~Emerald~“Of course I should be jealous. I'm your wife, James. Do you think I should be happy that women keep approaching you knowing that you are already married? If that's what you think about me, then so be it.”After I said these words to him, I walked away. James was shocked, making him unable to speak. He didn't follow me which is good because I don't want to talk to him right now.‘What's the drama, Emerald?’ Lilian asked at the back of my head.I shook my head, my lips curled into a playful smirk.‘I just want to test him, Lilian,’ I responded to my wolf.She furrowed her brows upon hearing what I had said. I know Lilian wondered what I meant about the word test.‘I think you don't need to do that to your husband, Emerald. You already know how much he loves you and don't be bothered about those girls. I am so sure that they can't reach your standard,’ Lilian answered, but I just shook my head.I understand Lilian's point but there's nothing we can do about it. James already h
~Emerald~Levi arrived in Cassandra's room, his face looked so worried as he looked at me. I can feel my heart pounding while waiting for whatever he would tell us.“Luna Emerald,” Levi uttered, making my heart pound so fast.I stood up from sitting on the floor to face him. Seeing the reaction from Levi, this tells me that something happened, and I hope James has nothing to do about it. I hope he's not involved in whatever Levi's reaction is right now.“L-Levi, what's wrong?” I stammered as I asked him these words.The beta took out a deep breath before he responded to me. I just clenched my face as I couldn't stop feeling nervous.“It's James,” Levi answered.I heard gasps coming from the three girls inside the room about the mention of the Alpha. My heart even skipped beating, tears started forming from my eyes as I started to overthink about James.I even tried to use my ability to see certain events, but it didn't work. Levi is the only person who can really tell me about what ha
~Emerald~“You're asking me if I had a suggestion about what you can do for me, Alpha James?”As I said these words to him, I can't stop smiling at James. The corners of his mouth lifted while looking back at me.“Yes, and I promise I will do it for you. It's just the two of us here. I asked this day only for the two of us, Emerald,” James responded.I bit my lower lips as he said these words to me. My eyes can't leave James and I can't still believe that he's doing this. He prepared this thing for us both.“I will tell you later about what I want. As of now, let's share these delicious foods on the table,” I muttered, looking at the table.The Alpha chuckled upon hearing what I had said to him. He took my hand and guided me to my seat. I bit my lower lip as we settled down in front of the table.James already put some food on my plate and I just allowed him to do that for me. I didn't complain and watched him instead.“I'm sorry if this is the only place I can give you for our date.
~Emerald~Our eyes turned at the door. A man entered and now sneered at us. Levi is not yet back, and we only have Christopher here, James' cousin.“There you are…”These words came out from the wolf's lips. Christopher stepped in front of us, acting as if he were protecting us.“I'll deal with him. He entered the wrong room,” Christopher uttered in his gritted teeth.I just looked at the intruder who entered the mansion and I wondered how he was able to come here without the guard's noticing or maybe, he's been watching the pack to see a perfect moment to enter in here.“I didn't come here for some random wolf,” The enemy said to Christopher that made our brows furrowed. Cassandra was already at Jacob and Katie's son, watching over them.It was just three of us in this room as Katie is on the bed asleep after drinking too much.“Well, you've got the wrong pack. We don't care about who you came in here. You are a threat and an enemy like you must go to hell!” Christopher responded.He
~Emerald~As I looked at James, I could feel the anger circulating around his body. His piercing eyes seemed to be killing the enemy in front of us. If only eyes can kill, I know our enemy is already cold.“You already know who I am, Alpha James. I am no longer wearing a mask. You have seen my face,” he answered.My fists clenched as I looked at the masked wolf who had attempted to kill my son. Even now, I still can't believe that he entered the pack.“Tsk, don't fool me, Idiot!” James exclaimed.My brows furrowed, a feeling of something towards James. It is as if he knows something is not right. I can even feel that there's also something wrong.“What? I am really the masked wolf, Alpha. I came here because I wanted to kill all of you!” He said again to us.My head tilted as his words began to sink in my head. Just the way he convinced us, something is not right. There might be something wrong with my vision, or it's really true, but what's wrong is the enemy who came in here.“Stop
~Emerald~I was left for words after hearing what James had uttered. The anger from his tone made me let out a deep breath. I can really feel his annoyance.“Emerald, where is he now?” We were suddenly interrupted when someone spoke behind us. I turned my head at the back and found Cassandra with Jacob in her hold. I immediately approached her and took Jacob from her.“He's dead, Cass. James killed him,” I responded to her. Cassandra felt relieved after I told her about it. Her face softened, and then her head turned at James.James approached me. He gives our son a kiss on his forehead and this time, I gave Jacob back to Cassandra. We still have to deal with what happened here.“Can you hold him for now, Cass?” I uttered toward my friend. She nodded her head and took Jacob from me.At this time, I turned my head at James who still looked so serious about what happened earlier. He was staring at nowhere, particularly to the border's direction. His men have already cleaned the mess be
