“What?” Logan asked.“Yeah, why did you sigh?” “Nothing.” Logan replied and walked forward. Lydia walked after him and they both entered the elevator.They got out of the company and Logan walked towards his car.A heavy wind suddenly blew and Lydia hugged herself.“Come on, I will drop you off.” Logan said holding her hand and she shook her head.“No, don't worry. I like walking in the rain.”“What?” “Yeah, it helps me let go off my worries and I will be able to scream out whatever I want in peace.” “But you will get cold and sick.”“Nope, I can't get sick.”“Really?” Logan asked and she nodded with a smile. The rain started drizzling and she smiled happily. “You are weird.” Logan said and walked into his car. Lydia shrugged and started walking in the rain as it became heavier.She screamed and spin around, a hand suddenly held her and she turned to see Logan.“What?” She yelled and he sighed.“You are going to get cold Lydia, get into the car now.” He ordered and she rolled her
The second day went like a flash and it was time to close for the day. Lydia was a bit worried because through out the day she kept thinking about what to wear. She doesn't have any clothes for parties like that and she was also worried because Logan didn't say anything about the date. She walked into his office to tell him she is done for the day.“Logan.” She called and he looked at her.“Am done for the day.”“Okay, we are leaving together.” Logan said and stood up.“Really? Why?”“Have you forgotten you are my date to a party?”“No.”“Good, so you are coming with me to my house.” Lydia nodded still feeling confused about what is going on, they both walked out of the company together and entered his car.Logan drove to another mansion entirely, Lydia looked around as they both got down and walked in. They walked in and met two girls and a guy there with big boxes and Lydia turned to him.“The girls are your make up artists, they have the dress you will wear and will do their wor
“Ladies and gentlemen, can I have your attention?” The man called and Logan gritted his teeth.“What the hell is be up to?” Logan muttered and held Lydia tightly.Everyone turned to the man and he smiled.“As we all know what we are here for, why don't we make it more interesting?”“Its been done all over the place in every mafia party, how about we bid to bed?” He asked and everyone cheered. “Fuck.” Logan groaned and turned to Lydia.“Fuck, you look hot.” He said and frowned, he removed everything used to hold her hair and let her hair fall to her shoulders.“Damn.” He groaned seeing she looked more beautiful. “Logan what is going on?” “Look, I don't have much time to explain, you can going to be put up for sale.”“What?” Lydia yelled as some men dressed in black escorted her to the stage. They got to the stage and the buying and selling started. Lydia got moved to a top price and Logan groaned, he walked to the front and stood, Lydia looked so scared and he gave her a assuring l
Logan chuckled and fell on the bed, Lydia frowned and sat up.“You think this is funny?” She asked angrily and he chuckled.“Yeah, sure.” “It is not funny, why will you laugh at something like this? Of all things in this world you laugh at this?” “Yes, sure.” He shrugged and relaxed on the bed.“You are weird.” She scoffed and he shrugged.“Just admit that I turned you on by just teasing you.” “No you didn't.” “Really? Then why did you say Oh My God, Logan please stop.” He mimicked her and Lydia frowned.“Its not funny, am going to sleep in the guest room.” She said angrily and stood up, she walked to mwards the exit and Logan hurriedly stopped her.“Okay, fine. Am sorry.” “Whatever.” She replied and walked back to the bed. “Such a drama queen.” Logan muttered and rolled his eyes.********MORNING“Ugh, how can a lady wake up so late?” Logan muttered staring at Lydia, he moved closer to her and she suddenly opened her eyes. She flinched and fell from the huge bed, Logan sighed
“What’s wrong?” Logan asked noticing how she suddenly became silent.“Hmm, it's nothing.” She said and he placed his chin on her shoulder, her heart kept beating in fear again.“So how much is it?” He asked and Lydia sighed before turning to him. “Its fine Logan, you don't have to worry. Have saved the money up, it's just a bit left okay?” She said with a smile.“But if I pay it you guys can have an extra cash to... ““No Logan, please, just don't worry okay?”“Oh, okay.” “But I will like to meet him.”“Really?”“Yeah.”“Wow, that will be really nice. He watches the news everytime you are on it and he says he wants to be like you.”“He knows what is good unlike his sister.”“There is nothing good about you, you are a drug lord, a mafia boss, a killer, what is so good about you?”“If am not good why aren't you running away from me? Everyone who knows what I really am runs away from me all the time.”“Does your parents know?”“Nope, just you and Eddy.”“Why are you a drug lord?” “Am
