Emma's POV

Doctor James?

My immediate reaction was to look over at the clock. 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 Became An Alpha After Divorce   Kidnapped

    Emma's POV“Mhmmm… Where am I…” Was the first thought that flashed inside my head as soon as I regained my senses. My vision was blurry just like my thought process and I had no idea what was going on. 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. My eyes flew open and I involuntarily tried to sit up straight. Unfortunately, I couldn't do that either as my arms and legs were tied.Panic took over me and I was fully awake at this point. 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. He turned to look around at me and smiled creepily, jumping start my memories.It was the same face I had seen before my memories

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   Where is Emma?

    Draven's POV“Hey, this is Emma. Leave your message after the beep.” As soon as I heard this announcement, I pulled the phone away from my ear in annoyance. The mask of anger on my face was noticed by my daughter who was sitting on the sofa next to me.Holding the stuffed, pink bunny which was almost half her size, she asked, “Did Mom not pick up the call?”I looked at my phone and shrugged, “Yes.”Emma and I were supposed to take the kids shopping today. They were starting school in a few days since it was a huge milestone in their life, and they wanted their mother involved.I informed her about it days ago and asked her to keep her schedule clear. She agreed to it but now was not picking up my calls.“Can we please wait a little longer? Maybe she is busy.” The little girl pleaded in the most adorable voice possible. “Of course, sweetheart.” I said and petted her head. The way daughters can bring the soft side in you which you did not even know existed.The arm of the clock shifted

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   Emma is in Danger

    Draven's POVEven Strix perked up when he heard Alex's question. Emma only had Natalie and this guy in the name of friends, it was really concerning if she was not with either of them.I replied, “No, I am unable to find her.”“What!” His voice raised, “Where are you? Did you check in the hospital?”“I am in the hospital with her Senior Doctor. Apparently, she went back home early in the morning.”“I don't have a good feeling about this. Especially after what she told me last night.”“What happened last night?” I furrowed my eyebrows.Alex seemed hesitant to talk about it over the phone, so I reassured him, “You can tell me. It's safe.”He hushed his voice and said, “Emma was right. It was not an accident, someone was indeed trying to kill her.”“What?” My whole body went numb, and I couldn't think of another thought.Did he just say that someone was trying to kill Emma?I went to a scheduled corner where no one could hear me speak. I asked, “What do you mean someone tried to kill her

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   I will find you

    Draven's POVI did not explain further or wait for him to say anything, I just hung up and stepped on the gas pedal. I was driving across the highway, jumped every single traffic light and even edged a few accidents but made it to the pack house in just the right minutes.I did not even bother to park the car and left it right in the corridor. I marched into my office where the charge and staff of the security department were waiting for me.“Alpha.” They greeted me nervously.I sat down on my chair and said, “Play the footage of 4 am of every single surveillance camera near West Wing Hospital.”“On it.” The incharge tapped a few times on his laptop and the screen of the television in my cabin lit up. “There are four cameras around that area, Alpha. And this is the footage of the time you requested.” The incharge explained to me and played the video.Not even two minutes into the video, I could see Emma's frail frame walking alone on the road. The door of my cabin was pushed open a

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   Plans for Emma

    Emma's POVI don't know how long it's been since I have been left alone here. It feels like it's been a whole day already but the brightly lit sky told me that it was hardly close to being afternoon.I sighed and tried to call the men again, “Hey! Anyone in here?”My words got lost as if they were some needles thrown in the stack of hay. I tried to break loose again and in the process, accidently knocked off an old mirror which was hanging on the other side of the iron grill to which my chair was tied.“What on Earth are you doing in here, woman?” One of the men, whose name was Bradley, pushed open the door. He had a bottle of beer in his hand. No wonder he was pissed, I interrupted their drinking session.“I am sorry. It just fell.”He checked the broken mirror and clicked his tongue in annoyance. He kept the half-empty beer bottle on the floor and picked up the broom to sweep the broken mirrors, “Dumb bitch.”I furrowed my eyebrows, “Hey, who are you calling a bitch?”“You.” He sai

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   Attempt to Escape

    Emma's POVIt was not just torture, it was inhumane. Everyone knows how brutal the human trafficking industry can be!I asked, “Why would they do that to me? What did I even do to them?”I felt tears sting my eyes. As far as I am sound and aware, I have never harmed anyone and even if I did, it was unintentional. Why would anyone want to do such an inhumane thing to me?The kidnappers shrugged, “We honestly don't know what kind of grudge this person is holding against you.”“Do you at least know who it is?”The men looked at each other, they were hesitant.I said, “Guys, this person hates me and there is no way I am making out of here alive. I am not going to rat you out. I deserve to at least know the identity of the person who is destroying my life, right?”There is no one other than that assassin who is after my life. This too should be one of his work! We have been standing across each other for almost seven years now, it would be a shame if I die without even knowing who this per

