~Emerald~

After the incident earlier, I went back to my cabin as Gideon had told me. Lilian didn't talk to me and this is related to what I have said earlier.

“Fine, I apologize if I became rude earlier,” I uttered in my low voice and stopped right in front of the door.

Lilian let out a sigh, and she spoke, “You know, I've always understood you, Emerald. I also apologize if you think I'm being so annoying, but you can't stop me worrying about you. My instincts were strong. I have to be honest with you. Gideon is not for you, and don't take this seriously, to the point that you will think of me as being biased. This is what I feel towards him even if James is not here!”

I can't stop shaking my head, my lips twisted in disbelief.

“I know your purpose in doing this, Lilian, but can't you be happy for me?” I uttered, my voice filled with dismay. “I was expecting you to be on my side, supporting me in every decision I will make because you're my wolf. You are part of my life, and we are

    ~Emerald~I remained speechless after what I heard from James. Just before someone could see us, I took his hand off my waist, and then I faced him.“You should stop doing this, James. I don't know if I can give you a chance. There is no assurance, so I would suggest you stop this,” I uttered, staring at him deep into his eyes. James just smiled. He took my hands and when he did that, I could feel my body reacting. Seems that, there were bolts of electricity from his hand, and I was electrified by James' hand.My heart pounded, as I stared at him. I waited for whatever James would tell me about.“You can't teach my heart to stop, Emerald. There is no way you can teach this to stop from beating because my heart was screaming your name. It only beats you,” James uttered between his husky voice. I bit my bottom lips, and then spoke, “You have no chance with me, James. I don't know if I can allow you to enter my heart again. You just left a big scar in my heart, and it's difficult to he

    ~Emerald~The time that I have been waiting for has finally come. Gideon and I would have a date tonight at the garden area of his mansion, and this made me so nervous. Cassandra helped me get changed. Our conversation didn't last long because we focused our attention back to Jacob. On the other hand, James didn't show up to me. He didn't return to the cabin after he told me he's going to come back. Maybe he realized that he got nothing from me.“I'm nervous,” I uttered while looking at myself in the mirror. Cassandra is at my back, fixing my hair. She couldn't stop herself from smiling, so I turned my head to her to face her.“I know how this feels, but trust me, everything will be alright. Tonight, you will embark on a new beginning. I have this feeling about the real reason Gideon asked you for a date,” Cassandra said in her excited voice. I let out a sigh, and smiled at her. There is something in my heart that feels a bolt of excitement to see Gideon tonight. My heart is at pea

    ~Emerald~Alpha Gideon kneels in front of me, his eyes filled with tears. My mouth widened from what he did. I didn't expect Gideon to cry in front of me. Seems like he was just happy knowing that I allowed him to court me. I don't have a problem with that. Gideon is allowed to court me because he's a kind-hearted Alpha I know. He was there during the times when I needed someone to lean on. He's one of those people who lift me up. My heart will be safe with him. I know he won't hurt me just like what James did to me.‘You are not sure about that, Emerald. Just think carefully about your decisions in life,’ Lilian uttered.I let out a deep breath and didn't reply to her. I have to focus myself towards Gideon who was in tears until now.“Thank you for giving me a chance to court you, Emerald. If you accept my hand, I promise you will never regret it. You will never cry just the way you experience from James. I will accept you and Jacob with my heart,” Gideon uttered between his tears.

I just wanted to make sure that James had no chance with you. Come on, let's eat our dinner,” Gideon said, and I smiled. He went back into his seat, and we began eating the food that he prepared for our date. We just talked after eating until Gideon decided to bring me back to my cabin. He accompanied me there and never left until I entered the cabin. I was still smiling as I locked the door of my house when someone spoke.“Where have you been?” My heart almost jumped off from my rib cage upon hearing that voice. A deep voice coming from James. I took a deep breath and said, “You don't care.”I walked away and decided to pass him when James stopped me by grabbing my wrist. I gritted my teeth and took his hand off my wrist.“Did you think I wouldn't know where you are?” James respond

    ~Emerald~“Does he make you happy?” I was stunned in my direction when I heard this from James. As I stared at him deep in his eyes, all I could see was pain. I know this is painful for him but just like what I have said, James has to experience this. He has to know that he can't have everything.A deep breath escaped out of my throat as I tilted my head as I spoke, “Yes, I am happy with Gideon.”‘That's a lie, Emerald. You have to tell James the truth!’ Lilian screamed at the back of my head but I didn't listen to her. I disregard her screams because I can do whatever I want to do.James, who heard my answer smiled bitterly, tears still flowing from his eyes. He used the back of his hand to wipe the tears. “You are right. I deserve all of this, and I would forever hold this regret until my last breath. If I couldn't have you anymore, then it's time…” James paused for a moment, and then he continued, “It's time for me to give up, Emerald, but it doesn't mean I'm giving up on loving

