I sensed that Ethan shook his head.

“Logan could have told you, but he was protecting you way too much. Little did he know that you are slimier and more devilish than he would ever have imagined,” Ethan said.

I expected to feel venom in his words, or scorn and anger and vengeance in his voice, but all I felt was an unexpected calmness.

Something tells me that he is not exactly calm instead. Why should he? He is practically standing in front of the woman that plotted and killed his best friend and boss.

Well, maybe this is the calm before the storm, which I am fully ready for now, only that I would rather he did not do anything violent in the home or even around the home that took a total stranger like me in without questions and showed me nothing but love and hospitality.

Ethan cleared his throat, but he still did not move an inch. “Well, I will tell you what Logan failed to,” he said and paused.

I have no idea if he expected any response from me, and I have been through so much to ev

    As I got ready for school that morning and headed to the bus stop, I had no fucking idea that my life was about to get this shitty.When the black luxury van had swerved past me, I had shrugged it off to the mere careless driving but here I was in a locked dark room, no idea of how I got here, my head banging terribly and some really huge men standing before me. I made to stand and felt a sharp pain, I was cuffed.Shit."What am I doing here?, Who are you guys!?"My voice broke at each stop. They made a jeering sneer at me and laughed out loudly.I felt pain as one of them grabbed my chin so hard and pulled me forward."You better learn how to lower your voice here girl. If you weren't the boss special order, we wouldn't mind having you "I was mad at this point and I did what next came to my mind. I spitted out my saliva on him and before I could think of what was about to happen, he slapped me..so hard I felt my eyes spin. My blurry eyes saw his hand coming up again and I tried scu

    "There's a tracker, Don't think of running away either. I will find you with or without the phone babygirl"I wiped out the tear that had found it's down to my face. This man was inhumane. Wedding?.... wedding?How can you kill a man and decide to wed his only sister against her wish.The slight bang on the door announced he had left the room. I tried breathing and it still was hard. Sulking in a deep breath, I climbed off the bed. If I couldn't run away from him, I might as well end the whole drama. My room was at the far end of the hallway, it took a whole lot of tiptoeing to come down the wooden coloured stairs. My heart was right at my throat as I moved. I could get killed at this junction and unapologetically.As I stood, just below the stairs, my eyes frantically searched for the kitchen, looking behind me, the way was right under the stairs, Quickly with the help of the dim light from outside, I sought out for a knife and there it was, snatching it from the knife holder, I th

    The paparazzi was wild.When our convoy stopped at a gradual speed at the entrance of the red carpet, at first I didn't understand why we had to wait in but when I looked out and saw the bodyguards stopping the paparazzi from crossing the red carpet belts, I grew some goosebumps."Who is your lady for the night?""Is Miss Victoria or D'Angelo first daughter with you Logan?"And they went on and on, screaming as much as they could. I glanced up to Logan. He was all so relaxed and scrolling through his phone. I drew in a breath, we were about to go live. I used to sit in front of the TV in the small apartment I and my brother stayed in and watched him. All these moments. From driving into the venue as dramatic as he always did to stepping out and giving his signature smile and the pictures they took of him, it always had me blushing all through and through but here I am sitting with him and about to go live."You ready?"I turned to him. Well, I was expecting him to just go down and w

    “You do not get to treat me like a piece of shit, Logan! I am not that kind of girl, and I will not allow it.”Logan ignored me completely, but I was so mad at him that I continued to stomp right after him. “Who the fuck do you think you are, Logan? Doing whatever the hell you feel like doing without considering the feelings of others! You are a callous man!Logan entered his room and I followed him in. One thing you don’t do to me is ignore me like I am some irrelevant bag of thrash.No one has ever made me feel the way Logan does; emotionally, and it is always so intense that it makes me want to burst. And even though a small part of me was still afraid of him, daring him just seems like fun, but so far he has maintained a calm demeanor, which infuriates me even more.“You have a big mouth, Alice,” Logan finally said as he poured some Vodka into his glass. “You should learn to control it.”I drew closer to him. “No, you should learn the proper way to treat a lady!

