~Emerald~

Time flies so fast that I could not even imagine. I already gave birth to my son, which is Alpha James' child. He's already three months old and all the terrible things that happened to me in the past were worth it after I saw his face.

My child gave me hope to continue life. He was the reason I needed to do things that would keep him in this world. As a mother, I will do everything I can to protect him even if I have to risk my life. I will never allow James to see him and now is the time for me to strike back.

Alpha Gideon has been with me during my nine months of pregnancy until I gave birth. He helped me move forward, start a life, and forget about the terrible things I experienced before. Alpha Gideon has been so kind-hearted to me, and he welcomed me in his pack even if I came from his enemy pack. It does not matter to him if I was once his step-brother's wife.

I am forever grateful to him. It's my time to shine. Alpha Gideon and the rest of the wolves here in this pa

There is something in not right about Gideon. I think he's hiding something big. I don't think he is who he is pretending to be.

    ~James~‘F*ck! F*ck!’A loud crash of a glass cup echoed inside my office. My jaw tightened, eyes darkened out of anger. Today marks the year of Emerald's disappearance. A year full of tears, regrets, and realizations.Many things had happened with my life after my wife's disappearance. I couldn't imagine I would miss her. She was supposed to be forgotten because I had already found my mate. I thought I didn't care about her anymore, but I was wrong. I was definitely wrong for underestimating the effect of Emerald's disappearance.My heart was torn into pieces. It is as if something is missing with me for a year now. I can't forget about her. I can't even forget her image, her beautiful smile, her care, and everything she did to me.The guilt had been hunting me from what I did to her. It's been hunting me even when I closed my eyes. This is maybe my bad karma for wasting her.This is my karma for rejecting her love and for letting her disappear without doing anything to stop her. I k

    ~James~I immediately stood up after I saw my private investigator, the one I hired to look for Emerald. He has finally come back after a month of no contact. I hadn't heard any news from him for a month already and when he mentioned that he knew about Emerald's information, I felt excited.“Tell me.”The investigator moved forward. He locked the door first before he spoke.“We have a problem, Alpha James,” Levi uttered in his sad voice. I furrowed my brows, my hands clenched beneath the table. My eyes didn't break on him. I wanted to know everything he has about my wife.When Emerald disappeared from my life, I realized that I still love her. She was my heart ever wanted, and this is my biggest regret. I regretted that I realized how important she is in my life. The moment I learned where she was, I will never waste time to find her. I have to get her back.‘I hope you're not late, yet,’ Logan mumbled through my head. I just shake him off and wait for Levi's explanation. “Your wife

    ~Emerald~“Is that what you've got?”I gritted my teeth when these words came out from Selene's mouth. She's the head of the warrior wolves of Alpha Gideon, the one who was entrusted to train the newbies. Alpha Gideon assigned Selene to train me, and she's been so tough with me.I have been doing my best to catch up with her lessons, but I can't understand why she's so tough with me.‘She likes Gideon, remember?’I tilted my head when I heard what Lilian had told me. She reminded me about what we found out before. Selene secretly adores Alpha Gideon. I understand now her reason for treating me like this. ‘I don't care about her feelings for the Alpha. She should separate her personal problems with work!’ I uttered through a mind communication.‘Well, we can't blame her. She's just desperate to hurt you knowing how the Alpha cared for you.’I just shook my head at Lilian's last sentence. My focus went back to Selene, who was grinning already. I fell to the ground, and I did not avoid

    ~Emerald~I could still hear Selene's screams and cursed at the back from what I did to her. She can't accept the fact that a weak wolf like me will bite her arm. I don't want to do it with her but she pushed me to limits. She attacked me first and I just did what I was supposed to do to protect myself.“I can't believe the reaction from her face when I bit her, Emerald!” Lilian uttered while laughing. I shook my head, my lips curled.“I was even surprised that we did it with her, knowing that she was the head warrior of Gideon's men.” I uttered towards Lilian.She continued laughing, still can't believe what we did. I walked straight to my cabin where Cassandra was. My heart almost melted when I saw my child, Jacob in his crib with Cassandra beside him. Cassandra lifted her head and placed a smile on her lips.“How's the training, Emerald?” Cassandra looked at me while smiling.I forced a smile and walked towards my son's direction. He was sleeping, and I couldn't stop looking at J

    ~Gideon~“Why do you have to do this to me, Gideon!?”I closed the book that I was reading about dark magic just to look at the woman who just arrived inside my office. My brows were furrowed when I saw Selene, her eyes covered with tears.She was crying like a weak bullsh*t. I rose from sitting to face her, my arms were crossed.“You dared to hurt Emerald, remember?” I asked in my cold tone. Selene messed up her hair out of distressed. I can't stop shaking my head while looking at her. “It's because she was trying to take you from me. You promised me, Gideon, that you will make me your Luna. You told me that you will marry me if I do what you want!” Selene growled.I shook my head in disbelief, not taking my eyes off her. I can't imagine she can still remember the things that I promised to her a year ago. It's supposed to be forgotten because things have changed now. My plans from a year ago had already changed when Emerald came into my life.“I didn't mean it, Selene. None of it

    ~James~My eyes darkened when I saw someone coming in our direction. My wolf wanted to take over to attack him, but I did my best to control it. This is not the right time for an attack. I came here to talk to Gideon at peace, but if he tried to attack me, then I will not back off. ‘Are you really sure with your plans, James?’ Logan asked at the back of my head. I could feel my lips curled, my eyes in Gideon's direction. He is coming to me with his men beside him. I am glad that his beta follows orders from the Alpha King.‘There is no turning back, Logan. I will take my wife from him and I will not leave, not until I bring her with me.’My wolf had no choice but to let out a sigh. He can't do anything to stop me with my plans. I was the one who can decide, and he has to follow me.“He's coming near us, James.”I turned my head at Levi. He moved closer to me, as well as my other men at the back. I know they are trying to protect me, but there's nothing to fear. Alpha Gideon is a sma

    ~James~My head tilted towards Gideon. I stared at him straight in the eyes to see if he meant the words he uttered a while ago.My jaw tightened as I continued looking at him. It took me a minute before I was able to understand what he meant.“What did you just say, Gideon?” I asked in my warning tone. Gideon shook his head as if he couldn't believe to see my reaction. I know what he said, but I wanted to know if he was serious about it.“I know you have a sharp mind, James. You know what I mean, and we are talking about Emerald here. The woman you dumped like garbage just because of your fated mate. The woman whose life became terrible because of you. The woman… I took away from the forest to give her shelter, to give her a new hope, and to let her know that somebody still cares for her.”I was stunned. I never expected to hear all of these from Gideon, the demon wolf that everyone knew. If what he said was true that he took Emerald from the forest, there could be a payment for it.

    ~Emerald~“Everyone, prepare!”The demanding voice of the new head warrior suddenly echoes through my head. My attention turned to her and did what she said.Three days had already passed when Gideon assigned a new head warrior to train us. She's bold, fierce, strong, and professional unlike Selene. Her dedication towards her works helped all the newbies to catch up everything she wanted us to learn. I had learned a lot from her within three days during her leadership. There was already an improvement to me. I can feel it deep inside. I can tell it the way I moved. The Emerald who was known as weak she-wolf was getting bolder now. ‘You should take a rest, Emerald,’ Lilian uttered at the back of my head. I immediately shook my head to disagree. Resting is not in my vocabulary. I have to work hard to learn basic attacks, so I would have a skill to use if ever enemies would try to kill me. ‘I needed this, Lilian. I should not always depend on you. You are not always strong, especiall

    ~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
