Ducian's POV

It was not a very regular day at work for me. Emma was coming back to the hospital after serving the Alpha for three whole days. I never thought that I would say this about a woman but I missed her.

I was not very sure about the Alpha's intentions either.

The last I heard the rumors, Draven and Emma were getting a divorce. Things were nasty between them but something seemed to have changed. Judging by the way Emma just wanted to run away from the responsibility despite being the most professional out of us all, she seemed to hate being near the Alpha but he kept insisting.

As a man, I could say that his intentions did not seem very stable regarding Emma.

I don't know what was going on between them and I did not have any right to comment on it but some part of me was jealous. I was jealous of how the Alpha was able to dictate all this and make her listen to him like a puppet.

I did not want to share Emma with anyone! She was not even mine but I was very possessive of her.

    Ducian's POVMy brain froze and I did not know what to say. And what was with the weird expression on her face? Is she thinking that I am some womanizer, meeting women at my office?I did not want both of us to stare at each other awkwardly. If I could, I would just go back in time and stop myself from meeting Romona in the hospital. But since I could not because of scientific limitations, I chose to break the ice and asked, “Emma, what are you doing here?”She immediately replied, “Doctor James, I swear to you I did not mean to eavesdrop.”She was not even looking into my eyes.Great, now she doesn't even want to see me, is she that disgusted?I panicked and immediately explained, “No, it's okay. There is nothing going on between me and her. She is just a family friend.”“Oh.” Her reply was bland and uninteresting. It was as if she wasn't even willing to listen to me, let alone believe my words.I panicked more!Was this the end of me and her? It did not even start yet and she was end

    Emma's POVAs my phone was ringing, my grip on it was tightening involuntarily and I slipped into a trance wondering if I should pick up the call or not. I broke out of my thoughts when my phone buzzed halfway through the call. It was him, saying- Pick up, I won't bite.I gulped and with trembling fingers proceeded to answer the call.I put it against my ear and muttered, “Hello.”There was no sound from the other side of the phone and it was eerily silent. I don't know why but a fear of something was growing inside me. This was a bad idea. I said in my head. This was a very bad idea!It was going to be a little over thirty seconds but there was still no response. It was not that there was complete nothingness on the other side of the phone.He was there. I could feel his dominating and ominous aura. He was lurking in the shadows as if he was watching his prey and waiting to hunt them.When I did not receive any response, I said, “Is anyone there?”Just then, a voice as deep as the t

    Emma's POVMy hand slightly trembled and I had to tighten my hold on my phone involuntarily lest it slip out of my grip. His words spiraled inside my head and for a moment I could not believe in my ears.Did he really say he knows the person responsible for the crash?Does this mean that I was right?It was not just a mere accident but a carefully planned assassination attempt.Every realization came concaving down on me, and I stood up as if I had been pricked. The silence of the call was disturbed by his lazy giggle, “You did not know, huh?”“I had a doubt but… never mind.” I did not want to tell him anything right now as there was something more important, “Tell me who was it?”“Woah, right to the business.” He commented.I replied, “I could have died that day. Do you understand the seriousness of this?”“But you did not die, so it is no longer important.”“It is.” I said, “There is someone out there who is trying to kill me. I need to catch him before he harms me and my kids again

    Emma's POVI pursed my lips as my eyes squinted themselves. “How do you know that he won't try to harm me?”His voice turned more and more serious as he uttered these words, “I won't let anything in this world touch even a strand of your hair.”Goosebumps.I felt goosebumps surfaced all over my body when he said something like this. Since the day I have come in contact with this guy, I know he is not the kind to mess around with. I have not known him for much long and even this was my first time talking to him but I can say by the kind of vibe he was emitting, he was the kind who would not hesitate to hurt people.I cleared my throat and tried to lighten up the conversation, “So, you are like my personal bodyguard?”“I want to be more than that.”“What?” I asked, “A friend?”He grunted, clearly annoyed, “You won't ever let me be cheesy, will you?”“No, I won't. You can always try somewhere else though.”“Not interested.” I heard him stand up from his chair and the sound of his shoes

