Emma's POV

“Yes, I just got off the phone with my colleague. Alpha Draven came over to the office and talked to the higher-ups on your behalf.” Alex said.

I was both shocked and curious, “What did he say?”

“I don't know much but if we were to believe my coworker, he convinced the council to give you some time to prove your innocence.”

“I see.”

The man then asked, “How are you now? Natalie told me that you almost got yourself killed.”

“Yeah.” I chuckled, “It was foolish of me. Lesson learned, never go inside the crowd who are thirsty for your blood.”

Alex also said that when he watched the interview with Doctor James, he had nothing but praise for him, “Your boss is a good man.”

I looked at Doctor James who was standing in a distance and talking to someone on the call. I smiled, “Yes, I did not expect to receive so much support from him.”

“We all stand with you, Emma. Don't worry! Everything will be alright.”

By the time I hung up, Ducian hung up on the call too. He came to us looking

    Emma's POVThe next day…I changed my hospital gown and headed downstairs for breakfast. I was feeling a lot better than yesterday so was able to move around. Sonia was accompanying me and we were chatting about something random when Merely came in rushing, “Emma! Emma! Emma!”“Woah, slow down! What happened!”“You won't believe who the Alpha has called to examine Iniya.” She said, her time hardly able to contain the admiration.“Who is it?”“It's Alan Portman.”I choked on my coffee, “Alan Portman? As in the Alan Portman?”“Yes!”“Are you kidding me?” Sonia too was shocked. The girl shook her head and said, “I am not. I just saw him in Doctor James's office, they were discussing the case.”I could not believe it. Alan Portman was a celebrity in the doctor's world. A world-renowned doctor from London who was known for his excellence and achievements in the medical field. Every young doctor aspired to become at least half as good as him. “How did Draven manage to call him?” I was

He was the one who took me back home too!As soon as I reached home, I had both Ashel and Asher welcome me at the door with balloons and flowers. They immediately ran into my hands, Asher said, “Mommy, don't even do that again.”I caressed the back of their head with my palm. Both of them were scared and I felt terrible for making them go through this.I promised them that I would be more careful next time. After dropping me off, Draven did not stick there any longer. He said that he had some urgent work and drove off. Alex and Natalie came to visit me! I said, “Alex, didn't you come back to the pack this morning?” I asked as I guided them to the couch.He said, “Yes but I was worried about you.

    Emma's POVMidway, the conversation suddenly shifted to me. My mother asked, “We heard about the scandal. We were so worried! Good thing Draven had your back or else you would have been wrongly accused.”Draven replied, “I did not do anything. Emma was innocent, truth would have come out one way or another.”“No, Draven. You are just being humble.” He said, “You have taken good care of Emma and we are thankful for it. We could not ask for a better son-in-law.”I clenched my fist, how could they lie so well?Draven let out a small smile and did not say anything. The housekeeper notified us that the lunch was ready. As soon as I looked at the antique dining table which has been in this family for several generations now, I was reminded of my childhood. In this large table which could accommodate 16 people, I would be asked to sit on the farthest chair. While my parents and Erold would be enjoying their meal like a happy family, I would be made to eat in the cold corner.I blinked and s

    Emma's POVAs soon as Draven’s words fell, my parents’ faces lit up like a bloody Christmas tree. They said, “Did you not see the news? The rumors of your divorce are the latest talk of the town.”“Wow, I never knew that.” He commented nonchalantly before dealing with his cards.My mind was a mess right now and I was compelled to interrupt.I said, “Draven. What are you talking about? Weren't we going to get a divorce?”“That was just a misunderstanding.” He looked at my parents and said, “Emma was upset with me because of a few things and impulsively wanted to get a divorce but everything is okay now. We are working on our relationship.”“Good good!” My mother said, “I don't understand the system of divorce. If the Moon Goddess has brought you together, it is a blessing. One should not irrationally end a marriage and bring disgrace to her blessing.”I glared at the man sitting next to me. If I could, I wanted to dig all my nails on his neck and drink his blood.Now there was no way I

While I was doing it, Doctor James came in. He said, “Welcome back to the hospital.”“Doctor James! So good to see you.”“So good to see you too. The West Wing missed you.” He shoved his hands inside his coat and said.I smiled, “Thank you. I missed working too. Doctor James, it was brutal of you to have asked me to take a leave for a week.”He interrupted me and said, “You don't have to be so formal with me anymore.”“What do you mean?”“I mean don't call me Doctor James anymore.

    Emma's POVI did not have the kind of dress that one would wear to the Seductive Fox. This club was unlike any other club where you can just walk in wearing whatever you want. It was frequented by the people of the higher society so the dress code was very important.I called Natalie and asked her if I could borrow one of her dresses, and she gladly agreed. Even the kids did not make a fuss when I told them that I would have to stall the game night. In turn, they asked me to have fun and not worry about them.I caught a cab to the club and went in. I had to show my identity card to be let in. It was my first time visiting this place and I was not surprised, it was just like how you would stereotypical rich club to be.Expensive drinks, expensive techno music, and old, rich men blowing their money on beautiful, skinny strippers.

