Emma's POV

I kept the letter aside and picked up my phone. I went to the Blocklist and took his number off the list.

I texted him, “Hey. I am sorry for blocking you.’

He instantly replied, “Your text arrived sooner than I thought. How are you feeling?”

“Better. Thanks for taking care of me last night.”

“Don't thank me for this, Doll.” He then sent a text again, “You are too calm for someone who has read the information in the file.”

I giggled, “That is because I did not read the file yet.”

“You unblocked me without reading it!?”

“Yes. I blocked you for the false promises a undeserving man made to me. I have my priorities straight now and I am very clear about who cares for me and who doesn't.”

“Good.”

I did not reply further and locked the phone but just then Natasha facetimed me. As soon as I picked up the call, she screamed at me, “EMMA! WHERE ARE YOU?”

She was in a car with Alex who was driving it.

“Emma?” The man peeped into the screen as well, he was relieved to see me safe, “Ts

    Emma's POVTwo days later…I was in front of the mirror, doing my makeup. I did not want to look dull at a fancy party. The banquet was a masquerade ball with the theme as the ‘Victorian Era'. I did not want to spend money on this stupid party so I borrowed a dress from Natasha. It was a pale blue dress, it was a safe color and would not attract much attention.Since I did not have an invitation on my own, I took Natasha's. Since my face would be covered, it was not like they would recognise me. And, I was going together with Alex for extra safety; he would handle things if they go South.The party was at Natasha's father's pack which was a three hour drive from here.Alex said he would pick me up in ten minutes.The kids sat watching me get ready and said, “You look pretty, mommy.”“Thank you, sweetie.” I smiled at Ashel.As for Asher, he was straight to the business, “Did you rehearse what you are going to say?”“Yes, sir. I did.”“Good.” He jumped off the bed and came to me. Passi

    Emma's POV Alex hung his head, feeling dejected. He turned around and looked out of the window, possibly to hide the sorrow overwhelming in his eyes. I asked, “Alex… Are you okay?”“Yeah, I am.” He took his time to reply and turned to look at me with the same bright smile he always does. But there was something about this smile which made it look dishonest, he was faking it.I said, “I am sorry…”“Hey, don't be.” He patted my head, “I love you, you are not obliged to reciprocate it to me. If anything, you have already reciprocated the love to me with the kindness you showed. I was supposed to die that day, I had accepted my fate but you gave me a second chance and motivated me to achieve whatever I am today.”I fell silent.Back when I was still in the city, Alex once told me about this in a drunk spur. I was shocked to know what all he had done just to be able to stay in the same pack as me. Ironically, it reminded me of myself but with Draven. I was the same hopeless romantic, wan

He looked delighted as he walked up to his daughter and hugged her. The marriage of their daughter is everyone's dream and it was showing on his face how content he was right now.As far as I remember, Stella's father was not very happy with Draven in the initial days. His resistance to him grew stronger when he married me after Stella went into a coma.But now, he seemed to have accepted him for the sake of his daughter.Poor Alpha! I wonder how he will react when he finds out his daughter is not as innocent as she looks. Alex chuckled softly, piquing my curiosity. I gulped down the champagne in my mouth and asked, “What are you giggling about?”“Alpha Gracy must h

    Emma's POV“Kidnapped?”“Human traffickers?”The crowd started to chatter amongst themselves when they heard my allegations. Right after I got kidnapped, Draven's mother died and he disappeared. The pack was already going through so much that I never told people about what happened to me. Alex even encouraged me to go and file a report in the police station for my own safety but I refused as I was naively believing that Draven was looking into it and he would protect me.Draven's expressionless face clouded with seriousness, “What? Who is it?”I was taken aback by his question. Why… why did he want to know the identity of the culprit? Did he not disappear for two whole months and made it clear to me that he did not care about it!I came here hoping for Draven to not be ready to listen to me and chase me out of the venue. But now, that he was totally deviating from the script I have in my mind, I don't know what to do.Stella, who was watching all of this, finally spoke up, “Emma, what

He was furiously turning the pages but as soon as he too understood the content, his prideful face turned as pale as that of a ghost.He looked at his daughter and asked, “Stella, what is all this? Did you pay those men to kidnap her?”“I… I…” Stella could no longer deny or accept the truth in front of everyone.Even though she did not admit to it, people were not dumb. They know what had happened and started to criticize Stella without holding back.'Oh my God, can you believe this? She looks so innocent and harmless but she tried to get that poor girl sold.’'I never expected this from her. Alpha Gracy is such a good man, who would have thought his daughter would be such a bad nut.’'Imagine being a girl and capable of such sinister things. I wonder why she did it?’‘'Isn’t it evident?

    Emma's POVNo one came forward to help, even Alpha Gracy, who was responsible for the protection of everyone within his pack territories was standing there, stunned at the sight of his daughter who had gone savage.“I will kill you.” Stella growled at my face, “I was living a good life. Draven was mine but you had to come and ruin everything.”I managed to use all my force and pushed her aside, while she was on the ground, I attempted to run away but she grabbed my leg and pulled me back.I fell on the ground and she pinned me down, trying to dig her dagger right into my throat, “Why did you do this, huh? You are a rank-less wolf who was picked up from the forest. You are no one, why do you think you could be the Luna of a pack? Bitches like you who steal the lives of other women should be kicked out of the pack.”“Stella, stop!” I said but she was in no right mind to listen to me.“You are a whore and you deserve to be in a whore house.”“Enough.” Draven grabbed Stella and practicall

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

Xavier asked what I wanted to eat and was waiting for my answer which, obviously, he didn't get because I was lost in thoughts.Seeing that I was replying, he looked back and asked, “Are you okay, doll?”I shook from my fantasies and nodded, “I am sorry, I was thinking something.Xavier smirked cheekily as if he had read my thoughts and said, “No problem.

Xavier and I watched as the car departed from the parking lot. “They are nice. No wonder you said you liked working.” The man commented.I nodded with a smile, “They are the only people in this pack who actually treat me with respect. 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. So I asked, “You have nothing to say?”“About what?”“Me being wolfless.”“I don't care about it.” He said, “You are better than many wolves I know.”I smiled to conceal my self-pity, “That is what I tell myself to.” Neither of us was d

Wilson sold Florence to XS Group.”“What? When?”“A few days ago. Wilson is not the boss anymore.”“So… the new boss would be the CEO of XS?”I picked up from the conversation. 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. No one has ever seen him in real life.”“Yes, no one has ever seen him. He is always secretive about his identity.”“Exactly.

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.
