~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
