When Logan had heard the twig breaking he had wondered who it was, he was on alert he was thinking through the entire situation wondering what it was all about, he had turned to where the sound was coming from.

Still thinking about what to do about it, he looked around again hoping that he'd see who it was yet apparently no one came along, he continued running-

In a different part of the wood, the Sunburnt down on their skin, by then it had been twenty minutes since she had started running, maybe she should just head home at this moment, she thought to herself as she continued running -

She started by running down the garden, running through the tracks all through while listening to the music that was echoing from her earplugs.

They both took a path leading to similar junctions, both were oblivious about meeting with each other.

He could hear the footsteps now, this time they came through to him more heavily, she had stalled there for a minute while listening to those heavy footst

    Logan stands abruptly. " Amber. " The word echoed deep in his thoughts. He tries remembering what the question had been about why he would ask, as it was he was annoyed for many reasons. "Is there not anyone that you won't accuse me of?''His voice rang out through the room, which had a foul scent that looked to be rotten human flesh.With the words dangling deep in her heart, she was feeling rather confused. As he made his way to her, it was as though her name was calling out into the pitch darkness. He moved with grace, with every bit of the strength he had.Her questions were still left unanswered by the man, something about him made her wonder if he was guilty of the allegations that were levied against him or not, the look he had on his face was very confusing enough that she could sense that bit of uncertainty that filled the air-The look he gave made it look like he was guilty as accused, but what more was it about this man, that she couldn't figure out?Logan still was fin

    Sitting out under the shades Logan donned a dark shade bask under the sunlight, he had a lot going through his mind at that moment, as he was feeling rather disturbed about the entire situation.He sipped from his cup slowly with Charlie standing closer to where he was-“You mean she asked that?" His butler was still shocked at what he had said and was trying to understand the entire situation.“Yeah, I don't know why she would ask." “Well, she might have her reasons… You've been quite close to her." “That doesn't mean anything.” He still couldn't understand why she would ask him that question, if there was any reason why he treated her more nicely, it was because he thought he owed her his life for how she helped him the previous time back at the Capre apartment.What is this all about, his mind was slipping deeper every minute into that State of darkness that made the entire situation more critical than it should with the second ticking away Logan wondered to himself a better way

    Images blur in his mind as he stood by the window, it was Only the second time he had been in her room, and wasn't sexual.How it all happened again played at the back of his mind, he had thought it was best for him to have the conversation in her room.Logan gets a flashback —At first, Josie who was still acting all weird after the letter had thought it was much better he stayed away from her room.The two had gone all back and forth about the situation.“What are you hiding, after all, it is my house."Josie thought it through, if she didn't agree with whatever he was saying then most definitely it was easy for him to tell where that would end.At that moment, she had agreed for them to discuss it in her room away from prying ears.Was it a ploy for him to isolate her?“I just want to ask about the pen, you do know well that it is missing." He said through gritted teeth.“Are you saying I took it?"She had this sober look on her face, and reluctantly she started to cry-He rolled h

    Does she really have what it got to look him in the face and lie?It was all left to time that moment, she didn't know what more to do than just confide in him with the hope that it wouldn't end off blindly as it seems.All thoughts that filled her heart were making amends as it seemed obvious to her that he knew everything.“I know nothing about it, I just want you to know that this has nothing to do with me.” she had muttered.Still, Logan who was left astonished by that bit of Information she had given him stood there speechless.“Are you certain that you are telling the truth, I'd have to summon Charlie if you don't mind." He muttered slowly after a while.Josie thought about the situation again, though what she had said was a chunk of the truth … she didn't think by anyways it would affect anyone at least not the way she was thinking.“I have no problem with you calling anyone, just do your thing." She reassured him. “Really?" “Yes," Josie answeredIt was noon when Charlie wal

    “That is not the question I am thinking of hearing,” Logan said through gritted teeth as he watched her, she sat right there on the bed thinking through the entire situation once more wondering to herself if she had done the right thing telling him. He allowed the situation to be a bit calmer when he made his way out, not bringing up anything about the entire situation again. He thought it was best that he stayed all by himself and walked out of the room.With the need to clear his head, he had hit the streets. In the distance a cat sped away suspiciously out of sight, he thought about what could be happening, he was trying to understand why they were there.As the car drove out of sight and the dust settled down, he started to make his way to where it was. After some minutes, he ran through the entire conversation with Josie, he revised the conversation he had with her a few momentsRunning didn't calm him down, Since all he wanted was to burn the energy that was filling him up f

    It was all he could get out of his mouth before he felt that sharp pain blow to the side of his head, he had fallen to the ground at first and touched his head when he felt that bit of pain, dropping his hand, it was stained with blood.Now, Logan hadn't been in many fights all through his life. To make matters worse they were doubling up on him and the wisest thing for him to do would've been to just back off. Wincing in pain, he looked around and saw two more men, he grimaced as he tried to stand up from the floor while holding his bleeding head.“Well that serves you right, you deserve that!" The man had gritted through his teeth.He wondered who was to blame for the altercation, most definitely him… in a way all of this wouldn't have happened if he just stuck to himself and Stayed at home, as it was clear they didn't know who he was.He felt weak, but he managed to stand with his head throbbing hard. All through that he hadn't thought about the implications of what it was.He cou

    Back at the apartment, Josie was restless, she had gotten two distress calls from him, and reading through the entire situation it was safe to say that he was in trouble -Mere looking at the writing on the walls, the darkness hovering around the room seemed more evidence of the state she was in.After she had tried to reach him that third time and it proved abortive she had taken it upon herself to finish what all this was about. Josie nothing to herself that she required help swallowed the lump in her throat, as the situation was looking more severe to her than she had thought it would be, at the moment she had stopped pacing the room. There was a sudden realization of how much needed to be done to take away the feeling at that moment. The thought did cross her mind. She took one good look at the man who was standing not too far away and walked up to him. “He is yet to be back right, I have several missed calls from him and he is yet to pick up."Charlie had a different countenan

    Logan awoke In the morning to find himself alone in bed. He was home —somehow and he still had vivid images of what had happened the previous night, had it been a dream?He looked around and could see the bandages, and stained clothes, he could find the dent in the pillow and the covers rumpled confirming the previous night hadn’t been a dream.He had been attacked, and slowly- hit surely he was starting to get those pictures back again, it was starting to refill his mind leaving its mark on everything he had touched.Despite the fact there was no love between them, he had seen the way Josie had been worried, as last night despite all odds for the first time in weeks the two had forged a connection to show that they belonged to each other.Still, amidst all of this, he also was unaccountably miffed by the fact that those people whoever they were had the guts to actually beat him up.Who were they?Who did they work for?Those questions had crept through his mind as he thought about t

    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."

"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
