Dear Ex Wife Please take me back by The Every Woman

ALEX

"I hope whatever you called us out for is important because I'll make you pay for making me leave my honeymoon earlier than planned." I grit my teeth as I pull out a chair for my wife.

"You've been gone for a month, Alex. Please spare me the dramatics!" Sloane

rolls her eyes.

"Rayen probably thought you're both dead now." Isabelle adds, making me shoot daggers at her.

"Izzy! Don't say such things to provoke him." Athena says with a shake of her head.

I sigh, too bad she loves this red head. I would have organized a clean way for her to disappear for uttering such nonsense.

"It is very important! It's not a new sex style lesson, but it's still valid." Luca takes a seat leaning against the chair.

"You're a bunch of idiots. Sloane, why did you call us? I don't have all the time in the world."

She rolls her eyes and then leans forward.

"I'm planning lan's birthday."

The room erupts with a collective groan.

"You're kidding me," Luca mutters, slumping back in his chair like she just told him the unicorns were real. "That's the big emergency?"

"I should've stayed behind," I mutter, rubbing my jaw. "You dragged me off a private island just to plan a party for that idiot?"

"Excuse me!" Sloane raises a brow, completely unfazed. "He's your best friend! Also, if you call him names again, I'll jump you while your wife watches. Do you want her to see you being beaten up by a girl?"

She crosses her arms, pushing her silver blond hair back, I swear this girl is the reason I'm afraid of having daughters.

"It's my favorite man's birthday." She continues, " That's an emergency."

"I'm with you, girl! It's totally urgent." Athena gives her a reassuring squeeze on the hand.

“Oh for fuck's sake,” I scoff. “I haven't even approved of this relationship. If he does anything stupid, know that I'll put him six feet under, Sloane. The fucker is my best friend as you've said. So, don't put me in that position.”

"Gee, thanks for the love, dear brother." she grins, "Good to know the man I love is still on your murder list."

"He never left it," I reply flatly.

"Can we not talk about murder over cake?" Isabelle sighs, grabbing a notepad and pen from her bag. "Sloane, what's your plan? Before these cavemen start throwing punches?"
