~Emerald~I look closely to the warriors that Calvin has been recruited to join us in a battle against Gideon. My head tilted above, a smile formed on my lips.“Gideon still has a lot of his men, especially his armies. If we can convince half of them, I know that we have the chance to win the battle, but…” I paused, still looking at them. “We still have to work closely on how we are going to beat Gideon, but I'll work on that.” The warriors stared at each other for a moment before they nodded their heads to agree with me. “Don't worry, Luna Emerald. We will do our best to find more alliances to join our team. If we have many armies, Gideon couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't fight all of us together because we are just one!”I nodded my head towards them. It's really great that I met them. Knowing that I already have an alliance against Gideon, rays of hope appear in my heart. I know that I will get justice for James soon. “I will make sure to use my position to convince the
~Emerald~I woke up early in the morning not because of my will, but because of Cassandra's continuous knock at the door. I glance at Jacob, and he's still sleeping in his crib, so I open the door and Cassandra's worried face meets me against the door. “What happened?” I asked, brows were furrowed. Cassandra pulled me out from the door, and she brought me to the living area. Sadness and worries are evident on her face. I couldn't help but be nervous with her reaction. “You wouldn't believe the information I've gotten, Emerald!” Cassandra uttered. I stared at her, feeling confused about what she meant.“Tell me what you found out, Cass. You're scaring me,” I mumbled. A heavy sigh escaped from her throat. “Calvin is dead.”I stepped back as these words escaped from Cassandra's mouth. My heart skipped, body trembling in disbelief. “W-What did you say?” Stuttering, I asked her directly, staring into her eyes. Cassandra looked at me in her worried face and said, “He was found dead
~Emerald~“You are pregnant, Luna Emerald.”My heart beats so fast again when I remember these words from the pack doctor. She just informed me about my pregnancy. A pregnancy that I can't wait to tell my husband about.Alpha James, the new Alpha King of Crescent Moon Pack was my husband. We got married almost a year ago and now I could still recall that very moment when my life had changed. It was just a forced marriage. We both agreed on the name of our packs.As time goes by, I have formed feelings for him. A feeling that I know I am scared of telling him. James and I were not real mates. He hasn't found his real mate yet. We have agreed that once he finds her, he will leave me. He would reject our marriage and I can have my freedom.I agreed at first, but after a year of being together, I have learned that I can't lose him. I can't give him to anyone, especially now that he will become a father to our child. He has no idea about my pregnancy and I can't wait to tell him about it.
~Emerald~On that same evening, everyone was called to introduce the newly found mate of Alpha James. This would be so painful for me to think that my husband of almost a year, the father of my child will abandon me for his newly found mate. But what can I do about it? Even though it's painful, I have to face this. I have to face them and show everyone what I've got for Alpha James to consider me. The child was my last hope for Alpha James to keep me. Everyone will know the child that I was carrying tonight when Alpha James introduced his mate in front of the wolves.“Are you sure you have to do this?”My wolf, Lilian, spoke through my head. I nodded my head and looked at myself in the mirror for the last time before going to the venue.“I will do this for my child.” Lilian just takes out a deep sigh. She didn't speak anymore as I left the room to follow everyone at the venue.It feels so hard to step my legs with my body trembling. My tears were about to streamed down once again bu
“I, the Alpha King of this pack, reject you, Emerald Howard as my wife. Therefore, Katie, my fated mate will replace your position as my wife and the Luna of this pack.”Everyone listened as the rejection began. I was stunned in my direction. I wanted to leave and run away but my legs were paralyzed. My eyes don't want to leave Alpha James as he rejected me in front of everyone, in front of the wolves I used to love and served for many years.He continued. “With the power vested upon me, my decision is irrevocable.” After I heard those words from my husband, I pushed myself to stand up even though I am still in pain. Tears kept on falling from my eyes as I walked near them. I don't care what they will think of me. I don't care what Alpha James will do to me because what's important for me is I have done something to keep him. My legs folded as I kneeled in front of them. Commotions happened because of what I did. Alpha James and his mate, Katie were staring at me.“Please, don't do
~Emerald~Being desperate wasn't in my vocabulary but thinking about losing the man I love and losing the father of my child, I am willing to be one. I can sacrifice everything if it means bringing my family back. I won't let anyone ruin the family I cared about. I will not hesitate to do everything I could just to stop those who dared to ruin the family I built.Today, I woke up so early despite the pain I went through last night. Alpha James didn't throw me away from his Mansion but we're no longer living in the same room. Katie was with him all night and thinking about them made me hurt so badly.“What's your plan now?”I was walking the hall when my wolf, Lilian, spoke up. I let out a deep sigh and wiped the tears from my eyes as it started streaming down again.“I don't know, Lilian…” I uttered, almost breaking again. “I don't know what else to do, but let's see.”I heard my wolf let out a sigh at the back of my head. She didn't say anything because she already knew me. Lilian do
~Emerald~Alpha James grasped my arm and he began dragging me out of the house. I wasn't able to speak up again because of what he did. He pushed me outside, making me fall to the ground.“And you really think you can fool me again?”I cried. I can't believe James to be this heartless. He didn't believe me. He thought I was lying but I will not do that to him.“I am not lying to you, James. I am carrying your child and you have to believe me, please…” I begged again, but James was anxious.He pointed his finger at me, his face covered with anger now. I can see it based on how he looked at me. “I don't love you, Emerald. I don't want you in my life. You better leave the pack or else I will imprison you in the dungeon for disobeying the rule of the Alpha King. You should be thankful that I still consider you as my wife. I still consider our memories together that's why I let you stay after I rejected you but what you did to my mate made me think that you should be thrown out here.” Ja
~Emerald~It was Alpha Gideon. He was Alpha James' step-brother. The Alpha who was also feared by many, but has no effect on Alpha James. I was still in shock, knowing that he arrived at exactly where I was about to die. He rescued me before these evils succeeded in killing me.“Why did my brother want to kill you?” His deep baritone voice sent shivers through my body. I gulped, and couldn't form even a single word. Despite that, I still try my best to speak. “A-Alpha James wanted to kill me because he finally found his mate. He…He threw me out of the pack,” I uttered in between tears. The things that happened to me from earlier were still fresh in my head. I don't know how to move on to this. I don't know how to forget all of these. Everything James did to me, it's stabbing my heart a million times.Alpha Gideon who just heard my words tilted his head. He crossed his arms, still looking at me.“Why would my step-brother do that to you?” He asked in his cold voice. I bit my bottom
