Chapter 81
“We shouldn’t have done that,” Sheridan said seriously after breaking from the kiss, guilt growing in her heart. The man before her was so different, but she still could not get over the one from her past.
In those days, he would not even come close or touch her, but now he was kissing her without any intention of stopping. It was too much for her, and sometimes she felt like the substitute bride she was to him.
Alpha Nick would have never been interested in her if he had not seen what Charlotte did. “You are the one who asked for the divorce, remember? You can’t eat your cake and have it back, Alpha Nick. You reap what you sow.”
Sheridan could not take it anymore. It hurt badly that when she tried to put everything behind her, all she remembered was the pain he caused her. Alpha Nick was slightly upset being addressed by his title.
He knew that she was drawing boundaries if she used it. “Stop calling me Alpha. I am not your Alpha.” There was a slight irritation in his tone, but Sheridan refrained from trying to comfort him.
Perhaps she had been too lenient. It wasn’t the same when she stayed by his side like an obedient wife.
“And you are equally not my man,” she stated casually. Alpha Nick was hurt but still could not be upset with her. If he had not found out about Charlotte’s betrayal, he would have never understood what Sheila went through.
Still, there was a spark in her eyes even when she refused him. “I know that love me. I can see it in your eyes.”
you still
The certainty in her voice annoyed her greatly as she realized that no matter how hard she tried, she could not hate it. “Then you aren’t seeing well. Please check. I am Sheridan, not Sheila.”
The stars were so bright, and everything was beautiful, with the exception of Sheridan’s mood.
“You are still the same person no matter how many names you use,” Alpha Nick stared into her eyes as he spoke. He did not want to look away, as every moment he spent with her mattered a lot to him. “Please, I know that I hurt you so much, but how can I make it up to you?”

Chapter 81
Sheridan lowered her gaze. When she decided to leave, she felt in her heart that he would regret it, but she never thought it would be so soon, “I warned you, I don’t g back to eat what I already vomited. I already moved on? There was no warmth in her voice, as she seemed upset.
It was true that Alpha Nick’s good intentions were always showcased differently every time he spoke.
“Please give me just one more chance. I promise not to mess it up” He knew he would not dare to mess it up. Her status did not matter to him. All he wanted was a chance to amend his ways.
Sheridan’s eyes stung with unshed tears. All she asked for was a few days‘ extension and for Alpha Nick to be her partner at the gala awards, but he mocked her instead,
Ah, she was trying so hard to forget the bitter past, but the more he begged her, the greater she felt the pain multiply.
“I’ve loved you for so long that it hurts. I just can’t do it anymore”
Sheridan saw him show love and affection to Charlotte. She knew he was capable. She also saw how Charlotte changed from one man to the other, finally settling on Tom. Then what happened? The man Sheridan had eyes on for a long time, loving him in secret, turned out to be Charlotte’s destined mate.
“I already know what you are capable of. I saw how you treated Charlotte. Every time I imagine a better you, she’s always there by your side.”
Alpha Nick was nodding his head. It was the same with him. After witnessing what she did at the gala awards night with Tom, that was all he could see when faced with her. All their happy moments blurred.
“I knew that would happen, and it’s the reason she’s still in my house. I want you to see what has become of the woman who destroyed us”

Sheridan shook her head. If not for the baby in her womb, she would have been happy for this revenge, but not anymore.
“She didn’t destroy us. You did. I was your wife, but you never even looked at me. You didn’t care if I lived or died. Even if it was just a contract, you should have treated me like a pack member, and that would have given me hope, but you treated me like an enemy. Nick, your presence only reminds me of the bad memories,” she said bitterly, adding.
“You said that you tried but still could not love me. Did you? How was that possible when all you ever thought about was Charlotte?”
