.

Sighing, I closed the album and put back the frames except one. I took the one I liked the most and gently hung it in a spot that had a missing frame. He shouldn't try and hide his past.

I gestured for Emma to follow me as I closed the door and walked to my floor in silence. I spotted Luka as we turned the corner, and his face immediately held concern as he rushed towards me.

"Why were you crying?" He asked, holding my face.
