Ducian's POVI was weirdly anticipating her arrival, I don't know why. Maybe I was just fascinated by her knowledge in this field and wanted to know more about her.I was surfing through my books when I heard a minute knock on the door. "Come in." I said nonchalantly, even though I knew who it was."Sir, you called me?" A very womanly voice asked me and I was stunned. Why was her voice so melodious? I have met many women in my life, all thanks to the blind dates set up by my mom, but none of them had a voice as charming as hers.I turned around to look at her and… everything changed.I could feel my heartbeat rising. I didn't even know that it was humanly possible to feel your pupils expand but I could feel mine do it. I could feel my pulse throbbing at my pressure points and the level of dopamine coursing through my veins.I was even feeling weird contractions in my lower abdomen. It was like my adrenaline gland was going insane there.She looked so… pretty!"Emma?" My mouth involun
Emma’s POVI was internally screaming…I was promoted to head nurse! A freaking head nurse! Can you believe it? I certainly cannot.The whole way downstairs, I was lost in my own thoughts. I did not expect Doctor James to be this chill, the girls sure made a very wrong impression of him in my head. Speaking of impressions, I made a complete fool of myself before the doctor. Why would I mention that to him? Why did I not use my brain and check his name once?Thank goodness he was chill about it and did not take it seriously. If it was Draven he would have fired me along with everyone.The girls are gonna hear about this from me.I went back to the nurse’s room to tell the girls about the promotion. They all were thrilled more than I was!“This is the best decision ever! We all needed a head nurse and who could be a better candidate than Emma!” Merely exclaimed.Doctor Andrews too congratulated me while he was on his rounds. He also told me that he believed in me and was already conside
Emma's POV"Draven?" I fluttered my eyes open; he looked far more furious than confused. He was a tall, well-built Alpha, capable of crushing me like a twig.He dragged his eyes to the knife in my hand as if he was asking me for an explanation. That was when I was reminded that my hand was still in his grip; I tried to withdraw but he tightened his hold on me, refusing to let go.I said, “I am sorry. I thought you were an assassin.”“What?” He threw away my hand as if it were some filth and entered the house, without saying anything.“Hey, stop.” I meekly tried to stop him and followed him in.I locked the door and gingerly hugged my waist, “Why are you here?”He sat down on the couch and stared daggers at me, I could say that he was upset but I did not know what for. Him just sitting there, looking at me silently was making me uncomfortable.I asked, “Will you just tell me why you are here?”“You tell me. Why do you think I am here?” He finally uttered.“Me? How would I… Wait, are th
“They said I can never compete with her and take the throne in his heart. But, honey, there is no competition! She can have the throne of his heart while I take the throne of the pack.” -Asmitha (I became an Alpha after Divorce) __________________________________ Emma’s POV “Ahhhh.” I accidentally knocked off the vase from the table while scrubbing the floor. I immediately grabbed the vase to check if it was fine even though my back was hurting because of the hit. Fortunately, the antique was alright, saving me a heavy bashing from the owners of this house. “Emma! Where in the Moon Goddess’s name are you?” Sherra Sinclair, my mother-in-law, came bragging into the room. The anger on her face escalated when she saw me on the floor. “You witch, it’s already time for dinner and you are still cleaning the floor? Where is the food? Do you want to starve me and Desiree?” She seethed. I darted my eyes toward the wall clock and realized that it was indeed time for dinner. I got up at onc
Emma's POV "What are you doing? Let me go!" I was shocked by his sudden action and tried to break free from his clutch. But the more I resisted, the harder he pinned me. A mocking smile appeared on his face as he said, "Trying to be modest, are we, Emma? Are you gonna deny that this was what you wanted?" "What do you mean?" I stared into his dark blue eyes which reminded me of the night sky. This was the first time he was this close to me and I couldn't help but notice his exquisite features. He was blessed with almond eyes and long curly lashes, paired with a strong set of eyebrows. He had a bridged nose and thin pink lips, all accommodating in his rectangular face with a square jawline. Alpha Draven was the most handsome man in our pack and every time I looked into his eyes, I remembered why I fell in love with him in the first place. He said, "Didn't you just complain to my mother that I wouldn't sleep with you?" My face reddened with embarrassment, I did not expect that v
Emma's POVThree weeks later…The sizzle of the stake filled the kitchen, indicating to me that it was cooked to perfection. I turned off the stove and wiped my hand on my apron. The dinner was ready and now I waited for Draven to come back home.Draven left for a business trip the same night while I was still asleep and I did not bother him as he is usually very busy during those trips. Yesterday I found out that he came back to the pack three days ago and today he called me to tell me that he was coming home tonight.I was elated. Today was our wedding anniversary and I was so happy that he remembered.I finished arranging the dishes on the table and lit up the fragrant candles. It was the first time we were going to face each other after that night, I wanted it to be special. Maybe his feelings for me have changed.Maybe he was going to say that he loves me.Maybe I will get pregnant with his child and we can finally start our life together.My train of thought was stopped by the
Emma's POVI 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
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?"
