~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~“You won't believe who's here!”“Oh, I heard that. I actually saw him earlier!”“I still can't believe that he was actually here in our pack. Alpha Gideon let him come here.” My heartbeat raced when I heard these words from the group of wolves I met on the way. They stopped talking when they noticed my presence that made my brows furrowed.I shook my head and continued walking. Alpha Gideon has a visitor and based on how the wolves described him, I know the visitor is not ordinary. He was powerful and important, and it's no longer my concern.I have no right to know who that visitor is and as long as my son and I are safe, that's all that matters to me the most.“I felt something unusual with that visitor thing, Emerald,” Lilian uttered.I stopped walking, my heart pounding so fast again. Lilian's instinct is strong. If she said something is wrong, there might be a possibility that it's true. I also could feel it just the way those wolves described the visitor.There were m
~Emerald~“What the f*ck are you doing here, James!?”I could no longer control myself anymore. My teeth gritted as I was screaming at James' direction. I didn't need to find him because I already found him on the field, talking to Gideon's beta.He turned his head at me, shocked written on his face. His mouth opened up, but I couldn't hear what he said because my mind and my heart were covered with my anger at him. Words would never be enough to describe how much I wanted to end his life. James, did many things to me in the past and killing him was in my mind at this point. Just before his men could stop me, I ran in his direction while holding the kitchen knife so tightly. No one expected me to come over to James. I used my knife to hit him in his left stomach. James didn't expect it and before he could stop me, I already stabbed him. My wolf, Lilian, wanted to take over, but I told her I can handle everything. His men came over and they captured me. They took the knife from my ha
~Emerald~I could feel my eyes darkening while looking at the man who ruined my life a year ago. A man who made my life terrible. The man who dared to risk my life and had the guts to abandon his child. I couldn't believe he had the face to show up with me.It's been a year ago. A year when I lived in darkness. A year full of tears, what ifs, and anger. Alpha James made my life almost like hell and I will never forgive him for that. No matter what he will do, the pain in my heart will never go away.I was gritting my teeth when I looked him straight in his eyes. “How could you say these things to me?”The look he was giving me was filled with regret. I can see it from his eyes. I can feel it from how he speaks to me, but it's already too late. He hurt me already. He ruined my life already and the life I was supposed to give to my son. James would never have me back, despite his efforts.“Emerald, you have to believe me. I mean the words that I had mentioned a while ago. Trust me, I wi
~Emerald~“F*ck!” I was stunned in my direction after realizing that the man I punched was actually Gideon.I panicked. “I…I am so sorry, Alpha Gideon. I didn't know it was you…”There was blood on the left side of Gideon's lips because of my hard punch. He didn't expect that coming attack, so he wasn't able to stop me. If I just knew that it's Gideon, I wouldn't do it. F*ck!“Do I look like a punching bag to your eyes?” Gideon asked, still covering his mouth. I grab his hand inside the cabin and let him sit on the couch.“I didn't know you're coming into my house. I thought…”Gideon didn't let me finish my words when he interrupted immediately.“You expected that it would be James, right?”A deep breath escaped out of my mouth from what he said. I looked at him deep into his eyes and saw the blank expression from his face. The words that James told me earlier flashes back into my head. He mentioned to me that Gideon allowed him to come here.I stood up from sitting next to him beca
~Emerald~After talking to Gideon, I packed my baby's stuff. I wanted to make sure that James would not find out about Jacob. I have to separate with my son just temporarily. Cassandra will take good care of Jacob, and she will bring him to her house. I will just go there secretly. It's better that my son is not with me to protect him from his dad.The next morning, everyone is getting ready. Alpha Gideon informed us that a visitor from the other pack would love to meet us. We made sure that our pack is accommodating and attractive before the visitors' arrival. James couldn't be seen. I have no idea where he is, which is better because I don't want my day to be ruined because of him.“What do you think about Gideon's words yesterday?”I stopped what I was doing because of Lilian's sudden question. My brows were furrowed. I couldn't understand what she was trying to mean, so I just shook my head.“What do you mean, Lilian?”Lilian just let out a deep breath. “Nah, don't think about it.
