I Became An Alpha After Divorce のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 251 - チャプター 260

Emma's POVThat night, after the twins had gone to bed, I couldn’t shake the restless feeling that gnawed at me. Natalie, Alex and the girls from the hospital kept calling me to check on me every now and then. Merely even dropped by to see how I was doing after her shift ended.These people did not just make me feel loved but also secured. It felt nice to see people actually care about me but I was still not content.I needed to do something, anything, to regain control over my life. I had been working at the hospital for four months now and despite everything, it had been a place of stability. But now, in the wake of everything that had happened, I couldn’t help but feel like it was another part of the life I was trying to leave behind. I needed to move forward, I knew I was going to move out of this pack very soon and restart my life. I did not want to stalk it anymore, I wanted to start the process of moving on right away.Without thinking, I grabbed my coat and left the house, hea

Emma's POVThe suggestion hung in the air between us, filling the silence with a potential that both excited and intimidated me. “A trip?” Ashel echoed, her interest piqued.“Yeah,” Alex said, looking over at me. “A little getaway. Get out of the house for a while. Change of scenery might do you all good.”He continued further, “It’s been a tough few weeks, Emma, for all of you. Maybe a change of scenery will help you all take your minds off things. The kids will get a break from school, and you will get some time to breathe.”I didn’t know how I felt about it at first. A trip meant leaving the comfort of home, leaving the familiar, and that terrified me. But then again, Alex had a way of making things seem simpler than they were. Maybe I needed that. Maybe we all did.I glanced at Asher and Ashel, who were now both eagerly nodding, their faces lighting up at the idea of an adventure. “You think it would help?” I asked Alex, my voice quieter now, almost uncertain.“Of course.” He sai

Emma's POVThe restaurant buzzed with chatter and the clinking of silverware, but none of it mattered to me. The noise and the laughter all faded into the background as my gaze swept desperately across the room. The twins were nowhere to be seen.I checked the corners, scanning every table, hoping to catch a glimpse of their faces. Nothing. I could not find them anywhere!My heart hammered in my chest as panic started to crawl under my skin. It was unlike them to wander off, to be out of my sight for so long. I forced myself to breathe, taking slow, deliberate breaths as I stood up from the table."Excuse me." I said, my voice tight as I approached the nearest waitress, "Have you seen two children, about six years old? Twins, a boy and a girl?"The young woman blinked at me, her eyes wide with confusion, "I am sorry, ma’am, I haven’t seen any kids around here."Frustration coiled inside me, but I forced myself to stay calm, "Are you sure? They were just here, playing around."She ga

Emma's POVAlex held his ground, but I could see the tension in his posture. He was trying to defuse the situation, to keep Draven from escalating further.I said, “Let's… Let's not do this. I…”Draven turned to me, almost screaming in my face, “Why are you like this, Emma? Why are you so stubborn? Why could you not just listen to me?”“I…” I did not have any answer for it, “I did not know it was serious…”He scoffed, “You must have thought that I was doing it to sabotage your little vacation, didn't you?”I pursed my lips, too ashamed to admit it. I have lost my kids because of my pride and ego, how can I ever admit to doing something so horrible?Draven started again, “You have lost the kids, Emma! It is entirely your fault.”His words were hitting me like nail hitting the coffins. I felt my eyes stinging with tears as I kept staring at my feet. I could not even look up to meet his eyes! Even though Draven was not the best father, he always made sure to go an extra mile to make sure

Emma's POVA lump formed in my throat, and before I could stop myself, I rushed forward. "Please... don’t hurt them." I cried, my voice shaking as I reached for Draven's phone. He held it firmly, keeping it out of my grasp, but his expression faltered, just for a second. I saw the conflict in his eyes—his desire to stay calm for me, to protect me from this nightmare, but also the terrifying certainty that this wasn’t a bluff. "Give it to me.” I pleaded, my hands trembling as I reached for the phone again. "Please… let me talk to them. Please…"Draven turned to me, his gaze softening just for a moment, "Emma," he said, his voice a quiet command, “Let me take care of this, okay?” He wasn’t angry, nor was he trying to silence me. But there was something in his eyes that told me he needed to keep control. He needed to remain steady, to be the pillar I had always seen him as. My hands dropped to my sides, my fingers clenched into fists as I tried to swallow my rising panic. I nodded,
