Here's the thing. It was her choice to become empress. Geralt doesn't make her become empress, and neither does Emhyr. She chooses to become empress because she realizes that she can do far more good in the world in that position, especially considerng that ending only occurs if Nilfgaard conquers the Northern Kingdoms. Her freedom isn't taken from her, she voluntarily gives it up for the greater good.

All that being said, I still prefer the Witcher Ciri ending, though for a different reason. I believe that Geralt would never take Ciri to Emhyr. After everything Emhyr put her through in the saga (not directly, perhaps, but Emhyr was still responsible for Vilgefortz and his band), there is no way in hell Geralt is going to bring Ciri to see him.
