~Emerald~Uncle Tobias did nothing but just cried on his bed. Allison did her best to comfort her father while I was in the corner, gritting my teeth. I just can't believe that my father's brother will do this to my parents. It's been a while since I have never seen him. If I saw him, I would never allow him to escape.He will pay for what he did to my parents and to all the innocent wolves who died during the attack. “What's the name of that f*cking Alpha?” James mumbled, making uncle Tobias turn his head towards the direction of the Alpha.He's not aware who James is, and I know he's wondering right now based on how he looked at James.“You look familiar to me. I know I have seen you once…” Uncle Tobias uttered, his eyes fixed on James.He was trying to remember the face of James. I don't know where they met, but it won't be shocking to me. Uncle Tobias was once a beta and definitely, they have seen each other before.“Dad, he's the Alpha King. The man with Emerald was her husband
~Emerald~It feels so weird that I suddenly hesitated to something I can't explain. Alpha Killian killed my parents. He caused horrible events in my life as well to those wolves who survived. They suffered because of him. I suffered from the attack he did and death is the only way for us to achieve the justice we wanted to have. I should not hesitate in killing him. I should not feel empathy for him. This is what I need to bear in mind before meeting him. I have to prepare myself before seeing Alpha Killian because I know what could be the consequences of it. There would be one group that would rise on top, and it should be the Crescent Moon Pack. James and I will beat them down altogether.“Allison will be guiding you the way through Killian's pack because she knows the way there. She has been spying on the pack for a long time now for us to gather information about them, Alpha King,” Uncle Tobias uttered, which made me turn my head at Allison.She smiled at me and said, “I am the
~Emerald~When the night arrived, all of us prepared for the attack that we were about to do at Killian's pack. My heart started pounding not because I'm afraid of them, but because I can't wait to see them. I could no longer wait to see my uncle, Alpha Killian, the one who did attack us long ago.After talking to uncle Tobias earlier, Allison brought me to the other wolves. She started introducing me to them as well as James. I remember some of them and I really felt grateful that I met them again.I feel so empty for how many years and now, everything will change. My life will never be the same as everything came back to me. I have gotten the information I need, and I just hope that there is new information which will surprise me again.“Are you ready?”I raised my head when I heard James. He was already standing in front of the door, his hands were inside his pant's pocket.A smile formed on my lips, nodding my head in response.“I'm ready to attack, James. Once we finish dealing w
~Emerald~“Prepare everyone, we are about to enter the secret passage through their pack.”As Allison muttered these to us, I just felt the tight hold of James to my mind. He even looked at me, his eyes were telling me something.“Don't let your guard down. I'm here beside you.” James reminded me.I nodded my head to him, which made him feel relieved. At this moment, I took out my gun from my coat. I have to prepare this just in case we meet an enemy on our way to the secret passage.Allison still led us the way. She kept on walking, and we just followed her from the back. After almost twenty minutes of walking, I can already see the houses not far from us. The houses that look different from the poor saviors who suffered from what the attack of Killian's pack before.The lives of the wolves here are different from the saviors. They have a nice house, while the saviors don't. They have more food and water than the saviors.And thinking about the privileged they have here to compare to
~Emerald~I raised one of my brows as to what Killian had uttered. His reaction seemed priceless, and I can even see his eyes sparkling as he looked at me now.“What the hell are you talking about?” I mumbled at Killian, while my teeth gritted in anger.I don't know if I can still control myself. This man is testing my patience. I really wanted to end his life now with my gun, but I don't want to make everything easy for him. He has to suffer first in my hands.There is no way I will allow him to meet the king of hell without suffering first. Killian killed the most important wolves of my life. I will never forgive him, I swear.“I really can't believe what I saw. You have grown up already. I thought… I thought you died together with your mother!” Killian uttered to me.I furrowed my brows, still sneering at him. James held my hand, telling me to look at him.“Don't listen to whatever he's going to say. I know he just wanted to fool us, Emerald.” James warned me, his eyes are sharp as
~Emerald~I was shocked by what Killian admitted to me. My breathing even slowed down as I was staring at him. The words he mentioned to me really captured my attention. I don't know what to feel. I couldn't even think clearly.All that I know, Killian mentioned something that I don't like to hear. Knowing that my parents were involved in this made my blood boil.“What the hell are you talking about, Killian!?” I exclaimed, anger flared in my eyes.Alpha Killian just looked at me, his eyes still filled with tears. I don't know, but I can't find the Killian they described to me. He looks way different now. It seems like his arrogant attitude is gone.“Your mother and I were lovers before Reagan came into the picture. We were happy in the beginning, but not until he ruined me with your mother. He did his best to win your mother's heart until she decided to leave me when she found out who I am. Your mother got angry with me and I admitted that I was wrong…” Killian explained to me.James
~Emerald~“I'm sorry?”My heart tightened as these words escaped from my mouth. Killian just triggered my darkest side and I don't know if I still can't stop myself. If there's one thing I knew right now after I saw that vision, it's to kill him.My plan will not change even though I learned that he's my real father. I will still serve my parents' the justice they deserve. They were my family.“Will your sorry bring back the lives of those who died before?” I gritted my teeth, telling him those words. “Do you think it will change my mind!?”I just can't explain the anger I have felt towards Killian from what he did in the past. He took so many lives, not just my parents' lives. I will make him pay and having him as my real father wouldn't change my plan.“I know, but I truly regretted it. The things that I have done before were unforgivable, and I am willing to face it. I won't run away from it just for you. All that I am asking you is that you have to give me another chance. Let me p
~Emerald~I grit my teeth when these words escaped from Killian's mouth. He just gave me a strong reason to end his life as soon as possible.“Who are you to say that to me? You don't own my life, and you will never be!” I blurted, still with my gritted teeth.Killian nodded his head abruptly as if he's afraid to argue with me. This is much better because my goal is to make him scared of me. I want to make him feel that if there's someone aside from the Alpha King that he must be scared of, it should be me.He should be scared of a woman who's seeking justice for her parents’ death.“You have to listen to me, Emerald. I know what will be your future the moment I learned that you're my daughter. Something good is waiting for you and I can give that to you. He can provide you the life you wanted and it's not James. He can't give the happiness that your heart ever wanted.” Killian mumbled, and he didn't care about the consequences of his words.He wasn't thinking that if James heard thes
~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
~Emerald~“That's enough!”I could feel my heart suddenly stop beating for a moment when I heard that voice. My nerves were shaking as I slowly turned my head from the back.And then my eyes met with James. His hard expression made me gulp as I worried about his expression.“Alpha James…” Nora mumbled, moving away from me.James never looked at her. His attention was focused on me. Seeing that expression from him, I know what's in his mind.“What's this, Emerald?” He asked in his cold tone.I let out a deep breath, calming myself as I met his gaze. James will definitely scold me for messing up with his newly hired warrior. I already knew that and there's no need for him to say it aloud with me.“I know you're going to scold me from what I did, but you know me so well, James. I will never do that without deep reason. You can think whatever you want, and I'm tired of defending myself. I know you will take her side because she was our visitor, so go ahead. I'm leaving.”I turned my head