    Leah knocked at my door, and when she saw that I did not respond, she opened it and entered. I have been in my room since the last episode with Logan, and as usual, I have not set eyes on him ever since, not like I minded though. I don’t think I am ready to see him any time soon.“You have been rejecting meals served to you, Alice.” Leah scolded. I hate that she sounds like that, as though she was referring to a teenager.“I did not reject meals,” I grumbled reply. I wanted her to leave me the hell alone so I could have my privacy to myself, but it seems that I will always have the D’Nores in my hair. “What do you want?”Leah ignored my question. “You have not been eating, can you explain why that is?”“Nothing.”Leah laughed. The kind of laughter that could drive one up the wall.“You should stop rejecting meals and eat. You don’t want to look like a hungry bride on her wedding day.”All my senses shot up with that information.A wedding! A wedding!“What?” Leah stared at me, “surely

    Riley and Emma met at a coffee café to get a cup of coffee. Riley saw Emma coming and scoffed. “She is always overdressed. It’s just coffee for fuck’s sake!” Riley thought jealously. Emma was a screen goddess, and she always dressed the part. She even worked for some modeling agencies before she ventured into acting fully. At first, they were enemies, especially after Logan dated Riley and dumped her for Emma, but they became allies after both got dumped.“It’s so hot in here,” Emma said she moment her butt touched her seat.Riley could not wait to get the meeting over and done with, and she particularly chose that coffee café out of town so that hungry papparazi’s would not see them and take pictures. She was sure the headlines would be screaming about them;“Logan D’Nores’s surly ex-girlfriends spotted having coffee together.”“Popular Actresses, Riley and Emma who got dumped by superstar Logan meet up to lick their sore wounds.”“Are the ex-girlfriends of D’Nores now besties?”“W

    By the end of the day, I felt sick. My eyes hurt from looking at different brands and colors of clothes, accessories, bras, bikinis, lingeries, G-string pants, colognes, hair dyes, jewelries, nail polishes…just name it.I am sure there were a thousand of brand owners at Logan’s extravagant living room when Leah had come into my room to drag me down. Apparently, Logan had told her that he did not want me hopping from one boutique or fashion store to another.I was at the brink of fainting from trying out dresses upon dresses when Leah asked for a break when her phone rang. I could not have been happier!Phew! Does the lady ever get tired? Well, I am sure Leah is already accustomed to this kind of lifestyle. I walked into the kitchen to grab a bottle of milk so that I could at least, balance the micro organisms running furiously in my head from too much stress.Beside school and hanging out with a few friends and Samuel, I have never experienced anything else and I must admit that this

    Indeed, the farmer’s wife was right about their daughter; she is a chatty and vibrant teenager who unbelievably knew so much about the world even though they lived far away into the bush. I have spent a couple of months there now, and each time, my heart ached for what could have been; the love and happiness the farmer and his family shared were rare.I have never met a family so contented and at peace with their environment, and to think that his wife gave up her job in the city just to move down to his ranch.It even came as a shock to me when their teenage daughter spoke so fondly about Logan D’Nores, and to prove her point, she has magazines of him in her bedside drawer, and her most desired dream would be to see him someday and tell him how much of a fan she was.“She buys magazines that carry his pictures any time we go to town,” the farmer had said so one evening over dinner when she would not stop talking about the famous Logan D’Nores.Apparently, she is not conversant with

    Logan’s POVI woke up feeling like shit.“Took way longer than I expected,” Ethan said.I recognized his voice immediately, and I turned to him. “Ethan,” I muttered.“Do you feel any better?” Ethan asked.“No, but I would like to have a mirror. I know I look a mess already,” I said and ground my teeth.“There is no way I am letting you get close to a mirror right now until you are completely on your feet,” Ethan said.“Aside feeling like shit, I don’t feel much pains,” I said as I stretched my body on the bed. “The doctor has confirmed that you will be fine. There are no broken bones, and that is why you are not wrapped up in bandages,” Ethan said, chuckling.I groaned. “I detest bandages.” I said, and then looked at Ethan worriedly, “Where is Leah?” I asked.“Relax, man, she only went to her room to get a nap. She has been up by your side ever since the accident, and she hasn’t slept a wink.I had to literally force her to go and rest her head. You gave us all a scare, Logan,” Ethan

