Looking back at the sequence of events that had led up to this moment, Logan was left in absolute awe at the entire situation—

In his mind, all of these still seemed like a dream sort of. First, he took in view of the entire building that was nothing like what he had thought it was.

For one, It was far-off too elegant, and captivating enough that he felt breathless pondering all about it.

“I’d go get the bags." It took Butler speaking to get him back to himself, as it was at that moment he was left dazed.

In a way, he found himself reminiscing on the past, as for the next few seconds that followed he sensed the need to ruminate on the entire situation—

There’s time to relive the memories of them and enjoy the thrill it left in his soul as he shuts down the dark thoughts of anxiety and doubts as he makes steps- stopping just short of the glass wall that overlooks the city.

“What am I doing here?” he whispers to himself.

He stares at the surrounding building that stands out broad an

    Logan took a deep breath and then looked around the office again, was all of this going to be his? he just couldn't believe his ears and eyes. He would have jumped up for joy if he was alone in the office but he had company so he wanted to behave himself. Still, that didn't stop the feeling of excitement coming from within. "Logan" The butler called to get his attention and he turned to him, the look of excitement varnished and was replaced with seriousness. "I promise that I will take revenge on the Richmonds" Logan assured him and the butler smiled. "I will take your word then but before we make plans on revenge, we need to get you a new place to live," The butler said "A new place? I have a home" Logan was confused "You don't expect to still stay in the old house when you just found out who you are, you need power and so you need a house that would speak power," He said "And how?" "You ask too many questions, Logan, I have it all covered. Here is the key to your new home" Lo

    The phone buzzed and at first, the Butler eyed the number not feeling that bit of urge, calling it a feeling of uncertainty or perhaps seeing it was a strange number he hesitated two more times and only picked on the third ring. “Hello?" His voice had that bit of edge to it, gentle yet carrying the heavy weight of anxiety.“It is the driver." A trembling voice came from the other end." The driver?” He was a bit puzzled. " What is wrong… You sound a bit tense." He muttered.There was a bit of silence from the other end almost as if he was hesitating to speak.”" It is the young boss, he is … He is lost." He stammers.“Lost?" It was hard for him to process as he couldn't bring himself to believe the manner of scandal the matter could create, at the same time he was weighing the matter deep at the back of his mind, how was that possible?What could have gone wrong?The eerily silence persisted for over thirty-one seconds and was filled with nothing but his silent heartbeats.Each thud

    Taking a calming breath, Logan tried to figure out everything that was happening, at that moment it seemed to him confusing.He stared blankly at the young woman again with members of his memories rekindling every ticking seconds.Yes, he did know the woman— but as he’d just witnessed, he was not in control of the situation at the moment and silence at that moment most definitely was golden judging by everything that was happening.One must say that he was strong, dominant, and whatever made a man but at this moment he didn't have most of the thinking in his mind as he was being calculative about everything.When he finally spoke his voice was subtle, calm like a silenced wind. “I didn't do anything, Yes I must have been with her but I can't remember details about it cause… Cause I was drunk.” He hadn’t raised his voice at all, but his message had been as clear — he wasn't going to take the blame for something he did when drunk!No one would!“That is not my fucking question, answer

    Some facts are just too hard to consider and that was exactly the State of Logan at that minute when the reality of everything was dawning deep in him as it was he kept his face void of any expression as what he felt just definitely at that moment was a shock— It was just too hard to take in, as whatever this is was slowly becoming a torn part from his reality.“Wait what?" The word left his lips shredding the temporary cocoon of silence that had once enveloped him.“How is that possible, I barely know you… I '' At that moment more words fell out of his lips as he was totally confused about what to say to do at that moment.He could argue with himself countlessly but it was the factual truth, all of this wouldn't be happening if he hadn't just gotten himself too drunk.Well, that was in the past as it was, he had to fix whatever this was … Only if they would just grant him one phone call!“I don't know what all this is about, but I can't …" It was the only words he could utter befor

    Logan had viewed life from a whole different perspective, and as it was it felt like no one wanted to see through its lenses, he was still trying to understand something and that was what she was doing that moment.With adrenaline racing in his heart, Logan still with his decision uncertain- thought about the situation at hand, it seemed more like he was out of choices judging by the circumstances of things around him — He stopped thinking for a minute, this time he allowed himself to be drawn into the moment. “I can't do this." He stated firmly.As he did, he stood up and pushed the chair behind looking furious -“This is madness, I can't let you all impose this on me.” He spoke glamorously. Looking around he could feel the heavy gazes on him, but still, he was filled with so much rage than he could get rid of. As he stood right there in the Middle of the room, the moment seemed to him as though moving in a somewhat slow motion, as he could feel himself reliving the situation ove

