Stella's POV

“Mom… Thank you for coming back on such short notice.” I grabbed Sherra's hand and said in a teary voice. She caressed my hair and said, “Don't be silly. There is no way we won't come to help you when you have a problem.”

I smiled until Desiree spoke up, “Girl, you should have told us this sooner that she is back. Why did you wait for so long?”

I bit down on my lips. I was the one who invited Sherra and Desiree back to the pack and told them about Emma. They already knew that she was back but we were pretending to be oblivious because they did not want to drag me.

I trust Draven, I do but for some reason… I feel like his heart is not in the right place now. If he seriously wanted to divorce Emma, he would have done it by now instead of dragging this case.

Also, there were kids involved. They were enough to make him emotional.

I said, “I did not want to cause trouble for my own selfish reasons.”

“It's not selfish.” Sherra comforted me, “Draven is yours, she stole him from

Stella walked up to us, her eyes were buried on the man in front of me.“Hello, Draven. Can I know what is happening here?” Stella stopped right next to the table and asked. She swam her eyes across me and the kids, “Out here to have lunch with the family, I see.”Draven opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but Stella spoke first, “Mind if I join? Thank you. Waiter… Can you bring me an extra chair, please?”The four of us sat there awkwardly until the staff brought a chair for her to sit.“Lovely.” She took the menu she was handed and said, “A T-bone steak with the side of mashed caulis, parmesan snap pea pasta, and sweet potato fries. Also, bring me some sorbet and tiramisu.” She handed back the menu and giggled, “What? Don’t look at me like that. I was on a diet trying to lose weight for

My eyes spread open in surprise as I recognized this, it was from the banquet.Turns out someone secretly shot a video of my and Stella's argument in the ball and posted it online. The video was circulating around and captioned as “The rumors are true, Alpha Draven and Emma Whitemane are getting divorced.”Last time when I told the media that we were getting a divorce, Draven used his influence and made every single media house delete the footage. The news never came out so the netizens never got to know that we were in the process of separating. But now, it was different!The cat was out of the bag and everyone was talking about it.

But they were determined, “Emma, either you tell me where you are on your own or I will call Draven.”My head started to hurt talking to him, I did not want them to go and bother Draven so I was forced to reveal my address.After hanging up, I asked Mrs Digory to make some extra food just in case they stayed back for dinner.

He was clutching my hand so tightly that the pain went throbbing down my veins.“Austin, what are you doing? Let her go.” My mother tried to stop him but he did not listen. He said, “You ruined the family's reputation by getting involved in that murder scandal, no one wants to marry your brother anymore. Being involved with the Sinclairs is our only way to climb back on the social ladder.”My eyes flared open, “But I didn't do it. I was wrongly accused.”“And you think any of us care?” He gritted his teeth and let go of my hand which was almost numb at this point. He said, “You caused this, now fix this too.”The couple turned around to leave and I asked, “And what if I don't?”Gamma Austin st

He was indeed here.I put on my jacket to protect myself from the cold and went out.“Miss, where are you going?” Mrs Digory, who was just coming out of the kitchen, asked me when she saw me hurrying me out. I said, “The Alpha is here to talk to me about the kid's schooling. I won't be long.”“Oh, okay.” She said before getting back to her work.As I was approaching the car, I could see his silhouette inside the car. The smoke escaping from his half-open window and the half-burnt cigarette butts near his side of the car told me that he was smoking.This did not look like a good sign to me.I heard him unlock his car as I got closer; I opened the door and went in.“Draven, what time is it? Why are you here so late.” I asked and the man did not move. He kept sucking on the cigarette as if his life depended on it.A minute passed and he still did not reply, so I asked again, “Will you tell me or should I go back inside?”“Care to tell

The usual haughty confidence that had been always there in Desiree’s eyes were replaced by flickers of shock when she us.She came to a halt right in front of us, staring at our faces as if we had caught her red handed or something.I barely had time to process her presence before Draven’s voice sliced through the tension. “What are you doing here?” Draven’s tone was sharp, authority laced in every syllable. Desiree tilted her head, an infuriating smile playing on her lips, “What does it look like? I mean, why do people even come to Hawaii? I am here for a mini vacation.” “I thought I made it very clear—no one leaves the pack.” Draven said, his voice dropping to a dangerous tone.Desiree shrugged nonchalantly, “Oh, I saw your little decree, Alpha. I just chose to ignore it.” I glanced at Draven, his jaw clenched

