2024-10-29 19:42:56Michael POV
As I walk to my office, my new secretary walks to me, passing some files to my hand. I take a deep breath, and I let my mind goes blank.
“Good morning Mr Lockwood” - she says
“I told you to call me Michael, Sarah”, - I reply, and she nods her head as we keep walking into my office.
Sarah closes the door behind her while I take my place behind my desk, taking my jacket off.
There’s already some coffee waiting for me, but I smile internally, looking and the travel mug with coffee that Logan got ready for me.
“So what do we have today?” - I ask while Sarah sits in front of me with her iPad going through the agenda for today.
“Board meeting at eleven with Mr Lockwood present”, - she says, and I pass my hands through my hair. Great, just great. That’s all I need, dad coming to interfere with business.
“What else?” - I ask.
“Lunch at your fa

Logan POV I’ve been sitting in the car for about twenty minutes. I don’t know what I am waiting for, but I honestly know that sitting in the car won’t get me anywhere. So why am I acting like a scared teenage girl? All I have to do is go inside, come up with some lame-ass excuse to get Beth out of her class and talk to her. I take a deep breath, and I open the car door. There’s a group of teenage girls near their cars, and I can see them checking me out. I hate teenagers. They only get us in trouble, always with their make-up and a fake ID. I close the car door, and I start walking into the big building in front of me. This is some rich school; I’ve always attended public schools, and trust me, they don’t look like this. This looks like a freaking castle. I wonder how much it costs a month to run. Why do I think about that? Get a grip and get the girl Logan.
The Angelic CEO chapter 16 - Michael and Beth
Michael POV Daniel keeps pushing my buttons, and I am not pleased about this. “I said no” - I let out, and Daniel looks at me. Dad crosses his arms in front of his chest and takes a deep breath. “But you will be family”, - Daniel says “That’s still to be seen”, - I say between greeted teeth. “What did you say, boy?” - Daniel asks, and I shake my head. My phone starts to vibrate in my pocket, and I pick it up. It's Logan, but I can’t answer right now. This asshole thinks he can manipulate every single aspect of my life, and I am getting tired of it. I reject the call and focus my attention back on Daniel that is looking at me as if I was the enemy. “Daniel, your nephew won’t work here, he will never work here, he will never have access to my business”, - I say “Don’t be an overdramatic boy”, - Daniel says, taking one step closer to me “Drop it, Daniel, I haven’t worked my ass off to leave this company to
The Angelic CEO Chapter 17 - Getting ready
Elisabeth POV Michael pulls away from me, and I feel as if I can’t breathe; my body is taking for his, my lips want more of him, my skin needs his touch, but he pulled away. Of course, he pulled away. He is with Logan; I am just the beard for their relationship. I am just a contract. Michael pulls a small box from the pocket of his jacket, and my hands fly to my mouth, covering it. When I see the ring, my heart almost comes out through my mouth. It's simple, elegant, beautiful. It would be the king of the ring I would love to get when I am actually getting married. Now he’s ruined that for me. No other ring will ever be better than this one. “We can’t be engaged without a ring”, - he tells me, and he is right. Michael slides the ring on my finger, and it fits to perfection, as if it was made just for me. I grew up having all the jewellery I’ve ever wanted,
The Angelic CEO Chapter 18 - Meeting the parents
Michael POV “There’s a dress for you in the bedroom”, - I tell Elisabeth, and she walks to the bedroom to get dressed. As soon as she disappears into the corridor, Logan smiles at me. He knows we both think the same thing. “You like her, don’t you?” - Logan asks, and I am taken aback by his question; I start pacing around, not really looking at him. “I do, but so do you”, - I tell him, and he nods his head. “It is different with her than what it is with you. She is the fire I miss in my life,” - I say, and Logan smiles, kissing my lips while his hair falls down his face. “I’ve always had a crush on her, she’s always been intriguing to me, but the way you look at her made me want her even more”, - Logan tells me, and I nod my head in understanding. “That night at the club” - I start - “I would’ve taken her home and made love to her without thinking about consequences, and
The Angelic CEO Chapter 19 - Meeting the Lockwoods
Logan POV I have to admit that I am jealous. I am jealous that Mike can walk around hand in hand with Beth, and no one would judge him. I am jealous that he can introduce her to his family as his future wife, and I am just the best friend. I am jealous that he might fall for her and not be as interested in me. I know I sound ridiculous right now, but I can’t help but feel like I am losing Michael to the life he never wanted. The life of older men controlling his life. I feel a tear spill down my eye, and as fast as it fell, I clear it with the back of my hand. Get a grip Logan; Mike is yours, now and forever. I can’t be without him. He’s made my life so special, so colourful, so interesting. I can’t even imagine being without him by my side. Even if I have to be in the shadows, I’ll be in the shadows for as long as he needs me to. I turn the tv on, and I start watching some random stuff. I need to get distracted, and th
The Angelic CEO Chapter 20 - Meeting the Lockwood's part 2
