Emerald Bright Pack

I ran my fingertips over the note, my eyes tracing the words written upon it.

“Don’t leave the territory until I return. Wait for me.”

My heart raced once more. Who was supposed to wait for him? Why was he behaving so strangely? Hadn’t anyone told this hunter how illegible his handwriting was?

I raised my hand to crumple the note to toss it away, but hesitated. Despite the pack being on high alert, teetering on the brink of attack with sadness permeating the air, this note that he had left seemed to provide some semblance of companionship, urging me to endure just a little longer. It helped me to feel less alone.

THE drog the note tightly in my fist, I leaned back against the cold wall outside the children’s

upon my heart sank even further. I glanced up at the window, where nothing but darkness –

d me. Willow was in danger…

Tightly my eyes, I tried to shut out the world around me, but the voices of Alpha

Louis and Alpha Adam penetrated my consciousness. Both men were seated on the other side of Wyatt and Lori’s bed, their conversation filling the room.

“When you weren’t around, I tried to explain to Reuben about the danger surrounding Willow, that it would consume everything if he kept her in his life. Of course, he was too obsessed to listen. Now his children are knocking on death’s door and that girl is taken away,” Alpha Adam’s voice was low and filled with regret as he observed the children struggling to breathe. Alpha Louis had been released from the Emerald Bright prison some time ago by Alpha Adam.

“The issue isn’t the girl herself, it’s the evil blood coursing through her veins,” Alpha Louis

remarked.

“Evil blood? Why is that a problem? Wasn’t it Elder Frank who said the evil blood was dormant inside her? Due to that fact, she’s as ordinary as the rest of us,” Alpha Adam countered.

“Yes, Frank said it’s dormant, but Dark is after Willow because of her evil blood. That means it can be awakened inside her somehow, someday,” Alpha Louis predicted, his voice tinged with uncertainty, yet his words caught my attention.

“What will happen if that evil blood awakens inside her?” Alpha Adam inquired.

The two men exchanged a silent glance, the tension in the air palpable as they contemplated

the dire possibilities. “Let’s just hope it never happens because she may become another Dark,” Alpha Louis replied, his voice low and tinged with fear at the potential consequences for everyone involved.

I could no longer stay calm and entered the room, ” Alpha Louis,” I walked into the middle of the room and asked, “You have seen Dark once. He is clearly a dangerous person, and I have never seen him before. However, Reuben called you for the first time in five years, setting aside his resentment and hatred for you. It must be because of Dark. Who is Dark, Alpha Louis? What exactly is he?” I questioned impatiently, ignoring Alpha Adam completely.

Alpha Louis was silent for a long time as if he was struggling with the memories before he replied, “Dark is someone’s darkest desires. He was born of greed, anger, and hatred,” he said, taking the small hands of the innocent children lying on the bed before he continued. “Years ago, a 17–year– old young man, consumed by the greed of unimaginable power and the desire to claim everything in this world, managed to call forth evil by using forbidden methods. He wished to become immortal and the strongest wolf in the realm. However, evil is evil. It demanded something valuable and irreplaceable in trade. Blinded by desire, he offered his royal powers, which he had inherited at birth. It resulted in the birth of the evilest being in existence in the realm, Dark. Dark was originally the 17–year–old man’s wolf, just separated from his body. That’s why he was considered a ghost. The man and his wolf became two separate beings, unaware of each other’s actions, acting on their own, it was from this point that the disaster started.

“Dark is a walking monstrosity devoid of emotion, driven solely by a primal lust for the malevolent blood coursing through Willow. Through merciless slaughter and wanton destruction, Dark has

power over the years. Furthermore, his lupine

nature grants him abilities akin to specters.”

My mouth fell slightly agape upon learning of Dark’s true nature. He was indeed a werewolf, but unlike any we had encountered before. He existed apart from his physical form, a profound aberration.

“If he poses such a dire threat, is there a means to vanquish him?” I inquired.

“I don’t know,” he replied with a solemn shake of his head.

I was taken aback. “You know this much about Dark but you don’t know…” I bit my lip, stopping myself from speaking carelessly. Over the past few years Alpha Louis had cut himself off from the werewolf wolf, he had no idea of what was going on in the werewolves pack or mysterious attacks.

He looked at me, understanding my thoughts, “I wish I knew the answer to your questions but like me he had also disappeared for years. Of course, his reasons for vanishing seem to be different from mine. For years he never aged and was seventeen years old but looked like in his mid twenties. However, after meeting Willow he seems to have begun to age normally. He is no longer seventeen but around his late twenties. This is all because of Willow. She is a blessing to him and that is one of the reasons he wants her. We also don’t know what other value Willow holds for Dark,” he explained.

The room fell into grave silence.

“Then… do you know who Dark is?” I questioned but once Alpha Louis revealed his name, was completely blown away. Everything was fucked

1. up.

I wanted to do everything within my power to aid Reuben just like he had for me. His loss was no less than mine. We both were wounded and I wanted to heal him with my love but I had nothing to heal.

“So beautiful,” Dark smiled, his gaze stripping me not only of this gown but of my dignity. He gestured to me to come closer. I dug my sharp claws into the bouquet that I was holding as I slowly made my way close to him.

“Tonight we will become one and there will only be the two of us,” he remarked, extending his hand out to me.

I look at his hand while slowly clutching the bouquet. Just as I extended my hand to take his, the large door behind us was flung open and a voice came.

“I am disappointed that I was not invited.”

I froze in place, my hand paused before it could land in Dark’s the second I heard Reuben’s voice. I immediately looked back to find him entering the room with his entire torso covered in blood, he appeared disheveled yet he stood as strong as a mountain.

“Reuben…” the bouquet dropped from my hand when our eyes met. My heart ached with yearning. After six days… I finally got to see him.

How had he gotten in here? How had he found me? Time seemed to stand still for me, all I wanted was to run over and hug him tight but Dark growled from behind me, clearly furiously. “How the fuck did you get in here?” he glared at Reuben.

Reuben chuckled as he lit a cigarette, “You are bringing a new wife into our family that was originally my soulmate, I thought that I should definitely be in attendance for the occasion…

uncle.”

Reuben’s voice echoed in the room. Once I heard him address Dark as his uncle, it felt like a ton of bricks had fallen on my head.

Shocked, I immediately looked back at Dark, my eyes as wide as an owl’s. Dark was…

Reuben’s uncle… the Alpha King.