    Emma's POVThe security room was a cramped, dimly lit space filled with monitors and buzzing equipment. The owner fumbled with the controls, his hands shaking as he brought up the footage from the day of the kidnapping. I stood to the side, my arms wrapped tightly around myself as I watched the grainy footage play out on the screens. Her mind raced with a whirlwind of emotions—fear, hope, anger, and an overwhelming gratitude for Draven. I glanced at him out of the corner of my eye. He stood tall and unyielding, his sharp features illuminated by the flickering screens. There was something about him that made me feel safe, even in the face of the chaos surrounding us. “Here.” Draven said, pointing to one of the screens. The footage showed the children playing near the entrance of the restaurant, their laughter faint but audible. The grainy footage played on repeat, the flickering image of Asher and Ashel being dragged away at gunpoint seared into my mind. Three men—faceless, thei

    Emma's POVMy mind was unable to process what was going on. Draven asked, “So, you were not intending to return my son if I stepped down from the position?”“Yes. We don't even have your son, Alpha.” The man said.“Where is he? How can I get him back?”“No idea.” He shrugged, “Maybe the group who has your son has a second task for you.”Draven was silent for a while, staring blankly at the screen. We could feel the tension well up in the room as his gaze intensified. Suddenly, he let out a chuckle confusing everyone.He let out a cold laughter before stopping abruptly, “The day I find you, I will wipe out your entire clan.”The man grunted before saying, “We will see about that. As for now, come get your kid.”The line went silent, indicating that the call was hung up.Draven stood up and came out of the room, I rushed to him immediately. Even though I heard everything, I was still in denial that our situation was so messed up. I asked him, “How is everything? You will get the kids b

He said, “Okay, I will go now.”The Alpha played smart here and decided to attend the video call from the investigation room. Not only was there a camera to record everything, even we could watch everything unfold through the one way mirror. Before the call, Draven made sure to alter the investigation room to look more like a hotel room. He did not want the kidnappers to get the hint that we were already in talks with the cops.I was shivering involuntarily watching all of this unfold, and Alex was always there to tell me that it was alright and that we would find the kids. I didn't even have the strength in me to respond to him, all I did was nod mindlessly while my eyes were hooked on Draven.He sat down on the chair and opened the laptop in front of him. His fingers flew across the keyboard, creating a symphony out of the clicking

    Emma's POVThe tension in the air was suffocating as I paced the small room, my heart racing in sync with my restless thoughts. The kids…Draven…The pack…Everything was in shambles, all because of me. I looked at Draven, he had been silent since the call was hung up. It was worrying me more and more. I have always seen him as a man who was clear about his next move, it was my first time seeing him so clueless. It was haunting me.Alex stood by my side protectively, even though he was bleeding he refused to leave me alone. I know he was blaming himself deep down as well. Just then I saw Robin walk into the room, his pace as brisk as always.“Alpha!” He greeted Draven who was silently staring at his phone.The man nodded his head in acknowledgment and asked, “Do we have anything?”Robin nodded and said, “They were smart and kept their IP bouncing but we managed to find their location. They are in the forest near the pack.”My eyes widened, a flicker of hope piercing through the dark

It was as if he was challenging me.Before I could say anything, Emma spoke up in her meek voice, “Let's not do this here…”I gave Alex a scornful look before asking Emma why she did not heed my order and come back to the pack. The Emma I have known for so long was not this irresponsible and definitely not someone who would put our kids at risk. I was desperate to know what changed.“I did not know it was serious.”Did not think it was serious? I did not know how to react to it. How can a summon given to the entire pack by the Alpha himself not be of importance? Why would anyone think it was not important unless…My eyes widened in shock as I realised.

    Draven's POVThe sound of the private jet’s engines faded as I descended the steps onto the Hawaiian tarmac, my strides purposeful and my mind consumed with worry. I didn't even have the time to properly pack or prepare. The moment I got to know that the children were missing, everything else had ceased to matter. Emma. The kids. My entire focus was on finding them and bringing them home. The sun blazed overhead, its warmth doing nothing to thaw the ice in my veins. As I approached the sleek black SUV waiting to take me to Emma’s resort from where the kids had vanished, Robin jogged up beside me. His phone was in his hand and his serious face was grim. "I just got the word." Robin said, falling into step, “Miss Whitemane has been arrested."I froze as his words didn’t register at first, "What did you just say?""Arrested.” Robin repeated, "Apparently, she caused a scene trying to find the kids. Police didn’t take kindly to it."My jaw tightened, the veins in my neck throbbing. A

This matter seemed to require my urgent attention, so I hung up on the call and looked at him, “What happened!”The scout caught his breath and said, “We have new intel about the Rogues.”My eyebrows furrowed themselves and my ears perked up. It was never good news when it was about the Rogues.“They are rallying up into an organized force this time, not the usual scatterbrained attacks. Worse, they have a new benefactor, someone powerful enough to pull their strings.”“What?” Robin was shook. Someone was helping the Rogues? Why would anyone want to help those sinister, good for nothing?I inquired, “Are we positive?”“Yes. We are positive.” The scout, “Whatever they are planning, it is huge.”The implications were clear: danger wasn’t lurking in the shadows anymore; it was at the gates.I didn’
