~Emerald~

I wiped the sweat on my forehead after I treated James' wound. He was already asleep on the bed and his trembling body had already stopped.

I lay down on the couch, pinned my back against it. My eyes laid at James, and then I took out a deep breath. I checked my son Jacob, and he was still asleep until now. It's almost in the middle of the night and my body is tired.

I could no longer keep myself still awake, so I decided to sleep and just hoped that James would be fine tomorrow. He needed to leave my cabin because I didn't want anyone to see him here. I don't want him and Gideon to fight again.

‘Everything would be alright, Emerald. You can take your rest, and don't worry because I'll make sure everything will be fine tonight.’

I smiled from what Lilian had told me. After she said those words, I decided to close my eyes and let the darkness cover my eyes.

The next morning, I woke up late already. The first thing I did was to check Jacob on his crib, and my world stumbled

  • My Alpha King Ex-husband's Regrets    Chapter 54: Thank You

    ~Emerald~It sounded surreal as I thought about the decision I made. I know this could be a betrayal to my promise before, but I have to consider my son's happiness. He needs his father's warmth, and I can't take that moment from him. I will just allow James to hold my son, but my plans with him will still be fulfilled. Nothing will change, and it doesn't matter if he's my son's father. “Don't you dare do something that will make me angry, James. You are not going to bring him out of my cabin. See my son in here, but you can't take him out,” I uttered, while looking at James. “Do you understand?” James nodded his head, still holding my son in his arms. He remained staring at me as if he were thinking about something. I just felt my heart pounded by the looks that James is giving me now.“Did Gideon carry my son?” I was stunned in my direction because of his sudden question at me. My lips pursed, and it took me a minute before I responded to him.“You don't care about that. Just mi

    ~Emerald~Emerald left the house without letting James know about it. She just told Cassandra she has to leave and remind her about James.As she walks the way through Gideon's office, her mind doesn't leave the house. She can't stop thinking about James and his son. “I thought you hated him?” Lilian spoke all of a sudden.I stopped walking, my fists clenched about what she just asked.“Of course I'm mad at him.”Lilian couldn't stop herself from laughing. I just shook my head and kept on walking. If I listened to what my wolf was telling me, this would bring me into chaos.I won't allow anyone to dictate about what I will do, especially about what I feel. This is my life. I have the right to do what I want to do without thinking about anybody and no one can stop me from doing that.“I didn't stop you, Emerald. You mentioned that you can control what you feel, so if you fall for James again, that's not my fault.”I was stunned upon hearing these words from my Lilian. My heartbeat rac

    ~Emerald~Gideon rose from his seat just to walk in front of me. I followed him with my confused look, while my heart kept pounding so fast. “I know you are going to decline this offer, but this for the best, Emerald. This work is for you, and I made this only for you,” Gideon uttered in his deep voice.My brows were furrowed while listening to him. I have this feeling that Gideon will offer me a higher chance of being on his side. ‘That's what I felt too, Emerald!’ Lilian spoke at the back of my head. I let out a sigh, and stared at him deep into his eyes. Even if I will decline this, Gideon will still pursue this. He will do his best just for me to accept it, and I don't want to disappoint him. “Just tell me, Gideon…” I uttered, and then he took a deep breath. Gideon's eyes were fixed on me as he spoke, “I want to appoint you as my gamma, Emerald.”I was stunned, almost gasping from what I've heard towards Gideon. As I stared into his eyes, all I found was sincerity. He meant w

    ~Emerald~“If you are pleased to have Emerald as the newly appointed gamma, you are free to quit your job. I don't need a beta like you!” Damian's hard reaction from earlier suddenly softened after Gideon burst into anger. He let out a heavy sigh, and bowed his head down. “I apologize for overreacting, Alpha Gideon. I will do what you said to me, and I'm sorry again. To you, Emerald…” Damian uttered. “I apologize as well for judging you.”I nodded my head towards Damian. He's just worried about the pack's situation and I understand his reaction. I won't plant a grudge with him just because of that. ‘He's just faking it. He's not sincere with his apologies!’ Lilian interrupted.I shook my head again, and did not mind what Lilian had told me.Damian left the room as fast as he could, so I turned my head at Gideon. He was calming himself by closing his eyes, and when he's fine, he looked at me. “Maybe, Damian is right, Gideon,” I uttered, trying my best not to make him mad.Gideon ju

