CHAPTER 8

Adena was curious about what she had seen last night. Why was Logan behaving the way he did? What kind of nightmare could have possibly made him twist and turn on the bed like that?

She didn't care about him or his troubles, she hated him. But she really wanted to know what was happening. Adena has always been a curious right from childhood and it had gotten her into trouble several times.

"Adena, I brought your food" Liliana entered Adena's room carrying a bowl of hot soup. Adena gagged when she smelt the concoction.

"What is that? I'm not eating that" she folded her arms and pouted. Liliana smiled and dropped the bowl beside the bed. She sat next to Adena and gently inspected the wounds on her back.

"Ouch, that hurts!" Adena exclamation when Liliana touched her wound.

"Oh, sorry dear. But how do you expect the wounds to heal without the proper medication?" Liliana asked but Adena scoffed.

"Heal? What's the point? Logan is going to go ahead and inflict more wounds anyway

    "What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that you haven't found out anything about who tried to burn my warehouse?!" Logan barked at the petite man standing before him. The detective shivered, his shirt was already drenched in his own sweat. Fear had overwhelmed him because he knew what Logan was capable of doing if he didn't get what he wanted."Mr Stoll, we are trying our best, but we haven't found anything. But the new security system has been installed and if the perpetrator strikes again, we'll catch him red-handed" the detective said, as calm as he could. Logan turned to him, flashing a deadly look at the detective, who immediately looked away."You better find him, or you'll pay for his crime" he said."Rest assured, we will find whoever it is, sir" the detective answered boldly and Logan dismissed him.He was furious. It's been days now and the fool who dared to intrude into his warehouse has not been found. He was restless because somebody was planning evil against

"You know, he wasn't always this cruel. Back when we were kids, he used to be such a sweet boy, but I don't know what made him to change.." Antoinette said."Still doesn't give him the right to treat anyone the way he does" Adena maintained."You're right.. it doesn't".

    Adena was lying on her bed, thinking about the recent events. She was lost in thoughts when her rickety wooden door burst open, revealing Buster. The door had been worn out because of being severally kicked open by Logan's men."Get up and come with me, master needs you" Buster's shrill voice echoed in the room. Adena was not shocked, Logan always takes out his frustration on her. He uses her to subdue his anger and release his urges. She hated him for it, she despises him.She reluctantly stood up and followed Buster to Logan's bedroom, where he was already waiting for her with his black towel tied around his waist.His manhood was already shooting out, Adena was terrified at the sight of it. Shivers ran down her spine when she thought about the pains ahead."What are you waiting for slave? Do I need to remind you every time?" Logan queried, lifting his blood shot eyes to stare at her. She looked away immediately, his stares pierced her. Adena got rid of her clothes and went to li

    Adena wasn't expecting Logan to call for her so soon after what happened between them the previous night. But he did, it was a cold and windy night, and he needed her to subdue his urges.Adena reluctantly entered his room and found him by the glass window, looking down at the city. She fumed with hatred, wishing she could strangle the beast.Knowing there wasn't much she could do, she started to undress. She was almost naked when Logan groaned loudly and held his head in his palms. Adena was shocked. She watched as he staggered to his bed and continued to grown in pains.. it looked intense."Goddamit! Don't just stand there, open the damned cupboard and get my medicine case!!" Logan shrieked.Adena had two choices, leave him to suffer and die, or help him with his medicine so that he can maltreat her all over again. The choice was very clear, but she couldn't do it. She bit her lip in spite as her conscience kept pushing her to help the very same man she hated with passion. Her leg

    Tyson paced to and fro in his large living room, he still hadn't gotten what he wanted. Logan was still at the top and burning his warehouse barely made a dent in his fortune. Tyson wanted nothing but to completely ruin Logan, even though he knew he had a thin chance.Logan had the full backup of the government, and all the armed forces, it is very difficult to trap him. But Tyson didn't mind trying. Logan's father had taken everything away from his own father. He struggled to become who he was today, promising to get back at Logan."You" he pointed to the bodyguard standing by the front door. The smartly dressed bodyguard walked over to him and gave a little bow."Tell your captain, to prepare to break into Logan's mansion tonight. I want his property destroyed and burnt. I'll kill Logan by myself" he grinned."But sir, Logan's security is tight" the guard protested. Tyson grabbed his collar."I don't care, just clear out the perimeter and I'll take it from there" he said through gri

