Two days later, Selena and Alexander found themselves standing in front of a large, old-fashioned house on the outskirts of the city. The place belonged to Professor Alden, a well-known historian and researcher of ancient civilizations. The house had a mysterious aura, with tall oak trees lining the path leading to the entrance.
Alexander rang the doorbell, and a moment later, an elderly man with silver hair and sharp, perceptive eyes opened the door. He greeted them warmly.
"Alexander! It's been years. You've grown into quite the man," the professor said with a smile. His gaze shifted to Selena. "And you must be Selena. Come in, both of you."
They followed him into a spacious study filled with old books, ancient artifacts, and strange maps pinned on the walls. The atmosphere was thick with history, as if the past lingered in every corner.
As they settled into the leather chairs, Alexander began to explain everything the accident, the coma, the vivid dreams, and the shared vision of being in a kingdom from another time. Selena added her own experiences, detailing how real everything had felt.
When they finished, Professor Alden leaned back in his chair, stroking his chin thoughtfully.
"It's rare, but not unheard of," he said finally. "Throughout history, there have been stories of souls bound together across lifetimes. Some believe it's fate, while others call it a curse. What you experienced might be an echo of a past life a memory imprinted on your souls."
Selena's heart raced. "But why now? Why did it happen after Alexander's accident?"
The professor smiled faintly. "Sometimes, it takes a near-death experience to awaken such memories. When the soul is close to the edge, it becomes more aware of its eternal nature. You and Alexander are what some might call 'twin flames.' Your souls are connected, destined to find each other no matter the time or place."
Alexander tightened his grip on Selena's hand. "So, what do we do? How do we stop whatever happened in the past from repeating itself?"
Professor Alden stood, walking over to one of the shelves. He pulled out an ancient-looking book and placed it on the table before them. The cover was embossed with strange symbols that neither of them recognized.
"This is a chronicle of twin flame legends," Alden explained. "It might help you understand what you're dealing with. But be warned the path of twin flames is never easy. If you truly want to change your fate, you must be prepared to face great challenges."
Selena and Alexander exchanged a glance, determination shining in their eyes.
Later, as they left the professor's house, the weight of their shared destiny settled heavily on their shoulders. But there was also a spark of hope. They weren't alone in this journey,and together, they would uncover the truth no matter how long it took.
Back in Alexander's car, Selena opened the book. The first page held a single line written in elegant script:
"Only those who remember their past can rewrite their future."
