Emma's POV

“What is your relationship with Alexander Frost?” Desiree's sudden question caught me off guard. I countered her question with a question of my own, “Why do you ask?”

I had many more questions in my head. Why is she suddenly asking about him? They don't even know each other.

Desiree said in a rather rude tone, “Can you not give me the answer without knowing the reason?”

There she goes, going back to her true rude self after pretending to be polite for so long. I shook my head; it must have been extremely exhausting to smile at her.

I did not get angry. Instead, I said calmly, “You called me here to talk. I am not obliged to answer your questions.”

I stood up, preparing to leave but she stopped me, “Wait. Where are you going?”

“Home because this conversation isn't going anywhere and, unlike you, I have a job and I have stuff to do.”

“Wait! Don't go!” She stood up, her tone mellower than before, “I am sorry. Can you not go?”

I looked at Desiree and saw something on her face w

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   You were a good Luna

    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.”

    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.

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   A Rough Day

    “They said I can never compete with her and take the throne in his heart. But, honey, there is no competition! She can have the throne of his heart while I take the throne of the pack.” -Asmitha (I became an Alpha after Divorce) __________________________________ Emma’s POV “Ahhhh.” I accidentally knocked off the vase from the table while scrubbing the floor. I immediately grabbed the vase to check if it was fine even though my back was hurting because of the hit. Fortunately, the antique was alright, saving me a heavy bashing from the owners of this house. “Emma! Where in the Moon Goddess’s name are you?” Sherra Sinclair, my mother-in-law, came bragging into the room. The anger on her face escalated when she saw me on the floor. “You witch, it’s already time for dinner and you are still cleaning the floor? Where is the food? Do you want to starve me and Desiree?” She seethed. I darted my eyes toward the wall clock and realized that it was indeed time for dinner. I got up at onc

    Emma's POV "What are you doing? Let me go!" I was shocked by his sudden action and tried to break free from his clutch. But the more I resisted, the harder he pinned me. A mocking smile appeared on his face as he said, "Trying to be modest, are we, Emma? Are you gonna deny that this was what you wanted?" "What do you mean?" I stared into his dark blue eyes which reminded me of the night sky. This was the first time he was this close to me and I couldn't help but notice his exquisite features. He was blessed with almond eyes and long curly lashes, paired with a strong set of eyebrows. He had a bridged nose and thin pink lips, all accommodating in his rectangular face with a square jawline. Alpha Draven was the most handsome man in our pack and every time I looked into his eyes, I remembered why I fell in love with him in the first place. He said, "Didn't you just complain to my mother that I wouldn't sleep with you?" My face reddened with embarrassment, I did not expect that v

    Emma's POVI did not respond and stayed still, it was not that I did not want to respond but did not know what to say at this point. We have been married for three years and all this time, I stayed dedicated to him. I gave up on my career and left behind the life I could have lived to be treated like a maid in this house. But even after all these sacrifices, it only took one accusation from her to throw me out.Alpha Draven did not stick there any longer, he picked up his coat and stormed out.Now that the house was empty and back to being lifeless, I got the time to sort out my thoughts.I recalled that night three years ago, I was in the pack kitchen all day, arranging the pantry all by myself.

I wanted to hear the truth from her.I got into the elevator and reached the topmost floor, at the end of the

    Emma's POV The next day… "Would you like to order, Miss Whitemane?" "No, thank you. I am waiting for a friend." I smiled at the waitress and sent her off. No one in the pack addressed me as 'Luna' or 'Mrs. Sinclair', not only because they don't see me as their Luna but also because their Alpha never asked them to. The entire pack knew he hated me! The person I was waiting for today was Natalie Colerio, my best friend and the daughter of Beta Walter of our pack. While the whole pack scorned me for being an orphan omega, she was the only one who saw me beyond my rank. I heard the door being pushed open and looked up from my table, there she was standing in her designer clothes, unfitting in this modest cafe. "Natalie. Here!" I waved my hand at her and a mask of instant relief covered her face. She came to me and wrapped me in a tight hug, "Gosh, I am sorry I am late." "It's ok. I am glad you are here." She sat down on her seat and rubbed my wrist with her thumb, "Are you okay?"