“What?” Lydia asked.“Am serious Lydia, I am scared she won't make it, she is becoming abnormal, I don't want to be like that or die.”“You won't okay? Just calm down, you will be taking the surgery soon.”“Are you sure?”“I promise Henry.”“Okay.” He said and hugged her tightly. Lydia kissed his forehead and walked out, she met Logan leaning on the wall and walked to him.“Is everything okay?” He asked moving her hair to the back.“Yeah, I am.”“Wjat was that about?” He asked referring to why Henry said he wants to see her.“Nothing much, he just wanted to talk to me.”“About what?”“What is your business?” Lydia asked with a smirk and he chuckled.“Come on.” He said and held her hand, he pulled her with him and she followed. They got out of the hotel and they entered the car. He drove away and head towards the house. He suddenly got a text on his phone and he frowned. He suddenly drifted the car and took another direction.“Where are we going?” Lydia asked in fear seeing how he is
“Barbie?” Lydia asked with a wide smile.“Of course, you are my barbie.” He said and pulled her cheek, she smiled and giggled.“Come on, it's getting late already, you should sleep.” He said and she nodded, she lay on the bed and he tucked her in, he held her hand and sat beside her.“Goodnight.” He said.“Night.” She replied and he pecked her forehead. She slowly closed her eyes feeling safe as she fell asleep.**********MORNINGLydia slowly opened her eyes as the ray of sunlight shown to her eyes, she sighed and slowly sat up. She yawned and smiled remembering last night.She slowly got up and prepared for work, she searched for her phone and stopped when she remembered it was broken.She walled out of the house and took a cab to work, she got to the company and walked in, in a minute she walked into Logan's office to see him tapping his fingers on his desk repeatedly.He looked up and sighed in relief immediately he saw her.“Where the hell have you been? Have called you a lot of
Logan watched the doctor as he examined Lydia, he moved closer to the doctor and stared at him as expected him to give him an information about what is going on with her.“So?” Logan asked.“Relax Mr Griffo, she is okay, she has just been really stressed out for a long time and now it's affecting her, just make her use this drugs and she will be fine. You will give her two tablets this night as two tablets in the morning, continue it that way till the drug has finished and she will be okay.” The doctor explained and stretched the drug to him, he collected it and nodded.“That will be all sir, goodnight.” The doctor said and walked out, Logan dropped the drugs on the table and sighed, he sat beside her on the bed and smiled.After a while, Lydia finally woke up and Logan smiled at her.“Hey barbie.” He said and moved closer to her, he lifted her up a bit and sat behind her, he hugged her and she leaned on his chest.“Logan.” She called and groaned in pain.“I feel so tired.” She whined
***THE OLD HOUSE****JUDE'S POV*Staring at my parents all sad and longing for my return made my heart churn and I realized that not everybody got the love I got while growing up. My parents protected me from every little evil the world could offer, what love could be greater than that."I also got to find out out that you both rule the darkest Mafia empire in New York." Mum gasped immediately and I sighed. "I should be so angry that you both kept it away from me but I know you did it for my best. And mom, I think you and Uncle Carlos have to calm the riff between you—""Did he hurt you because of that?" Dad asked immediately and I shook my head, no. "No, dad. He wanted to but he couldn't because..." I looked up at Carlos who had his eyes on me and I decided to swallow my next word. "He didn't hurt me, dad. And well, I also go to find out that he isn't involved with those men who tried to kill Snow." "Is he there with you?" Dad asked and I nodded. "Do you think I should talk with hi
*JUDE'S POV*"No one as ever talked to me so casually and has never questioned me before." He answered and I frowned but nodded. Is he that scary? I sighed out and passed him a small smile which he surprisingly returned with a small smile to and jeez, I was fucking confused about this man. "So... What juice. Majorly, I like pineapple juice." I brought the topic back up and he clapped his hands once with a jolly smile on and I don't know if I should be freaked out or not because Marcus was fucking terrified."I actually don't take juice... I got addicted to liquor over the years." He told me and I rubbed my heart immediately. "I know, it burns the heart and all but that doesn't count to a soul who has no inch of love in it and beside, liquor now tastes like juice." He answered and I shook my head in disbelief then laugh-scoffed.I stood up from my seat and walked around the table to the refrigerator, I opened it and brought out all the juice in it. I returned to the slab and picked ou
