Divorced My Husband, Married His Brother

**In the Norfield Packs** Charlotte Mateo, age 22, waited for her husband, the Alpha of the pack, to return home, but she hadn't seen him. She knew Teddy had been avoiding her lately, but being the Luna of the pack, she didn't want to leave him or end their loveless marriage. She was his wife for four years, and his father and hers were friends, as her father was the Beta of the pack. To seal their friendship, they had arranged for Teddy to marry her. Charlotte had just turned 18-years-old when she got betrothed to Teddy Hudson. Teddy was the second son of the Hudson family, and since his elder brother, Jack Hudson, had been abroad for years, showing no interest in ruling the Norfield Packs. Alpha Lucas Hudson decided to hand over the affairs of the pack to Teddy, hoping that Teddy would look after the pack and help protect them from the ongoing rogue attacks. Alpha Lucas Hudson was still alive; though aged, he had two sons and a daughter. His two sons were Jack and Teddy. Jack was the rightful heir to rule the Norfield Packs, but ever since he left the pack house when he turned 18-years-old a decade ago, Alpha Lucas felt it better to hand over the pack affairs to his second son, Teddy, who had been around. To transfer the pack affairs to Teddy, Alpha Lucas gave Charlotte Mateo to Teddy as his wife, to assist him in ruling the pack house, but Teddy didn't like Charlotte. Since the day Teddy and Charlotte got married four years ago, Teddy hadn't touched her, nor had he mated with her to seal their marriage. "Oh! For a week now, Alpha Teddy is not yet at home. Should I call his father and report him? What kind of husband is he?" Charlotte pondered. While she had been enduring Teddy's ruthless nature—he beat her at home, rejected her food, and avoided their master bedroom. Charlotte had been enduring it all because her father told her not to divorce Teddy. Charlotte had suffered facial scars that would later heal, but Teddy didn't like her. He mostly pretended in front of others that he was a sweet husband, especially during any of their pack functions. But once he came home, his animalistic nature took control of him. Tonight, Charlotte wore a pink nightdress. It was their marriage anniversary, and also her 22nd birthday night. She thought to look sweet for Teddy. Maybe, just maybe, he would finally touch her and consummate their marriage. Charlotte knew she was not Teddy's fated mate. Most she-wolves in the Packs found their mates when they turned 18, but Charlotte was now 22-years-old and hadn’t found her mate yet. She wasn't wolfless, and on the night she turned 18, four years ago, it was the same night her father gave her to Teddy as his wife. "Alpha, here is my daughter, Charlotte Matteo. I give her to your second son, Teddy Hudson, as his wife, mate, and the chosen Luna of the Norfield Packs," her father stated in front of the Alpha and his family. Charlotte loved Teddy; he was handsome, masculine, strong, and a skilled warrior of the Norfield Packs. Teddy had single-handedly defeated battalions of rogues that had attacked their packs four years ago, and up until today, Teddy remained a strong figure. Teddy was only 22-years-old then, four years ago, when his father gave Charlotte to him. "Charlotte, do you accept to marry Teddy Hudson as your husband and chosen mate? To love and cherish him, until death separates you both?" Charlotte remembered the night she was married off to Teddy Hudson. Teddy had an aloof expression; he wasn't pleased with her. Charlotte had a dark complexion, and that was something Teddy didn't like but kept silent about, as he wanted to take over the pack. Teddy did everything his father wanted him to do, so that he could take over the Norfield Packs. He had to suppress his irritation and accept Charlotte as his wife, though she was young and stared at him with admiration. Teddy could see that Charlotte wanted to marry him, but he already had a true mate, and he had to let his true mate go for Charlotte’s sake, and to secure the Alpha's position of the Norfield Packs. "Yes, Alpha. I accept to marry Teddy Hudson as my husband and chosen mate. To love and cherish him, until death do us part," Charlotte said to Alpha Lucas, who sat on the throne, and the whole family clapped happily for her, while Alpha Lucas turned to face Teddy. "Teddy, do you accept Charlotte Mateo as your chosen mate, the next Luna, and to assist you in ruling over the Norfield Packs in your elder brother's absence until he returns?" Alpha Lucas had asked, but Teddy replied, "Father, I will only accept Charlotte as my Luna on the condition that even when Jack returns, I will still be the Alpha of this pack." Alpha Lucas nodded and replied bitterly, "Yes, Teddy. You have my word; as long as you accept Charlotte and treat her right, you shall remain the ruling Alpha of the Norfield Packs from today henceforth. So do you accept to marry Charlotte?" With green, glowing eyes, Teddy replied, "Yes, I do." Charlotte wiped the tears away from her eyes after she remembered the night she was given to Teddy Hudson. Teddy was now 26-years-old, and Charlotte didn't know much about him. Teddy kept her in the dark about his business, hangouts, and friends. She was only his wife and the current Luna of the Norfield Packs by name. It worried Charlotte so much: would she continue to live in a loveless marriage? To brace herself, she remembered that Teddy had warned her not to contact him on the phone but to await his arrival. Charlotte decided to contact Teddy's Beta, Caleb Brown, to find out Teddy's whereabouts. It was Friday night, and Charlotte was worried sick as the time in the living room was past 11 p.m. "Hello, Caleb," Charlotte spoke in a nervous tone. "Good evening, Luna. Why are you calling me at this late hour? Do you want to implicate me and have me banished from our pack? You know how possessive Alpha Teddy is regarding you. Please refrain from calling me at this hour unless you want me to reject your calls and send them to voicemail," Caleb said, and Charlotte apologized to him. "Please, I'm sorry, Beta. It's just that Alpha Teddy hasn't returned home since last Monday when he left the house. Do you know his whereabouts?" The phone call went silent for a while, and Beta Caleb said, "Alpha Teddy will be home tonight. He went for a business meeting with the next pack, but he will be home tonight. Do take care, Luna." Charlotte sighed as the phone call ended. Just then, she heard the doorbell ring, and it skipped her mind that she heard the sound of a car arriving before. When Charlotte rushed to unlock the door, Teddy was back with a woman in his arms.