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   Is Desiree okay?

    Emma's POVSeeing Desiree run over to me was something I never expected to see in this lifetime. I did not know what to feel about it! I was already having a bad day because of her brother; bickering with her was something I could not take for today.Natalie looked at me and whispered, “Should we dash?”“She saw us! It would be pretty of us to just run away.”“Why should we not run away? That woman is literally a devil's spawn.” Natalie gnashed her teeth. Because of her position as the pack’s ambassador, Natalie was forced to have a diplomatic relationship with everyone. This was the only reason she was putting up with the whole Sinclair family, especially Desiree. If she was not the face of the pack, she would have long jumped that spoiled brat for the things she put me through.I took in a deep breath and prepared for whatever bullshit was coming my way.Desiree stopped in front of us and caught her breath. To my utter surprise, she smiled at me and asked, “How are you? I did not ex

    Desiree's POVI left the Riverside pack early, claiming that I had some business to take care of in Silvermoon, but the truth was I came here just to meet him. That day when I showed up to his ward, I was nervous! I knew that he would be associating me with Stella and would not want to meet me. Also, if I was going to apologize, I would have to come clean that it was me who invited him.Given the current dynamics, it would look extremely suspicious of me to have invited him out of nowhere. He would have a lot of questions and I had to be prepared to answer them.I bought a bunch of roses, asked the receptionist about his whereabouts and made my way to his ward. I was feeling confident when I was still in the elevator but once it reached his floor and I stepped out, I started to panic. The fright within me only grew stronger when I spotted the door to his ward. I stood in front of the closed door and took in a deep breath. My heart was beating so fast that I felt it would leap out of

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   Who was that guy?

    Desiree's POVMy life hasn't been the same since the Pack banquet. As the daughter of the Alpha and the sister of the future Alpha, I held a position of authority from a very young age. People feared me, and no one ever dared to speak against me; what I said was set in stone. Growing up with no one ever daring to question me did get in my head. I used to believe that no matter what I did, there was not a tongue which would slither against me. This bubble of mine burst brutally that evening. I have bullied Emma a lot of times in the past. I hated her for sobbing the life which rightfully belonged to my friend and I never even tried to hide it. I would trouble her whenever I would get a chance, even if she was not at fault, no one ever dared to stop me.Alex was the first man ever to call me out and humiliate me in public. That night, after he sent me back home, I was upset. This was my first time ever being proved wrong or sent out. I could not stop thinking about him. Who was he? W

You will have to attend the ceremony whether you like it or not.”I rolled my eyes, “This just doesn't make any sense.” I paused and said, “How about the last time this happened? How did you do it?”“We assumed that you were dead, so we did it without the Luna. But you turned out to be very much alive! All the pack members think this is the reason our pack has been going through a rough time lately.”“Wait. You all blame me for the recent attacks?” I was stunned to discover this. I remember the meeting that was happening and asked, “That meeting a few minutes ago, was that about me?”“Yes.” Draven said, “The whole pack board agrees that you have to be present. You don't have any choice.”“You can't force me.”“Actually, I can.” He said and stepped close, towering over me, “If you attend this festival as my Luna, I will withdraw the case.”“You will?”“Yes.”At this point,

If there were two things I hated the most in this entire world, it would be Moon Festival and being Draven's Luna again.Moon Festival is the most important ritual for every pack done in the honour of the Moon Goddess herself. This ritual was celebrated once in three years during the night of Emrald Moon. If not done properly, the legends has it that the Moon Goddess would shower the pack with problems and turmoils.There was once a time when I used to look forward to this festival as it was one of those rare occasions when I would be respected and acknowledged as the Luna of the pack. But when the day of the festival actually came, I loathed it!The festival fell during the first year of our marriage. I was so desperate for the acknowledgement and love that I went above and beyond for the preparation.I was really looking forward to it but during the final day…I dressed up and went to the temple only to see that Sherra