    She had been left frustrated about everything that had happened most especially having to put up with the acts of recent acts. She had to— she had seen the way he looked at her like she was the worst being he ever saw and very much wanted to change that reputation but how?It occurred to her that she had wronged the Carp family once and doing that again was the last thing on Josie's mind.“You are doing well, love." She flinched when she heard the voice … looking back she saw her grandfather walking toward her.Josie sighs. “Don't you think I am doing too much of this?” She questioned.He could sense her frustration but knew definitely she had to keep up with that act -“What are you saying, don't you think of going easy on him, do you want to seem like a weakling?" He hollered.A feeling of anxiety crept through the room, and she could feel her heartburn from it.“I just feel,” she sighed." You feel that my dear is a flaw, that is why he ridiculed you the first time and I won't let

    Josie turned around quickly tracing the sound to a room where an expensive antique lay shattered on the floor.Logan stood a few feet away, his face pale and his hands trembling slightly. He glanced up at Josie and she could read the guilt in his eyes which infuriated him more."I'm so sorry, Josie," Logan began, his voice barely a whisper. "I didn't mean to—""How could you?" Josie cut him off. "Do you have any idea what you've done?"Logan swallowed hard, his gaze dropping to the fragments of the vase scattered across the floor. "It was an accident. I swear, I didn't do it on purpose. I just tripped, and—""Accidents," Josie interrupted, her voice rising. "It's always an accident with you. Every time you come near something important, you destroy it."Logan flinched at her words, the hurt evident on his face. "I know it looks bad, but I didn't do it intentionally. I care about you and your family. I would never want to hurt you like this."Josie shook her head. "But you have, Logan.

    Logan stared at her for a while. He didn't know what to expect but she seemed shy and he wanted to make her comfortable."Please come to Anna," he said, trying to keep his voice steady.“Hi,” she said softly, offering a tentative smile. “I hope I’m not interrupting.”“No, not at all,” Logan replied, trying to hide his frustration. “What brings you here, Anna?”Anna fidgeted with her hands, clearly uneasy. “I wanted to apologize,” she began, glancing around the room as if searching for the right words. “For how Josie acted. She’s my best friend, and I know she can be... intense sometimes.”Logan blinked in surprise. An apology for Josie’s behavior? After everything that had just happened? “What do you mean?” he asked, unsure of where this conversation was heading.Anna sighed and took a step closer. “I know she was upset about the vase, but it wasn’t fair for her to lash out at you like that. I just... I wanted to come and say sorry on her behalf.”Logan felt a deep pang in his chest.

    After Andre was shot by Logan and he picked jersey up hurrying out of the hallway to get help from his men, things happen so fast after that.Just like he predicted, Andre's men scattered the moment they found that their leader was gone, not even bothering to put off a fight since in their words… ‘it was not worth it’. Instead of feeling relieved and satisfied that he got the upper hand, Logan sent some of his men after them to make sure that every member of Andrews team was nullified.Thankfully, Jackson was on standby to oversee the rest of the operations because Logan didn't even bother waiting back, jumping into the ambulance to take Josie to the hospital.Calling for reinforcements on his way there, Logan kept hoping that they weren't too late.Already, Josie's pallor was ashy and her breathing was slow.Even her hands seemed cold and clammy, although the latter part might just be his hand.Immediately, they got to the ER, Logan took over, commanding the nurses to get a doctor do

    Logan's heart dropped to his stomach as he stared at Josie in surprise, wondering what the hell she was doing back here.She must have known he'd feel the same way because her eyes flicked up to his and she mouthed the words ‘I'm sorry’.“Looks like I didn't have to go so far to cause you anguish, Logan.” Andre laughed. “She came straight to me.”Logan took a step towards them. “Hey, look Andre. You don't have to do this, she's innocent in all of this!”“How so? Don't talk to me like I'm an illiterate, I know she's behind all of the plannings you've taken recently… so maybe she wasn't part of this before but you certainly knew how to welcome her into the lifestyle.” Andre chuckled, twisting his gun around so it was pointed directly at her heart.In all of Logan's years dealing with enemies, territory fighting and impeachment from subordinates, he never was once a scared as he was right now.It was now he knew what it meant to have your weaknesses directed at you.

    Waving his gun in front of Logan's face, Andre smirked, cocking his head to the side. “Well, well, well… What's going to be a lover boy? Are you going to shoot first or should I?”Logan didn't even flinch at the empty threats. “If you wanted me dead, you could have done so the moment my team walked in through the front door of the building.”Andre clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth. “That's true but you getting shot randomly by one of my men wasn't the plan. It would only rob me of the joy I would get from shooting you in the face by myself and taking the crown while the blood leached out of your body.”Logan chuckled softly which then grew into full-blown laughter, only serving to irritate Andre.“What the hell is so funny, huh?’ Andre grunted, taking a step closer.Logan ignored him, laughing on for as long as he wanted, only slowing the sound down to a trickle a couple of minutes later. “I'm just amused…” “I didn't realize that my words were that funny.” he huffed