    ~James~Just after talking to Emerald, I went back to my cabin in Gideon's pack. I can feel my heart still in pain knowing that the woman I loved chose my step-brother instead of me, but I respected her decision. I didn't want anything but to see her being happy with someone else, and I couldn't give her that because of my chaotic life.“Alpha James?” Levi asked after he saw me. “It's time to leave, Levi,” I uttered, walking straight to my closet. I just took my coat. I will leave my things behind because I don't need it, actually. Levi, who was confused about what I said, walked in front.“What do you mean, Alpha James?” Levi asked, his voice filled with confusion. I let out a deep sigh and met his gaze. “We are leaving this pack for good. Emerald has already made her choice and she didn't choose me.” Levi gasped from what he found out as if he couldn't believe it. This man knew all the things and efforts I did for Emerald. He knows everything because he's been with me.“She chos

My men immediately welcomed me the moment they saw me enter the border.“We are glad to see you here again, Alpha James,” one of them uttered these words to me. I just looked at them with my blank face. Emerald kept banging on in my mind, and it's just difficult to forget about her, especially our son, Jacob.My gamma, Calvin, immediately met me in his serious reaction. I stared at him thinking about the task I gave him.“You have to know something, Alpha James,” Calvin said, making me stop from walking.I let out a deep breath, nodding my head responding to him.“Follow me to my office and bring everything you've gotten for me.” Calvin nodded his head responding to me. I continued walking until I finally reached the mansion. The moment my beta opened the door, I was surprised by what I found out.“James?” Katie was shocked when she saw me. My jaw tightened when I noticed what she was holdi

    ~James~“It is the time for Katie's dethroning, Calvin.” After I mentioned these words towards my gamma, I left the office while holding the DNA result in my hands. I walked straight to where Katie is, and she was in the living room, sipping a coffee as if nothing happened earlier.“James,” she stood up from the couch to face me. I started gritting my teeth, my eyes were fixed on her. I threw the result in front of her face that shocked her.“Explain that to me, Katie!” I barked, making her nervous. It's obvious from her facial reaction that she's nervous about what I have against her.Katie read it, her eyes widened. She was even shaking her head, which made me cross my arms while waiting for her to speak. “N-No, no, no. This can't be. This is not true, James. The result is fake!” Katie crashed the result and threw it somewhere. She started crying in front of me.‘You didn't say anything yet, but she was already affected. Seems like, someone is being guilty,’ Logan murmured at the

    ~Emerald~“You're overreacting, Emerald.”I was stunned when James mentioned these words to me with his cold expression. His words seemed to be piercing my heart. I just can't believe it and knowing that these words are coming from him, I felt disappointed.“You're accusing me of overreacting?” I mimic, my voice is as cold as the snow.James shut his eyes, trying to calm himself down. I can feel the frustration from his face just by how he looked at me.“Look, I'm sorry. I didn't intend to say that to you,” James uttered in a soft voice.I shook my head, stepping my feet backward as I prepared myself to leave.“If you're thinking of me as overreacting, then you just misinterpreted me. This is absolutely useless, James. Let's take a break for a moment. We wouldn't agree to each other thinking that neither of us were on good terms,” I muttered at James.He wanted to say something to me, when I turned my back away before he could even utter. Just the moment I turned my back away, I took

    ~Emerald~I continued walking my feet without looking back to James. He tried reaching me, but then Levi came, asking him for a word. I was relieved from Levi's sudden interruption, giving me time to think.At this moment, I decided to look for Cassandra and found her outside the mansion. She raised her head, worries evident on her face.“What happened?” Cassandra said, making me let out a deep breath.“I came to her room and it's true. My husband was there, and I caught them hugging. However, James and Althea explained to me that it was just a friendly hug…” I explained it to my best friend.Cassandra put Jacob back to his stroller, and then she looked at me deep into my eyes. I know what she would tell me.“A friendly hug?” She uttered, nodding her head as if something was already in her mind. “Are you sure that was just a friendly hug?”I gasped, hearing these words from Cassandra. I understand her point. She was just protecting me, but then I suddenly realized something.A deep an

    ~Emerald~“She knows the girl?”Levi nodded his head in response to me. I took out a deep breath, forcing a smile. Levi shouldn't think that I was affected by what I found out. And one more thing, I have nothing to be scared of.“Yes, Luna Emerald. Alpha James and Althea told us about it,” Levi replied. I smiled at Levi, nodding my head in response.“Great, thank you for telling me. I have to see them now because I wanted to check the girl's situation as well.” I turned away after saying this to Levi. He wasn't given the chance to speak as I left immediately before he could even say a word.My heart pounded so fast, thinking about her. I wondered how she and James even met.‘Maybe, they met in the human world. Knowing James before, he had travels that the pack didn't know,’ Lilian interrupted, making me pause in my tracks. I suddenly felt my legs trembling, my fists clenching when realization hit me after Lilian said those words to me.‘What if…’ I paused, struggling to even contin

