~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~“What do you want me to do, Emerald?” I stared at James, straight in the eyes, to know if he is determined to do my request. I am not good at reading, but the way he looked at me says it all.My smile widened, still looking at him. I also wanted to see the reaction to his face once I told him about what I wanted.“Emerald…” Gideon tried to get my attention, but I just glanced at him as an assurance that I know what I am doing. Gideon just let out a deep breath and did not stop me from what I wanted to do.I turned my head to James, who was still waiting for my response. A deep sigh escaped out of my throat before I spoke up.“I want you to kill someone for me,” I paused. “Someone who is an ass of this world.”I could hear gasps from the wolves around us. They couldn't believe as well that I would say this to James.‘You want what?’ Lilian couldn't believe the words that I had mentioned towards James. I didn't mind her as my attention was on James. He is not surprised by w
~Emerald~“Gideon, what do you mean?” I still couldn't believe what I heard from Gideon. He was also interested in killing Alpha Nikolai just for me, but…Why? Why did Gideon want to do this?‘Maybe the Alpha does not like the idea that James will kill Nikolai for you. He also wanted to prove to you that he can do it by himself.’My breath almost took away after Lilian spoke out. I was also thinking about what she meant, and my wolf might be correct. Gideon just didn't want James to use this request I made for James to come near me. “You surprised me, Gideon,” James uttered in disbelief. “I didn't expect that you would also be interested in bringing Nikolai's head. This is a request of Emerald for me. She doesn't tell you to do it for her.”I froze from my direction. The way James was saying these words, it's as if he wanted to trigger Gideon. I was nervous about where this would take the two of them. I am afraid that they might be fighting because of me.“I don't need Emerald to te