Ethan smiled."Home," Ethan whispered.Logan's team gathered around Ethan in a secure facility. Ethan's eyes scanned the room nervously. Logan's expression softened."Tell us, Ethan," Logan encouraged. Ethan took a deep breath."Eclipse wanted Dad's research," Ethan began."Research on what?" Rachel asked. Ethan hesitated."Artificial intelligence," Ethan revealed."AI?" Jackson repeated. Ethan nodded."Dad's AI project. Code-named 'Erebus'." Sophia's eyes narrowed."Erebus?" Sophia repeated. Ethan's voice dropped."Dad's creation. A powerful AI.Capable of global control." Logan's eyes widened."That's why Andre

"Rachel, take point. Jackson, you're with me. We'll breach from the east wing."Rachel nodded, her piercing green eyes scanning the blueprint. "I've hacked the security feeds. We've got a 30-second window before they realize we're in."Jackson checked his gear, his rugged features set with determination. "I'm ready to take out their comms."Logan's gaze locked onto the mission objective, his jaw clenched. "Josie's being held in the central cell block. We need to move fast." The team nodded, their faces set with resolve, their breathing steady. They moved out, their footsteps silent as they approached the heavily fortified facility. Rachel took point, her pistol leading the way, her movements fluid."Security team incoming," she whisper

    Logan's team had been searching for Amber for weeks, and finally, they had her in custody. The dimly lit interrogation room was eerily silent, the only sound coming from the hum of the fluorescent lights above. Amber sat calmly, her hands cuffed to the metal table. Her eyes locked onto Logan, who stood at the far end of the room, arms crossed."You're a hard woman to find, Amber," Logan said, his deep voice firm.Amber smirked. "You're not the first to underestimate me, Logan."Logan's team leader, Rachel, stepped forward. "Let's get down to business. We know you're involved with Andre's operation. Tell us what you know."Amber leaned back, a calculated glint in her eye. "I'll tell you everything, but first, I want immunity."Logan raised an eyebrow. "You think you're in a position to negotiate?"Amber's smile widened. "I have information you desperately need. Josie's location, for starters." Rachel's eyes snapped to Logan, who nodded curtly."Deal," Rachel said. "But if you're lying,

    Logan ran his hands all over her body, brushing away her hair so he could clearly scrutinize every bruise or cuts the marred her perfect face. “Are you sure you're okay?”She nods, smiling. “Yes. Even though for a mom and dad feared that I might not make it out alive but…you made hold on a little while longer.”Logan nods, a picture of happiness and contentment on the outside but on the inside, he was actually boiling, livid that he wasn't able to get to her in time before that animal, Andre put his hands on her. *It's okay, you're safe now and I promise you that Andre's not going to hurt you anymore.” He promises, looking into her eyes.Her smile never wavered, even though it got a little shaky at the mention of Andre's name. “I really don't care. I'm safe and I'm here with you, that's all that matters.”Logan kept talking to her, making sure to avoid asking her what went down during her kidnapping, trying to reassure her as best as he could.A couple of minutes later, he could see Ja

    Josie was working on her laptop when she got a text. It was from Amber and the tone of the text screamed urgency.Amber: Josie, please where are you? I need your help!Spooked by the weird way Amber was trying to text her, Josie reached for her phone and tried to call Amber.Unfortunately it wasn't going through and that only made Josie more worried, so she texted back.Josie: Where are you? What's going on?Almost immediately, a response dropped but it wasn't the type that she was looking for.It was a pin to her location with the words ‘hurry’ in capital letters next to it.Josie debated on reaching out for help or talking to Logan about it but she decided that it to be too late to help if the matter really was as urgent as Amber was making it out to be, plus the location she dropped was less than 30 minutes away.If she drives straight there and right back, she would be back before Logan was aware.With that decision made, Josie slammed her laptop closed, reaching for her jacket,

    “Start talking and maybe I'll not start slicing off your flesh,” Logan ordered, his patience wearing thin.There's no way he'll allow Andre to get his way, even if it means giving up everything he's worked so hard for.He didn't know when it happened, but Josie was like a nasty bug, one that gets under your skin whether you want it to or not.Amber wets her lips, darting her eyes towards Jackson's figure. For some reason, she seems to be more scared of Jackson than the man who's sliced into her skin like a piece of meat.Logan snapped his fingers to gain her attention. “I was asking you a question! What do you know about Josie's kidnapping and Andre's plans all along?”Logan made sure to waggle the tip of the bloody life in front of her face. Once her eyes landed on it, she went pale swallowing up spit. “Okay, okay! I'll tell you what I know!”Logan sat back, waving his hands. “Start talking.”“Um…” she smacked her lips. “Can I get a glass of water, please?” Jackson grunted and she qui
