~James~I turned back my head at Alpha Sebastian, and now he's busy playing with Jacob. The smile on his face as he held his grandson made me feel a wave of happiness. Never did I imagine that he would still meet his grandson. Alpha Sebastian survived his kidnappers, and now he's back to us.“Emerald.”I was back to my senses when I heard James' voice. He was already at the back, looking at me in his furrowed brows.“J-James…” I stuttered when I remembered what his father told me earlier.After I realized everything that Alpha Sebastian had told me, I confirmed that he really has a sickness. I have this feeling that he's enduring something deep inside and this worries me.I don't know how to tell James. Alpha Sebastian asked me earlier that I should not tell his son about it, but my conscience can't.“I saw you talking to dad. What did he say?” He asked me.I gasped as these words escaped from his mouth. I took a glance at Alpha Sebastian, and he's still busy playing with Jacob.A dee
~Emerald~My head suddenly ached when I pushed myself to remember it. I don't understand anything about my reason for pushing myself to remember Alpha Casper. The more I stared at him, it felt like I could recognize him.“What's wrong, Luna Emerald?” Casper asked, making me stunned.I turned my head at James, and he looked bothered by what I acted. I gulped a little, while shaking my head.“Nothing's wrong, Alpha Casper. I just felt dizzy after my vision showed me something earlier,” I responded, and he nodded his head.Even though he has already gotten a response to me, it doesn't prevent him from looking at me. James suddenly wrapped his hand around my waist and because of that, I diverted my attention back to him.“Are you alright?” He asked, almost whispering.I let out a deep and heavy breath before responding to him.“I'm fine, don't worry.” I responded, and he nodded his head.At this point, James faces them back. He asked them to rest for a moment and will resume the conversat
~Emerald~“You are pregnant, Luna Emerald.”My heart beats so fast again when I remember these words from the pack doctor. She just informed me about my pregnancy. A pregnancy that I can't wait to tell my husband about.Alpha James, the new Alpha King of Crescent Moon Pack was my husband. We got married almost a year ago and now I could still recall that very moment when my life had changed. It was just a forced marriage. We both agreed on the name of our packs.As time goes by, I have formed feelings for him. A feeling that I know I am scared of telling him. James and I were not real mates. He hasn't found his real mate yet. We have agreed that once he finds her, he will leave me. He would reject our marriage and I can have my freedom.I agreed at first, but after a year of being together, I have learned that I can't lose him. I can't give him to anyone, especially now that he will become a father to our child. He has no idea about my pregnancy and I can't wait to tell him about it.
~Emerald~On that same evening, everyone was called to introduce the newly found mate of Alpha James. This would be so painful for me to think that my husband of almost a year, the father of my child will abandon me for his newly found mate. But what can I do about it? Even though it's painful, I have to face this. I have to face them and show everyone what I've got for Alpha James to consider me. The child was my last hope for Alpha James to keep me. Everyone will know the child that I was carrying tonight when Alpha James introduced his mate in front of the wolves.“Are you sure you have to do this?”My wolf, Lilian, spoke through my head. I nodded my head and looked at myself in the mirror for the last time before going to the venue.“I will do this for my child.” Lilian just takes out a deep sigh. She didn't speak anymore as I left the room to follow everyone at the venue.It feels so hard to step my legs with my body trembling. My tears were about to streamed down once again bu
“I, the Alpha King of this pack, reject you, Emerald Howard as my wife. Therefore, Katie, my fated mate will replace your position as my wife and the Luna of this pack.”Everyone listened as the rejection began. I was stunned in my direction. I wanted to leave and run away but my legs were paralyzed. My eyes don't want to leave Alpha James as he rejected me in front of everyone, in front of the wolves I used to love and served for many years.He continued. “With the power vested upon me, my decision is irrevocable.” After I heard those words from my husband, I pushed myself to stand up even though I am still in pain. Tears kept on falling from my eyes as I walked near them. I don't care what they will think of me. I don't care what Alpha James will do to me because what's important for me is I have done something to keep him. My legs folded as I kneeled in front of them. Commotions happened because of what I did. Alpha James and his mate, Katie were staring at me.“Please, don't do
