I 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. Could this be a misunderstanding?
I picked up my purse and headed out of the house. I called a cab and asked them to take me to the hospital where Stella was currently hospitalized. I wanted to hear the truth from her.
I got into the elevator and reached the topmost floor, at the end of the corridor I could see the door of the VIP room. Since the door was slightly open, I did not think much and entered only to be greeted by the sight of Stella wrapped in the arms of my husband.
The two were sitting on the bed and she was leaning on his chest affectionately. The peaceful atmosphere was disrupted as soon as they caught my sight.
Everything around me fell silent; I had seen them like this before but back then, he was just a guy I admired. Right now, he was still my husband and the pain this was causing me was immeasurable.
“You? What are you doing here? Who allowed you to come in?” Draven stood up from the bed furiously.
“I am just here to talk…” Stella’s face went pale at my sight; she grabbed his arm and started to shiver, “Draven, I am scared. She is going to hurt me again.”
“It’s ok, don’t be scared. I am here.” Draven immediately softened down. He hugged her and addressed me coldly, “Get out of here before I call the security.”
My eyebrows knitted themselves together; I ignored him and placed my eyes on Stella, “Stella, there has been some misunderstanding…”
“You tried to kill me in cold blood. I don’t want you here. Leave, please…” She said, her voice starting to crack.
“Stella, how can I do that to you? We are friends…”
“No, we are not friends!” Stella shook her head, her eyes brimming with tears, “Draven, please send her away. I…” She clutched her head weakly and this simple action was enough to well him with worry.
“Emma! Get out!” Draven screamed at me.
I clenched my fist and said, “Fine! The friendship that we had ends here today, Stella. And you…” I pointed my finger at Draven and said, “Next time I see you will be with divorce papers.”
When I got home, the first thing I did was wash my face to try to clear my head of the cold water. When I looked up I was startled by my bloodshot eyes face in the mirror.
The path I chose to get married to Draven may not be a righteous one but I gave it my all to be a good wife to him. After all the sacrifices I made for this family, this was what I got in return.
No, not anymore. I was not going to let him or anyone walk all over me like this again. I am going to change this!
I wiped the tears off my face and went back to my room. I pulled out my phone and dialled a number.

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?"

Ring… Ring… Ring… The sound of the ringtone going off broke my sleep but it was not my phone. I fluttered my tired eyes open and looked around; the ceiling was white and there was a smell of antiseptic in the air. “I gotta take this call.” “Sure… I will be here.” I heard a man and woman converse. I darted my eyes in the direction of the sound and saw a silhouette clad in a black suit walk out of the room. I was trying to understand where I was when I heard Natalie’s voice, “Emma? You are awake?” The worry on her face diffused into relief. She took my hand and helped me sit upright. I clutched my head weakly and asked, “What happened?” “You passed out. Your sugar level was dangerously low.” She spoke, tucking the pillow on my back to support me, "When was the last time you had a proper meal?" I stayed mum as I knew I would hear an earful if I told her the truth. I jogged my memory and realized that she was right. But I was on the road, how did I end up here? I asked, “Who broug

Emma's POV “You are awake?” A woman in a doctor’s coat entered the room with a smile, “How are you feeling, Miss Whitemane?” “I… I am feeling better.” I pushed back all the bad memories of Draven surfacing in my head and asked, “Is everything alright, Doctor?” "The lab reports just came in. Congratulations. You are pregnant!” The doctor smiled, touching my arm and spreading a sense of comfort. My heart skipped a beat when I heard the doctor’s words. Even Alexander and Natalie were shocked by this news. Pregnant? Now? My mind went into turbulence and I could not think straight. I stared at her blankly, not knowing how to react. My hands involuntarily clutched my stomach and asked, “Are you sure, doctor? Am I… really pregnant?” “Yes, Mrs. Whitemane.” She nodded confidently, "You are bearing the future successor of the Silver Moon Pack. You should be very proud." "I can't believe this." My eyes filled with tears… I longed for this child for two years, hoping that it would keep
I Became An Alpha After Divorce A Month in Prison
Emma's POV One month later… "Hey, you. Wake up." The prison warden poked me with her stick. While it may look like she was trying to wake me up, in reality, this is how they check if the prisoner is alive or not. I parted my eyes open and looked at her. She said in her usual irritated tone, "It is not the time to sleep. You are in prison, not some holiday resort where you can sleep whenever you want." "I am sorry. I was just tired." I stood up from my ice-cold iron bed with no pillow or quilt. "Don't let me catch you sleeping again." The warden warned me before walking off. As soon as she left, I sat back on the bed and clutched my head. I was seven weeks pregnant now and the baby was not helping me much with my health. I was sick all the time and noticed a significant fall in my weight. After the day I was arrested from the hospital, I was thrown into the pack dungeons while the investigation was still going on. No one was aware that I was pregnant and I don't think they w

