Alpha Nick’s curiosity increased. “Which number does she use? Her line doesn’t go through.”
Athena was happy to learn that he had tried reaching She after the divorce, only to get blocked. “She must have blocked your number, and trust me, o
It was just a fabrication to pique Alpha Nick’s interest, as Athena was not sure of it, but the look in Alpha Nick’s eyes was priceless. Seeing Athena all sm
“You are just ying pranks on me.”
Athena smiled evilly. “Let me do you a small favor. I will put the phone on speaker.” She did as said before asking,
“Hello dear, how are you today?”
She’s voice from the end of the line was full of excitement. “I’m very well, ma’am. I might not be able to call you tomorrow because I will be very busy.
Athena pressed the speaker button again, denying Alpha Nick
the opportunity of hearing more. Somehow, he couldn’t stand it and snatched the phone from her.
“Hey, Imand you to return my phone.” Athena tried to get her phone back from her son, but Alpha Nick held it above her head as he was taller.
“I just want to have a word with her,” he said politely, speaking into the handset without pressing the speaker button. He didn’t want anyone to hear their

“If you don’t answer my question, I will break everymunication channel between you and my mother.”
He emphasized the word ‘mother‘ to exert his authority. Both Athena and She were upset as Athena responded before She could, “You can’t do that
She couldn’t hear She’s words, but her son’s responses showed that the conversation was going south.
“Yes, I can. I will destroy her sim and get her a new one, or rather, I might just allow you to speak to her through my phone after destroying yours.”
Alpha Nick’s threat was directed at the woman at the end of the line. He knew how hurt she would be to not hear from Athena, taking advantage of it.
“Alpha Nick, what do you want from me?” She asked in exasperation. Alpha Nick got serious and said to her,
“I asked you of my offense.”
“Alpha Nick, in case you have forgotten, we are divorced, and I don’t like friendship with exes,” She said seriously over the phone. Even as her tone w

Alpha Nick was not pleased with her response, feeling like a failure. He tried another way. “Are youing for the g awards?”
“Nope. There is nothing there for me to
do there anyway,” She ensured to use the same words he said to her when she begged him to go to the g awards with her.
Alpha Nick had changed a lot ever since Charlotte’s return, being less cold and rather warmer. She even felt his warmth, but it was toote. Alpha Nick
“Why did you want to go with me before?” he asked softly. She was not polite in the least.
“Isn’t it obvious that I just wanted to show off that I was married to Alpha Nick? What are you thinking?”
Alpha Nick tasted bitterness in his mouth. Maybe she neverced his tone. “Thanks for being honest with me.”

“I guess that was your ex,” Tom’s voice drew him out of his thoughts.
Alpha Nick smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry. I forgot you were still here. Let’s go and eat.” The door pushed open once more, Dustin stepped in. It seeme
“Dustin, you must be hungry. Over here, let’s eat,” Alpha Nick invited him over. Dustin stared at Tom and smiled.
“Hi, Tom.”
“Dustin, how are you?” Tom asked. Dustin sat at the dining table and responded,
