~James~

‘F*ck! F*ck!’

A loud crash of a glass cup echoed inside my office. My jaw tightened, eyes darkened out of anger. Today marks the year of Emerald's disappearance. A year full of tears, regrets, and realizations.

Many things had happened with my life after my wife's disappearance. I couldn't imagine I would miss her. She was supposed to be forgotten because I had already found my mate. I thought I didn't care about her anymore, but I was wrong. I was definitely wrong for underestimating the effect of Emerald's disappearance.

My heart was torn into pieces. It is as if something is missing with me for a year now. I can't forget about her. I can't even forget her image, her beautiful smile, her care, and everything she did to me.

The guilt had been hunting me from what I did to her. It's been hunting me even when I closed my eyes. This is maybe my bad karma for wasting her.

This is my karma for rejecting her love and for letting her disappear without doing anything to stop her. I k

    ~James~I immediately stood up after I saw my private investigator, the one I hired to look for Emerald. He has finally come back after a month of no contact. I hadn't heard any news from him for a month already and when he mentioned that he knew about Emerald's information, I felt excited.“Tell me.”The investigator moved forward. He locked the door first before he spoke.“We have a problem, Alpha James,” Levi uttered in his sad voice. I furrowed my brows, my hands clenched beneath the table. My eyes didn't break on him. I wanted to know everything he has about my wife.When Emerald disappeared from my life, I realized that I still love her. She was my heart ever wanted, and this is my biggest regret. I regretted that I realized how important she is in my life. The moment I learned where she was, I will never waste time to find her. I have to get her back.‘I hope you're not late, yet,’ Logan mumbled through my head. I just shake him off and wait for Levi's explanation. “Your wife

    ~Emerald~“Is that what you've got?”I gritted my teeth when these words came out from Selene's mouth. She's the head of the warrior wolves of Alpha Gideon, the one who was entrusted to train the newbies. Alpha Gideon assigned Selene to train me, and she's been so tough with me.I have been doing my best to catch up with her lessons, but I can't understand why she's so tough with me.‘She likes Gideon, remember?’I tilted my head when I heard what Lilian had told me. She reminded me about what we found out before. Selene secretly adores Alpha Gideon. I understand now her reason for treating me like this. ‘I don't care about her feelings for the Alpha. She should separate her personal problems with work!’ I uttered through a mind communication.‘Well, we can't blame her. She's just desperate to hurt you knowing how the Alpha cared for you.’I just shook my head at Lilian's last sentence. My focus went back to Selene, who was grinning already. I fell to the ground, and I did not avoid

    ~Emerald~I could still hear Selene's screams and cursed at the back from what I did to her. She can't accept the fact that a weak wolf like me will bite her arm. I don't want to do it with her but she pushed me to limits. She attacked me first and I just did what I was supposed to do to protect myself.“I can't believe the reaction from her face when I bit her, Emerald!” Lilian uttered while laughing. I shook my head, my lips curled.“I was even surprised that we did it with her, knowing that she was the head warrior of Gideon's men.” I uttered towards Lilian.She continued laughing, still can't believe what we did. I walked straight to my cabin where Cassandra was. My heart almost melted when I saw my child, Jacob in his crib with Cassandra beside him. Cassandra lifted her head and placed a smile on her lips.“How's the training, Emerald?” Cassandra looked at me while smiling.I forced a smile and walked towards my son's direction. He was sleeping, and I couldn't stop looking at J

    ~Gideon~“Why do you have to do this to me, Gideon!?”I closed the book that I was reading about dark magic just to look at the woman who just arrived inside my office. My brows were furrowed when I saw Selene, her eyes covered with tears.She was crying like a weak bullsh*t. I rose from sitting to face her, my arms were crossed.“You dared to hurt Emerald, remember?” I asked in my cold tone. Selene messed up her hair out of distressed. I can't stop shaking my head while looking at her. “It's because she was trying to take you from me. You promised me, Gideon, that you will make me your Luna. You told me that you will marry me if I do what you want!” Selene growled.I shook my head in disbelief, not taking my eyes off her. I can't imagine she can still remember the things that I promised to her a year ago. It's supposed to be forgotten because things have changed now. My plans from a year ago had already changed when Emerald came into my life.“I didn't mean it, Selene. None of it

    ~James~My eyes darkened when I saw someone coming in our direction. My wolf wanted to take over to attack him, but I did my best to control it. This is not the right time for an attack. I came here to talk to Gideon at peace, but if he tried to attack me, then I will not back off. ‘Are you really sure with your plans, James?’ Logan asked at the back of my head. I could feel my lips curled, my eyes in Gideon's direction. He is coming to me with his men beside him. I am glad that his beta follows orders from the Alpha King.‘There is no turning back, Logan. I will take my wife from him and I will not leave, not until I bring her with me.’My wolf had no choice but to let out a sigh. He can't do anything to stop me with my plans. I was the one who can decide, and he has to follow me.“He's coming near us, James.”I turned my head at Levi. He moved closer to me, as well as my other men at the back. I know they are trying to protect me, but there's nothing to fear. Alpha Gideon is a sma