~Emerald~“F*ck! What did I do?”This is what I tell myself after leaving Gideon away. Lilian couldn't stop her laughter, which made me shake my head. I tried to forget about what happened by helping the worker in preparing the food and coffee for the visitor. I thought Alpha James was the visitor, but I found out they are not actually the same. There were important people from Gideon's ally pack. I insist on helping the maid by bringing the tea towards the visitors.As I arrived there, I had the chance to see those important visitors who came to visit Alpha Gideon's pack. I know the visitor. They once visited the Crescent Moon Pack, and this is the same man who I punched when he tried to disrespect me.“What the hell are you doing here!?” Nikolai, the bastard Alpha from the Moonlight Pack is the visitor whom I was referring to earlier. I couldn't forget his name. He disrespects me and tries to touch my legs.“Do you know her, Alpha Nikolai?” Gideon asked, looking at us confused. I
~Emerald~Fear crawls into my skin when I meet the incoming long claws of Nikolai's wolf. I just felt my heartbeat stopped from beating. The surroundings became gray, and I thought it would be my last breath. I thought I would die in this pervert's hands, but not until someone grabbed him away like a thing. An unexpectedly courageous man grabbed Nikolai's body and threw it away. My heart began to race when I slowly recognized who just saved my life.“James…” I uttered quietly. Alpha James' worried face met my gaze. I was still lying on the ground and still can't believe what just happened.“Are you alright, Emerald?” James' asked, still in his worried tone. I blinked as I was trying to digest everything that happened a while ago. Alpha Nikolai from the Moonlight Pack was trying to kill me. I was about to be scratched by his long claws, but suddenly, a strong man just came. He pulled Nikolai away and threw it away.It was Alpha James. He came to save me. He came on time before Nikol
~Emerald~A sharp claws suddenly buried Malverra's chest, causing her to be shocked. My hands covered my mouth upon witnessing what happened to Malverra. Her blood started streaming below, her body trembling.The next thing I know, Malverra fell to the ground and is now lifeless. This time, I was able to see the person behind Malverra's death, and it's no one, but Ares.Our eyes met, fixated for a minute, before he turned to James. I can feel my heart pounding so fast while looking at him. Ares has this strong appeal every time I see him with blood all over his hands.He looks no different from James when he kills. I didn't even expect that he's already at Malverra's back.“She's dead.” Ares declared, which made me feel a deep relief.I thought I would end up killing James as I have no more control over myself, but Ares came. He killed Malverra behind her back while she's dealing with me and after Malverra's death, I could already feel that I had escaped from her control already.I ca
~Emerald~I could feel my heart skipped upon hearing those words from Malverra. The moment she mentioned killing my husband and knowing that I am under her control just made everything clear to me.Malverra wanted me to end James' life and this has something to do with her control now.I wanted to run away. I wanted to scream to tell James what's happening to me, but I can't. Malverra is controlling my movement. I even wanted to check where James' is, but I couldn't move my head. Every movement I do depends on Malverra.“N-No, you can't do that, Malverra!” I exclaimed at her, but once again, she let out an evil laugh.She grabbed my chin and forced me to look at her deep into her eyes.“Yes, I can, and everything is possible with me. You kill your husband and that's an order from me!” Malverra responded.She moved away, and I just watched her until I noticed her taking my gun. My eyes widened when I saw my gun and then James appeared into my mind. I could even feel my heart pounding s
~Emerald~My eyes widened from what I heard towards Malverra. She just mentioned Beatrice, the woman whom I killed last time. I can't believe that Malverra is her sister.Upon hearing that, I tilted my head, while smirking.“You were Beatrice's sister,” I mumbled, and then Malverra smirked.“Yes, I am, and I'm here to avenge her death. I found out that you killed her and because of that, I will take your life as payment for her life!” Malverra yelled, which made me laugh.I shook my head, while crossing my arms. My eyes never leave her. I just don't want to turn away because every moment is important. Malverra looks desperate to end my life now.“Beatrice has to die because she made a mistake for us. She entered the territory to do something with me and I have to kill her.” I responded, and Malverra started shaking her head.It was also obvious from her reaction that she doesn't want to accept any explanation from me and there's no reason for me to explain everything that happened to
