Chapter 98 ~ What I need you to be

ALEX

Not many things move me. I've had countless women attempt the tactic of trying to make me jealous, and not one had succeeded.

So, tell me why I feel like ripping this brunette's head off for placing his lips where they shouldn't be.

Athena is my ex-wife.

Hell I don't even know when this feeling started but fuck, my blood is boiling right

now.

I was happy and content with watching her dance and have fun with Rayen. The light in her eyes which has been shinning when she's looking at him made me want to watch more when the idiot came from nowhere and ruined the moment.

Rayen's eyes meet mine from over her shoulder, his little scowl matching the one I'm wearing. At least someone in this damn room gets it.

I watch her whisper something to him. I can't hear the words, but I don't need to.

She lifts Rayen in her arms with that gentleness only she has, and starts toward my table.

And for a split second, the rage turns into something else. Something dangerous. Something I shouldn't want.

But the moment Zayan's hand brushes her lower back as she walks away from him?

It's like the world tilts and I want to set it on fire.

I take a deep breath and fix my expression.

Cool. Blank.

But on the inside, I'm seconds away from snapping.

Athena walks up to me, her eyes flicking to mine with a smile she's trying hard to keep neutral.

And yes you guessed right.

The smile isn't for me.

When Athena looks at me, it's only hatred and anger I see in her eyes. But that shouldn't bother me because I feel the same.

Right?
