Draven's POVEmma transformed back and collapsed in my lap. She was panting and weak, making me wrap my arms around her protectively.Since she was literally in my hands, I could no longer avoid her scent. It was intoxicating me and making my senses go blur.Even though I am a human, a part of me is an animal who has just found it's mate after so many years. I have long lost the power to hold myself back anymore, the more I inhaled her scent, the more my wolf slipped into heat. And by her scent, I could also say that she was in heat too.If given a chance, Strix would shift right now and pounce on her. Only I knew how much I was restraining myself right now.I did not want to misuse her situation. She had just shifted and was not in her right mind, she would definitely hate me if I made love to her.I picked her up and took her to the car. I could not take her like this to the hospital, she was naked and wounded. I went to the trunk of my car and picked up a new set of clothes. It was
Draven's POVDriving back to the pack was taking a toll on me, the wound on my shoulder was not helping me either. So, I stopped my car aside and looked to see if there was any settlement nearby.Luckily, there was a small pack just twenty minutes away from where I was. They had hospital facilities, so I decided to go there instead.I kept checking on Emma every now and then, she was unconscious and wasn't waking up despite my several attempts to wake her up. This was worrying me!She had just shifted and I know how exhausting it is to shift for the first time. If you are not strong enough, it could even threaten your life.I entered the pack territories and was stopped at the gate by the pack guards but as soon as they saw that it was me, they stepped aside and bowed down.I did not have the time or energy to acknowledge them so I went straight to the hospital.There, after I got myself treated, I was waiting for the doctors to finish up with Emma.Half and hour later, the doctor wal
Draven's POV“Emma?” I called out her name and she did not respond but I could smell the scent of her arousal filling the room.My wolf, who was supposed to be weak and injured, immediately got excited and started jumping around. He was slipping into heat just by her scent and it was visibly showing up.I looked at my member who was starting to grow inside my pants.“No, not again.” I muttered. I was already worried about how she was going to react once she found out we made love in the back. I can explain to her about one time but twice?She was definitely going to misunderstand that I used her and took advantage of her condition.Emma wasn't responding and I went ahead to check on her. As I grew closer and closer to her, I could feel the mate bond between us. It was a surreal feeling, capable of even giving a grown man bouts of butterflies.I controlled my growing lust and made it clear to Strix that we were not going to act on our impulse.“What?” He was shocked, “But she is in hea
Emma's POVMy sudden actions woke Draven up and he looked at me through his messy bangs. His droopy eyes scanned my face and trickled down to my body. This reminded me that I am naked and I pulled the blanket to conceal my body.“What are you looking at?” I asked him and he dragged his eyes back to my face.He asked, “You are awake? How are you feeling?”I said, “I asked you something!”Draven got up from the bed, he was still naked and did not seem to mind it. I turned around and refused to look at him, “Can you for God's sake put something on?” The Alpha was in the middle of lighting up a cigarette, when he heard my words he turned around nonchalantly, “Why? This isn't the first time you are seeing me naked.”“Stop!” My face burned red and I forced him to put something on.The man replied with a fine and put on the robe. He sat down on the sofa and took a drag of his cigarette, “Why are you so worked up?”“What kind of question is that?” I said, “Where am I? What happened? Why am I
Draven's POVI took a shower and came out of the room to see Draven already dressed up and busy on a phone call. He looked at me and signaled for me to wait a second and I went into the bedroom, rolling my eyes.I looked everywhere but I could not find anything to wear. The clothes that I was wearing were ruined so I assume the hospital threw them away for good.But… What was I going to wear?“What's the matter?” Draven came into the room and stood beside me, staring blankly at the cupboard.I said, “I have nothing to wear.”“You are wearing a robe.”“You can't expect me to go out in public wearing this!”“Right.” He said, turning back to look at the empty cupboard like me.He then said, “You stay here. I will go and get you something.”“You sure?” I looked at him, “Won't it be inconvenient to you?”“No. I got this.” He said confidentially and moved to pick up his jacket and keys.I was a little sceptical about him going to buy my clothes and asked behind his back, “Do you even know m
Emma's POV“Good.” He said slowly before settling in his seat and opening his portion of the food. While Draven was not looking, I stole a few glances at him. I was not mistaken, something has definitely changed. I can feel it…He was starting to treat me better.He was being gentle.And if Draven is really the one who saved me, then the things which I saw before fainting on the road must be real too. The thing I witnessed in his eyes, a thin line differentiating his fright of losing me and relief of finding me…Could it be that Draven was always in love with me but he was never able to see it and yesterday when he thought that he was going to lose me forever, he realized his feelings.Butterflies erupted inside me along with acid.It was a bittersweet feeling and brought me heaps of confusion rather than joy.He is refusing to divorce and seems adamant to not give up on me. He is also treating me better.Could this be…The door slammed open, not letting me finish my thoughts. Draven
Emma's POVThe shopping trip was planned for the afternoon, even though Draven stalled the trip saying that he had work, we all knew that he just wanted to make sure I was getting a good rest before carrying on with any activity. It was evident by his constant checking up on me and bringing me something to eat every now and then.He did not even allow me to come downstairs for lunch and brought it up himself with the help of a housekeeper. I said, “Why did you bring it upstairs? I was just about to come down.”I yanked off the blanket and was about to get off the bed when Draven stopped me and practically nudged me back into the bed, “It's ok. We are here. Go back to your bed.”I sat down like a little child and looked at them like a fool. Draven made sure to ask me what I felt like eating before asking the kitchen to cook something. I wanted to keep it light and simple with an Alfredo pasta and butter omelette.The man kept the portable table on the bed and signalled for the houseke
“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
