Can we now talk? You’ve been texting and smiling. It’s rude,” he gritted his teeth. He was angry and jealous. I raised my eyes and glared at Maybin.

[ Butterflies are swirling in my stomach as much as I would love to continue this. I need to finish this meeting] I responded to Luis’ text that said he missed me.

[ Be safe, and don’t let him get close to you, Witch]

Smiling, I put the phone away and gave my ex-husband my attention. However, my mind was not there. It was with Luis. I just wanted to go

home to him.

I’m all yours,” I said to Maybin.

“It doesn’t seem that way,” he snickered.

Just say your peace and sign the documents,” I groaned. Maybin pulled a face but smiled,

Well, you look beautiful. You always do,” he said.

Of course,”

Always secure. That’s one of the many things I love about you,” he said warmly.

Did you get me out of the comfort of my home because of this? T tell me what you love about me?” I sneered.

Well, I wanted to discuss our future,” he said, seriously. I raised my index finger to stop him right there. There was a future, but not OUR.

Please don’t put future and US in the same sentence. You are nowhere near my future and vice versa,” I made it clear.

I f ucking messed up, Zey. I regret it, and I was hoping you’d give me a second chance.”

Oh, that. I won’t do that. I love you and can’t lose you over

something frivolous,” he said, and I gaped at him,

Frivolous?!” I flared.” You f ucked my friend and plotted against my brother. Those are not inconsequential matters!”

“I

And I’m sorry. I was foolish to hurt you like that. You didn’t deserve it after everything you did for me. Please give me a second chance,” he begged. He seemed earnest.

Nevertheless, I wasn’t going to give him a second chance. I wanted better for myself.

I’m not giving you a second chance, Maybin. You had your chance. With me, there are no second chances!” I said firmly. I was never one

to fall back into a man’s arms after they betrayed and hurt me.

“I’m not granting you a divorce. Have you stopped to think about Apollo during this?” My heart stung when he mentioned his son. Apollo was his eleven-year-old son from his previous relationship. I got into the marriage when he was only six years old and I was twenty years old. I loved Apollo, and he loved me too. We had a special bond.

* Did you stop to think about him when you cheated, drugged and locked me up?” I retorted.

He pressed his lips together. I saw remorse in his gaze for a moment.

“I thought so…” I whispered,looking at him with disgust, “I already talked to him about the divorce,” I told him.

And how is he taking it?” His voice lowered

Apollo wasn’t taking it well. Hopefully, he will understand why I divorced Maybin one day. For now, he was too young to comprehend in detail what was happening. I just felt so bad because I promise him that I’d always be there for him and I wouldn’t leave him. Apo biggest fear was that I’d leave just like his mom did. I knew the A of growing up without two present parents. Dad was busy as an al and a billion dollar company. He also had a ha rem. He was there not really there for my brother and me. My mother abandoned me when I was ten months old. We talked as I grew up, but barely.

*You of all people should know how it feels to be abandoned,”

“I’m not abandoning him! I’d never,” said through gritted teeth, gripping the table.

But you’re leaving us,”

Not him, only you… you because of your infidelity! You used me and had no love for me in your heart. You only bring up Apollo because it serves you,”

“I know you don’t believe it, but I love him too,” he said.

“Yeah, that’s why you sent a five-year-old to study abroad because you loved him,” I scoffed, sarcasm lacing my words. He rarely went to see him. I was the only one who visited that poor boy and stayed with him for months in Sweden. I begged Maybin to take him from that boarding school but he refused.

“I did it for his good. You know how it was back then,” he was angry

because I called him out.

I stared into his eyes. He was taken aback by the strong aura that surrounded me. He coward. Goddess, how did I stay with this weasel of a man for almost five years?

‘it was a peaceful marriage,’ Zey chimed nonchalantly. She had no feelings left for Maybin anymore.

She was right. My years with Maybin weren’t bad. I dedicated my time to Apollo, the pack, and my work as a cyber security expert.

“You will give me the divorce, and Apollo will be fine. He will still be i my life,” With that said, I stood up and grabbed my purse and coat Maybin grabbed my wrist tightly and stared at me seductively. I restrained slapping him because we were in public. His eyes glinted

with malice.
