Logan walks further into her room. He had been passing by the corridor when he heard someone crying out in pain even though the cries were not loud.

"Josie, are you okay?" He asked but there were no replies from her.

He walked towards her bed and saw that her eyes were closed. He wanted to leave, thinking that she was probably asleep. But his eyes caught the medicine container by her bedside. He picked it up and read the description. It was only then he realized something was wrong with her.

"Josie, wake up," he called out but still no reply from Josie.

He grabbed her hands and tried to shake them realizing her body temperature was too high. At this point, he knew something was wrong with her. He ran out of the room, trying to get some help. As he kept running, he eventually bumped into Andre, Josie's cousin.

"What the hell? Can you watch where you're going?" Andre spat angrily.

"I'm sorry. I was only running so I could get help," Logan replied.

Andre looked at him with a confu

    Logan immediately bent down to pick it up before slowly turning around to face Andre. His heart began to beat really fast, knowing that he had been caught. "I asked you a question. What the hell is going on here?" Andre asked again. "Nothing is going on here. How is Josie doing? What did the doctor find out?" Logan asked but Andre ignored her. "Was that a phone that fell from you? What are you doing with the phone?" he asked. "A phone? What phone are you talking about?" Logan asked. He knew it was a stupid question to ask but went ahead to ask it anyway. "I am not dumb or stupid or blind. I saw a phone fall from your hand when I walked out here and it seemed like you were on a call. Who were you speaking with?" Andre asked. "Yes, you saw me with the phone but I was not speaking to anyone," Logan replied, hoping that Andre would believe his lie. "You're trying to tell me that you are in possession of a phone and you did not try to call anyone you know," Andre said. "Believe it

    Confused Logan stared straight at the man who had just spoken, his jaw dropped astonishingly as he looked Andre in the eyes.“What?" He sounded quite astounded at the entire moment." Why would you say such a thing?”Though furious, he knew that she couldn't possibly let out his anger if there was anything he had to do, it was most definitely to act like it was alright at least till this storm passed away, as it was difficult for him to do anything at that moment even as much as think.“I am sure of what I am saying, I am certain that you did all of this and please don't even try to hide it." It was Andre speaking again.Logan was still startled, he was caught in that bit of blankness — That oblivion, he could feel that fire in his soul as he was trying to find out what could have prompted the entire allegations.Well, there was nothing else to be amused of, as all that had happened here since his abduction had been sheer … How much time left?Leaning deeper into the dark thoughts of h

    "I heard about what happened to you. Who could have tried to poison you?" Angelo asked as he approached the bed, where Josie sat. "I don't know but I will find out soon. Anyways, I'm much better than I was before," Josie replied. Unable to take the insult, Logan got up and walked over to a corner of the room. He watched Angelo and Josie talk and laugh and it made his blood boil. Why would she laugh so hard at a joke that wasn't even funny? He thought angrily. When he could no longer take it, he stepped out of the room and waited outside in the corridor. His anger was beginning to go overboard and he did not want to react in a negative way so he began to pace up and down, hoping that pacing would somehow give him some comfort and relief. But who was he kidding? Another man was in the same room with his wife and they were talking and laughing out loudly. The more he thought about it, the more it made him even angrier. He decided to go back into the room. "After all I am her husband.

    Everywhere was quiet and all Logan could hear was the sound of footsteps approaching where he had hidden. I need to leave here before I get caught, he thought to himself. Meanwhile, Andre, who had asked who was there earlier, walked over to where the sound came from to see who was there. Just as he peeked to see who had been eavesdropping on his conversation, he saw the back view of Logan running away. An angry expression appeared on his face when he realized what had happened. Did he hear anything? He wondered as he watched Logan flee. "Should we go after him?" One of the guards who were with him asked. "Oh no, that would not be necessary," Andre replied. "Are you sure, Master?" The other guard asked. "Of course I'm sure, it's not time yet," Andre replied, a sinister look appearing on his face. "Let's get back to our conversation, gentleman," Andre said as he turned back to the people he had been conversing with earlier.****All that running Logan did got him panting by the ti

    Logan smirked as he realized how eager Josie and Andre were to find out his condition. He leaned on the door frame as he relished the moment. "Well, well, well, I can see that the both of you are so eager to know what it is and you know what? It gives me so much joy seeing you both in this position," he said. His words made the duo really upset. Andre immediately grabbed him by the collar and said, "Stop messing with us, loser. Let us know your condition now or I wouldn't hesitate to leave some bullets in your body. I wouldn't mind going to prison for a few days for that.""You know you wouldn't dare," Logan said confidently.Josie sighed in frustration before speaking,"Logan, can you just tell us your condition or at least, tell us what we need to do to make you get the news out of the internet."Logan looked at her and saw the anticipation in her eyes, despite her anger. He looked back at Andre and his face mirrored the same expression on Josie's face. "Seeing as the both of yo

    Three weeks ago… “ARE you sure this is going to work?"Andre had one thing in mind when he had spoken to his cousin that evening, so far everything was working according to his perception, he had just one thumb in mind at that moment and that was doing all he could to get Don Moreno out of the picture.“Yes, all you have to do is stay in your room and the rest is done trust me there is nothing that could go wrong -"He was about to speak when there was a loud bang on the door, both turned their attention to a painting man that walked in.“Fire, there is fire -"“Fire? Get to your room, Josie… Our plan is intact."Andre hurries out.Flashback ends… It was the last time she had seen him, at the moment while she relived the Moment relishing the past a lot of thought came to her mind.Through the thoughts, one stood paramount and that was the length she was willing to go, she wanted just one thing, and that most definitely was Power. She was intoxicated by her hunger for it enough that

    Logan was still trying to get himself through the disrupts that echoed through his mind, it had been twenty minutes since he had arrived and it was enough time to look around the vicinity for the person he sought-He didn't find anyone seated out right where the anonymous number had told him he'd be, or was he somewhere different?He was trying to play through all this thought when the bartender passed a paper to him that he unrolled, a smaller device fell to the ground and picked up the contents of the floor slowly making a way out with a bar that had the shape of a memory card compressed to it, at the moment all that ran through his mind was the fact that all of what he had been searching for was about to be found.He knew where he was going, so he turned left making his way toward the hallway that led away to the restroom, some part of him dreaded taking the device home and getting it in the wrong hands. If there was anything that he could make out of the situation bar that Minute

    While still trying to understand the situation, Logan's gaze at the strange man was intense enough that he could see the dark feeling it triggered In his chest. The fact the man stood next to him made it very complicated for him as he couldn't think of any twist that would've prompted the entire incident.He had one question at the tip of his lips and it wasn't just a matter of moments before the words were bursting out.“Who the hell are you!" “Good evening, I'd be your new guard, more like a bodyguard." "Bodyguard?”The word seemed surprising to him enough that he gave me a stone look, he turned away to leave and at first, the man who towered over him tried to follow him.“You don't need to,” Logan stated firmly. “Tell me who put you up to this?"He sounded serious with the question. The last thing he wanted to do was get into an argument not after the long day he had or the shock he was putting up with.“ Josie Capre. " The man stated.Feeling inexplicably uncomfortable with the

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.

    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