Since everyone was busy with their own party, the washroom block was pretty empty.I was in the middle of washing my hands when suddenly, I heard some noise outside. “Hello? Who is there?” I called out and heard no reply. Assuming that it was all in my head, I went back to washing my hand but before I could realize what happened, I saw a man covered in blood stumbling inside the washroom block.I shrank back in fear and did not dare to make a sound. That man glanced at me and without saying a word, grabbed me by the hand and pulled me into one of the cubicles.“Hey, who are you? What are you doing?’I struggled as he locked the door behind himse

    Emma's POVDraven walked to the front and said, “I think that is enough. You will get dizzy.”“No, I am never getting off of this.” I said at the top of my voice. His face was clouding with worry seeing how fast this was going. He said, “Emma, I am serious. Get down! I don't have a good feeling about this.”“What are you worried about?” Just as soon as I said this, my hands slipped off the bar and I went flying off the swing.“Careful!” Time seemed to have slowed down as I found myself falling towards the ground. I closed my eyes, preparing myself to hit the ground but instead of the cold, hard ground, I fell on something soft but rigid.I stayed there for a while, feeling two arms tightening their grip around me. That was when I opened my eyes to see Draven heaving, there was a mask of fear and worry on his face.He somehow managed to work fast and grab me, saving me from falling off and breaking my nose.His clutch was so tight that I felt like my bones were about to crush.

Even though they adopted me and let me live with them, I was still an outsider.”“I am sorry you had to go through that.”“No no! Why are you sorry? Even you had a shitty childhood growing up.” I smiled at him, “It used to bother me once upon a time but it doesn't matter anymore.”“Yeah.” He took the last bite of his meal and said, “There is nothing we can do about it. It's long gone.”I opened my mouth to agree with him but shut up immediately when I remembered something. I put down my fork and grinned at him, “Let's go!”“Where?” I got up from my seat and grabbed his hand, “Let's go!”“But your food…”“Let's go go go!”I starte

He walked up to my side and opened the car door, silently asking me to step out.I crossed my arms and turned away, “No. I am good.”“You haven't eaten anything since afternoon.”“I am not hungry.”I heard his wolf groan in frustration but there was no expression on Draven's face. He was calm as usual.Just when I thought that he had given up, he swiftly unbuckled my seatbelt and picked me up in his arms again. Before I could even realize it, I was dangling over his shoulder and watching him carry me inside.“Draven, you creep! Put me down.” He turned a deaf ear against my protest and carried me inside the cafe. We were inside now and the weird way he was carrying me attracted everyone’s attention. The guests stopped what they were doing and stared at us in confusion.“Alpha?” One of the customers asked, “Is everything alright?”“Yes.” He replied, “My wife is just upset. You can all go back to your work.”My f

    Emma's POVThe empty street was flooding white by the petite snowflakes and the temperature was dropping drastically. I was wearing a simple sweater and it did not prove to be very helpful in keeping me warm. In no time, I was standing on the street, covered in snow and shivering.Fifteen minutes passed by, and I still had not managed to find a cab for myself. They were just mercilessly driving past me, not even caring that I was all alone and freezing.“Hey stop! Please! Asshole!” I cursed at the fifth cab which drove past me.My fingers were numb at this point and I needed warmth. Even rubbing them together or keeping them under my arm wasn't helping me much.I turned around to look at the pack house, how badly I wished to run inside and take cover but my ego would rather make me collapse than ask for help. The snow seemed to be messing with the network reception, neither was I able to access the internet to book a cab or call anyone to come pick me up.I was truly stuck…There was

    Emma's POVDraven and I continued with our work, even though we were in the same cabin, we did not talk. He was busy with his phone call meetings and I was busy with my head buried in the documents. He had just gotten off a phone call and had just kept his phone down. I asked, “Is everything sorted?”“Yes.” He nodded, “Everything is smooth so far. The extra reinforcement we are sending to the borders will reach there on time. I think everything is pretty much good. What about you?”“Just a few more documents and I am done too.”Draven nodded and leaned back on his chair, “Thank you for helping me out. I could not have done it without you.”I blushed; it felt good to have been praised by the almighty Alpha himself, who cherished his words like gold.In the past few days, while observing Draven and his work from a close proximity, I could not help but feel pity. Even when preparing for the festival, he had to go out every now and then to take care of his last minute Alpha duties. Even

    Emma's POVA week passed by and I have no idea if Alexandr talked to Desiree or not. What I do know is Draven has taken back his case and he is no longer suing me. But he made sure to tell it to me clearly that if I try to pull any stunt on the day of the festival, he will make sure I pay for it.Asher and Ashel were excited about the festival, surprisingly. They were not looking forward to seeing their father but the festival itself. They had heard about it a lot growing up, and to experience it first-hand was something they were looking forward to.The costume that we wear on the day of the festival was specially made. Draven sent a dress designer to my house the very next day to get my measurements. He did not want any kind of delay or mishap on the day of the festival and was taking extreme precautions for it.Everyone in the hospital was pleasantly surprised that I would be hosting the festival this year and told me they were looking forward to it too.The whole pack was in the f

    Emma's POVI squinted my eyes and shook my head in confusion, “Because of me?”She nodded, “Yes.” And proceeded to tell me what had happened and what all he had told her. I did not know how to react or what to say. To be honest, it seems reasonable. I would have done the same for him, I would never be friends with Alex's enemies. But how can I say it to Desiree without sounding mean?I replied diplomatically, “Maybe he is not trying to give up on his friend just like how you did not give up on Stella.”“No. You can't say that.” She protested, “Stella is in a coma, but I am here, talking to you and apologizing to him. Do you still think I support her?”What she said was thought provoking and I was rendered speechless again.Desiree said, “I know I have been troublesome in the past but it was just because of plain hatred. I am not heartless enough to support someone who tried to kill someone.”I nodded my head, “I think I might have had a wrong impression on you, after all.”“You do.”
