Chapter: Chapter Eighteen I couldn't get the picture of a man grabbing Lilly out of my head. I was furious and thought about going back to that club to find the piece of shit. I kept reminding myself that I didn’t even know his name. Lilly looked so fragile when she walked out of that night club. The bruise on her arm tore at my insides, I should’ve been there. I tried to let it go and reply back to her message. Lilly, I will try my hardest to be good. I know I am still your boss so I have to maintain that professional relationship. Logan P.S. You keep starting things but will you ever finish them? Let’s see what she has to say about that. I waited about an hour and never received a reply, maybe she fell asleep. I started thinking about having to leave next weekend for Brazil. The thought of going back to that hell hole made my stomach turn. I knew I had to be careful this time, I had too much to lose. Lilly and I had something going between us, I didn’t want anything to mess it up. I knew we needed

Chapter: Chapter Seventeen“I’m sorry Lilly I called Logan from your phone because I knew we needed a ride home and I was worried about you” Lisa said sadly. “It’s OK Lisa I thought about calling him myself” I said honestly. I smiled at Logan thinking how sweet it was that he came to help us. “Lilly tell me who hurt you please, I will take care of it immediately” Logan stated furiously. “I’m fine, I took care of it myself” I said. I wasn’t going to tell him how my arm was already hurting. Logan walked up to me and looked so angry I wanted to slink away. His gaze softened and in a sweet voice he said, “Are you sure you’re ok because that bruise has the shape of fingerprints.” “Yes Logan I’m fine, I’m a little tipsy but other than that I’m good. Can you please take us to my apartment?” I asked. I didn’t know if I should even tell Logan what happened, I would decide laterWhen we arrived at the apartment building, I gave Lisa the key to let herself in. She waved goodbye to Logan and told him thank you. “It’

Chapter: Chapter SixteenLisa and I walked down to the nightclub, we could see the neon lights flashing from a block away. When we got in, we went straight to the bar and ordered our drinks. We decided to sit down at a table to talk and enjoy ourselves. A tall, almost God-like man came and asked Lisa if she wanted to dance. I looked at her and smiled real big. Lisa eagerly accepted the man’s request. I watched Lisa have the time of her life with this handsome man. I decided to check my messages and saw one from Logan. Lilly I really need to talk to you, I need to know you are OK. Please answer me. L.M. So he’s back to the nice and sweet Logan I can see. I decided to ignore his message for now. I went to get another drink while Lisa was dancing. A went to walk back to my table and a tall blonde guy with creepy looking eyes stopped me. “Hey sexy, would you like to dance with me?” he asked. I looked around for Lisa and she seemed so happy I didn’t want to ruin it for her. I decided to dance with

Chapter: Chapter Fifteen The next morning I woke up bright and early so I could get everything ready for the trip home. I finally decided to read the message I had received last night. This only further confused me, does he think it’s ok to be ice cold one minute then try to apologize the next? I really could use a strong drink and it's not even noon yet. I met Logan in the lobby before the car arrived to take us to the airport. Logan of course looked great but I didn’t let it affect me. Logan walked up to me and asked, “Do you want anything to eat before leaving?”“No I’m fine, thank you though” I responded politely. I wasn’t going to let him see my anger or how upset I was with him. I refuse to let him get the best of me. He shrugged and we headed out to the car. I didn’t say anything to him on the way to the airport. I was looking out of the window but I wasn’t really looking at anything. My mind wouldn’t stop running long enough for me to concentrate on anything. I wanted to tell Logan that he hurt me by

Chapter: Chapter Fourteen Logan had been in there with that creepy guy for at least twenty minutes. I couldn’t really hear much because their voices were too low. I did hear that Logan had to go help this Armond guy next week. I don’t know what kind of business Armond does but it doesn’t seem like Logan was thrilled to see him. I know he made me feel uneasy and my gut feeling never lies to me. I was looking out the window when I heard Logan open the door. I turned to look at him and he had that beautiful smile that made me melt. “I take it you caught up with your friend” I asked. “Unfortunately yes, I haven’t seen Armond for a while. He just needs some help at his office next week so I’ll be gone for a few days” Logan stated. “I hope he didn’t scare you too much by just showing up like that.”“Well it was kind of weird that he was sitting in your room, but no I’m fine” I lied. I looked out of the window at the beautiful night life of Seattle. I could see the busy streets and people walking by. I noticed Loga

Chapter: Chapter Thirteen I was frozen for a split second until Armond commented about Lilly. I felt the anger start in my chest and go up my face. “What the fuck are you doing here Armond?” I growled. “Why so angry McAlister”, Armond said laughing. “I wanted to check on you since you never responded to me.”“I’ve been rather busy lately” I stated angrily. I looked at Lilly and could see the confusion and fear in her eyes. I felt a stab in my heart when I saw her face. “Lilly, this is an old friend of mine, his name is Armond” I said casually. “Would you mind going into the bedroom so I can catch up with him for a few minutes?” I asked. Lilly nodded and walked to the bedroom and shut the door behind her. I don’t know how I’m going to explain this to her but I would come up with something. I turned back to Armond and asked, “OK you’re here, so what do you want?”Armond gave a dark sinister smile and said, “Well you know we have a shipment coming in one week and you have yet to reply back on if you would be i
