Chapter 81

“We shouldn’t have done that,” Sheridan said seriously after breaking from the k*ss, 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 k*ssing 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.
