Ashton's POV

' Emelia Carter huh....or should I call her Emelia Walker now. It would be suitable since she was now married into the Walker family, a multi-billionaire family that owned one if the greatest entertainment business in the world '

And to think someone like her had once been married to the likes of my brother, it was still hard for me to believe. Damien had not only abused the woman, but he had shattered her heart to pieces when he had taken her sister as a lover, then went on to illegally harvest her organ to save his mistress. This was indeed a tragic villain story. I understand why Emelia had decided to marry someone else just to have enough power to get revenge. It was the one explanation why she was back here and demanding to do business with my company, a company I had taken from Damien.

I sighed as I read through Emelia's files. As amusing as I found all this, I can't dismiss the fact that my brother's Ex was now a threat to me. If I wasn't careful she might be able to discover my secret, afterall she had spent three years married to Damien, surely she must not know him enough to be able to decipher him from a lookalike. And to make matters worse, I had been ignorant of her when she first approached me, because I hadn't known who she was then. It was a mistake that might come to bite me in the back later.

This was all so frustrating. I had managed to get rid of Damien and take over the family business with only a few people knowing the truth, if others found out about it then it would no doubt spell trouble for me and what I was trying to achieve.

" Alpha, What do you plan to do with her?" Deric asked, he hadn't left after delivering the files to men

" There's not much I can do to her. This isn't the Lycan Empire, my actions won't go without repercussions here. Also, she isn't just an ordinary woman now, her involvement with the Walker family makes her hard to simply dispose of "

" She is familiar with Damien, and unlike Sasha who is terrified of you, Emelia has all the protection she needs from her husband. If she discovers the truth then she can easily expose you. She won't be threatened into silence "

" You are stating the obvious " I scoffed in displeasure. Deric knew to no longer say anything when I was in such a sour mood. To say I wasn't pleased with this development would be an underestimation. It was already hard having to deal with Sasha and Damien's mother ( I would never admit she was my mother as well ), if Emelia found out it would only complicate matters. And I couldn't simply hope to avoid her, not while she was insisting we work together. And knowing how much my company would need this business deal, it would be wise to turn it down unless I wanted to make the media suspicious.

" Fuck!" I slammed my fist hard on the table, the coffee mug I had left by the edge of the table tipped over and smashed into pieces. Deric didn't comment. I ran my fingers through my hair and sighed deeply. " There's no point stressing over this. I'll simply do my best to stay in character whenever I am around her. Do well to wake me up for tomorrow's meeting "

" Of course "

" You may retire for the night "

" Yes Alpha "

Deric left the office. I stayed behind and read more on Emelia, what stood out to me the most was her rocky relationship with Damien in the earlier years before their marriage. They had been together briefly, but my brother had dumped her and gotten together with Sasha. So why then did she agree to marry him after his betrayal, surely she mustn't have been stupid enough to think he would give Sasha up. In a way whatever happened had also been due to her own stupidity. But again love was hard to overcome, I feel bad for her. But not enough to let her ruin my plans.

I retired for the night, choosing to get enough rest before I would have to encounter Emelia tomorrow. However, a thought occurred to me. If my brother's ex wife was back, then it would only be a matter of time before she contacted her sister, and Sasha was one of the two people who knew about me. But she knows better than to open her big mouth, she would regret it if she does. Still, I would have to speak to her soon

I was awakened to the sound of my phone ringing. I reached for it groggily " Yes Deric "

" Alpha! Don't tell me you are still sleeping, did you forget about the meeting?"

I glanced at the time, I hadn't realised that it was this late. I must have been more tired than I realised. " Right, I'll be right there "

" Emelia would be pissed. Please don't forget that she is the sole heir to the Walker Corp, if she doesn't sign this deal then your company would be at risk of going bankrupt. Your entire plan would be jeopardised "

" Enough stating the obvious Deric. Send the team there first, I'll be with them shortly " I cut the call and got out of bed, getting ready however was another matter entirely. I cleaned my teeth and did my best to tame my hair, but before I could think of taking a shower, my phone was being blown up by calls from my directors. With a sigh I went to my car and set off for the Walker Corp
