Wooing My Ex-wife Again Novel by Natalie Winter

Anastasia

Julian’s face was hovering above mine. Those deep blue eyes that would stir something within me every time I looked into them were staring at me.

He held my gaze for a while before it dipped to my slightly parted lips..

Those were the lips that had kissed every inch of my body and soul. But those were the same lips. that had kissed Angelica too.

The photos of them having sex popped up in my head and I blinked furiously, pushing him away

from me.

I could not love this man. Not again.

Julian was startled and his head almost bumped into the car’s window. I too sat back in my seat and stared straight ahead, not wanting to look into those eyes again.

I was flustered and annoyed by that memory.

What is wrong? I thought…we were…

Julian began but I said in an icy tone.

“We were going to your mom’s so that is what we are going to do. If you try to do anything else, I will step outside and leave.”

Julian raised an eyebrow, “On the street? There is no cab or bus here.”

I turned to glare at him and the hint of a smile that had appeared on his face disappeared.

“Sorry,” He mumbled and began driving again. “But that little accident was not my doing. I really did not see the car coming.”

I did not reply and continued to look outside the window, trying to erase that image from my mind.

We passed by that little cafe and Julian asked, “Do you want to eat something? They added a few more items to their menu last time I checked.”

I let out an irritated sigh. “I said we have to go to your place, no stops or breaks.”

Julian nodded meekly and began driving but soon the car seemed to wobble and then it came to a standstill.

“Now what?” 1 bristled in my seat as he got down from the car and mumbled, “I will go check”

I sat in the car for a minute as he checked and came back to the window, to knock on it.

I rolled it down as he muttered, “We have a flat tire and the engine is too hot. It needs to cool down a bit while I change the tire.”

I groaned and checked the watch. It was already an hour since I left home. I had wanted to be back. in two hours but I had not even reached his place or met his mom yet.

Julian rolled up his sleeves and opened the car’s front as hot steam rose up and blasted his face. He coughed and looked away as I got out of the car wondering what to do.

He went back to the car’s boot to pull out the spare tire and other items while I leaned back on the car’s door.

“It looks like the Goddess wants you to have some fries and cupcakes. The cafe is just behind you.”

Julian spoke while he dragged the stuff to the front of the car. I looked back. The car was really just outside the cafe.

“This better be a coincidence” I muttered as he gave me a small smile and got to work. I looked at the small cafe. They had changed the interiors a bit and added some fluffy cushioned chairs and loads of small twinkling lights.

The sun was setting and the small cafe at the roadside looked cute and stood out among the bushes

and trees.

An old lady came outside to see who had stopped outside the cafe and then peered at me.

“Oh my Goddess, is it you Anastasia?” She asked and I blinked.

“Mrs. Smith?”

She nodded and I smiled at her. “It has been so long since I saw you. Did you find a better place to eat, girl?”

She asked, placing her hands on her hips.

Mrs. Smith used to be a middle–aged woman who loved to feed people until they wanted to roll down on the floor. Though now I could see a few gray hair and wrinkles on her forehead.

Five years had aged her a lot.

“No, Mrs. Smith. Our car broke down.” I answered and her gaze went to Julian who was changing The tire.

“I was about to ask where the handsome boy was.” She smiled and came forward as Julian looked up

and waved at her.

“Hey, Mrs. Smith”

She slapped his shoulder a bit too hard and he almost lost his balance and narrowly avoided getting his head hit on the bonnet.

“Why is it that you both show up after so long? Were you busy creating your personal football team?”

Julian looked at her in confusion. “Huh?”

However, this time when he took his hand off, black soot was smudged on his forehead and cheek.

I tried not to chuckle as he rubbed his forehead.

He deserved it.

“What huh? Where are your kids? I want to meet them.”

Julian’s gaze flicked to mine and I pretended to not hear her question.

“We…I…. it is just the two of us.”

She stared at us in shock. “No way. I remember how you both could not keep your hands off of each other and I had to ask you both to behave.”

I turned around as my cheeks turned red in embarrassment.

I could still recall that day as if it had only been yesterday. Julian and I were heading home after some meeting ended and I was feeling extremely angry.

Some Alpha I did not remember the name of had loudly mocked Julian saying that he leaned on his wife too much, making the others chuckle.

I had gotten up from my seat and given him a nasty glare. “No, alpha Julian knows who to listen to and whose words to ignore, regardless of the person’s gender.”

My father tried to appease the situation and asked me to calm down. But I mumbled, “as he is doing right now” before I got in my seat.

him.

My father shook his head and somehow appeased the situation but I was still angry even after the

meeting was over.

Julian was driving and stopped the car right in the middle of the road, “You know what? Food should distract you. Let’s go to that cafe. come.”

1 objected but he dragged me to the cafe and ordered some ice cream and sandwiches for us. A light drizzle started outside and he scooped some of the cream up on his index finger and placed it on my cheek.

I blinked.

“What are you doing?”

“Eating” He answered and his tongue flicked out to lick the cream off my cheek..

I tried not to shudder at that sudden intimacy as he licked the cream off his finger and mumbled, “You know what, I like it this way”

I gave him a shocked look as he scooped up the cream again but this time put it on the base of my Deck.

“Julian!!” I struggled to speak as his mouth came down on my skin and he gently sucked at it.

I pushed him away as he smirked. “What has gotten into you?” I asked, reaching for a tissue and trying to look appalled.

“We have too many eyes here” He mumbled and then reached for a tissue to scribble something on it, slipped it to me, and then got up from his seat.

I opened it to see, “Meet me down the stairs”

I shook my head. Alpha Julian sometimes behaved like a love struck teenager.

I got up from my seat and went to look for him but was pulled to the side and my body was slammed on the wall as hot lips captured mine.

I did not have time to even respond as Julian’s mouth claimed mine while one of his hands went around my waist, pushing me onto him.

A moan escaped my lips as he roamed his hands all over me and I began to melt as his tongue forked out to battle mine.

I whimpered as he whispered, “Damn, I cannot get enough of you, Ana.”

His hand went to my breast, and he gave it a squeeze but then we heard someone clearing their throats loudly.

“Will you two behave?”

Julian sprang apart from me and I adjusted my dress and hair as we saw Mrs. Smith staring at us though there was a cheeky smile on her face.

Julian slipped away and I pretended to have to pee and went inside the washroom.

“I hope you both have learned to behave” Mrs. Smith’s voice dragged me out of my thoughts and brought me back to the present.