Michael POV “You can organise what?” - I ask when I approach Elisabeth talking to my sister and River. I can see she feels a little uncomfortable, so I wrap my arm around her waist and pull her closer to me. The warmth from her body soothes my own, and I like how her body fits perfectly next to mine. Elisabeth relaxes against me, and I smile. I know I agreed not to touch her without Logan, but this is torture, and I have to sell the happy couple crap to my family. Otherwise, Mel and Gabe won’t buy it. “Your wedding”, - Mel says “How about you let my fiancé organise her dream wedding?” - I ask, looking at Elisabeth and giving her a small wink. Elisabeth smiles and goes all blushed. But, god, how is it possible that she is even cuter now? “Don’t you think you will have your hands full with mine?” - River asks, and Amelia squeals with happiness. “You’re letting me do it?” -
The Angelic CEO Chapter 21 - Confrontation
Michael POV “Wait, what? What do you mean especially with a girl?” - Mel asks looking confused between the two of us. I look down at my hands fiddling with my fingers messing with the skin near my nails. I always do this when I am anxious. “Stop that” - Mel says slapping my hand. I lift my eyes and meet hers and I can see so much love in them that I move my eyes fast from hers and I meet Gabe’s. He looks cold and distant. This is what I didn’t want to witness. That look. That’s what I was always afraid of. His disapproval. I always seemed for his approval I always looked up to him. The perfect son, the perfect boy with the spitting image of dad. The boy that takes over his father. “I… I am” - I start saying “Gay” - Gabe says crossing his leg to his knee and looking deeply at me. I feel as if he is trying to read my soul and I move uncomfortably on my seat while Mel looks at me with her mouth open “Yes” - I say and I look at Gabe
The Angelic CEO Chapter 22 - Let's go
Elisabeth POV “I will be right back”, - Michael whispers in my ear, and then he softly kisses me on my cheek, sending a chill down my spine and making all the butterflies in my stomach wake up and come out to play. I offer him a small smile and focus my attention on River that is telling me how she met Gabe. They have been through a lot, and I am very impressed with her. She is very hardworking, and now that she is pregnant, Gabe is treating her even more like a Queen, not letting her move a finger. River is excited about the wedding that will be in a couple of months, and she says she really doesn’t care about the details; she just wants to be married to Gabe before their baby is born. I can’t help but wonder how my life would be if Michael had actually fallen for me and proposed for real. I’ve always dreamed about my wedding. Like every little girl, my dream dress would be princess style with a

The Angelic CEO Chapter 73 - The End
Michael POV Today I am meeting my son, I can’t believe this is actually happening. Elisabeth has been in bed rest for three months and now Elisabeth is being taken to the operating room where she will be having a c-section for the baby’s to be born. Elisabeth had a complication during the pregnancy as she developed diabetes and that put the baby’s at risk. Her food was monitored and she definitely wasn’t happy about it but she knew it was for the best for the twins. We are having a boy and a girl. We decided that the kids will know who their biological father is but we will make no distinctions between them. We love them both equally. “This way”, Logan says running down the corridor with me following him. Elisabeth has been in the hospital for the last two days and today is the day, thing is we were home when she started to go into labour.
The Angelic CEO Chapter 72 - Paternity results
Michael POV It’s been three days since the wedding and I couldn’t be happier, the press is making a spectacle out of everything, they are making me look like a dick, being with Beth and Logan, luckily a lot of people support me and them. It’s not the end of the world to love two people unconditionally, I am just lucky that I have found two people to love instead of just one. Some people might not even find one in their lifetime and I have two, two people that I love unconditionally and that love me more than I ever thought possible. Today we will be finding out the results of the DNA test and I can’t help but feel a little nervous. I am quite anxious and so is Logan, I can tell. I haven’t been able to sleep properly last night. I even left the room while Logan and Beth had a steamy make out session. I just couldn’t focus as I am worried, what if the kids are not mine? What if they are Logan’s? I know that I will love them the same as if they were min
The Angelic CEO Chapter 71 - Wedding day part 2
Logan POV The ceremony has ended and now it’s time for the party, Mel, Olivia, my mom and Beth went all in on this, I stayed out of it and so did Mike. None of us has a death wish, messing with wedding arrangements seems wrong and I know that whatever I suggested would’ve been denied, so I stayed away. Besides Beth is extremely hormonal and everything makes her cry, so I would always end up doing whatever she wanted just so she wouldn’t cry. Elisabeth wanted to be married to us before the babies were born, we will be finding out the DNA of the twins, we decided to do it before the wedding and find our after, like that it doesn’t matter who’s who, we are all married, we all share responsibilities and we will all love those kids. I can’t help but think that I would love the twins to be mine but I know how broken Mike would be if they are not his. After all twins run in his family and not in mine, so the probability of them being his are higher than min