~Emerald~I can feel my eyes widened when I heard those words from James. I never expected him to say that.“What the hell are you talking about, James?” I muttered to him.James furrowed his brows for a moment, and then he let out a deep sigh. He was still holding Jacob in his arms as he looked at me.“You heard me, Emerald. I want you to stay away from him. He's my friend, but I don't want you to be close with him. You didn't know him,” he responded.I couldn't help but shake my head, while the corner of my lips lifted as many thoughts kept flashing into my head. His actions tell me something.‘Your husband might get jealous of you talking to other men. That's what I understood from James,’ Lilian uttered inside my head.“Nah, I won't go to him. I don't even know Harold.”James nodded his head, a look of relief flashes to his face.“Good, 'cause I don't like the way he looked at you. He's an old friend of mine, but I can be a monster if they dare to touch what's mine.”After James u
~Emerald~The Alpha pinned me against the wall, his hands were on both sides of my head. I can feel my breathing stop as I look at him, confusion clouding my face.“J-James, what's wrong?” I asked him in my stammering voice.He doesn't smile and instead, he moves his face closer until the gap is just one inch away. I can feel his hot breath against my face and even though he was already my husband, I can still feel myself getting stunned with him every time that he's close to me.“Did I tell you to stay away from him?” He asked, my brows were furrowed as I looked at him.“Yes, you did, but I didn't approach him. We just met him here,” I responded.James let out a sigh. His face softened after realizing something. At this moment, he placed a kiss on my lips before letting me go.“I'm sorry if I become tough. I just don't want to see you with men around, but then I realized that you're already my wife. There's nothing I should be afraid of,” he uttered.My brows furrowed as I heard his
~Emerald~“You're overreacting, Emerald.”I was stunned when James mentioned these words to me with his cold expression. His words seemed to be piercing my heart. I just can't believe it and knowing that these words are coming from him, I felt disappointed.“You're accusing me of overreacting?” I mimic, my voice is as cold as the snow.James shut his eyes, trying to calm himself down. I can feel the frustration from his face just by how he looked at me.“Look, I'm sorry. I didn't intend to say that to you,” James uttered in a soft voice.I shook my head, stepping my feet backward as I prepared myself to leave.“If you're thinking of me as overreacting, then you just misinterpreted me. This is absolutely useless, James. Let's take a break for a moment. We wouldn't agree to each other thinking that neither of us were on good terms,” I muttered at James.He wanted to say something to me, when I turned my back away before he could even utter. Just the moment I turned my back away, I took
~Emerald~I continued walking my feet without looking back to James. He tried reaching me, but then Levi came, asking him for a word. I was relieved from Levi's sudden interruption, giving me time to think.At this moment, I decided to look for Cassandra and found her outside the mansion. She raised her head, worries evident on her face.“What happened?” Cassandra said, making me let out a deep breath.“I came to her room and it's true. My husband was there, and I caught them hugging. However, James and Althea explained to me that it was just a friendly hug…” I explained it to my best friend.Cassandra put Jacob back to his stroller, and then she looked at me deep into my eyes. I know what she would tell me.“A friendly hug?” She uttered, nodding her head as if something was already in her mind. “Are you sure that was just a friendly hug?”I gasped, hearing these words from Cassandra. I understand her point. She was just protecting me, but then I suddenly realized something.A deep an
~Emerald~“She knows the girl?”Levi nodded his head in response to me. I took out a deep breath, forcing a smile. Levi shouldn't think that I was affected by what I found out. And one more thing, I have nothing to be scared of.“Yes, Luna Emerald. Alpha James and Althea told us about it,” Levi replied. I smiled at Levi, nodding my head in response.“Great, thank you for telling me. I have to see them now because I wanted to check the girl's situation as well.” I turned away after saying this to Levi. He wasn't given the chance to speak as I left immediately before he could even say a word.My heart pounded so fast, thinking about her. I wondered how she and James even met.‘Maybe, they met in the human world. Knowing James before, he had travels that the pack didn't know,’ Lilian interrupted, making me pause in my tracks. I suddenly felt my legs trembling, my fists clenching when realization hit me after Lilian said those words to me.‘What if…’ I paused, struggling to even contin