    "Oh my God! You have absolutely no idea how long I've been waiting to hear those words from you Adena. Thank you so much! You don't know how happy you've made me" Logan exclaimed, and just like a child, he rested his head on her chest again, and she cuddled him."I've been keeping it in for a long time. It feels good to finally let it out" she sighed."I promise, I won't let you regret loving me. I'll make up for everything I did to you and.."Adena had to interrupt him."You don't have to make up for anything. I've forgotten about all that, at least I'm ready to forget. Let's just focus on what's ahead and let go of the past. The past should not determine our future" she stated, caressing his thick hair."I'm the luckiest man alive aren't I? You're such a blessing. I love you Adena" he said and a tear dropped from her eye."I love you too Logan. I really do" she said and it was music to his ears. He could listen to her say those three magical words to her all day long and never get

    Seven Months Later…."Here is your soup, hot and spicy, just the way you like it" Antoinette giggled, dropping the tray in front of Adena. "Stop it. You know I hate this soup" she whined, squeezing her face. The aroma from the soup always made her feel like throwing up. It had a lot of herbs in it and Liliana insisted that she must take it every morning.Adena was close to labour, it's her ninth month and she could start getting contractions any minute. Since she was still very young, Liliana prepared some local herbs to help her, not forgetting frequent hospital check ups."Drink up and stop complaining. You know it's for your own good" Antoinette said, flipping back her hair."Is she being stubborn again?" Logan came out from the bathroom, wrapped in his robe."Yes. She won't take the soup" Antoinette answered and Adena glared at her."No worries, I'll make her take it. You can go ahead and do other things" he said and Antoinette nodded before sticking her tongue out at Adena and

    "What?""Yes Adena. I am in love with you.. there, I said it" Logan fell back into the chair and breathed out loudly. Adena stared at him, awestruck. She never expected him to be in love with her, she thought he was only being nice because of the baby in her womb, little did she know that he had such feelings for her."Look, I know you're surprised. I honestly don't expect you to say anything to me right now. It's fine. I know you hate me, it's fine too. I just wanted you to know how I feel about you" Logan said, hurt by his own words.. she hates him."I.. I don't hate you" Adena mumbled."You treated me really badly, but it's not your fault. It's mine. I have only known pain ever since I was born" she paused, glanced at him and sniffed back the tears that were threatening to fall."My parents died in an accident after my birth. We were on our way back home from the hospital when the accident happened, I miraculously survived. Then, my uncle took me in, and maltreated me before selli

    "Hi Tyson!!" Antoinette squealed on seeing Tyson. She gave him a little hug and returned to stand next to Adena."You're back? I did not expect to see you back so soon" she continued."My sister is getting married in a few weeks. I had to come back" Tyson answered, but his eyes were on Adena. Antoinette noticed this and became worried. Telling him about the pregnancy would be the best option, because if he found out in a bad way, it'll mean the worst. He might turn against Logan again."Adena, you've got to tell him" she whispered. Adena sighed and signalled her to keep quiet."Is there a problem? You two are acting weird. Aren't you happy to see me?" Tyson asked."No there's no problem. Um.. I have to talk to you about something" Adena said, scratching her arm. "What is that?" He asked.She bit her lip and wondered what his reaction would be. It's only right for her to tell him. She didn't want him to waste his time loving her, when she can never belong to him. She's having a child

