“What are we doing here?” Lydia asked again and Logan groaned.“You have asked that like a million times.” Logan said as he swung her hand.“Yes cause I don't know what we are doing in a warehouse filled with guns.” Lydia scoffed and rolled her eyes.“Okay, we are on a date.”“What? A date? In a gun warehouse?”“Yes, look at it as a date.”“What?”“We are here already.” Logan said with a smile immediately they got to where targets are.“We are here for what?” She asked with an eye roll. “Am here to teach you how to a shoot a gun.”“Why?”“Really? Why?”“Yeah, why?”“What if am not with you and one of my enemies attacks you? What are you going to do?”“Run and scream for help.”“Na, that is lame.” Logan said and picked a gun, he corked it and shot the target. “Now, you try.” He said and stretched the gun to her, she collected it and it fell from her hand immediately “Its so heavy, I can't lift it.” She whined and folded her arms, Logan picked the gun and placed it in her arms, he he
Lydia played with her fingers nervously as she walked behind Logan's mother, they got to a room and they both walked in.“Sit.” The woman ordered and Lydia sat on the couch, the woman sat beside her and sighed.“Lydia.” The woman called and her hand shook, she doesn't know why but she is so much scared of Logan's mum.“Am sorry for ruining the party ma’am and am sorry I made Leo and Logan stress you and act rude to you, am also sorry for making Logan threaten you, I'm really sorry for everything have done, please don't get mad at me or insult me, am not a whore again, I'm a changed person now and... ““Hey, hey, it's okay.” Mrs. Griffo said with a smile and chuckled. “Am sorry.” Lydia said again and bowed.“Its fine, am not here to insult you or blame you for the party, I just want to thank you for bringing Logan back, for making the twins closer to him, for making him happy again.”“But I didn't do anything, I just acted normal.”“You did a lot Lydia, let me tell you a bit about Kir
Logan held Lydia tightly in his arms as she slept, ever since she fell asleep he has been wondering what could make her that emotional and cry like that. She also kept saying she is sorry. But for what?Logan sighed as he creased her hair and kissed her forehead, he really hopes she is okay though.*****HOURS LATERLydia finally opened her eyes and sighed when she realized she was alone on the bed. She felt so tired and her head felt heavy. She knew it was a result of her cries and she sighed. She checked the time and realized it was night already. She slowly stood up and yawned. She walked into the bathroom and washed her face, it was a lot better and she sighed.She changed her cloth to one of Logan's shirt and walked out of the room, she got to the living room and saw him with the men she saw the other day.“Your lady is here.” A man said and Logan turned to see Lydia. Logan turned back to his men to ended the meeting, the men walked out except one of them who walled towards Lydi
Lydia walked into Logan's house and head straight to the room, she got to the room and luckily he wasn't in. She sighed in relief and walked into the bathroom, she took off her clothes and stood under the shower. She spent what seems like forever in it before walking out. She sighed in relief as she felt better physically but still broken emotionally. She got dressed in Logan's cloth as usual and lay on the bed. She picked her phone and set a time of seventy one hours, she sighed and dialed Logan's number. It rang and he picked up immediately.“Where are you?” She asked.“Am at home.”“Where?”“Right here.” He said and walked into the room, she ended the call and rushed to him immediately. She hugged him tightly and kissed him, she didn't pull away and she continued kissing him. Logan was getting turned on by her touch and he pulled away immediately.“Woah, calm down Lydia.” He said trying to catch his breath and she kissed him again. He groaned and pulled away from the kiss.“Do you
THE NEXT DAY“What type of wedding dress would you love to wear?” Logan's mum asked with a smile as she showed Lydia pictures of different wedding gowns. Lydia faked a smile and picked the one with diamonds, Logan's mother smiled and showed her the pictures of jewelries. Lydia picked two of her choice and Logan's mother keot showing her pictures of things she could wear for the party. After hours of selecting and ordering, Lydia finally stood up and walked out of Mrs. Logan's room. She hasn't been able to talk to Logan since yesterday and it's really bothering her. She was about to get to the living room when Lucas and Leo ran to her happily.“Hey guys.” She said tiredly and bent to their level.“Oh, you are tired.” They chorused and she smiled.“Yeah but what do you need?”“Nothing, we just want to spend some time with you but you look so tired.” Lucas said “I can play with you.”“No, go home and rest, a beauty needs to rest a lot so you can take care of our brother.” Leo said and
Logan's mother sniffed as she stared at her son's pale body on the bed. The doctor examined him and sighed.“He is fine, like I said days ago, the poison has been flushed out of his system, all he needs is to just wake up.” His mother nodded and the doctor walked out, she couldn't stop crying cause she felt guilty. She felt that she pushed her son to his destruction, she believed the gold digger and put her son in her hands. His father was right, Lydia will be his downfall. “You don't need to cry anymore, you have successfully ruined his life the more, do you think Logan will become normal again?” His father asked and Mrs. Griffo cried out.“How was I suppose to know? I was trying to help him because he was so happy with her, I felt like she was the right person for him.”“And she wasn't, but she was the right person for his downfall.”“I wasn't the only one who loved her, what about Lucas and Leo? They have been so down ever since she left.”“You all fell for her game, I knew she
Lydia smiled immediately they walked out of the house, she stared at the ring on her finger and smiled out tears. For some reason she couldn't take if off. Weeks after she left, she discovered she was pregnant, at first she planned on aborting it cause she didn't want to have any memory of Logsn but she thought about the innocent lives she will be taking again. Won't that make her truly a murderer?She decided to keep the pregnancy and when she discovered they were three lives living in her, she became happy and at the same time sad. Happy because it's always Logan's wish to have a child with her and sad because he wasn't here to see them.Months after she ran away, she discovered Logan was still alive due to the news she watched, she was so happy he survived and saw he looked more handsome than before. She smiled out tears remembering all that happened, she knew she could never meet him again and she wished him all the happiness in life.With the money she took from Rufus, Lydia was
“Yay, it's Saturday.” Danielle yelled and ran down the stairs, she almost tripped and Henry quickly picked her up. “Careful dear.” He said and she giggled as he placed her on the floor.Damien walked down the stairs in a jean and hoodie and he nod his head to the music he was listening to.Henry sighed and carried him from the stairs when he noticed he wasn't paying attention as he was walking. Daniel walked down the stairs wearing a jean jacket and trouser, he smiled as he winked at them.“I look super cool and handsome, I think I got my looks from Henry.” Daniel said and Danielle scoffed.“You are ugly, Henry is a model and you are nothing but a ugly boy.” Daniel fumed angrily and was about to move to her when Henry held him up.“Dont fight with your sister.” He warned and Daniel scoffed. Danielle stuck out her tongue to him and he frowned.Lydia walked down the stairs and smiled at them.“Why aren't you guys wearing the same thing?” Lydia asked.“Ewwwww.” They chorused and she s
***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
