~Emerald~I continued walking my feet without looking back to James. He tried reaching me, but then Levi came, asking him for a word. I was relieved from Levi's sudden interruption, giving me time to think.At this moment, I decided to look for Cassandra and found her outside the mansion. She raised her head, worries evident on her face.“What happened?” Cassandra said, making me let out a deep breath.“I came to her room and it's true. My husband was there, and I caught them hugging. However, James and Althea explained to me that it was just a friendly hug…” I explained it to my best friend.Cassandra put Jacob back to his stroller, and then she looked at me deep into my eyes. I know what she would tell me.“A friendly hug?” She uttered, nodding her head as if something was already in her mind. “Are you sure that was just a friendly hug?”I gasped, hearing these words from Cassandra. I understand her point. She was just protecting me, but then I suddenly realized something.A deep an
~Emerald~“You're overreacting, Emerald.”I was stunned when James mentioned these words to me with his cold expression. His words seemed to be piercing my heart. I just can't believe it and knowing that these words are coming from him, I felt disappointed.“You're accusing me of overreacting?” I mimic, my voice is as cold as the snow.James shut his eyes, trying to calm himself down. I can feel the frustration from his face just by how he looked at me.“Look, I'm sorry. I didn't intend to say that to you,” James uttered in a soft voice.I shook my head, stepping my feet backward as I prepared myself to leave.“If you're thinking of me as overreacting, then you just misinterpreted me. This is absolutely useless, James. Let's take a break for a moment. We wouldn't agree to each other thinking that neither of us were on good terms,” I muttered at James.He wanted to say something to me, when I turned my back away before he could even utter. Just the moment I turned my back away, I took
~Emerald~My heart stopped beating for a moment as I saw her face. I was just surprised that Althea came out from her room, and now she's roaming in here as if she belongs here.“I'm sorry if I had to come with you. I wasn't really familiar with the place,” Althea uttered, her eyes seemed pleading.I tilted my head as I looked at her, carefully observing her from head to toe. She was still covered with bruises but it's started to heal now.“Is there anything you want from me?” I asked in my cold tone.Althea took out a deep breath, as if she's weighing the words she wanted to utter.“I am so sorry if I accidentally discovered your world. It's not really my intention to get lost here. My kidnappers took me away from the city. They brought me into the woods that I wasn't familiar with until they started doing their intentions to me,” Althea explained, making me furrow my brows as I listened to her.I don't know her reason for telling me this. She should explain this to wolves because I
~Emerald~My heart tightened when I saw James' worried expression. I could feel my expression hardened as I looked at him.“I heard what happened to you. Are you alright?” James asked me.He immediately walked into my direction, and Cassandra excused herself out, letting us talk with each other.“What are you doing here? I thought you're busy working,” I mumbled, my tone seemed so cold.Alpha James let out a deep and heavy breath as he took my hand. He kissed the back of my hands, making me bite my lower lips.“Yes, but after I found out what happened to you, I put it aside. You're important to me, Emerald, just so you know. I know we couldn't avoid fighting each other, but my love for you would never have changed,” He uttered in his serious tone.I looked at him, deep into his eyes as he spoke these words. Just the way my heart pounded so fast, I couldn't help but smile deep inside.It's true. We may fight, but our love for each other never disappeared.‘Finally, you realized that,’
~Emerald~James couldn't believe what he just heard from the pack doctor. My heart stopped beating for a moment as I heard those words as well. It seems like those words seemed hard to believe.“C-Can you clarify this to us again?” I mutter, still unsure from what I heard.As I looked at James, disbelief written from his face. I know he couldn't believe what the pack doctor had mentioned to us.“As I was saying earlier, you're pregnant, Luna Emerald. You are carrying your second child with Alpha James and this is the reason you felt dizzy from earlier…”I was stunned in my direction when the pack doctor clarified this to us. At this moment, I clearly understand it already. The information she uttered was clear to me.“W-Wait, my wife is pregnant with my s-second child?” James uttered again.I bit my lower lips as I felt the tense from his tone. Hearing James speak like this made me nervous.“Yes, Alpha James. I was telling the truth and soon, I will do another check-up to her to deter
~Emerald~“No, let me handle everything, Emerald. I will take good care of them and you…”James paused for a moment as he stared at me deep into my eyes before speaking up again and as I waited for his response, I could feel my heart pounding so fast.“All you need to do is just stay here and take good care of yourself. You're carrying our child now. I don't want you to worry about anything,” James muttered, his eyes sparkling with happiness.“B-But, what about Gideon? We're not done dealing—”I wasn't able to finish my sentence again when James cut me off from talking.“Did I tell you not to worry about our enemies?” He asked, while his brows furrowed.I let out a sigh, nodding my head in agreement.“Yes, you told me that, but…”Just before I could continue my words, we were suddenly disturbed by voices from the door. As I turned my head there, the people so close to us had arrived.Cassandra immediately ran into my direction, her eyes glistened with happiness as she held my hands.“
