~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~I gritted my teeth as annoyance began to cover me up. This woman is really testing my patience. I don't know if I can still control myself if she continues making my blood boil.“Regarding that, Maureen. I will assign somebody else to train you, and you cannot join us. This is an Alpha's matter,” James responded to her in his calmed tone.I decided to keep my mouth shut. At least for now I will choose to be quiet but if she dares to do something, I will not be considerate, no matter who she is.“But, why not, Alpha James? I don't want to be trained by someone else. You did agree that you will train me by yourself!” she uttered to him.I couldn't help but roll my eyes as I heard those words from Maureen. Just before I could speak, James already spoke up.“If you don't follow my rules, it's better if you leave this pack. I don't want someone who doesn't follow my orders. You can go back to your father's pack and tell him I will no longer be going to train you.”Everyone gasped
~Emerald~I furrowed my brows upon staring at Maureen. Her dangerous stare at me made me confused a little. “What's your problem?” I asked her in my annoying tone. She suddenly grabbed my hand and I looked at it. Seems like her hold wanted to break my bones.“You are the problem, Emerald. Why did you embarrass me in front of them, especially in front of Alpha James?” she asked in her cold tone. The corners of my lips lifted as I heard those words from her. She really has the face to show her face with me just to say these words, huh. ‘Seems like she was so annoyed from what happened earlier. This woman has another agenda aside from learning to become a qualified Alpha of her pack, Emerald,’ Lilian uttered to me at the back of my head. A smirk formed on my lips as I listened to her. ‘I'll make her regret then,’ I responded to her. Lilian just chuckled. She didn't speak anymore because I focused my attention back to Maureen. I just wanted to show her the mistake of messing with m
~Emerald~We suddenly heard knocks at the door. I turned my attention to it, my heart started pounding so fast while thinking about what's happening.James let go of me just to check someone who's knocking from the door. I followed him at the back and when he opened it, we found Levi.“Maureen's father is here, James,” Levi uttered to me.I furrowed my brows when I heard it from Levi.“Maureen's father?” I mumbled.They looked at me and both of them let out a sigh.“Yes, it's Maureen's father. I didn't expect he would come here but whatever the reason is, we have to face him.”As I heard these words from James, I couldn't help but look at him with confusion covering my face. I just couldn't believe that Maureen's father would come here this early.Is there anything he needed here?“Let's go, Alpha James. His reason might be so important,” Levi uttered to James.The Alpha nodded his head in response and asked Levi to leave first. After Levi left the room, he turned his head to me. I wa
~Emerald~“Dad, Alpha James is here!”My eyes turned at Maureen when she suddenly spoke after seeing us walking on the stairs. I slightly grit my teeth when I saw that smile of hers. It is filled with arrogance.Maureen's father raised his head. He looked at us and then our eyes met. I was suddenly stunned in my direction as events in my head started flashing.The face of Maureen's dad flashed into my head with Gideon talking. I have a vision, and it's really unexpected that I would be able to see it. My visions are unexpected, and I have no control over when or where it wants to show up.“What's wrong?” James whispered to me.I was back to my senses after I heard his voice, so I turned my head back to him. A smirk plays on my lips now after seeing that vision.“It was true. Maureen's father and Gideon were an alliance. I found them talking in my vision,” I answered him in my low voice.His jaw clenched after hearing it from me, his eyes turned to them.“That's great, and now we know
~James~“We found them, James.”I stood up from my seat when these words echoed inside the room. My heart pounded so fast as I looked at Levi.“Where are they, Levi?” I asked, making him let out a sigh.“Our spy is willing to cooperate with us. As of now, I need to prepare our men to go there, James. We have to save Emerald as soon as possible.” Levi responded.I nodded my head while my hands clenched in anger when I remembered Gideon's face. I just can't wait to see him. He took my wife and I swear I will make him pay for what he did to us.They will pay for putting my wife in danger. This time, I will make sure that my wife will come back to us, safely.“Prepare everything, Levi. We will go there and save Emerald whatever happens. We can't allow her to be with the enemies. They will use her against us!” I declared, making him nod his head.“I will make sure to do my best to rescue her, James, not because of you. This is Cassandra's request. She has been crying since last night with
~Emerald~I know something is just not right. My heart was telling me that I should follow my instincts. There's something wrong with Gideon's statement. Knowing that I have lost my memories about the past made me wonder.‘I should investigate this.’ I mumbled at the back of my head.My head suddenly turned at Gideon. He was still holding my hand as we kept on walking through the field, where other wolves were waiting for us. My heart pounded so fast, and I felt something unusual had happened.“Gideon,” I called his name, making him turn his head at me.“What's wrong?” He asked with his furrowed brows.I tilted my head as I kept looking at him. Staring at Gideon made me feel something very unusual. My heart was telling me that we can't trust him. It's telling me that Gideon is not my husband, and he's lying to me.It was him who made me lose my memories and not the attacker that he's telling me about. I don't know, but my instincts right now are just too strong.At this moment, I shou
~Emerald~I was looking at myself in the mirror while my mind wandered somewhere else. I just finished myself preparing for the presentation that Gideon wanted to do with me in front of the people.“Emerald,” I turned around when I heard that familiar voice.My brows furrowed when I saw Allison behind my back. And then, I just felt a strange reaction deep within when I saw her face. It's anger that I couldn't explain.“What are you doing here?” I responded to her, and she looked stunned upon seeing my reaction.“G-Gideon told me to get you. He's waiting outside,” Allison responded to me in her stammering tone.A smirk formed on my lips and crossed my arms. I looked at her, especially deep within her eyes. I wanted to read her expression.“Where's Beatrice? I thought she's going to accompany me outside,” I muttered, seriously.Allison let out a deep and heavy breath. She tried to maintain her composure, avoiding herself from flinching with my pierce look.“Beatrice was outside already.