***OLD HOUSE, MIAMI***"If you want me to, father." He answered and the Maniac nodded but the little smile at the edge of his lips didn't go unnoticed by me. Why did he smirk? That's question had been roaming in my head ever since I entered the extravagant room while this Marcus's lookalike sat in the corner of the room with his legs raised up and his head in-between, I sighed out loudly but then frowned when I heard him sniff. "Hey, hey, are you... Crying?" I asked dumbly and moved towards him only to scream out in agony as I felt a sharp blade cut my forearm skin. I gasped when I realized that it wasn't blade but a sharp knife. "The fuck, bro. Ah." I yelped out and collected the knfie from him. "Did he tell you to do it? Was that why he smirked? Did he tell you to kill me?" I asked in a whisper but he only stared at me with a painful expression and a quivering lip.I hissed, stood up, and made my way into the bathroom where luckily, a first aid kit lied. "I really miss mom right
***PRIVATE JET****JUDE'S POV*Oh God, I just had a bad dream that I was kidnapped from my home. My eyelids parted slowly and I felt a sharp pain in my head but it went just as it came. I tried to stretch out my hands when I discovered that I couldn't move. My eyes looked down at my hands and I frowned at the thick ropes I was tied with. "The fuck." I cussed out as I stared around just to see that I was in a jet, in the freaking air."Keep your mouth shut, we're trying to sleep." A female's voice came from the side and I turned sharply to access her. She sat with her legs crossed but she looked 5ft8 just like my mum but her cream golden hair was tied in a lower bun while she coveredx the rest up with a black face cap which matched her jumpsuit. She glanced at me and I felt her sharp cold eyes bore into my soul. "Fuck you!" I told her with a good smirk and I knew I hit the bottom because I saw her hands twitch and hands wrap into a fistbut she didn't make the move to hit me which gav
***THE GUEST HOUSE****JUDE'S POV*I walked into the house excitedly, ready to announce to mum that my best friend is back but just as I stepped into the sitting room, I stopped. "Hey, baby." Mom came out of the kitchen and walked towards me and I frowned. "Why is dad's cologne so strong in here as if he was here?" I asked as my dad's cologne radiated in the room, especially from mum's favorite couch. Mom stopped immediately at my words and I stared at her with a frown, she looked taken aback at my question but she pouted after."I, I was the one that spray his smart collection all over the room... I just... I just miss him." Her sad voice was the least I could ever want. Seeing my mom tear or hearing her voice change to a sad one makes my heart churn in a very harsh way. I advanced towards her quickly and embraced her. "It's okay, it's okay to miss your husband. I miss him too, I miss dad so much... His cologne around the house is good. I like it." I said, trying my best to comfort
***THE GUEST HOUSE****LYDIA'S POV*"Tell me everything!" I ordered and she began to spill everything that happened at the Thomas's clan with me and I smirk. "That dummy is just blinded by lust. And to believe that he could protect anyone from me is so sick of him." I shook my head in disbelief and she chuckled."I know right..." She chuckled and I smiled. "And boss, I saw the guy you described to me there... He's like the right hand man to Thomas and he was so suspicious of me. I think he saw through too." She reported and my brows creased into a frown. "Put on the act... He's not a threat." I answered cooly and she hummed. "Go to sleep, Ruby so that you won't miss your flight tomorrow. Work starts tomorrow." "Yes, boss. Thank you for the second chance." She replied and I hum quietly then disconnected the call. It is so obvious that Thomas is dumb but Odger won't be so I have to tie this knot and plan this harder. I quickly sent everything to my husband, he'll definitely know the b
*JUDE'S POV* I cracked up hard as Snow told me her fun childhood story which were totally different from the ones she told me when we first met. This time, all she said we're truth. We walked down the streets of New York hands in hands but she suddenly stopped in front of a full mirror, passer-by stared as Snow did a full turn in front of the mirror. She turned to me with a small pout and a frown. "I didn't even know how I grew this big and tall." She said and I slide my hand around her waist and pulled her closer. "I wish I had my memories back," she added as I sighed. I wish that too. "You'll get them back, shawty." I told her but she glared at me. "Don't call me shawty, daddy's boy." She warned, just the same way she did the first time I called her that and I smiled. "I've said that same line before, right?" I nodded at her question and she sighed. I pat her head with force and she yelped, she was about to hit me back when we heard a loud car horn from behind. We both turned a
*JUDE'S POV* Holding unto her hand as if she was gonna slip away any moment from now became an habit because I just couldn't help it. She was too adorable. "Oh my God, I'm filled up." She groaned out as she rested her head against the table while she rub her tummy with her left palm and I rub her back in a up aanf downward motion which made her belge. She covered her mouth embarrassed and I laughed heartily, she glanced at me but buried her face against the table and I smiled. "I don't know why, but I like you." She confessed and I smiled. "I love you too." I told her and kissed the back of her hand with a small smile. Just as we stood up, mom walked in and my smile broaden. "Good morning, mom." I let go of Snow's hand as I went in for her hug and when I let go, I held unto Snow's hand back. "Morning, baby. Morning, Snow." She turned to Snow who's face had turned pink, her being shy wentlooked so adorable. She opened her mouth to talk but she closed it back , mom laughed and pu