    ~Emerald~I was stunned by Cassandra's question to me. My heart even started pounding, disbelief written to my face as I looked at her. Knowing my best friend, I know she's just worried about me, but I have trust in my husband.“I know your worries, Cass, but believe me it won't. James loved his son and he promised he would spend the rest of his life with me. I swear, he won't allow any girl to flirt with him,” I assured her.Cassandra took out a deep breath, a smile curved on her lips.“I'm sorry if I said these words to you. I just don't want something bad to happen to you. I don't want to see you getting hurt again, Emerald,” Cassandra uttered in her worried face.Seeing her reaction like that made me feel grateful in a way that I have such a friend who always thinks about me. The friendship that Cassandra and I had would always be forever.“I know, but don't worry about me. I can handle this one. My husband already knew what would happen to him if he dared to hurt us,” I mumbled,

    ~Emerald~“Help me! Help!”I grip the handle of the car's door as I hear a woman's scream outside. James immediately rushed out from the car to find her. I did follow him and in the middle of the road, there's a wounded woman coming over to us.My mouth widened when I felt something from her.“A human girl,” I mumbled, my eyes directly focused on her.In the distance, a group of men were coming. They were all smirking as they followed the wounded human girl, making me grit my teeth as I realized who they could be.“Christopher, take the girl in your car!” James commanded his cousin, and he listened immediately.At this point, James moved closer to me as we waited for the group of men coming into our direction.My brows furrowed, focusing my eyes on these human beings who got lost in our area. I don't know if they had an idea that this place was filled with wolves.“Where do you think you're taking her?”A man in the middle suddenly asked us this question. I tilted my head, as I notice

    ~Emerald~The way he grabbed my waist and took my lips before I could react, gave me so many emotions that I couldn't control. My cheeks turned red, my legs started trembling.I know there were wolves already looking at us, but as James started moving his lips, I already lost the will to decline. I just found myself, wrapping my hands around his neck.The kiss lasted for a minute, and both of us gasped for air as we let go of each other's mouth. James gave me a peck on my lips and when I realized what we did, I couldn't find the courage to face the wolves.However, we were suddenly interrupted when Christopher arrived. Behind him is a woman I wasn't familiar with.“I found her and the other prisoner of this pack. I have already allowed them to escape, while she's coming back with us,” Christopher explained, making me look at the woman.My brows furrowed as I saw familiarity from her. Her face looks familiar to me. It seems like I have already seen it to another person.‘That's Isabell

    ~Emerald~I swallowed hard, seeing these wolves surrounding me now. My heart pounded so fast, as I held my gun tightly.The wolves slowly stepped their feet near my direction, preparing themselves to attack me.‘Where the hell they come from!?’ Lilian exclaimed at the back of my head.I grit my teeth, eyes started to darken as I looked at them. If they dare to attack me now, I will make sure to kill them undoubtedly. My gun will kill all of them and if I lose my bullets, Lilian will kill them.‘I got your back, Emerald. Just watch your moves. They are numerous and James is not here. He's also busy with the other enemies!’ Lilian reminded me, making me nod my head in response.‘We can do it alone because we are not weak, Lilian. I will make sure to end them on my own, I swear!’ I muttered to her, and Lilian nodded her head in response.At this point, I put all of my focus to the enemies in front of me. They started hissing as if they wanted to eat me alive and the next thing that happe

    ~Emerald~A sound of a gun suddenly echoed in the area where we were all standing. I smelled the ash of a bullet, coming out from my gun, while the corners of my lips lifted.Yes, I was behind the sound of a gunshot. It came from me. I was the one who shot Beta Steven, but only towards his left arm.“F*ck!” Beta Steven screamed in pain, his left arm covered with blood.The warriors behind him were about to come after me, but James stepped forward, glaring at them.“Don't you dare step your f*cking feet near my wife or else, I will kill you at once!” James warned them.I bit my lower lips as I realized what I just did, but I have no regrets. The poor mate of Alpha Raven is what crosses my head.As James threatened those warriors, they returned to their area. Beta Steven started scolding them as if he really wanted the warriors to attack us. However, it never happened according to what he likes.“Is that all? You will just allow these enemies to step into our land and threaten us to our

    ~Emerald~“This is their pack, Alpha James.”I tilted my head when I heard Raven's voice as he spoke. James took my hand, making me turn my head to him.“We're finally here, so I want you to stay by my side. We didn't know what's waiting for us there,” James whispered to me.A smile formed on my lips as I noticed the worries from his reaction. James has been like this every time that we're facing a battle and I understand him for that. He's just worried about losing me.“Hey, stop worrying. Your gun would also be a great help for me later on. I will definitely use this, but it will be better if I let my wolf kill the enemies. She missed fighting,” I blurted to James.He couldn't help but shake his head while looking at me, but deep inside I know James trusted me. After all, I don't fear anything now because I know he's there for me. James will never allow something to happen to me and I won't allow something to happen to him as well.“Just be careful.
