A PROMISE UNDER MOONLIGHT CHAPTER 43
Awake after two decades.James woke up suddenly and found himself in his room. “Bertha? Bertha!” he called out, but found that he was not in the cave.He got up and looked around. It was night time now. He had recognized her even though she had aged. He knew that face. The woman he had spent time with in that cave was his wife, Bertha. He recalled their experience. From what he saw, she hated him. She hated his family and avoided him. Why? He got up from the bed and walked out of his room into the moonlight. He was not sure how he returned home, if what he had gone through was real or not, but right now, he needed to meet his mother. He dashed through the forest, crossing the ground in mere seconds, bursting through his father’s house by the lake. The moment he burst through, he found that a full moon meeting was going on. It seemed he had forgotten. It was at that moment that he realized that he was standing there, clear headed under a full moon. He was not the only one who rea

The Hatred Of The PastJames stared at his mother so coldly, she could not help shivering.“Father was supposed to be mated to someone else but he mistakenly became your mate. You were a lone wolf coming into a large family. So, you felt inferior. Over the years, the family declined compared to others and many thought if the father had just taken the daughter of a large family as a mate, the family would be in a better state. All my brother’s mates were prominent from homes, but I brought back a lone Wolf. You hate my wife because she was a lone wolf like you. Just because you hate yourself, my mate has to pay the price?” James asked Lilith who went stiff at his words. He looked around the family with cold eyes. “Wolves travel in packs not for safety, but for our families' safety. But when something happened to me, my family was left to fend for themselves,” he said and many looked away.They were anxious at this point. If he really left, they would fall in standing. They were a stro

Followed Emerald met Matthew’s mother for the first time and she made quite the impression. The moment she walked in, she declared, “In Law, the Grey Family are our enemies.” Her words made Matthew sigh. “This is my mother, Nyx,” he introduced the dramatic woman. She looked too young to be his mother, but Emerald choked it up to being werewolves. Matthew expected his grandmother to be the reasonable one. When Emerald saw Amanda she exclaimed, “Grandma!” “Good girl, come give grandma a hug,” Amanda answered and Emerald’s heart warmed and she hurried over to hug the old woman. “This woman who has enemies is your mother-in-law, say hi,” Amanda introduced Nyx. “Call me mother,” Nyx said. “Mother,” Emerald answered and Nyx smiled widely. “Good girl,” she answered. “Hello, in law. I heard you were here and we came to visit,” Amanda said and gestured to Matthew to step forward. “This grandson of mine did wrong. He should have greeted you earlier. I did not teach him w

Mrs. ReevesThe receptionist’s eyes widened in surprise, and for a moment, Emerald thought she saw a flicker of doubt cross her features. But it was quickly replaced by a mask of indifference.“I’m sorry, ma’am, but I’ll need to verify that,” the receptionist said, her tone bordering on dismissive.Emerald reached into her purse and fumbled for her phone, her hands trembling with nerves. She quickly dialed Matthew’s number, praying that he would pick up.After several agonizing rings, Matthew’s voice came through the line, “Baby?” she heard him say the moment he answered.“Matthew, they are following me, the man is still outside,” she rattled in panic. Matthew, who was seated in his office, got up from his desk immediately.“Baby, where are you?” Matthew asked, dashing out of his office to the elevator.“In your building lobby,” she said, close to tears. His assistant saw him enter and followed in another elevator. “I’ll be right down,” he said firmly. “Calm down, Emerald. I’m coming

Consoling herMatthew let her sleep for a while before waking her to eat.“Baby, wake up and eat,” he said gently.To this, she shuffled and refused to get up, “I am sleeping,” she answered.“Lunch is here, baby,” he announced, a smile playing on his lips as she stirred.Emerald blinked up at him, her eyes momentarily clouded with sleep before clearing as she sat up, stretching her arms above her head. “Mmm, what did you order?”Matthew’s smile widened as he brandished the containers of Thai takeout. “Your favorite.”“How did you know it is my favorite?” she asked suspiciously. She did not recall ever telling him. “I know everything,” he joked.A small grin tugged at the corners of Emerald’s lips as she threw him a stubborn side glance with pouty lips. He took a seat next to her and prepared to eat.As they dug into their meal, Emerald’s phone buzzed with an incoming call. She glanced at the screen, a flicker of surprise crossing her features before she answered. “Hello?”The voice o

June Stoneheart.June had not just been rejected, she had been rejected in the worst possible way. Mason had rejected her so loudly, that the entire clan heard him. His voice echoed so far that her eyes rounded out in shock. He had used resonance to reject her?This was a skill most wolves used to echo their growl across their territory. Did he not know that by doing this, he was slapping her in the face? The next moment, her Aunt Helga barged into the room and stood between the two of them. She noticed that Aunt Lila stood at the doorway of the now opened door.“We have just had a happy event and would like some time alone as family. Please clan head leave,” Aunt Lila said.They both had a cold face. It was as though Mason suddenly realized the gravity of what he had done. He was the clan head, but the Stonehearts had lived in the clan longer than his family had.He had used resonance to reject her, truly hoping to embarrass her. He had always known she liked him and when she aske

The StrangerWhen the stranger heard her words, he looked down at himself.“Like this?” he asked and she paused. She was not stupid. Just because he was injured did not mean he was not dangerous.“Were you not just rejected? Now you are going to rush over to tell him about an intruder that will be gone by the time you bring people. How will you look?” he asked and she raised a brow.“You were here for a long time?” she asked, sitting on her bed. She could tell this man had a lot of energy and the injury meant nothing. If he wanted, he could snap her neck in seconds if she made the wrong move.She was not sure why, but she felt him emit an energy. It was so strong, she could almost see it. Was this an effect of being a white wolf?The moment she thought that, she panicked and reached for her head and only sighs in relief when she noticed that her hair was still securely wrapped away.He noticed her actions and wondered what she was so afraid of? Was her scarf coming off an issue? It w

Making PreparationsThe room was tense. Helga and Lila looked at those there as the next person spoke.“Important things happened tonight; June just came of age and was publicly rejected by the clan head. It could only be one of the two,” the old man asked with a frown.“It is both,” Lila said, stepping forward.“We have not come by our will, but the will of the Young Lady,” Helga said and the room became tense.They were both June's blood related Aunts and also her guide so calling her “the young lady” meant this was official.“And, what does the young lady want?” Carson asked.“We are leaving the Woodland Pack,” Lila answered and they frowned.“Why?” The old lady asked.“It can’t be that the young lady is embarrassed because of…” a young man said. He was the youngest of those there and looked to be no older than twenty three.“Master Seth!” the old lady scolded.“The young lady is not that muddle headed, Master Seth,” Lila answered.“She had her coming of age today and the progressi
