Chasing His Kickass Luna Back by Jane Above Story

#Chapter 1 – Brand New Life
Abby

“If you want to meet with the Alpha, you’ll have to book ahead of time. And he’s booked out for three

months.”

The cool words of Karl’s secretary run through my mind for the millionth time. I tried reminding her he’s

also my husband, but it didn’t matter.

He’s been so busy with work that I haven’t spoken to him in a month. But it’s finally Christmas and all

the Alphas are expected to be home celebrating with their families.

I stop in front of the mirror one last time, just to make sure everything’s perfect. I run my fingers through

my silky black hair, marveling at the new color. He loves black hair, so I decided to surprise him. I’m

wearing a red lingerie set I bought especially for tonight and red lipstick to match.

I feel Karl’s presence, and turn to look at him, a wide smile already on my face. I have to resist the urge

to run across the room and jump into his arms.

His expression is unreadable. His brown eyes meet mine, but there’s none of the usual warmth when

he looks at me.

“What’s wrong?” I ask, taking a step forward. His eyes sweep over me, but he doesn’t comment on

what I’m wearing, or my hair.

“Abby.” His voice is harsh, and I shrink back a little.

“Let’s get a divorce.”