~Emerald~“All of you are now caught and no one is allowed to leave this area because I, the Alpha of this pack, have finally found out your group's intention for coming in here!”These are the words that came out from James' lips, which made me pull out my gun. Ares, and the warriors behind us entered the kitchen to surround the enemies.Alpha Nyx and his team are stunned upon what they learned. The expressions on their faces are just obvious, and they can't hide it from us.“Alpha James, what's going on?” Alpha Nyx uttered, pretending as if he had no idea about what's happening.I couldn't help but to smirk when I looked at him and then my eyes diverted to Malverra. She was already gritting her teeth, while her eyes darkened upon staring at me.“Come on, Folks! Stop pretending now because you have all been caught. Alpha James will not accuse all of you without proof.” I mumbled between my smirks.“I know it very well. You don't like us, Luna Emerald. I know that you will do this to
~Emerald~“What?”Shocked was written on my face after those words came out from James' lips. I looked at him, my eyes were asking for an explanation from him.James let out a sigh, his eyes narrowed as if he wanted to make sure that nobody will hear us.“I just found out the truth and our visitors are impostors. They are using the identities of the wolves living at the Ravager Pack.” James declared, making all of us gasp.My friends couldn't even hide the shock from their faces. They didn't expect the information they heard, and I know one thing for sure. My friends are about to panic with this news.“We have to deal with them as soon as possible, James. I don't want them to create a mess here!” I gritted my teeth after saying these words, and James nodded his head.He looked at Cassandra and then to Katie.“Levi, kindly bring them to the secret room. We have to keep them safe because I'm certain that they will use them against us when we confront the enemies.” James commanded his be
~Emerald~“I was looking for you, Luna Emerald.”The moment I heard that voice, I stood up from my seat. I turned my head at the back and there, I found Malverra. She was already smiling at us, but that smile doesn't look genuine to me.“Malverra.” I mumbled with my head held up high.“Who is she, Emerald?” Cassandra asked, her brows furrowed while looking at Malverra from head to toe.I let out a sigh while looking at Malverra. It's also obvious from her reaction that she's confused about the people around me.“This is Luna Malverra, the wife of the Alpha of the Ravager Pack, our visitors.” I uttered without turning my head away.The moment I uttered these words towards my friends, Malverra's smile widened. I could feel arrogance from how she looked at my friends.“They might be your assistance, Luna Emerald. I could say that Alpha James is treating you like a queen. He assigned two assistants for you.” Malverra responded by almost making my jaw drop to the ground.I never expected s
~Emerald~“W-What do you mean by Luna, Alpha James?"After a minute of silence, Alpha Nyx has finally spoken. He recovered from the shock already, but his team hasn't yet.James tilted his head after hearing Nyx's question. I looked at James, waiting for his response towards Alpha Nyx.“My wife can see an event, either it's from the future, past, or the present.” James responded curtly.I couldn't help but smirk upon watching all the wolves of the Ravager Pack. The reactions from their faces are still visible. They couldn't believe what they just learned, and when I looked at Malverra, I found her looking at me.A smile formed on her lips, but I knew for a second that it wasn't sincere. This made my blood boil, but I chose not to say a thing because of James' reminder to me.“I was surprised to know that Luna Emerald has a vision ability. No wonder she became your Luna, Alpha James,” Malverra uttered, which made me laugh.“It's not just because of the ability that I had, Luna Malverra
~Emerald~The moment we finished talking, James and I went back to where our visitors were. We already talked about what we need to do, and I have to trust James. He knows exactly what he's doing, and I don't have to question that.“What's your decision, Alpha James?” Alpha Nyx asked, his lips curled.I let out a silent sigh, while looking at Malverra. This woman really captured my attention. I could feel something mysterious about her and I know my instincts so well. I just hope that I was mistaken this time and that Malverra is not an enemy at all.“My wife and I already talked about it and we agreed. We would like to let all of you stay here for a week.” James declared, making Alpha Nyx and his wife smile at us in response.“That's great, Alpha James. I can't wait to talk to you about some important things that will benefit both our packs. I swear you will never regret the information I bring for you.” Nyx responded to James.James just listened to what Nyx had uttered and me as we
~Emerald~The words that Alpha Nyx had mentioned gave me a chilling reaction throughout my body. Having friends with that mysterious woman next to him doesn't feel right. I don't know, there's something with her that I should avoid.“I'm glad to meet Luna Emerald of the Crescent Moon Pack. I've heard so many things with you, and I'm dreaming of meeting you in person.” Malverra uttered, her lips suddenly widened when she smiled.She's beautiful, sophisticated, and well-mannered, but I don't like her vibes. However, I couldn't say this because she's not doing anything to me. I will keep whatever I felt with her deep within, not until she provokes me if ever.“It's also my pleasure to meet you, Luna Malverra. You are so welcome to our pack and actually all of you. Our pack is open to our ally pack as long as they don't dare to fight with us.” I remarked without hesitation.They suddenly fell into silence when I said those words and then Luna Malverra started chuckling.“Yes, of course. A