    When I woke up, it was at around 4am. The pain had stopped, as well as the dull headache. There was a dim light glowing from the bedside lamp, but it was just enough to illuminate the room.I could still hear the chirping of the birds, which reminds me again of Logan and his multimillion naira mansion.Then I jerked up!My baby! I touched my stomach, and my heart started to race really fast.I am no longer in pains, and the bleeding has obviously stopped, and I really slept for hours; I am not sure I have slept this long since I was a child, and now, I have been sleeping uninterruptedly for hours since I met this stranger who is being extremely nice to me for no reason.What have they done to my baby?! I wanted to wail and scream, but it is still dark outside, and I am yet to fully understand my new environment.Silly me, I should have thought and made adequate plans on my own before running away just like that. Now what if I have landed myself in the hands of an evil man and his fami

    I ran as fast as I could without stopping. My heart was pounding really fast. “I have killed Logan. I have killed Logan. I have killed Logan,” my heart continued to remind me. Fortunately for me, I did not have to run long enough before I heard the sound of a moving train.There was a stop just ahead, and I added extra speed just to meet up so that the train would not leave me. I got there just in time.The train had just finished taking in its passengers after others got out of the train, and I jumped in as well, looking like a lunatic.I could not get a seat, and worse, I did not even know the destination of the train, but I did not mind. I head onto the pole to steady my quivering feet and my breath.“Hey, are you okay?” I heard someone ask.I turned and saw that it was an average looking man. He looked like a merchant to me, or possibly a hunter with his cowboy hat and boots. Without meaning to, tears gathered in my eyes instantly. He immediately noticed this and got up.“Please

    Kozlova texted me the moment I woke up that it is time, and I needed to act fast or else he would take a different action that I would not exactly like, then he went on to send me the details of it.We already had the plan on ground, all I needed to do was get Logan D’Nores to the location for execution.I waited for Logan with bated breath, and when he eventually entered the room carrying a tray of food by himself, guilt nabbed at my heart.He has practically been babysitting me since the accident, and paying him this way is not exactly right, but there is nothing I can do.The nausea and dizziness have reduced, but I sense Logan looking at me in a way that is sort of suspicious.I know the doctor did not divulge the secret of the pregnancy to him, so why would he be staring at me in a weird sort of way? Does he suspect anything? Is it so obvious that I am pregnant? According to the doctor, the pregnancy is just a month and a week old, which means it definitely cannot be so obvious.

    “We need to talk, man,” Ethan said the moment he entered the room about an hour later. Alice is still sleeping peacefully, and Leah has since gone to change and freshen up. Before I left Alice’s side, I made sure she was breathing fine.“We will not spend more than five minutes,” I said as I stood up and followed Ethan to the study.He nodded in agreement. Somehow, he and Leah have decided to be very co-operative this period, which is very sensitive of them.“What have you found?” I asked him. “It is Kozlova general, is it not?”Just then, Leah entered.I wanted to question her as to why she is present. Usually, I do not approve of Leah being present or involved in my businesses.I prefer to keep her protected, and completely out of the way, as it has always been, except of course, it is unavoidably urgent. But right now, I decided to just let her be.If she wants to be here to know what happened, then she can, and it is also because of the genuine concern she showed to Alice earlier

    Logan’s POVAlice got discharged from the hospital three days later. According to the doctor, she was really fortunate not to have sustained any severe injuries, and the few bruises would not cause a scar.She still looked sick to me, and her cheeks are swollen now, but I am just glad that the accident did not take her life.I have ordered Ethan to make sure he gets me the person responsible for it, and even if it is the last thing I spend my life doing, I will.I had wanted her transferred to my hospital where my competent doctor would look after her, but eventually discovered that the small hospital she was rushed to was equally competent. Another advantage to it is that it would not get out to the press.The last thing I need right now is for fucking news to be flying about, about Alice’s near assassination.Of course, I suspect Kozlova general, he is the only enemy I know, but according to Ethan, we mustn’t jump into conclusions until he has made his findings.