    "So what are you going to name the baby when it's born?" Antoinette asked, expertly cutting onions into a pot of soup."Really? The pregnancy is barely two months old and you're talking about a name?" Adena questioned, watching her cut the onions."Oh please! If it's a boy, we'll call him Jasper" Antoinette beamed, ignoring what Adena had said earlier."Seriously? Why Jasper?" Adena asked."Because I've always wanted a baby brother, called Jasper" she giggled."And if it's a girl?" Adena was curious."Then we'll call her Lena.. Logan plus Adena makes Lena!" Antoinette shrieked and Adena couldn't help but laugh."Sounds nice though. Let's wait until it's born" she stated and Antoinette nodded."I'm going to get some sleep. I'll check on you later" she said, walking out of the kitchen."You're always sleeping. Lazy pregnant woman" Antoinette stuck out her tongue and Adena giggled before leaving for her room."Lena.." Adena repeated, laying on the bed. She touched her tummy and closed he

    Logan felt a tap on his arm and that woke him from his sleep. He sat up and rubbed his eyes sleepily."Logan.." Adena's voice rang out in the dark night. She stared at him, pouting."What's the matter? Is everything okay?" Logan asked, looking at her with worry. She sighed and nodded."Yes I'm fine. I just.. um.." she bit her lip and sighed."What is it? Tell me" Logan urged."I want mango" she spoke."Mango?" He raised his brow."Yes, unripe mango. I'm seriously craving one right now" she sighed and slumped into the bed."Are you serious?" Logan asked, confused."Where on earth am I going to find unripe mangoes by this time of the night?" He asked, still in awe."It's mango season! Mangoes are everywhere" Adena scoffed."But it's two in the morning" Logan argued. Adena pouted."It's okay then, forget about it" she said and covered herself with the blanket. She was angry and disappointed. She had been craving mangoes all night and didn't know how to tell Logan about it."Are you upset

    Logan sat next to Adena in the lobby, where they were waiting for Damon. She turned to him and noticed how pale he looked. She felt bad that he had to risk his mental and emotional health in order to bring her to the hospital. "Are you okay?" She asked. He turned to her and nodded. He shifted his gaze to the glass window, it was still raining, but it wasn't so heavy anymore. "You didn't have to get in the rain because of me" she added, folding her arms across her chest."What should have I done? I had no idea what was wrong with you so I had to bring you here, to make sure you're alright" he explained and she looked away. She didn't like what her heart was doing. It was pulling her to the same man that tortured her.Adena tried to resist, she really tried."Thank you" she murmured and he chuckled at her childish behavior."It's alright, don't thank me. I'm just glad you're fine" he said and she sighed."You should change into some warm clothes, it's cold" she pointed out. Logan look

    "Be mine".Adena stared at him endlessly, surprised by the words that just came out of him.He just asked her to be his! She didn't know what to answer to that. What about Tyson? He told her that he'd be back for her. She didn't want to break his heart, for a man that tortured her."I.. I.. um" she stuttered, freeing herself from his strong grip. "We should get going. To the mall" she said and left for the car. Logan sighed and went after her. He promised to do everything he could, to prove to her that he had changed, that he loved her. He knew it wasn't going to be easy, since Adena was just as stubborn as him, but he wasn't going to give up. For once in his life, he would do something, for the sake of love."Ready?" He asked, igniting the car. Adena nodded and they drove off to the mall.Logan was ready to pay for anything that Adena chose and she managed to pick out quite a lot of things. It was her first time there, and the excitement was too much.After shopping, they went to

    "Good morning my lady" Adena opened her eyes only to see two servants standing at the foot of her bed, each holding a tray filled with different lotions, perfumes and what looked like clothes.She was surprised because that has never happened before. She wondered what they wanted."Good morning" she rubbed her eyes and sat up on the bed, still covered with a blanket."My lady, it's time for your bath" one of them, the blonde one said. She looked around the room and back at the servants. Were they referring to her? As 'my lady?' "Why?" She asked."Master ordered us to" the dark haired one replied with a smile.Adena was surprised. Why would Logan ask them to give her a bath? What's the special treatment all about?"Um.. okay then" she answered and reluctantly got out of the bed.The ladies led her into the bathroom where they had already run a warm bath. She got rid of her clothes and climbed into the bathtub. The ladies poured in some of the scented oils into the water, and some mi
