Dear Ex Wife Please take me back by The Every Woman

Chapter 148

ALEX

I knew it the second Luca dragged me into the damn restaurant, waving some bullshit excuse about trying a new steak, I'd regret it.

I was having a good week and was looking forward to seeing Athena. I had to leave the following morning because I had a work emergency.

But I had lan and Isabelle ensure she did her tests. The meeting turned to shit and I had to stay out of the country for some days till It was fixed.

Seeing it was only 7PM and Athena only got out at 10PM, I gave into Lucas's annoying demand.

But nothing could have prepared me for this.

Her hand in his.

His thumb stroking over her skin like he owned it.

And that look, that look in her eyes when he leaned in.

I felt my blood freeze.

Then boil.

She was about to kiss him.

She was actually going to kiss Zayan.

I could have killed men for less.

The sight before me rips something open in my chest. All the progress I thought we were making laughed me in the face.

Was there ever progress?

Standing here, watching the woman I fucking love to death give someone else the softness that used to be mine makes me feel things I can't explain.

But they all end with this fucker burried six feet under.

Luca's voice breaks the air.

"Well, this is cozy."

Zayan freezes, turning his head. Athena stiffens in place, her lips parting slightly in shock.

I step forward, my voice low but cracking like thunder through the restaurant.

"What the fuck are you doing with my wife?"

Zayan laughs.

The bastard actually leans back in his seat, drapes an arm over the booth like this is funny.

"You're delusional, man. Your wife? You're divorced, you piece of shit," he sneers. "And she's My girlfriend. So I'd say what we do doesn't concern you."

Girlfriend?

The word punches me harder than I expect. My fists clench at my sides.

Luca apparently finds it amusing because he smiles as he asks.

"Girlfriend?"