I was not mistaken, it was indeed 2 in the morning.Why is he calling me at this hour of the day?I picked up the call and said, “Hello, doctor? Is everything alright?”“Emma! Thank God you are not asleep.” This was my first time hearing such panic in his voice. He said, “Something happened and I need to perform an immediate surgery. I need you.”I immediately yanked my bedsheets off me and stood up on my feet, “What happened, doctor? Who is the patient?”“I don't have time to explain all this. Get ready, I will pick you up from your house in five minutes.”He quickly hung up and I rushed into a state of panic as well. I put on the nearest outfit I could find and threw in a jacket before literally running out of the house. Doctor James's car came to a halt right in front of me.He looked at me and said, “Get in.” I opened the door of the passenger seat and sat down inside. “Doctor, is everything alright?”

    Emma's POVPatients tend to respond to a certain level during or post-surgery but Romona did not. Her body was functioning but she was unresponsive which meant that she was currently in a vegetative state with no fixed time of waking up.This was very crucial information that the patient's family should have known but why did he skip it? Did he forget? No, that was unlike him. “Doctor?” I called him out, making him snap out of his thoughts. I asked, “Why did you not tell this to them?”“It's too early. What if it is just a temporary state and she wakes up? I don't want them to panic for nothing.”“Doctor, I don't want to put them in that state either but what if she doesn't wake up soon. They are going to ask questions and we won't have any answers at that time.”Ducian fell mum and seemed to be having a conflict amongst himself over what to do. I understood his position, they were close to him and it would put him in a challengingposition to reveal something like this to them. I s

I looked around to find myself in something which seemed to be moving and then I slowly made out that I was in the backseat of some car.The backseat of a car? How did I end up here?My head was dizzy and I needed some assistance. I tried to call out but realized that there was a cloth around my mouth, obstructing me from making any sound.

I managed to look around and saw the driver who was driving the car.The fuss I was creating seemed to have attracted his attention.

    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

    Draven's POVThe scout barely had time to catch his breath as he came rushing into my cabin, “Alpha, we have an emergency.”The panic on his face was evident and I looked at Robin wordlessly. 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’

    Emma's POVA lump formed in my throat, and before I could stop myself, I rushed forward. "Please... don’t hurt them." I cried, my voice shaking as I reached for Draven's phone. He held it firmly, keeping it out of my grasp, but his expression faltered, just for a second. I saw the conflict in his eyes—his desire to stay calm for me, to protect me from this nightmare, but also the terrifying certainty that this wasn’t a bluff. "Give it to me.” I pleaded, my hands trembling as I reached for the phone again. "Please… let me talk to them. Please…"Draven turned to me, his gaze softening just for a moment, "Emma," he said, his voice a quiet command, “Let me take care of this, okay?” He wasn’t angry, nor was he trying to silence me. But there was something in his eyes that told me he needed to keep control. He needed to remain steady, to be the pillar I had always seen him as. My hands dropped to my sides, my fingers clenched into fists as I tried to swallow my rising panic. I nodded,

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   I have your kids

    Emma's POV“Alpha Draven. I heard your kids are gone.”A shock ran through me, paralyzing my limbs for a split second. My breath caught and my pulse quickened as I processed his words inside my head. I looked up at Draven, my eyes wide and my heart beating louder with every passing second. I don't know why but whenever something like this happens, I always look up to study his reaction.The man was still, almost unnervingly calm, but there was something in his posture that made my skin crawl. I watched his eyes darken, and this told me that I was not overthinking anything; this call was actually what my gut was telling me it was.I was not ready for it…Alex saw my reaction and he stepped forward to stand next to me. He put his arm on my shoulder protectively, silently telling me not to worry."Who are you?" he asked, his voice colder than ice, a clear warning to the person on the other end of the line. A shrill line of laughter echoed from the other side of the phone, sending chill

