~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 lips, hands turned into fists. I am doing my best not to cry, but thinking about those terrible events that happened to me made me so weak. Thinking about how James replaced me with his new mate and how he believed in her, all I could feel was agony. I can't imagine my life would be like this. 

Worst of all, he even wanted to remove me from this world!

“It's because he's an asshole!” I answered, while gritting my teeth. 

Alpha Gideon shook his head in disbelief. He walked in my direction, trying to help me to stand up. Instead of accepting his hand, I stared at it.

“Don't be scared of me. I won't save you from them if I had plans against you.”

My mouth widened. I lifted my head and saw the reaction on his face.

My body felt so weak until now, but I did my best to stand up. I have to stand up and face him. I owe my life to him and if he didn't come on time to rescue me, I am definitely dead now.

“But, you are still James' step-brother. I know you are going to give me to him. I need to leave far away. He would kill me if he found out that I was still alive. H-He…”

Just before I could finish my words, I felt my head spinning. Many things had happened today and my body felt so weak to handle it. I don't know if I can still keep my composure. I don't know if I can still keep my eyes open. My head was already spinning and I couldn't control myself anymore.

Alpha Gideon immediately grabbed my body just before I fell down on the ground. My eyes were already closed, but my ears could still hear. I just heard what Alpha Gideon had uttered before I totally lost my consciousness.

“You are safe with me, Emerald. James will not hurt you when you are beside me, I promise,” he uttered.

After that, I didn't know what happened. I just realized that I was already in a room the moment I opened my eyes. The first thing I did was hold my stomach and feel my child.

Tears suddenly streamed down to my eyes when I remembered all the terrible events that happened to me. The moment when I found out that James already found his mate. The moment that I found out she was pregnant and James wanted to reject me. The moment when he chose her over me and when he sent his guards to kill me.

Why is James doing this to me? What did I do to have this in return? Why…

“Your husband is just an asshole, Emerald. There's no problem with you. He's just an asshole for letting you go.” 

I can't stop biting my lower lips when Lilian's voice echoes through my head. She just read my mind, which made her respond like that.

“I gave him everything, Lilian. You know how much I loved him. I served him all my life even though he did nothing, but to let me feel how he disliked me. Was my love not enough with him?”

Lilian let out a deep sigh. She didn't say anything.

“But I know I've done everything I could just to keep our marriage. I already begged, but he never listened to me. He didn't give me another chance. He didn't believe me when I said I am carrying his child. James was so numb!” I uttered while gritting my teeth.

The events from earlier flashes back into my head. As I remember the face of his mate, Katie with him, all I could feel is anger. I started to pity myself. I looked too desperate when I tried to beg him. I looked too pitiful when I asked for his love.

Maybe I just loved him that much, which pushed me to do all of that. And now that he already made me feel how he does not want me in his life and how he pushes me away to the point that he risked my life, all I could feel was anger. I am so mad with Alpha James and I swear I will never forgive him for everything he did to me.

Time will come and James will regret everything he did, I promise that. He will regret that he let me go and choose that bitch over me and his child who actually loved him unconditionally. 

“Someone told me about what you've gone through in the Crescent Moon Pack,”

My eyes turned to the door when I heard that voice. I swallowed hard after I realized that Alpha Gideon was actually at the door, in front of me. I just confirmed that it's actually him who rescued me from James' men, and I was not actually dreaming. 

I felt nervous thinking about James' step-brother who was actually the one who rescued me at the forest, but despite that, I still did my best to face him with courage and ask. “Why did you save me?”

His brows furrowed, arms crossed, while looking at me. Just like Alpha James, Alpha Gideon's presence is a little bit mysterious and powerful that could almost make me tremble.

“Because you need help,” he simply responded. “Why? Do you expect that I have other reasons for saving you, Luna Emerald?”

My teeth gritted with my hands already clenching in anger. 

“I am no longer a Luna. Your step-brother rejected me for his newly found mate. He threw me and his son just because of her, so please don't call me Luna. I despised that name!” 

He walked in my direction, and he moved his face closer to me.

“We will make him regret what he did to you and your child, Emerald,” Gideon uttered.

His husky whisper made my skin crawl.

So she conveniently failed to mention that he didn't banish her because he found his mate. He banished her because her desperate ass attacked a woman she thought was pregnant. Her ex is an asshole, but her "love" was just obsession. It's obvious when you observe how much inner monoluge was me me me

You always protected me, and now it's my turn to do the favor,” I muttered in my calm tone.James shut his eyes, calming himself.

You don't have to worry about me because I can handle myself. I am already on my way to make them pay because I am James, your Alpha King husband,” he explained, which made me nod my head quickly.“I know, I know, but it's done now.

    ~Emerald~Silence fell inside the club when my voice echoed inside. But after a minute, they started laughing. I just felt my blood start to boil when they did that, making me hold my gun tightly.“It's us, Beautiful. Do you have a problem with that?”The man in the middle spoke up, his smirk almost reached his ear. I tilted my head, looking at him straight in the eyes.“Look at her. She's playing with a toy gun.”Another one murmured, which made me smirk. They thought my gun was fake. I don't know what their reactions would be if I shoot them. But I will make the scene so thrilling.“Do you want to try this, Ugly?” I murmured, and the moment I muttered these words, it triggered him.He stepped closer to approach me, but before he could move his feet, I shot his leg. An excruciating scream echoes inside the club, which makes the other customers stunned.They moved backward, shock was written on their faces.