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   Car Crash

    Emma's POVArgh…I opened my eyes and looked around, the back of my head felt numb as if it had been hit. I touched my forehead and noticed that I was bleeding. I perked up in my seat only to stumble and fall on my face when the vehicle hit a pothole.“Ahhh.” I cried, attracting the attention of Rico who was next to me.“Oh, see. The runner is up.” As soon as he said it, Bradley, who was driving the car, looked at me through the rearview mirror.I asked, “Why am I bleeding?”“You tried to run. What else do you suppose us to do? You got hit while we caught you.” Rico explained calmly.I touched my wound again and hissed, even though it was bleeding it was not that bad and could be fixed with just a bandage.I looked around the car and asked, “Where are we going?”“We told the initiator about your little attempt to run. They determined that it would be risky to hold you any longer and asked us to carry out the already decided plan.” Bradley said.“Already decided plan?” My pupils dilate

Slowly, I rolled down my window. “Do you need help?”No response.My phone chimed again. I glanced at the message from Draven—Almost there.When I lifted my gaze, the figure was gone.A shiver ran down my spine.

    Emma's POVJust when I thought that I was hearing things, I heard her again, “Mom… Can you hear me?”The voice was faint, distant, but unmistakable. My heart leaped into my throat and I gasped, my breath hitching as I heard the familiar voice echo through my head.“Ashel?” I called, my eyes darting frantically around the dimly lit space. But there was no one there, just the cold walls and the flickering bulb above me.My heart pounded against my ribs and I was dying to just hear her voice one more time. “Ashel!” I yelled again, desperation creeping into my voice.“Mom, please save me. I am scared.” Her unmistakable voice spoke to me.“I am here. I will get you, sweetie. Don’t be scared.” I pressed my ear against the door to see if anyone was there and heard the faint mutters of the housekeepers talking to themselves. I started pounding on the door with clenched fists, “Let me out!”The initial chatter stopped dramatically and there was dead silence now.A sharp wave of panic surged th

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   The New Gamma

    Emma's POVMy fingers curled around the armrest as the plane finally touched down. The turbulence had been mild, but my exhaustion made everything feel heavier, the vibrations of the landing rumbling through my already tense body. More than twenty-four hours had passed since I last slept, but fatigue had yet to claim me. Restlessness coiled tight in my chest, refusing to let go.I stole a glance at Draven beside me. He was checking his phone, his sharp features set in a mask of unreadable focus. The moment the aircraft doors opened and we stepped into the terminal, his phone rang. The distinct vibration pattern told me it was Robin. Draven did not even waste a second and picked up the call immediately.“What is it?” His voice was low and controlled, but I could sense the undercurrent of tension.I stayed close as he listened, his expression darkening with every second. By the time he hung up, his jaw was clenched so tight I thought it might crack.He asked, “Are you sure you have the

    Alex's POVDesiree froze on her spot and looked at me and Robin simultaneously, “What? Was I not supposed to say that out loud?”I narrowed my eyes as I gestured toward the tattoo on the grainy surveillance photo, “Do you even know what this means?”Desiree scoffed, a smirk playing at the corners of her lips as she crossed her arms, “Of course I do. I spent the majority of my life in Italy, Alex. You think I wouldn’t know about the underworld?”“Desiree, I swear on the Moon Goddess I will send you back to the pack on the very next flight if you are playing around with me.”“I don’t need to, Mr Frost. I am already bored here, I won’t give you a useless puzzle to solve so that you spend more time here investigating. Honestly, I just want to get out of here.”Robin and I exchanged glances, not sure how to react to this new information that was revealed to us. The girl looked too confident in what she was saying, there was no way she could be messing with us. But still, we could not blind

  • I Became An Alpha After Divorce   Can I come along?

    Alex's POVI stood near the edge of the tarmac, arms crossed, watching as Draven and Emma disappeared into the terminal. I could not shake Emma’s worried face off my head, Ashel and Asher were her whole life, and losing them was putting her in a spiral. I exhaled sharply, pushing away the gnawing feeling of unease that settled in my gut. For some reason, I felt like this was happening all because of me. I was the one who bought them here, I was the one who was responsible for their safety. I should have looked after them, but instead, I slacked off and now not only Emma’s family but the entire pack was in shambles.I have to find the kids, no matter what! And I had no time to waste, the time was ticking fast and I had to be quick.Just as I turned on my heel, ready to leave, a slow, deliberate smirk caught my attention.

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.

    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