    Emma's POVAlex held his ground, but I could see the tension in his posture. He was trying to defuse the situation, to keep Draven from escalating further.I said, “Let's… Let's not do this. I…”Draven turned to me, almost screaming in my face, “Why are you like this, Emma? Why are you so stubborn? Why could you not just listen to me?”“I…” I did not have any answer for it, “I did not know it was serious…”He scoffed, “You must have thought that I was doing it to sabotage your little vacation, didn't you?”I pursed my lips, too ashamed to admit it. I have lost my kids because of my pride and ego, how can I ever admit to doing something so horrible?Draven started again, “You have lost the kids, Emma! It is entirely your fault.”His words were hitting me like nail hitting the coffins. I felt my eyes stinging with tears as I kept staring at my feet. I could not even look up to meet his eyes! Even though Draven was not the best father, he always made sure to go an extra mile to make sure

    Emma's POVI barely registered his words. Everything in me screamed that the twins were out there, somewhere, and I wasn’t about to let anyone stand in my way.I shoved the door open, but before I could take a step inside, two large hands grabbed me from behind. "Let go!" I yelled, but the grip tightened, pulling me away from the room."Emma!" Alex shouted, but he was too far away. One of the restaurant workers was holding him back now, pinning him against the counter."Let go of me!" I screamed and struggled in the man’s arms. And before I could realise, I threw a punch across his face, "I need to see them! I need to know where they are! Step away from me!”“That's it. I am calling the cops.” The owner immediately ran away, tapping on his phone when he was unable to control the crowd, "Yes, officer, I need you to send someone to the restaurant. We have a disturbance here."I could hear the sirens before I even realized it, their sound cutting through the air like a knife. My breath c

    Emma's POVThe restaurant buzzed with chatter and the clinking of silverware, but none of it mattered to me. The noise and the laughter all faded into the background as my gaze swept desperately across the room. The twins were nowhere to be seen.I checked the corners, scanning every table, hoping to catch a glimpse of their faces. Nothing. I could not find them anywhere!My heart hammered in my chest as panic started to crawl under my skin. It was unlike them to wander off, to be out of my sight for so long. I forced myself to breathe, taking slow, deliberate breaths as I stood up from the table."Excuse me." I said, my voice tight as I approached the nearest waitress, "Have you seen two children, about six years old? Twins, a boy and a girl?"The young woman blinked at me, her eyes wide with confusion, "I am sorry, ma’am, I haven’t seen any kids around here."Frustration coiled inside me, but I forced myself to stay calm, "Are you sure? They were just here, playing around."She ga

    Emma's POVThe message from Alpha Draven echoed in my mind like an incessant drumbeat. The vacation we had been looking forward to had just turned into another reminder of how little control we had over our lives. The bright, tropical island surrounding us seemed like a cruel joke now, a stark contrast to the dark cloud hovering over us.I glanced at Alex, still holding his phone in his hand, eyes narrowed in concern. I asked, “Why suddenly? Om what grounds is he asking us to return.”“Apparently there has been some intel that the rogues are planning to attack us. He wants everyone to return to the pack for safety purposes.”I wasn’t buying it. Not for a second.“So, let me get this straight.” I said, my voice clipped, trying to control the growing irritation in my chest, “Draven wants us to return to the pack because there’s some rogue attack coming? That’s why he’s pulling us back in the middle of our vacation?”Alex sighed, looking like he was weighing whether to argue or just give

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   The much needed trip

    Emma's POVThe suggestion hung in the air between us, filling the silence with a potential that both excited and intimidated me. “A trip?” Ashel echoed, her interest piqued.“Yeah,” Alex said, looking over at me. “A little getaway. Get out of the house for a while. Change of scenery might do you all good.”He continued further, “It’s been a tough few weeks, Emma, for all of you. Maybe a change of scenery will help you all take your minds off things. The kids will get a break from school, and you will get some time to breathe.”I didn’t know how I felt about it at first. A trip meant leaving the comfort of home, leaving the familiar, and that terrified me. But then again, Alex had a way of making things seem simpler than they were. Maybe I needed that. Maybe we all did.I glanced at Asher and Ashel, who were now both eagerly nodding, their faces lighting up at the idea of an adventure. “You think it would help?” I asked Alex, my voice quieter now, almost uncertain.“Of course.” He sai
