I Became An Alpha After Divorce Why does Emma hate me?
Emma's POVI was stunned at Alex’s answer; it started off normally but he ended it in a vague way. As soon as these words left his mouth, the reporters started to note them down furiously. This moment I knew what would be the front page headline in tomorrow’s newspaper. Alex excused us and folded up the interview, all this while I kept a pretentious smile on my face. We hooked hands and went inside the lobby, when I made sure that no one could hear us, I asked, “What was that?”“What was what?”“Your answer. You just gave them a free scoop.” I said.“No, I did not. I was merely stating the fact that you might start dating someone in the future. I just said that it could also be me.”“Yeah… But… We are not ever gonna date, Alex. we are just friends.” I said hesitantly. I did not want to beat around the bush or hurt him with my blunt honesty.He stopped and turned his head towards me, reaching out to tuck my bangs behind my ears, "But the Alpha doesn't know that."Just when he said thos

Emma's POV'I did not know she tricked the Alpha into marrying her. No wonder he hated her so much.''This is despicable. How can you even think about stealing your friend's man when they are in a coma.''She acted like a saint and demanded divorce as if she was not the one in the wrong. I can't believe people can be so shameless.''Not only did she do something so heinous, she even dared to bully Miss Gracy.'I could hear the cacophony of people trashing me loud and clear, it was as if they were not even trying to be discreet. Some people came to comfort Stella as she kept sobbing. "What is happening here? What is with all the crowd?" A haughty, feminine voice rang behind my back. I furrowed my eyebrows and turned around to see if it was who I thought it was. I was not mistaken, it was indeed Desiree Sinclair.Desiree was Draven's younger sister. She was in Italy all this time, pursuing her career in fashion design. She left the pack when I was still with Draven, when did she come ba

Emma's POVNo matter where we went, I had people look at me and start whispering to themselves. I shook my head and looked away but Alex noticed this. He said, "We can leave if you want.""No, are you crazy? Why would we leave? We just arrived." "Are you not bothered by the people talking?""I am not. All I want is to get my divorce papers signed by Draven. I am willing to do whatever it takes."Alex and I walked over to the bar and ordered ourselves a margarita. I was an occasional drinker and today seemed to be a good enough occasion to get drunk. We both sat on the chair next to the stand and were waiting for our drinks. Just then, one of his colleagues walked over and whispered something in his ear.Alex listened to him calmly and asked, "Do I have to come over right now?""I would say. The higher-ups are waiting." The man whispered."Okay." Alex got off his chair and put on the coat buttons smartly.I asked, "Is everything alright?""Yeah. It's just a small, member-only meeting

Emma's POVDraven walked away, leaving Robin behind. The man tried to help me but he was warned by his Alpha to follow him out."But Alpha…""I said we are leaving.""Yes, sir."The two men left, leaving me all by myself on the roof. The night was freezing and the only source of heat was my burning divorce papers, which were going out too. I stood at the edge of the roof when Alex called me. I told him that I was in the roof and he immediately rushed to meet me."Emma? What are you doing here? And what the hell is this?" He looked at the ashes in the ground and the burning smell which intoxicated the air.I turned to look at him and said with a straight face, "It's the divorce papers. Draven burnt it and told me that he is not going to divorce me."The man touched the bridge of his nose, "I am sorry, this is all my fault.""No. You are not responsible for my decisions. I married that monster of a man." I said.Alex stepped on the pile of ashes to put out the leftover fire and shoved h

Draven's POVThe atmosphere in the car was grim and I knew it was all because of me. Robin was staring straight ahead at the road, too afraid to even move an inch while my sister and Stella were at the backseat. A few moments later, Desiree spoke up, “That was some welcome.”Her complaining like a brat was the last straw of my patience. I asked, “Why did you come back?”Desiree was taken aback by my question, she said, "What do you mean why did I come back? I was gone for so long, you did not want me to come back?"I touched my temples, I sent Desiree away to Italy as a punishment when I caught her trying to frame Emma. I always knew that the women in my house were mean to my wife, she never complained and suffered in silence but what happened that day was something I could not ignore.I caught Desiree trying to spike Emma's drink. When I asked her why, she told me that she wanted Emma to cheat on me so that I could have a reason to get rid of her.My sister was just trying to help me

Draven's POV“Good! Good… She was a good-for-nothing-for-nothing anyway. I am happy that we are finally getting rid of her.” My mother complained and went back to reading her magazine.Since the topic was over, I decided to go upstairs and sort things out with my kids. Just when I was about to leave, Desiree asked, “Draven, who are those kids?”“Kids? What kids?” My mother asked, making me stop on my strides. I swear on the Moon Goddess herself, if I could, I would have strangled my sister right now. Desiree ignored my glare at her and continued her conversation with Mom, “You have not met them yet? They were upstairs when I was getting ready for the Ball. I did not have time to ask them who they were since I was in a hurry.”“Is that so? Who are they, Draven?” My mother asked me, “Why are there kids in your house?”Robin stepped in and said, “They are my niece and nephew.”“Niece and Nephew?” Desiree raised an eyebrow, “I never knew you had them.” She looked at the housekeeper clean

Emma's POV“Shit! Shit! Shit!” All the drinks last night did me dirty as I slept off my alarm today. Since I took half a day's leave yesterday, I had to make up for it by taking today's morning shift. I thought the girls could use some rest so I agreed to this plan, I clearly did overestimate the influence of alcohol over me.I grabbed a slice of bread and chugged up a glass of milk, rushing outside to catch my bus. As I was making my way out, I saw a new car parked outside, and standing next to it were two men clad in suits. They had no expression on their face but their watchful eyes followed me. I ignored them as I did not have time to investigate this and made my way out of the complex. But then, I was stopped by the same two men, “Miss Whitemane.”“Yes?” I stopped to answer. They said, “I am Henry and he is Marcus. We work for the Alpha.”“Oh, him.” My expressions turned sour just by the mention of that man. I said, “What does he want now?”“Alpha wants to meet you. He asked us

Emma's POV Draven watched as I signed the contract, I did not even read it because… what’s the point? He won't let me change a thing about it even if I don't like it.He secured the documents and locked them inside a briefcase, “Good. You can have the kids now.”“Where are they? Can I take them home with me now?” I asked. I was eager to meet my kids.Draven stood up and said, “They are not with me right now. They are with Robin.”“Oh.” I mused, “I can go and pick them up.”“No, need for that. We have something important to do before that.”“What?” The man picked up his jacket and car keys, “Come with me.”“Where?” Again, utter silence. Asking this man a question was like throwing a stone in the ocean. Completely useless! I rolled my eyes and followed him behind. We got into the elevator and he called his receptionist to inform her that he was heading out and canceled all his meetings for the day.We got into his car and the car set out in the city. None of us talked, he was starin

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

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.”
I Became An Alpha After Divorce Not the same
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
