~Emerald~James doesn't have a choice but to agree to Casper after I confirm. He agreed to stroll the pack that his father stayed with before we went back to our pack.After talking to Alpha Casper, James and I returned to our room. We lay on the bed and James told me to sleep. He never leaves my side until I fall asleep. James' presence really helped me to relax. I have forgotten everything that happened that day.The next morning, James woke me up. We took our shower together and left the room to start the day within Casper's pack.James was holding my hand as we walked the way out of Casper's mansion. The moment I stepped my feet outside the door, I found myself amazed from what I saw.“This pack looks wonderful as well, James,” I mumbled to him.“Tsk. Our pack still looks better and more powerful.” He responded.I just shook my head and didn't mind what he said. We just continued walking until we found Emily and Alpha Casper coming into our direction. Emily is smiling already, whi
~Emerald~I can feel piercing eyes on me, but I didn't mind them. My attention was with Ellie to know her reaction.After I asked that question to Ellie, she started smirking. It even took her a minute before she responded.“Well, I just have one plan towards the Alpha King. I will just offer myself to him and I know he will not say no to it. I have a nice body and all the male wolves in our pack have been dreaming to touch it,” Ellie muttered in confidence.When I heard what she said, I could feel my teeth gritted, while my hands clenched in annoyance. She looked overconfident when she uttered those words at me.This woman has no idea that she was talking to the wife of the Alpha King.“Did you know that the Alpha King has a wife?” I mumbled, and because of what I had said, James pinched my arm.I just glared at him and he sighed. He's trying to stop me from fighting Ellie, but I won't back out. I will just teach this woman a lesson to be cautious on everything she wants to say.“Oh
~Emerald~My eyes were still on Casper's visitors. I don't want to move my attention away because I want to see what could be their reactions when they found out that James is really the Alpha King. They don't believe Casper's words.I know this is difficult to believe because they haven't met the Alpha King yet, and I understand that, but I won't tolerate what Ellie had uttered from earlier.“Don't worry, Casper. We know what we are doing, and we're popular for doing deals, don't we?” Alpha Maximo responded to Casper.James let out a soft chuckle and I know because he can't believe in them. He never expected to find out that nobody did recognize him, and now I was thinking about how Casper's visitors will find out about us.“How will you confirm it?”They turned their attention to James when he finally decided to intervene. I just took a glance at James because I focused my eyes back at Ellie.I was guessing about what they will do to confirm that the wolf in front of them is actuall
~Emerald~“You cheated!”I suddenly turned my head at Joyce when she shouted those words. My mouth widened at her in disbelief.“Watch your words, Joyce! You are talking to the Alpha King!” Casper reminded her, but she shook her head.She was gritting her teeth as she looked at us, anger filled her eyes. Ellie, on the other hand, was looking at me dangerously.That kind of look, I know there's something playing in her mind and I need to prepare that. I can already sense that they will do something very unlikely. I know these wolves won't accept defeat and my instincts earlier are right.“We can't accept this, Casper! That man cheated my father. He's not the Alpha King. He can't be the Alpha King!” Joyce continued shouting.James didn't say anything to her. He just remained standing while looking at her, but I can already feel what's in his heart. James wanted to kill her, but we can't do that. There's no way you can hurt someone without valid reason.“I keep saying it since earlier th
~Emerald~Ellie ran in front of Alpha James. She suddenly wrapped her hands around her neck and was about to kiss my husband when James stopped her.I suddenly felt my blood boil from what I witnessed towards Ellie. She changed abruptly. I saw how mad she was at James, but when she heard her father called my husband the Alpha King, everything changed from her.“Do you want me to deal with her, Luna Emerald? She's being flirtatious!” Emily reacted beside me.I looked at her, and shook my head in response.“No, need. I trusted my husband. He will deal with her and let's just watch how he will embarrass Ellie.” I muttered to her, even though my inner self was telling me to attack Ellie.“I-I didn't realize it earlier, Alpha King. I'm sorry if it takes time for me to recognize that you're the real Alpha King. Please, forgive us. We haven't recognized you because we never had the chance to see your face,” Ellie explained to James.At this point, I just crossed my arms, my eyes were on her.
