Emma's POV“Emma, wait!” Draven followed me out of the room in an attempt to stop me but I turned a deaf ear to his words. “Sorry, can't do! I have work.” I said as I hurried down the stairs and ran out of the house.I caught a cab and got myself to the main hospital. The hospital was really crowded today because of the large intake of patients.I walked inside the ward and saw Merely checking on a patient. I went to her and said, “Hey!”“Emma? What are you doing here? Weren't you appointed to take care of the Alpha?” She asked.“Yeah, I was. I checked him and he is alright. He doesn't need a nurse so I came over here to help you all.”Merely laughed, “You could have been of some help if you came a little sooner. We are done with our work here! Doctor James said that we may get to go back home early as well.”“Damn, I think I missed all the fun.” The two of us were giggling until we heard Ducian's voice, “Emma, what are you doing here?”“Doctor, I went to the Alpha's place. I checked
As soon as Draven’s words fell, my parents’ faces lit up like a bloody Christmas tree. They said, “Did you not see the news? The rumors of your divorce are the latest talk of the town.”“Wow, I never knew that.” He commented nonchalantly before dealing with his cards.My mind was a mess right now and I was compelled to interrupt.I said, “Draven. What are you talking about? Weren't we going to get a divorce?”“That was just a misunderstanding.” He looked at my parents and said, “Emma was upset with me because of a few things and impulsively wanted to get a divorce but everything is okay now. We are working on our relationship.”“Good good!” My mother said, “I don't understand the system of divorce. If the Moon Goddess has brought you together, it is a blessing. One should not irrationally end a marriage and bring disgrace to her blessing.”I glared at the man sitting next to me. If I could, I wanted to dig all my nails on his neck and drink his blood.Now there was no way I would ever
Emma's POV I shut my mouth and glowered at him!The two of us stayed like that for a while until we heard the housekeeper scream, “I did not see anything.”I darted my eyes towards the kitchen to see the old housekeeper running back inside. Seems like she misunderstood us; I mean… what would you think if you walk I on a woman on top of a man. Self-conscious, I rolled off the man and forcefully pulled my hands off his grab, “Draven, stop messing around.”“Okay okay! Don't be fierce.” He sat up on the sofa. Was he not bothered that his housekeeper had misunderstood us?Sherra came downstairs twenty minutes later with a big suitcase. Her ride was here and she was prepared to go off to the spa trip.Before leaving, she hugged the Alpha, “Take care, son. I have already called Stella, she will be here soon to take care of you. You won't need useless people around you.” She said the last line looking up at down at me as if I was something nasty. I rolled my eyes and did not bother to bicke
Emma's POVI stepped back and clutched my heart, “Gosh, you scared me.”The man did not say anything and went back to sit on the sofa, typing something on his laptop. I picked out a set of pajamas, I was surprised that he even had the ones I was contemplating throwing away back then.I shut the closet door in a daze and asked, “Why do you still have my clothes?”“Huh?”Draven looked up from his laptop. He saw the pajamas in my hand and guessed what I must have asked him. He said, “I could not make myself throw them away.”I could feel my heart pound inside me rapidly, “Why?”“I don’t know. I just felt like not throwing them away.”I then asked, “Is Stella okay with this?”“She doesn’t know.”I cocked an eyebrow, “What do you mean she doesn’t know?”The man explained, “She doesn’t come to my room very often and the wardrobe stays locked all the time. I got it opened today because you were staying.”“...” I did not know what to say or what was more strange- the fact that he hid this from
Emma's POV“Yaay!” Ashel jumped off my lap and hugged Draven's tall legs.Asher was stunned, he looked at his father as if he had betrayed him and asked, “I think we talked this through.”“I know and I respect your points. They were valid. But it is my personal choice.” The Alpha said like a wise sage. I don't know why but I was angered by his sudden switch in answer. Did he have to be so petty to go all the way to change his philosophy just to go against me?I sneered, “It is easy for you to say. I am rich.”“You are right. I am rich, that is why I am more eligible to give this answer.” The man picked up Ashel and made her sit next to him, “Money can buy you luxury but as Ashel said, it can't buy you happiness. You need a family for that!” Draven put extra stress on his last sentence. I could not understand what he was trying to say, I asked, “It is all just for show. Tell me, would you give up on your wealth for your kids?”“I will.” He said without hesitation. Asher interjected,
“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