~Emerald~I was stunned by Cassandra's question to me. My heart even started pounding, disbelief written to my face as I looked at her. Knowing my best friend, I know she's just worried about me, but I have trust in my husband.“I know your worries, Cass, but believe me it won't. James loved his son and he promised he would spend the rest of his life with me. I swear, he won't allow any girl to flirt with him,” I assured her.Cassandra took out a deep breath, a smile curved on her lips.“I'm sorry if I said these words to you. I just don't want something bad to happen to you. I don't want to see you getting hurt again, Emerald,” Cassandra uttered in her worried face.Seeing her reaction like that made me feel grateful in a way that I have such a friend who always thinks about me. The friendship that Cassandra and I had would always be forever.“I know, but don't worry about me. I can handle this one. My husband already knew what would happen to him if he dared to hurt us,” I mumbled,
~Emerald~“Help me! Help!”I grip the handle of the car's door as I hear a woman's scream outside. James immediately rushed out from the car to find her. I did follow him and in the middle of the road, there's a wounded woman coming over to us.My mouth widened when I felt something from her.“A human girl,” I mumbled, my eyes directly focused on her.In the distance, a group of men were coming. They were all smirking as they followed the wounded human girl, making me grit my teeth as I realized who they could be.“Christopher, take the girl in your car!” James commanded his cousin, and he listened immediately.At this point, James moved closer to me as we waited for the group of men coming into our direction.My brows furrowed, focusing my eyes on these human beings who got lost in our area. I don't know if they had an idea that this place was filled with wolves.“Where do you think you're taking her?”A man in the middle suddenly asked us this question. I tilted my head, as I notice
~Emerald~The way he grabbed my waist and took my lips before I could react, gave me so many emotions that I couldn't control. My cheeks turned red, my legs started trembling.I know there were wolves already looking at us, but as James started moving his lips, I already lost the will to decline. I just found myself, wrapping my hands around his neck.The kiss lasted for a minute, and both of us gasped for air as we let go of each other's mouth. James gave me a peck on my lips and when I realized what we did, I couldn't find the courage to face the wolves.However, we were suddenly interrupted when Christopher arrived. Behind him is a woman I wasn't familiar with.“I found her and the other prisoner of this pack. I have already allowed them to escape, while she's coming back with us,” Christopher explained, making me look at the woman.My brows furrowed as I saw familiarity from her. Her face looks familiar to me. It seems like I have already seen it to another person.‘That's Isabell
~Emerald~I swallowed hard, seeing these wolves surrounding me now. My heart pounded so fast, as I held my gun tightly.The wolves slowly stepped their feet near my direction, preparing themselves to attack me.‘Where the hell they come from!?’ Lilian exclaimed at the back of my head.I grit my teeth, eyes started to darken as I looked at them. If they dare to attack me now, I will make sure to kill them undoubtedly. My gun will kill all of them and if I lose my bullets, Lilian will kill them.‘I got your back, Emerald. Just watch your moves. They are numerous and James is not here. He's also busy with the other enemies!’ Lilian reminded me, making me nod my head in response.‘We can do it alone because we are not weak, Lilian. I will make sure to end them on my own, I swear!’ I muttered to her, and Lilian nodded her head in response.At this point, I put all of my focus to the enemies in front of me. They started hissing as if they wanted to eat me alive and the next thing that happe
~Emerald~A sound of a gun suddenly echoed in the area where we were all standing. I smelled the ash of a bullet, coming out from my gun, while the corners of my lips lifted.Yes, I was behind the sound of a gunshot. It came from me. I was the one who shot Beta Steven, but only towards his left arm.“F*ck!” Beta Steven screamed in pain, his left arm covered with blood.The warriors behind him were about to come after me, but James stepped forward, glaring at them.“Don't you dare step your f*cking feet near my wife or else, I will kill you at once!” James warned them.I bit my lower lips as I realized what I just did, but I have no regrets. The poor mate of Alpha Raven is what crosses my head.As James threatened those warriors, they returned to their area. Beta Steven started scolding them as if he really wanted the warriors to attack us. However, it never happened according to what he likes.“Is that all? You will just allow these enemies to step into our land and threaten us to our
~Emerald~“This is their pack, Alpha James.”I tilted my head when I heard Raven's voice as he spoke. James took my hand, making me turn my head to him.“We're finally here, so I want you to stay by my side. We didn't know what's waiting for us there,” James whispered to me.A smile formed on my lips as I noticed the worries from his reaction. James has been like this every time that we're facing a battle and I understand him for that. He's just worried about losing me.“Hey, stop worrying. Your gun would also be a great help for me later on. I will definitely use this, but it will be better if I let my wolf kill the enemies. She missed fighting,” I blurted to James.He couldn't help but shake his head while looking at me, but deep inside I know James trusted me. After all, I don't fear anything now because I know he's there for me. James will never allow something to happen to me and I won't allow something to happen to him as well.“Just be careful. Don't make me meddle in your figh
