Emma's POV

I felt the tip of my fingers freeze as if they had been stuck inside the fridge.

The Annual Ball was considered to be the most important event of the Council with a lot of VIPs attending it. I was a nobody, how would I even fit in there?

Alex then said, "This year, I am hosting the Ball and representing the Werewolf Council. So I need to have a beautiful lady accompanying me."

"Is that why you are inviting me? Because you believe I am beautiful?"

"What else? You are not some kind hearted medical genius, are you?" He said with a straight face before both of us started laughing.

I said, "Congratulations on hosting the Ball this year, Alex. I appreciate the invitation but I don't think it is a good idea."

"Why?" He crossed his arms around his chest, interrogating me like a school kid.

So when he was asking me to be ready at this hour of the day, I was not surprised.I slipped into my jeans and put on a shirt, tied my hair up in a ponytail.My phone rang, indicating an incoming video call. My face immediately lit up at the sight of my two kids on the screen."Hi, mommy!!!!" Ashel squealed. Compared to her, Asher looked very less excited but I could say he was happy to see me."Hello, babies. How are you? Did you have your dinner?" I asked."We are good." Ashel said and started, "Dad got the cook to make us some French dishes."I controlled my sneer and said, "Did he now?""Yes, it was delicious. And you know what happened today.

He came to the other side of the car and opened the door for me.I was confused, “What are we doing?”He helped me out of the car, explaining, “I got the mall to reopen.”“You did what?” A mask of surprise appeared on my face. Did he just say that he got the mall to remain open? As soon as he said it, the door of the mall was pulled open and two gentlemen donning suits came out. Both looked distinguished and I could say by their aura that they were important people.One of them started, “Mr Frost. Miss Whitemane. Welcome to our mall. I am Vance Digory, the Manager of this Mall. And this is my assistant, Francis.”“Hello.” I nodded, hiding partially behind Alex.Francis spoke up, “Mr Fors

And honestly, even if it was safe, I could not go there.My father was against me getting back together with Draven.

    Emma's POVI was stunned at Alex’s answer; it started off normally but he ended it in a vague way. As soon as these words left his mouth, the reporters started to note them down furiously. This moment I knew what would be the front page headline in tomorrow’s newspaper. Alex excused us and folded up the interview, all this while I kept a pretentious smile on my face. We hooked hands and went inside the lobby, when I made sure that no one could hear us, I asked, “What was that?”“What was what?”“Your answer. You just gave them a free scoop.” I said.“No, I did not.

I just said that it could also be me.”“Yeah… But… We are not ever gonna date, Alex. we are just friends.” I said hesitantly.

The housekeepers were eerily quiet as they did their work and looked as if they were under some pressure.I removed my bag and kept it on the floor, asking, “Hey, what is wrong? Why do you all look so weird?”Jada, who was busy changing the tablecloth, shivered visibly when I spoke up. “Miss Whitemane…” She spoke softly, a mask of fear in her face.I furrowed, seeing her change the tablecloth. I asked, “What are you doing? Why are you tidying up the table out of the blue? And where did you get that tablecloth from, don't remember buying it.”“Because I asked her to.” Draven spoke up from behind me, scaring the literal hell ou

Xavier asked what I wanted to eat and was waiting for my answer which, obviously, he didn't get because I was lost in thoughts.Seeing that I was replying, he looked back and asked, “Are you okay, doll?”I shook from my fantasies and nodded, “I am sorry, I was thinking something.Xavier smirked cheekily as if he had read my thoughts and said, “No problem. I can go over all this again if you want.”“No. I don't want you to waste any more of your time.” I took the menu from his hand and admitted defeat, “Can you just suggest me beginner-friendly dishes?”“Umm… I don't know your tast

No wonder you said you liked working.” The man commented.I nodded with a smile, “They are the only people in this pack who actually treat me with respect. For others, my existence is not even worth acknowledging.”“What are you saying? I heard you did a lot of things for the pack. You even solved some rogue issue.”“Yeah, I did.” I said, “It was just a two-day pomp and joy. After the sand settled, I was back to being the plain, old, wolfless girl hated by the entire pack.”Xavier did not say anything about the fact that I was wolfless. So I asked, “You have nothing to say?”“About what?”“Me being wolfless.”“I don't care about it.” He said, “You are better than many wolves I know.”I smiled to conceal my self-pity, “That is what I tell myself to.” Neither of us was d

I had no idea that Xavier had bought Florence, but I wasn't surprised; he had already mentioned that he was here to expand his business. What better way to expand your business than by buying the largest commercial hub of the pack?The words that XS bought the bar quickly spread amongst the group and it caused a whole other set of arguments.“Ain’t no way he is Xavier Stone!”“He could be.

I have seen plenty like you; you get your sugar daddy to get you the membership and walk in with your poor etiquette, corrupting the whole environment.”“Mister, watch your tone.” Sonia stepped in to defend me, “You can't just bad mouth us by assuming random things.”“I am assuming?” The guard laughed, “Florence is not a place everyone can hang out in.