    ~James~My head tilted towards Gideon. I stared at him straight in the eyes to see if he meant the words he uttered a while ago.My jaw tightened as I continued looking at him. It took me a minute before I was able to understand what he meant.“What did you just say, Gideon?” I asked in my warning tone. Gideon shook his head as if he couldn't believe to see my reaction. I know what he said, but I wanted to know if he was serious about it.“I know you have a sharp mind, James. You know what I mean, and we are talking about Emerald here. The woman you dumped like garbage just because of your fated mate. The woman whose life became terrible because of you. The woman… I took away from the forest to give her shelter, to give her a new hope, and to let her know that somebody still cares for her.”I was stunned. I never expected to hear all of these from Gideon, the demon wolf that everyone knew. If what he said was true that he took Emerald from the forest, there could be a payment for it.

    ~Emerald~“Everyone, prepare!”The demanding voice of the new head warrior suddenly echoes through my head. My attention turned to her and did what she said.Three days had already passed when Gideon assigned a new head warrior to train us. She's bold, fierce, strong, and professional unlike Selene. Her dedication towards her works helped all the newbies to catch up everything she wanted us to learn. I had learned a lot from her within three days during her leadership. There was already an improvement to me. I can feel it deep inside. I can tell it the way I moved. The Emerald who was known as weak she-wolf was getting bolder now. ‘You should take a rest, Emerald,’ Lilian uttered at the back of my head. I immediately shook my head to disagree. Resting is not in my vocabulary. I have to work hard to learn basic attacks, so I would have a skill to use if ever enemies would try to kill me. ‘I needed this, Lilian. I should not always depend on you. You are not always strong, especiall

    ~Emerald~“You won't believe who's here!”“Oh, I heard that. I actually saw him earlier!”“I still can't believe that he was actually here in our pack. Alpha Gideon let him come here.” My heartbeat raced when I heard these words from the group of wolves I met on the way. They stopped talking when they noticed my presence that made my brows furrowed.I shook my head and continued walking. Alpha Gideon has a visitor and based on how the wolves described him, I know the visitor is not ordinary. He was powerful and important, and it's no longer my concern.I have no right to know who that visitor is and as long as my son and I are safe, that's all that matters to me the most.“I felt something unusual with that visitor thing, Emerald,” Lilian uttered.I stopped walking, my heart pounding so fast again. Lilian's instinct is strong. If she said something is wrong, there might be a possibility that it's true. I also could feel it just the way those wolves described the visitor.There were m

    ~Emerald~The hope in my heart started to disappear as there was no hint of change from James. He looked so mad while he kept looking at me. I can see it from his eyes. Although he screamed at first, he turned back into his normal expression again. He started stomping his feet in my direction, making me step forward. I couldn't read whatever was in his mind right now. James is hard to predict. “I did love you?” He sneered, still stepping into my direction. I gulped at him, my heart continued pounding so fast. I never stopped stepping on my feet until he finally cornered me. My back hit the hard cement, while James is already an inch away from me. The pounding of my heart continues, and James is still sneering as he grabs my hand.“Answer me…” He muttered, his tone seems so cold until now. “Did I say I loved you?” My mouth agape as I looked at him deep into his eyes. It feels weird. The hard reaction from his face earlier suddenly softened. “What are—” Just before I could contin

    ~Emerald~The shape-shifter didn't expect what Lilian did to her. She jumped into her direction, making her stunned. As she was about to react, Lilian attacked her with her long claws. She fell on the ground, her breathing became heavy as she looked at me. Lilian smirked, shutting her with a piercing look. “Where's your courage earlier, Shape-shifter?” Lilian mumbled at her. “Do you think you can kill me with that!?” She answered, and prepared herself to stand up. However, Lilian blocked her way, making her stop from her attempt to get up. “Emerald mentioned earlier that she wanted to kill you slowly, but we are running out of time. You have to die now for being the reason for her miscarriage and for putting her loved ones at risk. Say goodbye to your kind now, Shape-shifter.” After Lilian said these words, she targeted the shape-shifter to her heart, causing her death to be easy. The woman is already dead and now covered with blood. At this point, Lilian turned back. I was alre

    ~Emerald~The person behind Althea's identity showed her face to me. I felt my mouth widened upon seeing her real face. She is not familiar to me, and I am certain that I have never met her before.“Are you amazed how good we are?” She smirked, a sneer forming her lips.I gritted my teeth and asked, “I wasn't amazed by your face. I just wondered what we did to you for doing all of this. How on earth did you make the Alpha King follow you!?”When she heard me speak, she started laughing as if those words were the funniest statement she ever heard in her life. I could feel my blood boil in rage because of her.“I bet you knew your husband that well? He wouldn't become the most fearful of wolves for nothing, and he wouldn't have his position if he never attacked anyone before,” she answered curtly.I pressed my lips together, while looking at her straight in the eyes. I don't know her name yet, and there's no point in knowing it. She will die anyway.“Of course, I know him. James would n

