- See? You also want this as much as I do... - she encouraged him, avidly, letting the panties fall around her neck - So just stop being so stubborn and just accept that there is nothing wrong with going back to how we were before. Our desire was part of what brought us together, after all... - Missy recalled him, before sighing sadly - You're so afraid of hurting me, but the only thing that hurts me is to see you moving away from me, even if either physically. – she finally admitted, heartbroken.- Oh, Missy... - Logan muttered, now looking terribly regretful - That was never my intention... I just wanted to protect you...- But you're depriving us of being together that way just to protect me from something that doesn't exist! Don't you see? – she gasped, again frustrated – You know what? I don't know why I'm still here talking to you... - she turned her eyes to his still hard member, rising invitingly towards her - When there's someone who understands me much more...-Missy... - Lo
- Do you swear you're going to spend the whole night with that sulky face, Logan?With a snarl, Logan just crossed his arms even more tightly and glared at his sister-in-law, even though he knew Megan wasn't to blame for the whole situation. Well, technically she had. If it weren't for that damn idea she'd had to throw a halloween party inside the agency, maybe he could have been at home, enjoying some alone time with his wife... Or, at the very least, at his parents' house, with her and the kids, having a family game night.But instead, on Megan's brilliant suggestion, which all the other employees seemed to think was genius, he was now sulking, leaning against a wall, all alone in the middle of a darkened room, with flashing lights, loud music and dozens of dancing and alcoholic happy people. The initial plan was that he and Missy could be there together, taking advantage of that Friday night to spend some time together, while the kids spent a fun weekend with their grandparents...
- Of course it is. – Missy smiled, her wide innocent eyes wide – It tastes like pineapple and it's not bitter at all, like other drinks that always leave a bad taste in my mouth.- This is called V.I.P. It's one of my sister's favorite bar specials. They let a pineapple sit for days inside a gallon of vodka, squeeze it and then... This is the result. It's literally pineapple flavored alcohol. – he saw Missy's eyes begin to widen with fear little by little… Comically little by little – Oh, love, I'm sorry. How many glasses did you drink? – they both knew that Missy got drunk extremely easily. And he could hardly imagine what would happen if she had drunk too much of something as strong as vodka.To his surprise though, Missy just threw back her head in a loud, carefree laugh.- Oh, so I'm drunk? That explains it all! - Still laughing, she patted Logan's shoulder full of complicity - But, also, I think anyone would get drunk after 08 glasses of sweet vodka, right?- You drank eight glas
– A toast… – he touched the tip of the sparkling champagne against the water, smiling playfully – To the hope that my beloved wife won't suffer too much when she wakes up with a hangover tomorrow. – he wished, waiting for Missy to start drinking the water again, to only then take a sip of the drink in his hands, letting the icy liquid run down his throat a few times before finally stopping, raising an eyebrow in Missy's direction as soon as he had placed it. the bottle on a table next door – Satisfied? he asked, with a defiant half smile.His wife, however, did not have the reaction he expected. And, with a malicious and obviously satisfied smile, she wrapped herself completely around him, hugging his neck with her arms and his waist with her legs, while she pulled him into a kiss that was obscenely deep, in which their tongues intertwined and he could taste the mix of alcohol, pineapple and Missy's unique sweetness, which had him rock hard again immediately."Missy…" was all he manag
- Promise that when you come back, we'll play together in the pool, mom?With a warm smile, Logan snuggled little Hope further into his arms, making the six-month-old baby gurgle in her sleep as she approached the door, where his wife and three other children were saying goodbye.- Of course you do, honey. – Missy smiled sweetly, answering little Gwyneth's question as she took her daughter in her arms, touching her fingertip to her incredibly dramatic pout, even for a 3-year-old girl – But you three have to promise me that you will behave while they're at the pool with Dad this afternoon. Remember he'll be alone with the four of you and there won't be anyone to take care of Hope if something happens.- All right, Mom. Gwyneth sighed, wrapping her little arms around Missy's neck even tighter.- Oh, don't be like that, my little love. Mom will be back in a heartbeat, I promise. – Blowing a kiss on the tip of Gwyneth's nose, Missy put her on the ground again, so she could wrap Jonathan a
- Funny to hear that from the two fools who agreed to dress up as sheep on Halloween just to make mom smile when she had the flu in bed. - Logan disguised his own laugh with a fake growl, putting both his hands on their heads to be able to ruffle them, which made the three laugh - And don't think I didn't notice that you were trying to dodge the subject, Jonathan Logan Knight . - he warned them softly, making their faces return to that insecure expression - Come on, boys. They know they can tell me what's wrong. Remember what Mom and I taught: it's better to speak the truth and ask for help...- Than lie and end up making everything worse later. - Jonathan completed with a resigned sigh, before staring at him with those green eyes that were exactly like his - Sorry, Dad. It's just... We wanted to ask you something.- But we don't want you to be upset. - Tristan completed, crestfallen.- Whatever it is, I guarantee I won't get mad, okay? - Logan assured them, starting to get worried ab
At the time, he had tried once more to convince himself that he was doing it to keep those crumbs of her presence as he around in order to be able to contain himself, satisfying the needs of the curse and at the same time not giving in to it completely... When, in fact, he was just a pathetic and desperate man, tasting his own poison, as he ached to see that the woman he had tried so hard to push away was actually pulling away, tearing himself to pieces inside at the thought that Missy surely thought of him as someone completely crazy, boorish, and terrifying, who she wanted to keep her distance from.One of the few times he hadn't come up with silly excuses to justify himself and his barely contained love was when he'd given in to the impulse to bribe the building's former owner just to get him to lie to Missy and make her think that the only free office was precisely the one that was a few meters from his, where he could see her, hear her voice and smell her whenever he wanted. The
Lost in his reverie and his memories, Logan only woke up when he realized that the boys were now looking at each other in a confused way, certainly not able to understand the kind of depth he had been talking about; clearing his throat, he smiled at his boys, putting aside his memories and returning to lighten that conversation.- But you don't have to worry about that for a long time. After all, the legacy never reached anyone under the age of 20.- All of that? – Jonathan's eyes widened, shocked – And if I've already met my soulmate before that?- So, as soon as the clock strikes midnight on the day of the 20th anniversary of the two of you, then you will know immediately. – good-naturedly, he tapped his son's nose with the tip of his finger, making him smile – Any more questions?- We'll think of more! Tristan promised excitedly.- Of course, as you always do. – Logan laughed, getting up with them in his arms, in order to put them on their feet too – Now, I think we better hurry. O
