Emma's POV“Yaay!” Ashel jumped off my lap and hugged Draven's tall legs.Asher was stunned, he looked at his father as if he had betrayed him and asked, “I think we talked this through.”“I know and I respect your points. They were valid. But it is my personal choice.” The Alpha said like a wise sage. I don't know why but I was angered by his sudden switch in answer. Did he have to be so petty to go all the way to change his philosophy just to go against me?I sneered, “It is easy for you to say. I am rich.”“You are right. I am rich, that is why I am more eligible to give this answer.” The man picked up Ashel and made her sit next to him, “Money can buy you luxury but as Ashel said, it can't buy you happiness. You need a family for that!” Draven put extra stress on his last sentence. I could not understand what he was trying to say, I asked, “It is all just for show. Tell me, would you give up on your wealth for your kids?”“I will.” He said without hesitation. Asher interjected,

Draven's POV I walked out of my study after finishing a pile of work. It was already half past one and the whole house was dead silent. I was passing through the stairs to reach my bedroom when I picked on something moving on the couch from my peripheral vision.I turned my head to see Emma tossing and turning on the rigid couch.I stopped and sighed, she could not sleep just as I had warned.I went downstairs to talk to her.I did not tell this to anyone but after Alex visited me in my office the other day, I could not take my mind off what all he said to me. Emma never told me that she was in love with me since she was in college. I was not stupid, I knew how Omegas were treated in my pack. She threw away her whole life just to be near me, who does that? I regretted treating her so awfully and blaming her for marrying me just for money. I was so wrong and the guilt was eating me up.I wanted to make it up to her! I wanted to treat her in the way I should have treated her when she

Emma's POV I did not know when I dozed off last night, the last thing I remember was watching Draven go into the shower. I was in the spring's field with my kids! The three of us were sitting on a blue and white checkered blanket. The sun was yellow and there was a picnic basket lying next to us. I picked out an apple and was slicing it for my kids when Ashel poked me with her tiny fingers. “What is it, dear?” I asked her and she pointed at something beside me. There was a dreaded look on her face which promoted me to look back immediately.There, between the bushes, I saw a huge black wolf staring at me with bloodshot eyes.“Hello?” I called out but the wolf stood unmoving. There was something about the way the beast was staring at me which disturbed me. It felt as if its gaze was piercing through my soul.Then it hit me. I recognised this wolf. It was Strix!I jolted my eyes open; it was all a dream, except for one part. Draven was right there next to the bed, staring at me as

Emma's POVI stood on my feet and looked at the man standing at the door like the Grim Reaper himself. There was no expression on his face so I could not determine if he was okay or if he was furious.And why is he back so soon? I was promised that he won't come back for another hour.I stood there awkwardly as he made his way inside. He leisurely removed his jacket and sat down on his chair.The silence between us was awkwardly suffocating and I was growing desperate to change the topic. I said, “So, how are you feeling?”He checked his hand which was covered in bandages and said, “I don't know.” He shoved his hand towards me and said, “Check.”I kept my kit on the table and took out a scissor from it. I used it to cut open the bandage, as expected of an Alpha wolf, his wound was cured.Seeing that I was closing my kit, he asked, “Are you not going to bandage me?”“Why?” I asked, “It is cured. You are free to use this hand now.”“Oh.” He said slowly. Draven sat there silently while

Emma's POVPetty?No.Petty would not even begin to describe him.I silently took the card and nodded. Draven did not stick there any longer and walked out of the door.Fine! Since he was so insistent that I spend his money, I will make sure he regrets it. It was not like I was getting any alimony from him, I might treat this as my little revenge.I drove to the nearest fancy restaurant where one meal cost in thousands. Even though it was not a rush hour, one required to reserve a table to go inside.I booked a table online and once it was confirmed, I drove over.I parked my car in the restaurant's parking lot and walked inside.To my surprise, I was stopped by the security.“You can't go inside.” The tall man in black suit said to me.“Why?” I asked, “I have made the reservation already.” I took my phone from my bag and proceeded to unlock it but he stopped me, “No. There is no need for this, you can't go inside.”I was starting to get frustrated now.I asked, “Why?

Emma's POV“Alpha.” The staff immediately stood upright and lowered their gazes. Draven glared at them and did not acknowledge their greetings. Instead, he looked down at me and asked, “Are you okay?”I steered my eyes away from him and blinked my eyes furiously to fight back my tears. “I am fine.” My voice cracked and he seemed to have noticed it. Without a warning, he pinched my cheek and forced me to look up.His eyes widened in shock when he saw the tears in mine.He asked in a murderous tone, “What happened?”“It's nothing. Let's go.” I tried to walk past him and go outside but before I could, he grabbed my hand and forced me to stop. He asked again, his tone far scarier than the last time, “I asked what happened.”When the man uses his Alpha tone, there is nothing much we can do other than succumb to his orders.I narrated everything that happened to him and watched his expression turn from ugly to worse.After I was done talking, he directly looked up at the two staff behind

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.

Emma's POVI asked, “So, you don't have any fond memories of your childhood?”“No. I think I don't even know what it is supposed to feel like.”I grunted, agreeing with him, “You know, I relate with you.”“You do?” He raised an eyebrow, “But you were in the pack and Gamma Austin looks like he is a good father.”“He was a good father to my brother, not to me. 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

Emma's POVHe did not wait for me to say anything and got out of the car. 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
I Became An Alpha After Divorce Get inside the car
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
I Became An Alpha After Divorce Random bouts of anger
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
I Became An Alpha After Divorce Safety of the kids
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
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.”