    ~Emerald~A sneer formed on my lips after my vision showed me what actually happened. It's been a while that my vision never showed me anything. Starting from that moment when Althea arrived at the surprise party that James prepared for me, he was already being used by a spell to his drink.My vision never showed me who's behind this but one thing I knew for sure. Whoever was behind James' spell, she's so powerful that she was able to make him follow every word she said.The reason James left me after I helped Althea was actually her command and the cause of my severe bleeding. All the painful words, the blaming, and his weird actions were not James' will. My husband would never do this to me, to us. He promised me that whatever happens, his love for me would never disappear.And I was so stupid for believing the receivers who are controlling them now. I was so stupid for not knowing it early. Damn it!‘I'm sorry, Emerald. I failed to know about this as well. If I just had the ability

    ~Emerald~“Who are you!?”I screamed in anger toward the voice in my head. I don't know how he got in here and what he wanted from me.“It's not necessary for you to find out about who I am. You should be thinking about your husband having fun while you were there, crying and blaming yourself.” I grit my teeth as these words flashes into my mind. My hands clenched, anger started boiling within me. I glanced at the door and then back to the cabinet where guns are. I could feel my eyes start to darken, while my heart became numb. All the things that James did to me after my miscarriage and the way he treated me differently, I would never let that pass. I will teach him a lesson. A lesson that would wake him up that I will not be kind every day.“That's right, Emerald. Kill him and if you can, also kill your friends. They abandon you at loss, while they are having fun.”I sneered, after hearing these words and now, I started stepping my feet away from the room. Seems like my drunkennes

    ~Emerald~I went back inside the house, still with my dark reaction. All the things that James uttered to me still flashing back into my head. I couldn't forget it. Seems like it's making my blood boil.“Emerald!”I suddenly stopped from walking when I heard James' voice. He followed me and now looked at me in his dangerous reaction. Behind him were our friends. Cassandra looked at me with worries written on her face. She walked towards me to take Jacob away from us.“I'll be there for you, Emerald,” Cassandra whispered.I just glanced at her and didn't say anything. Cassandra couldn't do anything to fight against James. I know she will stay neutral because James was still the Alpha King.‘Emerald, stop. You're thinking negatively!’ Lilian complained, but I just shook her away.My heart started to numb as to what they are doing to me. I still remember how they walked away, leaving me alone in the garden. I f*cking bleed, and it was the reason that I lost my child.“What do you want, J

    ~Emerald~One week had passed by for me to fully recover from my miscarriage. In that whole week, I have never found James' anymore. He never checked on me and didn't even sleep with me. Even if it's painful, I manage to calm myself because I know his anger towards me is reasonable.He was still blaming me for my miscarriage. I never ever wanted to have a miscarriage. It just happened so fast and now, many things have happened.Althea was released from her cell. I heard that she was released by James and good for her because she had finally changed. Althea always visited me in my room, asking me how I feel, and she even asked for forgiveness.Althea also blamed herself with my miscarriage, but she should not. It has nothing to do with her. I have never regretted the kindness I showed her.Today, it's the very first moment I will be showing my face to everyone. Life must go on even though it's still so painful on me. I still have my son and Jacob needed his mother back. He needed more

    ~Emerald~Those words that Cassandra had uttered did a strike into my heart. I could feel my heart stop beating for a moment, while my tears kept streaming down my eyes several times.“You're kidding me, right?” I mumbled, still can't believe what just Cassandra had told me.However, Cassandra never laughed. She looked at me, her eyes filled with sadness. That was when I started sobbing when I realized that she's not joking at all.I felt so numb. I couldn't move my body as I felt like I was getting stuck on the bed. This information she told me seems like a sharp knife, slowly cutting my whole body.“I'm sorry, Emerald. This is what the doctor had said. You have a severe bleeding, which became the reason for you to lose your child. She did her best to help you not to lose it, but she failed. The pack doctor explained to us even before you bleed, you already had a problem with your uterus. The baby's hold in your womb is just so weak.” Cassandra explained.Every word she let out was l

    ~Emerald~“Emerald, it's fine. Just give me to them. Let's just wait for that person who can erase my memories here.”A deep and heavy breath escaped from my mouth when I heard what Althea had uttered. I was so happy with her because she willingly accepted her fate. She never did anything to decline this, and she really proved that she has changed now.“You will have your freedom soon, Althea. We just have to find someone who can alter your memories with us, and you can go back to your world again,” I muttered, and Althea smiled at me.She turned her head at Cassandra and Katie's direction. Althea smiled at them before she left with the warriors. At this point, we watched Althea being taken by the warriors to put her in the dungeon.As she disappeared from our sight, I turned my head to James. His reaction remained indifferent, and I know this has something to do from what happened earlier.“Did you know that what you did earlier is risky?” James asserted, and I bit my lower lips.I j