~Emerald~After we got the information from the pack doctor, James tells everyone to exit the room because he wanted me to rest. I told him that everything will be alright, but he never listened. He wanted me to rest, and now I'm here all day in the room. And since I don't want to argue with him, I follow.It was still the first day that I learned I'm pregnant with our second child when I began to feel the symptoms of being pregnant. My head felt dizzy every time I stood up from the bed, and I felt like I wanted to vomit.‘If I were you, better stay in the room. The doctor said you have to rest…’ Lilian suggested, but I immediately shook my head.I have decided to get up from my bed to go out. It's already four in the afternoon and I wanted to see my son. He's with Cassandra right now.‘I can't stay here all day long, Lilian. I need some fresh air,’ I muttered. As Lilian heard these words from me, she let out a sigh. She knows I won't listen to her. It would be a waste of time if she
~Emerald~My eyes darkened as what Althea had uttered. I couldn't help but grit my teeth hearing her answer to the question, while the others gasped in surprise. “What the hell are you saying, Althea!?” James asked in his disbelief reaction. I remained standing in my same position, while my eyes were with Althea. She doesn't even show any emotions but not until we heard a loud laugh. It echoes in the living room, making all of us puzzled about what was happening. “I was just joking. I'm sorry, I can't help it. You know, I was once a joker in our world and my mission is to make everyone happy with my jokes!” Althea blurted, while laughing. My teeth gritted as I heard her say this. I was already on the point of smashing her face. She didn't know what could possibly happen to her if she never said anything.“That's not even a good joke, Althea!” James mumbled, his voice threatening her.Althea notices that she's the only one who laughed at her joke, so she stops. “Did I? I'm sorry.
~Emerald~Months had passed by so quickly that we didn't notice. There are so many things that happened to us and now, I am carrying our second child. My labor is about to arrive, and we are now preparing for that. At this moment, I was in the living room with my friends. James is not here today because he has a meeting with the other Alphas. Of course, nothing changed. He's still busy with his responsibility and as his wife, I am being understandable.Aside from being the most powerful wolf, he's also handling the pack that we live in now.“Is there anything you wanted to eat, Emerald?” Katie asked.I looked at her, a smile formed on my lips. Never did I imagine that Katie would stay with us until now. Our start was never good. She's James' mistress before, but I was able to forgive her because she changed. She proved to me how sorry she was for what happened, and now she's part of the family. “Anything as long as it's healthy,” I responded, rubbing my stomach. “Got it, Luna,” she
~Emerald~I nodded my head from what James had told me now.“I know, James, but you can't stop me from helping you. You always protected me, and now it's my turn to do the favor,” I muttered in my calm tone.James shut his eyes, calming himself. I even saw him taking a deep breath before taking my hands to hold it.“I love you, Emerald, but you shouldn't feel guilty about all the things I did for you. It is my responsibility to protect you. You don't have to worry about me because I can handle myself. I am already on my way to make them pay because I am James, your Alpha King husband,” he explained, which made me nod my head quickly.“I know, I know, but it's done now. I already killed them with my gun. You couldn't get back to them anymore because I already dealt with them.” I mumbled.He shook his head, his lips curled. I was glad that he didn't get mad at me. I was already expecting him to scold me for being hard-headed, but I didn't expect his response.James kissed the back of my
~Emerald~Silence fell inside the club when my voice echoed inside. But after a minute, they started laughing. I just felt my blood start to boil when they did that, making me hold my gun tightly.“It's us, Beautiful. Do you have a problem with that?”The man in the middle spoke up, his smirk almost reached his ear. I tilted my head, looking at him straight in the eyes.“Look at her. She's playing with a toy gun.”Another one murmured, which made me smirk. They thought my gun was fake. I don't know what their reactions would be if I shoot them. But I will make the scene so thrilling.“Do you want to try this, Ugly?” I murmured, and the moment I muttered these words, it triggered him.He stepped closer to approach me, but before he could move his feet, I shot his leg. An excruciating scream echoes inside the club, which makes the other customers stunned.They moved backward, shock was written on their faces. I know they never expected that the toy gun they called is not actually fake.
