She had lived with him under the sroof for six months, yet she had never even entered his room. Not once did he even pretend to like her, and now he wanted to go back to being what? His wife? "I think you are drunk. You should go home," Sheridan said, finding everything so ridiculous. The thing about her was, the moment the divorce was finalized, she knew there was no turning back.
She turned to leave, but Alpha Nick was quick to grab her by the arm, his lips smashing onto hers. When she saw the video of what happened, she thought it was because they had both been drugged, as Alpha Nick had never shown her affection before.

His cheeks burned from the hot slap Sheridan had just given him as she wiped her lips with the back of hér hand, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.
"Look atvery well. I am not Charlotte." Her voice was teary as so many emotions blended together. The fact that she had been caught up in a one-sided love for so long.

I love you, but I was just blinded by the bond." Sheridan knew that no one could fight the bond, but Charlotte? Everyone could see how manipulative she was except Alpha Nick. “Blinded? She rejected you, she?" Sheridan asked, feeling that didn't nothing would make Alpha Nick turn his back on Charlotte unless she indeed rejected him.

Sheridan had already put everything behind her, not intending to make a U-turn.
Her only focus at the moment was her pack and her business, nothing more. "We are already divorced, and I don't go back to my vomit." Alpha Nick felt she was right. It was too soon to remarry her. But before then, he just needed the opportunity to prove to her how much he needed her.
"You don't need to marry me, but I see the fire of vengeance in your eyes. Cback to the pack and let's get revenge on the people who destroyed us."

It's over between us," Sheridan said solemnly. She didn't try to wiggle out of his arms, but her cold glare was enough warning. Unfortunately, it was not enough to scare a man like Alpha Nick. "Sheila, I would never give up on you. I would keep coming to this pack every day until you givea suitable answer." Sheridan was afraid of that resolve, as her father was not aware that she had been married before. As such, she tried to discourage him. "Be careful, or you might be in trouble with my brothers." Alpha Nick was not afraid of her brothers. If he had to fight an army to get to her, he was ready to do so. "Sheila, what can I do to win you back?" He pulled away to have a better look at her face.

"Alright, giveyour number, or I would chere every day to see you," he said seriously. Sheridan smiled a little, happy for them to part on a friendly note.

"I believe you." Sheridan did not want to get used to the love he was showering on her. "Goodbye, Alpha Nick. Please don't chere again." Her words were ruthless, but there was a genuine smile on her face.
Alpha Nick did not agree, but neither did he refuse. It was enough that they were not at loggerheads. He left the Moon Shine Pack in tears, unknown to Sheridan, not having returned her earring.