Emma's POVMy whole body froze.Death sentence? Did she really just say the council is planning to give me the death sentence?"What are you talking about? Give the phone to Alex." "Okay." Natalie stepped aside and handed the receiver to Alex. I asked, "Alex, what is she saying?"The man let out a deep sigh and said, "It's true, Emma. Since Stella was supposed to be the Luna of this pack, you are accused of attempting to murder her and threatening the Pack's safety.I clenched my fist; threatening the Pack's safety was the biggest treason but the most they could do was banish me. I said, "I didn't even do it! Why are they doing this to me?""I don't know but someone is pulling strings behind the scenes." Alexander said, hinting at something far more sinister than it was.My face turned pale like that of a ghost, I asked, "Who… Who could it be?"Alexander seemed conflicted about revealing it to me. After I forced him, he spoke up, "The Council is a very powerful organization, Emma. No

I Became An Alpha After Divorce The final verdict
Emma's POVI stumbled on the corridor as I ran out of the cabin, never in a million years did I expect this from Draven. All the respect I had for him fell down to the depths of Hell.I ran inside my cell and closed it, the four walls which gave me nightmares for the past few weeks were now the only place where I felt safe. My face was wet with sweat and I had strands of hair sticking on it. I looked like a mess, like someone who had just managed to save herself from the clutches of Satan himself.Once I was alone in the cell, I broke down in tears. I covered my face and let myself wither down. This heartbreak was too much for me to bear…All this year of love, sacrifice, and dedication only to be stooped down to the level of being his whore.Before he said those cruel words, I was actually constructing a sentence within my mind to tell him the truth. Tell him that I was pregnant with his child.But now… It did not matter! A man who doesn't even see me with respect, won't ever accept

The housekeepers were eerily quiet as they did their work and looked as if they were under some pressure.I removed my bag and kept it on the floor, asking, “Hey, what is wrong? Why do you all look so weird?”Jada, who was busy changing the tablecloth, shivered visibly when I spoke up. “Miss Whitemane…” She spoke softly, a mask of fear in her face.I furrowed, seeing her change the tablecloth. I asked, “What are you doing? Why are you tidying up the table out of the blue? And where did you get that tablecloth from, don't remember buying it.”“Because I asked her to.” Draven spoke up from behind me, scaring the literal hell ou

For others, my existence is not even worth acknowledging.”“What are you saying? I heard you did a lot of things for the pack. You even solved some rogue issue.”“Yeah, I did.” I said, “It was just a two-day pomp and joy. After the sand settled, I was back to being the plain, old, wolfless girl hated by the entire pack.”Xavier did not say anything about the fact that I was wolfless.

A tall, lean man wearing spectacles got out of the car and made his way towards Xavier.“Boss, are you alright?” This man was Brandon, Xavier's assistant and the one who had been representing him all these years.If people had any doubt regarding Xavier's claims, it must have vanished the second Brando

I had no idea that Xavier had bought Florence, but I wasn't surprised; he had already mentioned that he was here to expand his business. What better way to expand your business than by buying the largest commercial hub of the pack?The words that XS bought the bar quickly spread amongst the group and it caused a whole other set of arguments.“Ain’t no way he is Xavier Stone!”“He could be.

I have seen plenty like you; you get your sugar daddy to get you the membership and walk in with your poor etiquette, corrupting the whole environment.”“Mister, watch your tone.” Sonia stepped in to defend me, “You can't just bad mouth us by assuming random things.”“I am assuming?” The guard laughed, “Florence is not a place everyone can hang out in.
