Divorced by my husband, Rejected by Alpha Blake, now they want me back

Chapter One.

“I think we are both done pretending this marriage is headed anywhere, we are both miserable in it.” Asher said, my eyes darting to his dinner, he already took off his ring.

I felt my chest tightened, as tears threatened to tremble out of my eyes.

“Please don’t do this, Asher.” My lips trembled to let out. “I love you, I still do, and I know deep down you love me, you told me all about our perfect life two nights ago.”

I took a step toward my husband, the look in his eyes told me, he was long gone, that dream wasn’t ours anymore.

“Just tell me what I did wrong, please.” I begged.

Asher stared at me for a brief moment.

“Look at you, then look at me Amelia , we look pathetic. You don’t dress up anymore, you look like you have been dragged through the garbage, your hair is unkept, you look like you haven’t taken a shower for a months.”

“You know why.” I yelled. “I have been working day and night for us, because you lost your job.”

“Here we go again.” Asher rolled his eyes at me.

“Give me the ring.”

I froze.

My eyes darted to the ring, I haven’t taken it off for five years, I never imagine a day will come when this will happen.

“What?” I breathed out. “We can’t give up, I can change, once I sign the deal, we would get better, I would become the way I use to be, come on Asher, I told my brother-“

“Your fucking brother.” Asher yelled, his jaw ticked as he stared at me. “He is the reason behind all of this, I told you I don’t want you working for him, you defied me, and guess what, he never liked me, more reason for him to keep you all night because of a stupid meetings.” He yelled

My mind blanked out, Asher never raised his voice, not even in five years of marriage.

My lips quivered, I can’t lose him, I was this close to uttering another word when the sound of his phone ringing sliced through the conversation, my eyes darting to his screen.

Hannah.

I shook my head, it can’t be.

“Why is Hannah calling you Asher?” I asked.

“Just work.”

Work?

A bitter chuckle escaped my lips when the phone rang again, he attempted to not let me see the screen when my body reacted before my mind did, I pulled the phone away from his hand, and in instant, I placed the call on speaker.

“Baby, where are you? Have you told her, don’t let her manipulate you. Say something Asher.” Hannah spoke, her words cutting deep through my chest.

This is his why?

“My therapist.” I breathed out. “You are fucking my therapist Asher.” I yelled, shoving the phone into his hand.

Asher had an unbothered look on his face, he looked like he could be anywhere but not here, my eyes darted to my ring, I felt my fingers trembling when I pulled it out and I threw it toward the other side of the house.

“Hannah was there for me when-“

“I don’t want to hear it, you are a lying cheating bastard who cares for no one but himself, you watched me suffer for months while you were sleeping with her.”

“You left me no choice.” Asher yelled and a chuckle escaped my lips, I wiped my tears as it tainted my cheek, it was a waste of my time, I’m never going to stop crying.

I rushed out of the room, settled in my bedroom, our bedroom, filled with memories, he never wanted me to, he never cared, I should have listened to my brother.

I had my head rested on the couch, I didn’t dare lay on the bed, when I felt a throbbing sensation flowing through my head and by chest tightened even harder, I felt my eyes slipping into a darker state.

A soft chuckle filled my ears, one that caused my eyes to snap open, it wasn’t in my mind, it was real. The moment my eyes darted to my fingers, I realized my nightmare was real.

Asher is leaving me.

I took a step out of the room, the chuckle got louder until I got to the living room, to find my husband, Asher curled up beside my therapist Hannah.

They were deep in their moment. They didn’t even realize I was there, I felt my heart pounding through my chest, the pain I felt was nothing compared to what went through my mind.

Hannah’s eyes met mine and she froze, she quickly tapped my husband.

“What is going on Asher? Why is she here.” I asked

“Come on, don’t pretend like you don’t know what is happening? I’m done giving you your space, I want you to sign the papers.”

“And if I don’t.”

“Either way, this marriage is done and you are never wearing your ring again.”

Asher took a step toward me as my eyes remained on Hannah

“Come on Amelia , just sign them, you don’t always have to be dramatic and I told you, it’s possible Asher moved on, you never listened.” Hannah smiled.

“Shut the fuck up.” I yelled, my breath got uneven.

“Don’t speak to her in that way.” Asher yelled and my jaw tightened, the man I once loved, married, he is no longer in there, this is someone else.

He forced the paper into my hand and the pen on the other

I watched as Hannah stood up and I froze, her stomach was swollen, I imagined she was just adding weight underneath all the large gowns she wore recently.

“She is, but you.” I started to speak when I felt my head throbbing with pain. “You said you don’t want kids.”

“With you.” Asher smirked as Hannah moved closer to us and he placed a hand on her baby bump.

“Sign the papers and get the hell out of my house, I want my space with my new family.”
