Wooing My Ex-wife Again Novel by Natalie Winter

Chapter 7



Julian

I was seated in the meeting hall with the rest of the alphas for the monthly meeting. Me and Anastasia had started this tradition to strengthen our bonds with other packs..

Frankly, always thought it was my charm and strategies that were making it happen. But things started to change after she

leh.

My gaze flicked to the wide open door and then at my Beta, Victor,

“The meeting time was 8.30 pm. It’s almost 10 pm now. Where are they?

Victor shuffled in his seat restlessly.

“I checked with betas of all the attending packs, most gave me reasons such as the alpha had some emergency, a rogue attack occurred, or something similar.”

1 rammed my fist on the table.

“How many emergencies and rogue attacks are they having for the past few months? Why do these rogues never attack us.”

Victor shrugged. “I guess they know better than to mess with us. We are still the strongest pack.”

I call your bluff

Michael, my gamma muttered as he entered the meeting hall through the open door.

“I visited a few packs that claimed to have a rogue attack. They were all happily getting ready to bed. No rogue for miles together.”

Michael took off his jacket and threw it on the chair beside me as he grabbed a seat,

“So, if they did not want to come to the meeting, they could have said that directly

Michael answered. “They have said a lot many things directly to you. You don’t listen to them and they have sensed that arguing with you is futile.”

“Don’t cross your limits, Michael” I growled but it had no effect on him. He shot up from his seat and placed both his hands

on the table

“You damn well know the reason why they are behaving like this. Your fated mate, Angelica is nothing but a joke. Even after all these years, she does not understand pack dynamics or how to keep everyone together. Everybody avoids you because they cannot stand her.”

“Just because you have a mouth does not mean you can talk rubbish” I got up to match his stare.

“Calm down you too” Victor stepped in and pushed us back in our seats.

Victor and Michael were my beta and gamma but they were more like brothers to me. They were the ones who helped me when everything went downhill after Anastasia left me alone.

“I am sorry, Alpha Julian Michael said after Victor thrust a bottle into each of our hands.

I took a few sips to calm my nerves. The alphas had started to take me lightly after they realized I was not able to fully

handle everything. Their attendance slowly dwindled over time, fewer and fewer people were eager to do business with my once flourishing pack, for the same pack which they would use to take appointments to meet me once in advance.

And now, today was the day not one of thems showed up for the meeting. Ours was the largest pack territory wise so they could not outright mock me, but 1 had begun to see the signs early enough.

“Just mind your tongue when talking about me and my personal life” I spat, raking a hand through my hair.

I still recalled that fateful day when I thought I had everything in control, when I thought I had sorted it out with Anastasia and Angelica.

Thad never rejected her, I had never shoved her away yet she disappeared without a trace five years ago.

I spent months searching for her through the entire werewolf territory, almost ready to declare war on whoever was hiding

her from me.

But she was just nowhere to be found. At first, I assumed she fled with the money stashed in our treasury along with the gold.

But she had not taken a thing. Even her old clothes, Jewelry, etc everything was as it was,

She had just left without a trace as if she had disappeared into thin air. Her credit cards, mobile number, everything was either not in use or left untouched.

I had no idea where to find her.

“If you don’t want to hear the truth then don’t come asking us for help when we become the laughing stock in our community. Your chosen mate abandoned you instead of you rejecting her and you were not able to find her in these five years. She was the one who got all the alphas to vote in favor of several treaties and work together”

Michael started again.

“I was the one to do it, damn it. Not her alone?

Michael shrugged, “Yeah we can see how that is going”

I simply got up from my seat and angrily walked away while Victor gave Michael a piece of his mind. “That is no way to talk to h

him, can you not see how stressed he is? Victor asked Michael who shot back.

“I am only saying the things he needs to hear because nobody else dares to open his mouth. The only way to fix this mess is finding Anastasia and winning the trust of all the packs or we are doomed.”

I did not bother hearing the rest of their conversation. My head was spinning already.

I turned the coffee machine on as my phone beeped. I did not bother looking through the notifications as I was already pissed with the no show of alphas today.

I walked into the packhouse kitchen to make some coffee. Not one day had gone by since Anastasia left me and I did not

think of her.

And the mention of Anastasia just made all the buried emotions rise up to the surface. I still remembered her face, the way she smiled, and the way she brought happiness into my life.

The day she left, she took away all my happiness with her. I had worked so hard for the betterment of the pack but all they cared about how Anastasia used to do everything

And she had moved on so easily? Not a single phone call, or an email to check on me, on the pack she loved like her family. The only thing I received two days after her disappearance were divorce papers signed from her side.

We werewolves lived by different rules than humans but I recalled how she had wanted closure and asked me for a divorce if a formal werewolf rejection was not possible since she was my chosen mate.

The human laws were pine complicated and followed an imnecessarily long process but what my advisor told me made my head yun

She had requested an uncontested divorce if I did not respond within a month. And she had managed to evade me for six. years. In human low, she had gotten her close and moved on

Ver why shida bother me so inch

Iwas the alpha for Goddess’s sake

My phone beeped again and I angrily grabbed it in order to silence it but the notification that popped up on the screen almost made me question my sanity.

There was a confirmation email from some app about a successful order placed for my home as a delivery location.

And the dress was a strapless red gown with a thigh highs slit and low neckline. But that was not the most confusing part. It was an unknown number that had placed that order. And I knew that size and height. It was not Angelica’s dress at all. My curiosity morphed into anger as I quickly dialed the number but some kid began to yell at me.

Had she moved on already and started a new family? I was going to find out who that than was who dared touch her and Twist his neck with my bare hands.

I was so pissed that I blurted out the moment she received it.

“Who are you wearing that sexy red dress for?”