~Emerald~Being desperate wasn't in my vocabulary but thinking about losing the man I love and losing the father of my child, I am willing to be one. I can sacrifice everything if it means bringing my family back. I won't let anyone ruin the family I cared about. I will not hesitate to do everything I could just to stop those who dared to ruin the family I built.Today, I woke up so early despite the pain I went through last night. Alpha James didn't throw me away from his Mansion but we're no longer living in the same room. Katie was with him all night and thinking about them made me hurt so badly.“What's your plan now?”I was walking the hall when my wolf, Lilian, spoke up. I let out a deep sigh and wiped the tears from my eyes as it started streaming down again.“I don't know, Lilian…” I uttered, almost breaking again. “I don't know what else to do, but let's see.”I heard my wolf let out a sigh at the back of my head. She didn't say anything because she already knew me. Lilian do
~Emerald~Alpha James grasped my arm and he began dragging me out of the house. I wasn't able to speak up again because of what he did. He pushed me outside, making me fall to the ground.“And you really think you can fool me again?”I cried. I can't believe James to be this heartless. He didn't believe me. He thought I was lying but I will not do that to him.“I am not lying to you, James. I am carrying your child and you have to believe me, please…” I begged again, but James was anxious.He pointed his finger at me, his face covered with anger now. I can see it based on how he looked at me. “I don't love you, Emerald. I don't want you in my life. You better leave the pack or else I will imprison you in the dungeon for disobeying the rule of the Alpha King. You should be thankful that I still consider you as my wife. I still consider our memories together that's why I let you stay after I rejected you but what you did to my mate made me think that you should be thrown out here.” Ja
~Emerald~It was Alpha Gideon. He was Alpha James' step-brother. The Alpha who was also feared by many, but has no effect on Alpha James. I was still in shock, knowing that he arrived at exactly where I was about to die. He rescued me before these evils succeeded in killing me.“Why did my brother want to kill you?” His deep baritone voice sent shivers through my body. I gulped, and couldn't form even a single word. Despite that, I still try my best to speak. “A-Alpha James wanted to kill me because he finally found his mate. He…He threw me out of the pack,” I uttered in between tears. The things that happened to me from earlier were still fresh in my head. I don't know how to move on to this. I don't know how to forget all of these. Everything James did to me, it's stabbing my heart a million times.Alpha Gideon who just heard my words tilted his head. He crossed his arms, still looking at me.“Why would my step-brother do that to you?” He asked in his cold voice. I bit my bottom
~Emerald~My head suddenly ached when I pushed myself to remember it. I don't understand anything about my reason for pushing myself to remember Alpha Casper. The more I stared at him, it felt like I could recognize him.“What's wrong, Luna Emerald?” Casper asked, making me stunned.I turned my head at James, and he looked bothered by what I acted. I gulped a little, while shaking my head.“Nothing's wrong, Alpha Casper.

~James~I turned back my head at Alpha Sebastian, and now he's busy playing with Jacob. The smile on his face as he held his grandson made me feel a wave of happiness. Never did I imagine that he would still meet his grandson. Alpha Sebastian survived his kidnappers, and now he's back to us.“Emerald.”I was back to my senses when I heard James' voice. He was already at the back, looking at me in his furrowed brows.“J-James…” I stuttered when I remembered what his father told me earlier.After I realized everything that Alpha Sebastian had told me, I confirmed that he really has a sickness.

~Emerald~It seemed like my breath froze as I looked at Alpha Sebastian. His eyes seem difficult to read and with that, I realized, James is like his dad. I wouldn't be surprised where he has gotten his personality.“I-It was my honor to meet you, Alpha Sebastian. I am so happy that you are finally reunited with James. You have no idea how he wanted to see you.” I responded, my voice almost cracked.I got nervous with his presence. I've never had the chance to speak to him before, and I was worried that he might not like me knowing that he heard numerous things about me.“I couldn't imagine the pain he went through all these years without me. I made a horrible mistake of trusting somebody, which causes more trouble, Emerald,” Alpha Sebastian uttered, making me stunned.These are not the words I have expected to hear from him. I thought he's going to say mean things to me, but then I was surprised. Alpha Sebastian started talking to me about what he did.‘This is a good sign that his f
~Emerald~“I don't want to say this, Alpha James, but we helped your father because we wanted you to help us back…”I couldn't help but sneered as these words escaped from Alpha Casper. My impression of them started to disappear when he began to admit their real purpose of helping Alpha Sebastian.“What help do you want from us, Alpha Casper?” James asked, his brows furrowed while looking at him.“We found out that you're dealing with Gideon. He killed our parents when we were still young.” Casper replied.I stood up straight when I heard Casper's response. The annoyance in my heart disappeared when I heard his side and my heart tightened upon finding out that Gideon's name was mentioned again.That Alpha was truly a pain in the ass. So many wolves wanted him dead, but nobody could kill him instead of James.“They already told me about what happened to their parents, James. Gideon killed them, and they wanted to help us beat him.” Alpha Sebastian interrupted.James nodded his head. Hi
