Breakfast that morning was steak and it was just a moment before she was making her way downstairs amidst the gazes of his maids to the table.Logan, seated at the table, looked up at her taking in her immersed beauty, one that had deceived him on occasion, she was the two — a devil and an angel, and the thought of that alone left a strange feeling at the back of his mind.“You took a while." He muttered slowly.She ignores them and is going to sit when he grabs her. “, You'd listen to me and not ignore."It was the first time he had treated her that way and she could feel that burn from his hands when she sat back, she could still feel that best as she watched him.He turned away from her, too angry to look at where she was as both ate in silence.As she walked away from the table after breakfast her stomach churned as she walked back to her room to shy herself away for the rest of the day.‘Was this how her life is hinting to be from hence?’The question ran through her mind as she
Logan made his way away slowly, he could hear his heart rattling, his heart grieved at the thought that he felt sympathetic to this woman that had him like trash along with the rest of her fucked up Mafia family.If there was anything he had wanted all his life it was power and perhaps love, he thought that he had the two but both had nearly been stripped away from him, what more!All through the whole while all that filled his mind was a way to fix all of this, it was frustrating at some point but there wasn't much he could do either.Six… He had made it certain, that he was going to do what he hadn't done since he had been with her, and that was to go out publicly without a mask this time.He smirked at the thought that Don Moreno’ would be cringing In his grave at the sight of what was happening, but who to blame?He sat with a thud right there in his study, his attention turned to the safe which he opened and took out the case that had the flash.Seating back he watches the video
He was certainly the last person anyone was expecting to see at the party, as he made his way in all attention was turned to the woman right there with him to see who it was they were expecting to see at the moment who he was as they stood there still dressed in the party wear, the maid that got the door could hold her excitement. “Glad to see that you are here sir." She muttered before making way for them to walk in. He barely nodded his head in her direction turning his attention to her, he held the woman's hand tightly as they both walked in.Logan and Josie just arrived at the event, and it was more thrilling than what she had expected.As soon as she alighted from the car, they were met with a lot of paparazzi as everyone took a picture of them, he had a smirk on his face as he walked away-Soon the only noise that filled the room was that of her heavy heartbeat and that of the man who was with her coupled with the orchestra.“Can I go to the restroom?" She whispered.For the f
Logan had that bit of Unease seeing him there, he gave a scrolling look at the man who still looked at him with a smirk on his face. He was scum for lying to her and she despised him for it, but still, he was still family, and seeing him brought a kind of comfort, perhaps it would have been different if he had thought it all through before accepting the deal, but he didn't, instead he let herself be dragged Into all of Logan obvious game.Still, for her it was all about picking the lesser devil' and for her that was Andre, at least she knew him but on the other hand, with Logan, she knew what not to expect.“Why are you here,?" Logan questioned again. It was all they had agreed to, he was to make that signature and forget about everything but as it was, he was breaching the contract -A look of awe-filled his eyes as he watched the two hug, thinking to himself he saw her as a fucking hypocrite.She had looked the other day like she could not wait to walk away from all the situations
He stalled at the door looking at her. She stood there wondering what he wanted, Logan drunk wobbling his way into the room.“You shouldn't be -"“Shh-" he placed a finger on her lips and shut off anything she wanted to say, she could feel his heart rattle against his breastbone.“I can be anywhere I want."Logan stated that word firmly, and both stared at each other, with Josie feeling rather disrupted.Earlier Logan had felt frustrated about the entire situation, and as usual, there was only one way he could get rid of the stress, he had been right there at the study before making his way into her room.Now that he was in there he looked around again, there seemed to be a lot going on … He didn't know why her beauty looked so exceptional ever since they met months ago he had yet to touch her again, walking Closer, he thought of having a feel of her hair and she flinched.“You need to leave before you do something crazy." She walked out to the door and opened it.He stood there and
Josie followed the familiar clatter of pots and pans to the kitchen, she had woken up and wondered when Logan left.The thoughts were still running through her mind as she walked in, she entered the warm, friendly kitchen and immediately they stopped talkingShe felt uncomfortable that they had this fearful look on their faces, yes she loved to be respected but at what cost? She passed a smile on her face and tried to sound nice when she saw her she had snapped at right before then. “Hi, dear. I am sorry about yesterday.”The fact she apologized surprised most even the maid she had spoken to who was pulling a cake out of the oven and answered over her shoulder. “I am fine, I knew you were In a bad mood-”Josie sighed. She wanted to ask if any of them had seen him that morning. Yes, Logan. She had thought to herself about why he had slept in the previous night, she must have slept in since it was around two minutes to nine the morning when she finally got to drag herself out, and th
Logan stood right there while watching all she said, it was confusing to him at that moment he thought throughout the entire incident that looked to be happening at that moment, if any thoughts ran through his mind, much as he was feeling Confused he didn't dispute what was being said.He sat right there still staring at her watching as she said that word again that ran through the back of her mind “Where did you get the pen?" She asked.Logan still at that spot wondered what the situation was about, she had come in there for a different reason but why was she talking about the pen?Josie stared at the pen, while still letting herself understand the situation, several thoughts ran through her mind.Logan remembers that he had been worried about the pen, and if she was saying that she knew how it got to be in that space, it had to be because she must have seen it somewhere else as well.For Josie, there were two thoughts she kept to herself, two thoughts that had to do with the pen
It had been days since the incident with the maid, Logan was starting to suspect something was going seriously wrong at the residence why else would Amber of all the maids have been the one to be poisoned?First was the mystery pen, now this … At this point, he was starting to tell himself that something was seriously wrong, but what was it?That morning he had awoken with a start, he had been heavy with thoughts the previous night and the same had happened when he woke up this morning, he had done so blinking in confusion at the sunlight that bathed his bed. How else could he fix the puzzle? With all the thoughts still heavy at the back of his mind, he did what was ingrained in him forever, with that various thoughts going through his mind then decided that he should take a walk.It had been like forever since he last did that, at that moment he walked out to the terrace since it was only a short distance from the main house. Before him was the vast wood that he learned wound in