~Emerald~“We've been married for three years?”Confusion covered my eyes as I looked into the face of a man in front of me. He's Gideon, and it's just so weird that I can only remember his face. There's no other faces in my head aside from Gideon and I felt this was so strange.Like, what just really happened to me? Why can't I remember anything, even the last thing I did last night?“Yes, we've been married for three years already. I know you have so many questions in your head and it's because you just had a surgery last night. Someone attacked you, and you have a severe wound to your head. To save you from dying, I have to let you have surgery.” Gideon explained to me.I couldn't help but furrow my brows while looking at him. There were still a lot of questions in my mind, but I can't speak it out. My head will ache if I push myself from thinking about it.“Is that so?” I mumbled, still not leaving my eyes from him.Gideon smiled at me. He walked closer to my bed and when he reach
~Emerald~I am losing hope now. I know no one will come to save me here because Gideon made sure that nobody can locate me. The connection that I have with James was no longer there. I couldn't talk to my wolf and I don't know why. I don't know how they manage to take everything from me but I know one thing for sure.They wanted to make sure that this time, I will be caught up. I have no more escape from what's destined to happen to me. If something happened, I could only promise one thing. I will make sure that I will find a way to escape from here.Gideon will not be able to control me for the rest of my life. I have to think of my son and those who trusted me.“Are you ready for your change, Emerald?”I lifted my head when I heard Gideon speak again. My teeth gritted as I met his gaze. He's just too evil, and I wanted to smash his face until he lost his breath right now.“Do whatever you want to do from me, Gideon, but here's what I can promise to you…” I uttered, taking a quick pa
~Emerald~I can still feel my eyes darkened as I keep staring at Allison's face. Her betrayal with me is unforgivable. I just can't imagine that my best friend would do this to me. If I escape from here, I swear she's the first one that I will punish.“The fact will not change that no one can ever beat James. He will save me here just so you know!” I blurted, making Allison let out a sigh.She just looked at me and when she's about to open her lips, someone suddenly speaks.“How would your man save you here, Emerald?”I just felt my blood boil upon seeing his face. Gideon has finally come and behind him were new faces that I've never met before. Their aura looks so dark, and I wouldn't be surprised with that.I am not surprised as well that he's here. Gideon is willing to do everything he could just to make us down.“I just can't believe the desperation you had, Gideon. You are willing to use those wolves who are connected to us just to get me. I can't believe you have to use force ju
~Emerald~The moment I opened my eyes, I found myself in a secured room. I tried floundering, hoping to escape from the leash that was tied to me. However, I just found myself exhausted after several tries.They made sure that the leash on me won't be easy to remove and that I can't escape from here. I couldn't help but grit my teeth thinking about what just happened. Allison, the childhood friend I trusted, suddenly betrayed me. I never expected that she could do this to me. She's just too good to pretend and I have trusted her. I trusted her because she's a friend. I thought she's real to me. This incident taught me so many life lessons that I should not trust someone that easily.And if there's a mistake that I've regretted now, it's about letting Allison fool me. I will not forgive her for what she did, and I know uncle Tobias won't let her daughter be lost. Allison is a kindhearted woman, and it's really shocking that she will betray me for a higher reward.“Emerald.” I suddenl
~James~“I really don't like how your wife acted, Alpha James!”Nora followed me inside the office. She can't accept that Emerald would do that to her.“Shut up, Nora! Just so you know, you are just one of my warriors and if it's not because of your father, you should not be here!”My blood is still boiling at Nora. She messed up with my wife and if it's not because of her father, I will throw her out. They are thankful that I need them now to strengthen the safety of the pack but if not, they will never be able to step in this pack.“Why don't you tell your wife that I am your ex-girlfriend? She didn't know, right?”I suddenly turned my head at Nora because of what she just said. My teeth gritted, eyes darkened.“Why would I do that? We're done before my wife came into the picture. I broke up with you and I don't need to tell my wife that you are my ex-girlfriend. You're just insane!”I shook my head upon saying these words to Nora. She even gritted her teeth after hearing my respons
~Emerald~After Allison and I talked about our plans, I went back to the room just to get my gun. No one noticed us as we left the mansion, and now we're on our way to the new hideout of Gideon.I just hope that Gideon was still there. We need to find him as soon as possible and I will not waste time. If I couldn't kill Gideon with the gun, then I will use my wolf form. This time, I will make sure to give my best. There is no way I will allow that asshole to escape once again.“Are we close to the hideout, Allison?” I asked her.Allison was leading the way because she knew where to find Gideon. She just turned around and looked at me for a second.“Don't worry, Emerald. We are already closed. Just prepare yourself in case we meet the enemies on our way,” Allison reminded me and I nodded my head to her.I didn't ask anything from her because I trusted Allison. She won't betray me after the help I did towards their pack. Allison knew what's right and what's wrong. She will never do some