~Emerald~As I thought about that group who played with James made my blood boil. James already told me that he's dealing with them, and he assigned Levi to find them now, but I still can't help it.It's as if my inner self was telling me to find them. I won't let them play with James, not the person I loved.So, I planned, but I need Ares' help. James is not in the pack for tonight. He was scheduled to visit another ally pack, and he's staying there for one night. Christopher is with him, which means, Levi and Ares are here.Therefore, I looked for them. I am needing them most for my plan. The moment I saw them, I never wasted more time.“Levi, Ares,” I uttered, seeing the two in the living room.The siblings stood up, looking at me.“What's up, Luna Emerald?” Ares asked, his brows furrowed.I let out a deep breath while looking at them straight in their eyes.“I need both of your help,” I muttered, which made them confused.“What's that, Luna Emerald?” Levi mumbled.My teeth gritted
~Emerald~Gideon and the other enemies that we have before who made our lives terrible are now finally gone. After the battle, we immediately saved those victims that Gideon imprisoned in his hideout, including Malverra.They are so grateful that we saved them from Gideon. Malverra is now reunited with her husband and others went back to their families.It was a relief to me to know that we saved so many lives through ending Gideon. The asshole has already been buried so deep to make sure that no one is going to dig him. Well, I don't think so. Gideon is gone now and there's no way he will return to our world. He's not that powerful.It's been a month since the day we killed Gideon. James and I were wedded again as our fresh start after dealing with Gideon, and now we're living happily in the pack. Even though he's still busy with his pack duties, he still never forgets about us.James made sure that he spent so much time with us, his family.It's already almost in the middle of the n
~Emerald~I can feel my eyes start to darken upon hearing those words towards Gideon. He admitted to James that he doesn't want his offer because what he wanted is to kill James.Gideon is just so wise, but he's not thinking about the capabilities I possess. He's too focused towards James and I used that opportunity to escape from him. I know that this is risky, but I have no other way to escape from him.‘Lilian, you know what to do.’At this point, I let my wolf do the work. Lilian winks at me and the next thing I know, she has already taken my body. Gideon was stunned by what Lilian did, which made him unable to stop us. The moment he let go of me, Lilian started running through James' direction.When James witnessed what my wolf did, he also used that opportunity to run into Gideon's direction. James couldn't move because he knows if he does that, something might happen to me and now that I am no longer in Gideon's hands, nobody can stop James to kill him.After we reached James'
~Emerald~I have no idea where the hideout of Gideon is, but I follow where my heart is taking it. I just listened to my feelings and then my vision also showed me the way. That was unexpected. I never thought that my vision would reveal the way to where the battleground is.For me to reach there easily, I let my wolf lead the way. It only took us half an hour before we finally reached the place. I didn't encounter enemies on my way through the battlefield and was able to arrive there peacefully.‘Emerald, better watch your surroundings. You have finally come to the place where the Alpha prohibits you to step into.’ Lilian reminded me, and I nodded my head in response.I took out my gun and started walking through the woods. Howls can be heard in my direction, which made me confirm that I wasn't lost.‘I will just find James. He's the reason I followed in here!’ I murmured at the back of my head, while continuing to walk through the hideout.After one minute, I finally reached the fie
~Emerald~I was currently in the room, thinking about James. It's been an hour already since they left the pack and I can't help but think of them. There would be a lot of things to happen knowing that I am not beside him. I just hope that James will succeed in killing Gideon.Making him disappear will solve all of our problems.‘You have to calm down, Emerald. Alpha James is definitely going to make it,’ Lilian uttered at the back of my head.I took out a deep breath before responding to her. It's true that I am really worried until now and this won't disappear if I couldn't see James.‘How can I calm down knowing that he's dealing with Gideon now, Lilian?’ I mumbled, and she just sighed.Lilian was about to speak again when I froze into my direction. I sensed some unfamiliar presence through the woods and my heart began to throb.I went to the window and checked the woods to confirm what I just felt right now. My teeth gritted when I noticed the incoming unfamiliar scents into our p
~Emerald~The moment I opened my eyes, I realized that we are finally back home. James' handsome face met my eyes. His brows furrowed when he looked at me, waiting when I would open my eyes.“What?” I murmured, raising my brows.“I thought you had no plan of waking up. We are finally back at the pack,” he responded.I moved my head around and then realized that we are still inside the car.“Why didn't you wake me up?” I wondered.This time, he couldn't hide his chuckle.“Why would I? My lady is sleeping peacefully, and I don't want to disturb you in your sleep.”I just shook my head, my lips curled. James helped me come out of the car, and now we're heading towards the mansion.The moment we are about to step inside the mansion, Levi rushes towards us. He was calling James' name, and we turned around at him.“Alpha James, you need to know something,” Levi stated, making my brows furrow.The serious expression on his face just made me so nervous. I know this reaction from Levi. He brin