    ~Emerald~I couldn't help but look at him straight in the eye. James just asked me if I love Gideon and I don't understand why he has to ask this one. I don't know what it will do to him.“You should not be asking about this one, James. I am not obligated to answer everything you will ask from me. You didn't even realize this one when I was still with you.” I responded to him with my chin tilted. It's just my way to tell him that I am not afraid of him.His question with me will not startle me. Perhaps, he should be the one to be afraid now. I can lie to him anytime I want just to hurt his feelings. James will definitely regret in his entire life if ever I found someone better, if his regrets were real.“I just wanted to know, Emerald. I wanted to make sure that you didn't fall in his trap yet. You will think of me as a dumbass Alpha, and I'm okay with it but I will make sure no one will hurt you. As long as I am still breathing in this world, no one will hurt you anymore,” James utte

    ~Emerald~I never waited for James to respond to me when I decided to go inside the room. I made sure that it's locked to prevent him from coming in.My heart started pounding again, the moment I entered the room. I touch my heart and rest my body against the door.I can't help but to feel guilty about what I've said to James. There was a part of me which regretted that I said those words, and I don't know why. I don't know why this happened to me. “Are you okay, Emerald?” Lilian asked, her tone looking worried about me. I let out a deep sigh, and then nodded my head in response. My head turned at Jacob who was still asleep. A smile formed on my lips as I walked near his crib. This is the best thing that has happened to my life. I didn't regret that I have a child with James because Jacob is the symbol of my love towards his father before.He was the living proof that I once loved his father. I never felt any regrets of giving myself to James because I have my handsome son. I promis

    ~Emerald~“Hello!?” I have been searching for the way out of this forest, but it seems like I was already lost. It was already almost an hour of being stuck in this nowhere. No one is living here, and it's just naturally surrounded by trees. “Can you just please rest?” Lilian muttered, trying to calm me down. I messed up my hair, and annoyingly sat on the ground. “How could I rest if we were lost? We couldn't even find the way back to the pack!” I uttered, almost screaming. Lilian took a deep breath, and then she replied, “I know your distress, but if you keep on doing that, it will be difficult for us to find the way!” I shook my head and washed my face using my hands. Staying in this forest is a wrong decision. This place was the home of many wild animals, and we're just lucky because we didn't meet any wild animals yet. I won't know later.“Maybe your instincts could help us,” I responded, but Lilian just let out a sigh. I shook my head and couldn't stop from letting out a de

    ~Emerald~“I'm sorry, Babe,” Alpha James apologized while his hands were still cupping my face. “I'm sorry if I can't help it.”My hands clenched into fists when I began to fight what I am feeling now. James just literally kissed me. I was stunned by that. No words would come out from my mouth as my mind was still preoccupied with how he crushed his lips with mine. I even felt a sudden disappointment when he stopped kissing me for no reason. This is such an insane imagination. I should not let this feeling overpower my anger towards James. He hurt me badly.I hated him, but at the same time, I wanted him. I want to feel his body against me, and I think this is unstoppable. After a year of hatred with James, he still has a part of me that I couldn't deny. I know I keep telling myself that I should not be feeling this with him, but my heart betrayed me.“Emerald,” James called me, so I lifted my head. “I want you now…”Just before I could even react to it, he took my lips again, not al

