Alex's POVUnexpected things when you least look forward to it. We found out that Emma was pregnant. I had nothing to say.Unlike typical men who would get pissed at seeing their love interest being pregnant with another guy, I was blank. I was determined to support her no matter what! If she wanted to keep the baby, I was willing to even step up as their father figure. But it was not that simple… What if she wants to get back together with him for the baby? What if he continues to mistreat her?Emma was extremely happy after she found out that she was pregnant and so was I seeing her like that, despite the things that were bugging me. Just when we thought that nothing extreme could happen now, she was arrested right in front of me for attempting to commit homicide on Stella.I was shocked beyond belief when I saw her getting dragged out of the hospital. I was only supposed to help her with her divorce but there was no way I was leaving her alone. I used my connection to pull out t
Alex's POVHealer rogues were nomads, they had no fixed place where they lived. When I picked Natalie up from the office, I could not tell her where I was taking her. I was in disbelief myself! We all had accepted that she was dead. So, when she was standing there, alive and breathing, we did not know what to do.Emma immediately launched herself into our arms before breaking down in tears. It took us a good thirty minutes to accept that she was alright. Apparently, the healers picked her up from the crash site and brought her back to her pack. Not only did they manage to save Emma but also her baby. I could not thank the healers enough. I offered to give them money or a permanent place to settle but they refused. It was just so true that kindness can never be bought with money.The first thing that Emma asked us was how Draven was and if he was looking for her.Natalie and I looked at each other and told her how he let out a search troop for her. Emma looked us dead in the eyes a
Alex's POV‘My fantasies broke when I was stopped by the security of the apartment complex. I rolled down my window and peeped out, "It's me, man.""Oh, Me Frost. Here to meet Miss Whitemane again?" The man asked as he pressed the buttons to open the gate."Yes." I said, "She is my plus one to the ball.""That's cool." The man smiled. Emma always forbade me from talking about her to anyone, thinking that it would give them the wrong ideas but I was going to not listen to her tonight. She was my date to the ball and everyone was going to find out about it.I stopped at the parking lot closest to her block and called her. "Hey, are you here?" She asked as soon as she picked up the call.I said, "Yeah. Should I come to get you?""No, no. I am on my way downstairs." She said."Okay." I turned off the car engine and got out of the car. The temperature had dropped lately and I had to put on two blazers to cope with it. I leaned on the car and was scrolling through the phone, people were a
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