~Emerald~“Stay away from her! She's a threat to you!”My mouth widened from what I saw. This is the old woman who just said so many things to me last night. The woman who mentioned the prophecy. I really don't know what she wanted to point out.“What the hell are you talking about?” James exclaimed, blocking the woman from hitting me with her stick.I can't believe she's being too aggressive now compared to last night. She wanted to hit me and fortunately, James is with me. He protected me from the old woman.“Alpha King, I want you to be careful with her. She brought misfortune with you. That woman will be your greatest destruction and if you don't leave her, the worst things are coming into your life!” She uttered, making me stunned.I just felt my body start to tremble as her words started to sink in to me. All the bad words that she mentioned were for me. The aggressive old woman was referring to me, and this is annoying. I don't know how on earth she made a story about me.She w
~Emerald~“Luna is finally awake!”The moment I opened my eyes, these words were the first thing I heard. My head is still painful, making me grimaced in pain. I made sure that the pain in my head would lessen before I opened my eyes again.At first, my eyes were still blurry, but after a second, it started to clear. I started to panic when I suddenly realized the people in front of me.I even moved, but I can't move my hands because they were tied with a metallic leash. Beside me, I saw Emily, who was still unconscious.“F*ck! Where are we!?” I screamed in front of the wolves.They suddenly laughed as if they found my statement funny.“You don't feel this place, Luna Emerald?”One of them asked, making me raise my brows.“How would I know if you used a chemical on me to take my consciousness?” I blurted, and then laughed again.These wolves in front of me don't look familiar. I am certain that this is the first time I have seen them and the place they take us, I have no idea where th
~Emerald~I was stunned when Emily cried in front of me. My heart shattered hearing her sobs as I can feel that she's carrying so much struggle in life and knowing that we've been kidnapped by Ellie. That woman is a total bitch. I will make her regret messing with me.“Emily, what happened?” I asked, my tone filled with worries.Emily bit her lower lips as she raised her head to look at me. Her eyes filled with her tears and fear is also evident from it. I know she's afraid of our situation right now, but I have to remind her that she has nothing to be scared of.I will find a way to escape here. Ellie will not succeed in her plans. She will really regret it later.“I-I heard what Ellie had told you earlier. We didn't know that she was a hybrid. We never knew that the pack we allowed to enter our territory was actually the reason behind my parents' death. Hybrids killed our parents, Luna Emerald!” Ellie explained to me.I was stunned upon learning it. I have never expected that the hy
~Emerald~I felt my forehead arched as I looked into the woman's face. When she mentioned those words to me, her expression softened, worries were evident on her face.“What do you mean?” I murmured, not breaking my eyes away from her.“Yes, you heard it clearly, Luna. We need the Alpha's help. Our pack has been occupied by the enemies, and they imprisoned my Alpha father. I have no one else to call for help until the Alpha King flashes into my mind.”I furrowed my brows while listening to what the woman is telling me right now. Seeing her react like that, I knew for a moment that she's telling the truth. It was true that she came here to ask for help, and to talk to James. If she is really from Gideon's group, I know she already forced me out.“Who did conquer your father's pack?” I asked seriously, and then she let out a deep breath.The woman turned her body away and didn't speak for about a minute.“They said, it's Gideon's followers.”I could feel my heart skip a bit after hearin
~Emerald~After talking, James and I finally decided to go to the interrogation area to see the warriors who just betrayed us. While on our way, I couldn't help but grit my teeth thinking about them. We really couldn't believe that there are still enemies to our pack despite the intensive security that we have here. Seems like Gideon is just so desperate to bring us down.“I think you need to go back inside now, Baby,” James mumbled, right in front of the door of the interrogation center.I couldn't help but to furrow my brows while looking at him.“But why? I needed to see them and I also wanted to hear from them how on earth they betrayed us,” I explained, and he held my hands tightly.“Yes, I know, but I don't want you to worry about this anymore. I know they will not admit where Gideon is even if we killed them. But we are not going to end their lives until they surrender and tell us where the f*ck is Gideon's hideout.” James stated.I let out a sigh and thought about it. I'm also
~Emerald~I let go of hugging James after I heard what he just told me. Shocked was already written on my face when I looked at him.“Wait, what?” I mumbled at him.He smiled, and pinched my nose. I met his gaze and when I looked at him, I could not find any fear from him. This just proved that James doesn't worry about Gideon.“Stop worrying about Gideon. He's not letting anyone kill him because he's waiting for me, Baby. Gideon wanted us to face each other. It all started between the two of us and only the two of us can end this war. Therefore, you need to relax and don't worry that much about his presence,” James explained.I know he just doesn't want me to worry about him and I understand him. James only wanted to keep me safe, so he has to make me believe that everything is alright, but it's actually not.I love him, and I know he will get worried about me if I push to kill Gideon myself. James needed strong support from his loved ones and if he's telling the truth that Gideon wa
