The Alpha’s Obsession with his Ex-Contract Luna by Glorious Eagle novel Chapter 4

Chapter 4 – Sheila’s Apology

The shriek had woken the members of the pack house, but Tedmond managed to get Athena back to sleep, which was easy because the shriek did not sound like Sheila.

It could only be equated to one of the omegas. Only Bree had descended the stairs, stopping right in the middle.

“What’s going on here?” Alpha Nick growled from upstairs, hastening to help Charlotte from the floor. The latter wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, shivering in his arms as she was lifted from the floor like a baby.

The scene was painful to Sheila’s eyes. Thinking that Alpha Nick lacked emotions, it was obvious that it was just towards her. The softness and care in his gaze as he looked at Charlotte caused Sheila to realize that all the years she spent loving this man were useless.

He would never feel for her even an ounce of what she felt for him.

“Nick, the bitch slapped me and she said you could rot in hell,” Charlotte cried pitifully, and Sheila’s jaws dropped.

Even after all that Charlotte did, she never hated the latter. They were once best friends, and she was grateful to have been given the opportunity to be with the man she loved, though it was just a waste of time.

After knowing that Charlotte still meant bad for her, Sheila drew the lines of hatred in her heart.

“Why did you slap her?”

Alpha Nick’s tone produced ice, and the temperature in the living room dropped, but Sheila had had enough. She didn’t want to be a part of what was coming.

Biting down her anger, she sneered, “So what if I slapped her? She deserved it anyway.”

Bree was shocked since she never saw Sheila talk back to the Alpha before. Did she not value her life? How could she dare to slap the Alpha’s mate?

Charlotte was equally shocked but happy that Sheila agreed. If she left a bad impression of Sheila on Alpha Nick’s mind, she was certain that the latter would never think about her as good, even if she refused the alimony.

“I demand that you apologize to her,” Alpha Nick commanded, disappointed that Sheila could do a thing like that.

Like a blanket over the sun, he was even more surprised that she admitted it. Charlotte was excited when Sheila walked up to her with rage-filled eyes. The bitch was so easy to manipulate. No wonder she couldn’t capture Alpha Nick’s heart.

Thinking that Sheila was going to apologize to her, the pain on her cheek accompanied by the sound of a slap brought everyone in the living room, including the few omegas, to a standstill.

Sheila’s head was proudly raised as Charlotte’s cheeks turned bloody red from slapping herself and being slapped at the same spot by Sheila.

Alpha Nick wanted to burst from anger and was about to order the warriors to deal with Sheila when she shrugged.

Her eyes shimmered, and her voice was comical. It was as if she had been transformed into a different person. “Oops, I’m sorry for slapping you. I didn’t before, but I have now.”

Part of Charlotte’s reddened face turned white, and she was speechless. Before Alpha Nick could utter a word, Sheila spun around. Reaching the door, she announced,

“See you in court tomorrow at 11 a.m. Let’s get this over with.”

Her slim silhouette disappeared from the entrance, as the warriors looked up to their Alpha.

They saw everything that transpired and were already hating Charlotte. It seemed that their smart Alpha was fooled by his mate.

“Alpha, should I go after her? Madam took nothing. She might not even have transport money,” one of the warriors asked. He didn’t want to directly expose the Alpha’s mate, knowing how futile that could be.

As Sheila walked out of the grand mansion, she dialed Goldie’s number. “Goldie, if you aren’t far, please come and get me.”

She was shocked at how fast Goldie arrived. Was it two minutes? “What happened?”

Sheila held out her copy of the divorce papers to her as she was about to walk around to sit in the passenger seat.

“It’s over. Charlotte is back, and he is attending the gala awards with her.” Bitterness laced Sheila’s voice, and she almost shed a tear.

The gala night was the first time she would have made a public appearance with Alpha Nick. She had a lot planned, hoping that Alpha Nick would begin to see her differently after that, but not anymore.