The Angelic CEO Chapter 70 - Wedding day
Michael POV “Are you ready?”, Mel asks as she opens the door, I am sitting in the corner of the room finishing up the laces of my shoes. “Almost”, I say and she smiles as she sits in the end of the bed. “Have you seen her?”, I ask and Mel nods her head in excitement. “She looks absolutely beautiful”, Mel says and I smile at the same time Gabe walks in without knocking. “Are you ready?”, he asks me and I nod my head standing up in front of the mirror looking at my reflection. “Your father would be so proud”, Mom says as she approaches me from behind. I turn around and pull her into a tight hug. I see tears rolling down her eyes and Mel tells her she needs to stop or she will ruin her makeup. I look at the mirror and think about dad, I never looked like him or had anything in common with the man but he was my dad, he was the most important man in my life, he was th
The Angelic CEO Chapter 69 - Happy part 2
Elisabeth POV As soon as Michael and Logan leave the house, I walk back into the bedroom, picking up the white dress Michael got me from the back of the closet and placing it in the bed. I have a quick shower and do some light makeup, and I leave my hair down, cascading down my back. I put the dress on, and it hugs my figure perfectly. I smile at the mirror, looking at myself. I look like a bride. The dress is long, covering the length of my legs, it doesn’t have a back, and the small straps fall on the side of my shoulders. I pick up the little box Michael left for me in the dresser. I see my beautiful ring in it, and I put it on; I am not expecting Michael to propose to me again, we talked about it, and I know how committed he is to propose to Logan, and I don’t want to put more pressure on him. He already proposed once, and I am okay with it. I walk out of the room, and as soon as I open the
The Angelic CEO Chapter 68 - Happy
Logan POV Michael is taking me out on a date today. It’s our first official date as a couple out in the open. I can’t lie, I am really nervous. Beth is helping me to get ready as she chooses a grey suit to match my eyes apparently. It makes no sense as I have blue eyes but I agree with her. She has been extremely hormonal this past week and I decide to say yes to everything, she is ruthless. “Come, put this on”, she says offering me a blue tie. I look at her shaking my head, I put a limit on tie, I will wear the suit but a tie? Really? Where is he taking me? To the freaking opera? “Do I really have to? It’s just not me”, I say and she looks at me dead serious. I think that at any point smoke will start to appear from her ears, she looks that upset. “If you are not going to wear what I give you, why did you ask me to help you?”, she asks throwing the tie at the bed and walking out of the
The Angelic CEO Chapter 67 - Siblings drinks
Michael POV After a long soak in the bath with me and Logan Elisabeth is having a nap all wrapped up around him, I kiss the top of her head and he smiles at me. He is reading the newspaper on his phone, I get out of bed and walk out of the room typing on my phone. I put my shoes on as I get ready to leave the house. I need to share the news with my family. I think this kind of good news will do them good. I will tell mom later, she is in a spiritual retreat somewhere, basically she is getting drunk and eating her weight in ice cream and carbs in a expensive hotel somewhere. You know what? Good for her. She needs to rest and she needs to grieve. Gabe and Mel are meeting me in my apartment, I don’t know why I still own an apartment, I am basically living with Logan and Elisabeth in Logan’s apartment, but we will have to move to somewhere bigger, we need more space with the twins and I will have m
The Angelic CEO Chapter 66 - Busy Day
Michael POV “Are you sure you’re okay with this?” I ask Elisabeth as we walk into the private room in the back of the jewellery owned by Gabe. She offers me her hand, and I take it without hesitation. The manager takes us to a small closed room right at the back, it has perfect light and privacy, that’s exactly what I need. The room is elegant and well decorated, providing the privacy I need to choose this ring. He offers us coffee, and we kindly accept as he puts some cushioned displayers in front of me, all of them with wedding bands and engagement rings. How am I supposed to choose? I look at Elisabeth that is looking carefully at each one of them until her eyes stop and they shine. She offers me a smile, and she sees a thick gold band with a small, almost invisible diamond in the middle, her eyes shine, and I know what she’s thinking. “This is the one”, she says, and I smile at her, grabbing the ring with my left hand. “Are you sure?”. I
The Angelic CEO Chapter 65 - Logan
Logan POV Elisabeth and I have been keeping to ourselves, I don’t want to interfere with the ceremony and Beth is feeling a little under the weather, after all her father got killed the same day. Although she had no emotional connection to the guy she still cried after he dies, it was her father after all. Mike has been with his family this entire time and he always looks deep in thought, I haven’t seen him shed a tear, in fact the only person I’ve seen crying was Olivia, while Gabe, Mike and Mel haven’t showed their emotions today. I don’t think that is healthy but who am I to say anything, they feel how they feel and one thing I know is that they are all messed up in some way or another. River is standing in the end of the room talking to some people and she gives me a small wave. I wave back and all of a sudden Mike stands up and walks towards us. “Hey, how are you feeling?”, I ask M