    ~Emerald~Allison might have done good to us for one last time, but the fact won't change that she still betrayed me. She ruined our friendship already. She puts my life in danger. Allison simply surrenders me to the enemies and that's unforgivable.“The fact won't change that she still betrayed me, James. I will not forgive her.” I muttered, my heart became numb towards Allison.James just let out a deep breath. He looked at me, nodding his head.“Alright, let's not worry about her anymore. We will respect your decision of not forgiving Allison. We are on your side, Emerald.” James responded, making me smile at him.“Thank you, James. This incident will never happen again. I will make sure to know whom I am going to trust. They can't fool me anymore because that one incident is enough.” I muttered between my gritted teeth.No enemies can fool me anymore. I can feel my eyes suddenly darkening as I said these words to James. He just listened to me and allowed this moment for me to brin

    ~Emerald~I couldn't explain the pounding of my heart the moment I saw his face. The fear that I felt from earlier thinking about James suddenly disappeared.I ran into his direction and never hesitated to hug him. He wrapped his hands around my waist, pulling me closer.“I'm fine, Baby,” James mumbled to me.I bit my lower lips as I tried to prevent myself from crying, but it's unstoppable. I have no control with my eyes and just let my tears streamed on my cheeks.James' hug tightened against mine. I can feel the pounding of my heart from what James did to me. He wanted to let me feel his presence and even if he wasn't hugging me, I can already feel his presence by just seeing him from afar. That was already enough for me.“You have no idea how worried I am because of you. I couldn't stop thinking about the possibility that you might lose the fight with Gideon. He's just too evil, James. He will do everything he can just to bring us down!” I muttered, and he nodded his head.“Yes, I

    ~Emerald~“That was you!”I could not control myself anymore the exact moment I learned how Beatrice suddenly transformed back into what she looks like.“Yes, it's me, Emerald.” Beatrice mumbled while looking me straight in the eyes.I tilted my head, my teeth gritted while meeting this woman in front of me. She was the woman who took my memories last time. I will make sure she will pay from what she did!“You are not doing your job, Beatrice. I was still able to remember. I thought I couldn't remember anymore…” I mumbled, but she just smirked.Her expression is suspicious. I know there's something in her mind right now, and I have to know about it.“It's because I didn't take your memories permanently.” Beatrice responded to me.My brows furrowed from what she mentioned to me, making me speechless. As I continued looking at Beatrice, I could already feel that I was about to unfold another secret. This is what my instincts were telling me now.“You didn't obey Gideon at all?” I mumble

    ~Emerald~“James…”A tear fell from my eyes when I saw his face again. Hours had passed since they brought me here, and I thought I wouldn't be able to see him again. I thought that I would forever forget them, but the Moon Goddess never left me.She helped me survive this triumph that I am facing now, and I just got back my memories after hours of not remembering anything.“Emerald…” James mumbled while the corners of his eyes reddened.He was about to approach me when someone suddenly grabbed my hand. I just felt a sharp metal suddenly pointed on my head, which made my heart pound so fast.When I lifted my head to see who that is, I realized that it's Gideon. He's smirking now while looking at James and when I turned my head back to him, I saw how James gritted his teeth in anger.“Let her go, Gideon. You don't have to include my wife to this battle between the two of us. Face me and let's have a fight.” James muttered, but Gideon just shook his head.“Do you really think that I wil

    ~Emerald~“Everyone, listen to me!”Gideon tried to get the attention of his members while I remained silent in the corner. My arms were crossed as I continued watching them. I know deep within my heart that something is not really right.That man named James just captured my attention. I can feel a connection with him that I can't even explain.Is he part of my past?“I know one of you already knew that this woman beside me is my wife, but still, I wanted to remind you about it once again. This woman is my wife and because of that, I wanted all of you to fear her. I don't want to see anybody talk to my wife and say something that's against my policy, or else I will kill you!”I stood up straight when Gideon suddenly uttered these words. My brows suddenly furrowed because of what he just said to his members.“Why do you want to disallow them from talking to me?” I muttered, confusion covered my face.Gideon turned his head at me, his lips curled into a playful smirk.“I just don't wan

    ~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.

    ~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

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
