~Emerald~I froze in my direction as I heard what Gideon just said. He's looking at me intently, eyes flickering with amusement. I could feel my hands clenched tightly as my eyes were still looking at him.‘F*ck him!’ Lilian snaps as if she wanted to attack Gideon. I took a deep breath, calming myself down.“Okay, I'm willing to be your slave once you were able to capture that mysterious man and bring him to me,” I uttered to him, and his smirk widened. Gideon crossed his arms, studying me closely. I don't know, but I got really hooked about that mysterious man. There's something deep down that I wanted to know who he is. He killed Calvin.I was curious to find out his face under the hoodie jacket he's wearing. “Why do you look so interested in him, Emerald?” Gideon asked, looking so confused. A deep breath escapes from my throat, eyes staring at him. “I'm the Luna of this pack, remember? I also wanted to keep this pack's safety and that's the reason I want you to capture that mys
~Emerald~My heart is still aching from his death even though four months have passed. I couldn't move on. I couldn't erase him from my heart. I've always wanted to see him. I wanted him back in our life because it's hard.It's hard that he's not on our side. I couldn't imagine my life without him. My life is empty. I feel like I want to follow him if this heartache continues spreading across my body.“Emerald…”I immediately wiped my tears when I heard Cassandra’s voice. It's a new day of hoping for nothing again. Gideon is not back yet, which means he failed to find that mysterious guy who came here, and I felt relieved. Knowing that he's not back, and he couldn't find it, I wouldn't become his slave.“I-Is there anything you need, Cassandra?” I asked her, making my voice lively again. I just don't want her to worry again.“Are you crying?” Cassandra asked curiously.I bit my bottom lips, and then she walked in front of me to confirm if I was really crying. She let out a sigh, holdi
~Emerald~“Katie…”I clenched my fists, jaw tightens upon seeing her face. She was walking in my direction, wearing her blank expression. I grit my teeth, preparing myself in case she will do something to me. ‘Bitch!’ Lilian exclaimed, gritting her teeth. My eyes fixed on Katie until we had finally reached each other. “What the hell are you doing here?” I asked, my heart screaming of anger. “You're the reason for his death!” Katie exclaimed, moving her hand across my face. She just slapped me and it made my blood boil. I couldn't control myself anymore, so I slapped her back. Katie didn't avoid it. She was about to slap me again, but I immediately grabbed her hand before it landed on my cheek. “And you are the wrecker of our family. You are the reason James rejected me. You are…” I took a deep breath as anger consumed my heart. Katie's face softened, a tear rolling from her face. She pulled her hand from me, wiping the tears from her face. “I know you wouldn't believe me, Emer
~Emerald~“Are you sure you want to continue this?”I stopped walking for a moment when Lilian spoke up. A smirk written on my lips. “We're here, Lilian. There's no turning back,” I responded to her. She let out a deep breath and didn't speak again. I already know where the weapons Gideon is hiding. The warriors on our side told me the location of it. There are warriors guarding it, but I was able to convince them. I was lucky because those warriors didn't like the way Gideon led the pack and they wanted a change as well, so they let me in.“I don't know if I can take all the weapons. I'll pick the one which is easy to carry. We are running out of time, Lilian,” I uttered towards her. “Make sure to pick the most useful one,” she said, which made me nod my head in response to her.I kept going until I finally found the weapons that Gideon had been hiding underground. My mouth agape upon seeing the great number of different weapons inside.“F*ck, Gideon has been hiding all of these?
~Emerald~“What the hell are you doing, Katie!?”My voice rose, anger covered my face. Katie walked in my direction, her eyes pleading with me.“You have to think about the safety of these wolves, Emerald. They will die!” Katie replied. When others heard it, commotions started. I gritted my teeth, eyes darkening as I looked at her.“Why are you interfering in the battle? You're an enemy. You're the reason my marriage was ruined. Do you really want to die, Katie!?” I exclaimed to myself.She let out a sigh looking at me intently. Her expression last time is different now. It was like, I couldn't find the bitch from her.“Just trust me, Emerald. No one will win the battle. Everyone will die if you do not listen to me. This is not the time yet. Someone can beat Gideon and it's not them!” Katie responded to me. I tilted my head, eyes locked onto hers. Just the way she lets out these words, I could tell she was telling the truth. ‘I could feel it too, Emerald. This is not about Katie's
~James~I gripped the wine glass tightly, almost crushing it while waiting for them. My heart pounded so fast thinking that I will be about to see my family again. It's been a while already. I faked my death for about four months after Gideon threatened to kill me. He thought I'm dead, but he didn't know that I was actually alive, waiting for the perfect moment to put him in his place.“Alpha James,” Kyle entered my office. That makes me turn my head to him. My brows were furrowed as I laid my eyes into him, putting my glass wine on the table. I stood up from sitting and started walking in his direction. “Any news?” I asked in my worried tone. A smile flashes into Kyle's face as he looks at me. Seeing that expression from him, I feel relieved. “I received a call from our men. They are coming home with your son and Cassandra. Fortunately, they met her on the way as she tried to escape your son as what your wife had told her to do.”I nodded my head toward Kyle and said, “Good job,
~Emerald~Katie is the one who's driving the car and I have no idea where she's taking me, but one thing I know, we are heading away from the pack. We have finally escaped Gideon's pack and I felt relieved because we are not caught.Gideon's men didn't find us escaping. I just don't know what will happen if Gideon finds out about my plans. He's going to freak out if he finds out that we're missing.‘Stop thinking about him for now. You have to be happy because we're finally free!’ Lilian uttered, making me sigh. ‘There's nothing to celebrate, Lilian. We still have to go back in there and make Gideon pay. I have to give James justice and I have to fulfill my promise to the wolves who are a victim of Gideon,’ I responded to Lilian. ‘I know, and it's your chance to increase your allies because we're finally out of his pack. You can still find allies that are willing to help you fight against Gideon!’ I just let out a deep breath. I didn't respond to Lilian as my eyes were focused towa
~Emerald~“You're alive?” Tears fell to my cheeks again as I uttered those words. I could feel my body trembling as my eyes were at James.‘I-I can't believe it. Alpha James is actually alive!’ Lilian uttered in her shaking tone.I bit my bottom lips, trying to stop myself from crying. I'm afraid that if I blink, I wouldn't be able to see James. A part of me still couldn't believe that I would see him again.I thought he's dead because four months had already passed. He never showed up. I don't have a clue to prove that he's alive.“Yes, I'm alive, Emerald,” James responded. I could no longer stop myself. I hugged James again as my sniff continued to escape from my throat. His hands wrapped around my body and I even heard him sniffing.“Y-You have no idea how broke I am when I found out about your death. I really thought you left us. I-I—”James didn't allow me to finish what I'm about to say when he hugged me, and now he's cupping my face, asking me to look at him deep in his eyes.
