~Emerald~Gideon succeeded on his plans of capturing all the wolves from the Crescent Moon Pack. Together with his warriors, they were able to bring all the powerless, innocent, and fragile wolves in the middle of the field. I was at Gideon's back, doing my best to be heartless. Yes, I'm trying to be heartless for my plans to work on. “Ah, this is so satisfying…” Gideon uttered while smirking. I could feel my fists clenched beneath as I looked at the faces of those wolves. The way they looked at me, it's as if they are begging me to do something. Their arrogance from earlier faded away after Gideon and his warriors captured all of them.“What do you want from us? You already succeeded in killing our Alpha, so you don't have to capture us!” One of the wolves couldn't stop himself from asking Gideon. I looked at Gideon to know what could be his reaction, but the way he smirked at the wolf, I know he's planning something.“Well…” Gideon starts walking his feet to those wolves in fron
~Emerald~Three months later, I have finally unraveled the true colors of Alpha Gideon. Those past months had been so tough for all of us, especially for me. Alpha Gideon and his way of leading all the werewolf world caused so much trouble for everyone. I can't believe he ruined the name that James has been taking good care of since he got the position and in just a blink of an eye, Gideon ruined it. That asshole was a pain in the ass.“Emerald?”I just came out of my cabin when I found Calvin coming my way. My brows were furrowed while looking at him. “What do you want?” I asked in my cold tone. Calvin let out a deep sigh. He put his hands in the pockets of his pants before he responded to me. Before that, he stared at me straight in the eyes, which made my brows furrowed. “I have something to tell you—”I rolled my eyes when Calvin dared to speak again. I already know what he wanted to tell me. “I am not interested. Just go back to Gideon because I have other things to do,” I w
~Emerald~Gideon let go of me when he suddenly heard knocks from the door. He glared at me, eyes fuming with anger.“You're coming with me tonight and if you dare to disobey me again, I promise I will never let you go once more!” Gideon exclaimed. He walked through the door and all I did was to look at him with my teeth gritted. I just felt my blood boiling and the urge to kill him was already in my heart. ‘Patience, Emerald… That man will die in our hands soon,’ Lilian uttered at the back of my head.I took a deep breath, holding the neck that Gideon choked earlier. My eyes started to darken when I remembered that devil face. ‘I don't know until when I can control my patience with that bastard. My life was almost living hell with him every day!’ I blurted, and my wolf just let out a sigh. ‘I know what you feel, but we have no choice. We need enough strength to escape from him!’ Lilian responded, and I just nodded my head. I left his office without trying to look for Gideon. I do
~Emerald~“We met Alpha James when he came here for you, Emerald. He comes here when he learns about what happened to Ava and how Gideon prohibits him from going to the village…”I looked at Emma when she suddenly spoke up. My heart pounded when I suddenly remembered James. I'm still suffering from his death and the pain seems hard to handle.“Alpha James promised us that he would do everything he could to get us out of here. He promised us that he would take us to his pack, but then I just found out that he's already dead…” Ava's voice filled with sadness when she responded to me. I clenched my fists, a deep breath escaped from my throat. “I'm sorry, but he's already dead. I can't even accept his death, but everything has reasons,” I muttered, tears flowing to my eyes again. Even Emma and Anthony also shed tears when they saw me crying. Seems that they could also feel the pain I have been keeping in my heart for how many months already. “Ava was dreaming to meet you because she w
~Emerald~I went back to my cabin without letting Ava accompany me. I'm worried that someone might see her with me. We have to keep from everyone that I met Gideon's sister. We've talked already, and I will see them again. I will definitely work with them to get rid of Gideon.“Where have you been?” I paused from walking when I heard that familiar voice of a man. Thankfully, I was already in front of my cabin and was about to go inside when I heard someone at the back. “What do you want?” I asked, my voice is as cold as ice. I turned at him and saw Calvin, crossing his arms. He looks confused.“Just answer my question, Emerald. Where have you been?” Calvin said, and that made me laugh. “You're not my husband for me to tell you everything about what I did. Just so you know, we're not friends, so better know your place, okay?” Calvin sighed, still looking at me. “I don't know if I can still protect you, Emerald. You have no idea how Gideon wants you, but I did all my best to protec
~Emerald~“My wife is so gorgeous!” These are the words that escaped from Gideon's mouth after I came inside the car, sitting next to him. I rolled my eyes and said, “What gathering are we attending tonight?” Gideon smirked, suddenly playing with my hair with his fingers. I just felt my hands beneath clenching because of him. ‘Calm down, Emerald. Don't allow him to provoke you. It's part of his plan!’ Lilian reminded me. I took a deep breath and followed her advice because I realized that this might be one of Gideon's tactics. He knew I hated him, so he was trying to provoke me to explode. “You will know later,” Gideon responded to me. The car started running, and we focused our attention on the road. I just felt my body freeze, not wanting to move, but Gideon noticed it. “Why are you so scared of me? Have you forgotten the kiss that we shared twice before?” Gideon said. I gritted my teeth silently and chose to keep my mouth shut; however, it made him even more mad. He pulled
~Emerald~I was so disappointed because I haven't found him. My heart was still hoping that he's alive, and he will come back for us. I still can't accept his death even though months have passed already.“Let's go back to the table,” Calvin arrived, holding my hand. I looked at him and I couldn't stop rolling my eyes. “Let me go!” Calvin sighed, and followed me. His eyes were still staring at me as if he's trying to read my reaction. I just hope that he won't notice that I was crying earlier. “You're still hoping to see him, aren't you?” Calvin uttered, which made me gasp. A smile of bitterness formed on my lips as I looked at him and said, “It's no longer needed. James is dead and there's no way he would come back to me.”I walked away and returned to our table. Calvin followed me there. He occupied the empty seat in front of me. “What if Alpha James is alive?” My mouth widened from what Calvin had told me. I could feel my heart pounding so fast, a flash of hope appeared in my
~Emerald~We are on our way back to the pack. Gideon will be staying in the pack to where the gathering was held. He asked Calvin to bring me home, and we grabbed this opportunity to meet his colleagues. I just can't wait to meet them and see if we could fight back against Gideon.“I know they can't wait to meet you, Emerald. Those warriors are loyal to Alpha James, and they still consider him as the Alpha King. They hated Gideon and the way he ruled the pack,” Calvin explained to me, so I nodded my head to him. My eyes were at the window while listening to Calvin. I took out a deep breath, turning my head to him.“Are you not worried that Gideon might find out what you're doing?” I asked, confusion was written on my face. He let out a sigh without glancing at me.“Yes, I am, but this is not me, Emerald. I am not a traitor. If it's really not because of my sister, I would never have followed him. James is my Alpha King and I will only work for him.” I looked at Calvin trying my bes