~Emerald~Ares failed to stop me from showing off myself to Gideon. I am finally in front of them now and Gideon turned his head at me. His eyes widened and he stepped back.“Emerald,” he mumbled to my name.I couldn't help but smirk upon meeting his gaze.“It's been a long time since we last saw each other, Gideon. I thought you were dead.” I muttered to him, but he just smirked.The warriors who betrayed us moved beside Gideon. Shocks were written to their faces now as they saw us here.“A person like me will never die easily. I have nine lives just like cats.” Gideon responded between his smirk.I shook my head, my gun still pointing at him. Ares was already next to me. He's carefully watching our enemies, preparing himself if ever they did a sudden attack.“You're alone, Emerald? Where's your asshole husband? I was expecting him to always be with you, but…” Gideon paused, his eyes turned at Ares. “You were with someone else.”I tilted my head, my lips still curled into a smirk as
~Emerald~“I'm fine, Cass. I just have something important to do.”After saying these words at Cassandra, I turned away. Cassandra called me but I never looked back. I just wanted to keep a distance from James. He needed space, and I've understood that he doesn't want to talk to me as of now.I don't have any idea where my legs are taking me now. My mind was too preoccupied that I never noticed I was already in the dark area of the pack.I just realized it late.“What the hell?” I murmured, upon realizing that.I was about to step my feet away when my eyes suddenly captured something. My brows furrowed as I focused my attention on them and then my teeth clenched.I know something is not right with them. They were talking about something and I stepped forward to listen to what they are talking now.“We have to move faster now. The King is waiting for us. We need to bring Luna to him before the attack happens.”These wolves who are talking in the dark area of the pack were familiar to m
~Emerald~I get my husband, but this is not the moment for us to fight each other. We only have a very short time to deal with Gideon. It's better if we focus all of our attention to find him.“James, calmed down. I already told you about it. It's not Ares' intention. He doesn't know about it at all, so please—listen to me,” I begged.James turned his head at me, his eyes still covered with darkness. I could feel my heart skip a bit while staring at him. James may be tough, but he still has a heart.I know he will listen to me and after a minute of holding Ares, James loosened his grip until he released him. A deep sigh escaped out of my throat, knowing that he listened.“You're grateful that my wife still defended you, Ares. Just so you know, I don't care whoever you are if you did something to my wife,” James murmured at Ares.I bit my lower lips, holding his hand.“That's enough, James. Ares has nothing to do with my outburst. It was my choice. We were just talking earlier when I b
~Emerald~I'm not weak, nor will I get affected by any of my predictions. It was just a mere prediction that can still be changed.But the question is…Is there really a way to change that? Am I powerful enough to prevent whatever I've seen to happen in the near future? Can I still stop the destiny of the Alpha King?And right now, I really don't know. I feel so weak every time I think of James' destiny. His destiny to die in the hands of Gideon and knowing that he's still alive now made me so worried.As I was thinking about that moment where I first predicted James' destiny, my body started trembling in fear. I don't want that to happen. I will not give up the father of my son and the same man who made my heart pound.They say destiny can't be changed, but I'll make history. I will rewrite James' destiny and I will do everything I could to prevent him from dying. Gideon will not succeed. We have to kill him before the prediction comes into reality.And with that thought, I feel calm
~Emerald~When Ares heard those words from me, he just sighed. He even looked at me as if he wanted to read my expression.“Today is the regular visit of those wolves living here, Luna Emerald. Would you like to join me?”I furrowed my brows upon hearing these words from him and narrowed my eyes, hoping to see James. However, I couldn't find him anywhere. But I am certain that he's busy as well with his responsibility, especially now that they have to start looking for Gideon's whereabouts.I have nothing else to do but wait for James and also, I have a responsibility to this pack. I'm their Luna, and it's part of my job to check what the members are doing here.“That would be great, Ares. I am willing to help you.” I responded at Ares.He just chuckled and told me to follow him. Ares brought two of his warriors through our visitations towards the members. I was behind, silently observing the surroundings.The pack members knew me, and it's not hard for them to recognize me. I just fe
~Emerald~“You're right, Knox. I'm truly grateful for having her beside me. She's the woman I have been dreaming about.”I could feel my face blushed when James never hesitated to say these words to me and in front of Alpha Knox. He doesn't care about those who can hear it because what's important to him is to let me know that he never thinks about our location as long as he can say heartfelt words for me.I'm just truly grateful for having him as my husband, and I'm hoping that we will stay bolder until we succeed in erasing Gideon from here.“You should take good care of your wife, Alpha James. She has a lot of potential and after what she showed here, I'm certain that she will be the target of the enemies. They knew that she is so useful to you and to the whole pack,” Alpha Knox uttered, making me look at him.His words felt meaningful. I just can't stop feeling nervous about it.“Of course, Knox. I have my eyes towards my wife and I know our enemies will get interested in her, esp
