Lost in an Alpha's Embrace

Emily's mind was restless as she walked out of he's office. She couldn't believe what he had proposed. Sponsorship, fame, fortune it all seemed too good to be true . but as she walked out I f the office she was overjoyed because she she just made a big sell, James had chosen to manage her even when she knew they were bigger opportunities he had to assist more artist he gave them up for her cause he trusted her, he asked her on seeing her exit the office.

"how did it go?James asked We did it James turmoil is a go,"

she said showing her thump the both hugged but pulled back immediately, they realized they were in public and had started getting stares. As the left she called rain and Alex on a joint callto share the good news putting the call on loud speaker,

"girl we are so happy for you "Alex said" yea em we have always known you to be pretty creative and turmoil is worth every joy you feel

Now "rain also said," and toy guys know what to celebrate our success I'll host a little celebration for Emily I'll send you guys the location be there on time it's for Emily "James said, thanks guys am so happy right now Ailt I gotta go let's meet up later OK" she said before cutting the call, "thanks so much James truly" she said, "it's alright honey, it s been quite a day go take some rest and you can all meet OK I'll handle the paperwork now," waving he's hands to her as he had stopped a cab for her to get home, she waved back smiling at him.

She was really happy at that moment perhaps everything will go smoothly from now on she thought.James took it up to send them the location of the celebration and they all agreed on it.

As she arrived at her apartment, taking off her shoe and her coat she headed to her room, her room had a lavender paint, her shelf filled with books she was a novel lover and she had a pet fish, mailo was he's name her dad had given him to her on her when she left the country side to the city he's been with her ever since taking he food and pouring it for him she stared at his colorful body, she slumped on her bed her eyes closed one step at a time she thought feeling excited.

She suddenly remembered Max's offer, what was he going to ask for in return she didn't want to blindly put her fate in a man she didn't know, OK she thought sitting up yes we had a thing going on the other night but that isn't enough, she's not a teenager anymore she needs to forget what happened that night and focus now it about the future. She groaned with frustration maybe am feeling too much on the negative aspect inside of the positive side, she calmed her breathing pushing aside her doubts and focused on the potential benefits. With Max's backing, she could take her art to the next level,She could showcase her work to a global audience and make a real name for herself.

But she knows we pretty well that with such fame and popularity she would have to outdo competing artist woo collectors of she wanted to stay on top. She had her skill and more importantly her determination.