~Emerald~‘Let's go back, Emerald. It's too dangerous for you to follow James!’Lilian was doing her best to convinced to go back to where others were. We are already running in the woods hoping to find James. I don't know where he ran. James' reflexes were far too fast.Therefore, I decided to stop breathing. I was chasing my breath, my hands were both on my knees.“Where are you, James?” I mumbled, while narrowing my eyes around the area.The trees in this area were so tall that the moon was not enough to light the way. It was so dark and there was no hint of somebody roaming around.But a minute later, I was stunned in my direction when I heard a voice from the back.“They're gone.”I was about to attack him when he immediately stopped my hand before it landed on him. My brows furrowed when I saw James.“James?” I muttered, while looking at him carefully.I just wanted to make sure that it was James and not a shape-shifter. The way his brows furrowed while looking at me, and the co
~Emerald~After changing our clothes, James and I decided to leave. We checked the situation of the pack and confirmed that we are already safe from the shape-shifters. I also have the chance to talk to Cassandra about taking good care of James as we are about to leave to attack the place of the shape-shifters.At this moment, we are only waiting for any information about Christopher, and then he finally arrived after an hour. Katie immediately approached him, making me smile.This woman has fallen deeply to Christopher. I could still remember her anger at Christopher before.“What are you smiling at?”I was stunned when I heard James speak at the back. When I turned around, I saw him furrowing his brows.“Nothing.” I replied curtly, and it made him chuckle.He took my hands and pressed it while looking at me straight in my eyes. As he does that, I also can't avoid looking at him.“And now that we know the hideout of the shape-shifters, we are going to get rid of them. I just want you
~Emerald~As I stood up from the couch, James did the same thing. He stopped me by holding my hand, taking out a deep and heavy sigh.“I wasn't hiding anything from you, Emerald. I just have to hide it because we're still in the field. The plan will be destroyed. Levi just told me about it. They planned it when they were still hostages of the shape-shifters.” James explained to me, his facial expression looks convincing.I let out a sigh and now calmed down. These explanations from him were already enough for me to believe him. It was Levi and Christopher's plan after all.“I just don't want you to hide anything from me, James. I need to know everything you planned.” I muttered, and he smiled.“I promised I will give you everything.”I smiled at James, and he grabbed my waist. He's about to kiss me when someone interrupts our moment.“Alpha James, we have visitors.” Levi said, which made me look at him confused.“Visitors?” I mumbled, and Levi turned his attention to me.“It was the h
~Emerald~“I will kill you, Asshole!”I climbed to his direction and never hesitated to attack the shape-shifter, which is Stella's son. His mother did horrible things to us. She used a spell on James and I lost my child because of how she controlled my husband's mind to hurt me.My heart was covered with anger and as I attacked him, I felt very satisfied. I wanted to kill him right now and right here, but James stopped me. He never allowed me to finish his life because he was still useful to our plan of saving Christopher. The Moon Goddess knew how much I wanted to end his life, but I still consider James' request. We still have to save Christopher and if we killed this idiot, we can't rescue him anymore.“Baby, you have to calm down. Don't let your emotions overpower you. I know how you wanted to kill him and that's what I felt now, but I have to control myself. I would be satisfied if we could kill them all at once. Don't you want that?” As James whispered these words to me, I ca
~Emerald~As James uttered these words to me, I can't help but to narrow my eyes to the surroundings. I was trying to find out whom he meant.“I-I thought we already killed all the shape-shifters,” I mumbled in my low tone. James turned his head at me and sighs.“Nah, we didn't. There were still some shape-shifters, but we will make sure to end them as soon as possible. I was so mad at them. They are the reason for your miscarriage and I will make sure to burn them in hell!” James blurted in his cold tone. Every word he let out, I could feel his rage at them. I know he's so mad at what happened to him. A shape-shifter did use a spell on him knowing that he's an Alpha King, and he won't allow that he couldn't punish them.“What should we do now?” I asked, making sure that no one would hear us.James stared at me, and then the left corner of his lips lifted. I gulped from what he did, while my heart pounded so fast.“I will handle them.” He replied curtly.I furrowed my brows and aske
