Logan's Pov“I’m not fucking interested if you had a fight with her or not. How the fuck does that affect my life? To crown it all, Mason, these are low lives…they’re definitely after your money. How hard is that for you to comprehend?” I said.I was indeed furious for me to speak to my own best friend that way. Sometimes, he behaves gullible and sometimes makes me wonder if he uses his brain or not. “You’ve got to calm down, Logan. It isn’t that complicated as you make it to be. You’ve been doing the talking since, it’s my turn.” I let out a heavy sigh, trying to get myself to understand his perspective here. To me, everything was glaring that the girl was a low life after his money.“I’m all ears.”“Thank you.” He said as I rolled my eyes.He had better said something reasonable and convincing, or else, this would be our third world war.“Can you just make your point?”“Well, I think I’m the one at fault here. And to clarify things, this girl is not a gold-digger.”“How sure are
Raleigh’s POVI wrapped her up in my hands. Yeah, I knew Mo to be a crybaby especially when something like this happens – heartbreak from a guy. I heard strictly warned against getting too intimate with anybody just the moment you met someone and this was what she always did – (giving too much of herself) that led guys to break their hearts. And now, it happened again.I never knew Mason could be an asshole. So he never considered her his girlfriend when they were kissing, cuddling, having sex every two seconds, and the rest of that bullshit.I was disappointed. I expected something better from him. That’s why asking the right questions like “What exactly are we doing? What do you see me as?” is important to avoid unnecessary and stupid heartbreak.“Mason,” I growled.“I don’t want to hear his name.” Mo sniffed, pulling more of me into her.“You know you caused all these, Mo. I warned you when you were going into this.”“Have you ever loved someone?” she released herself from me, with
Logan's POVWhat the heck was Joseph doing here? It better not be what I’m thinking. Suddenly, our eyes met. It held long enough that it seemed like a competition to know who would take their eyes off first.He took his off first, putting on ahis shades as he shoved his hand into his pocket, making his way into the building. I never expected to see him here.“Isn’t that Joseph?” Mason asked. That was who Francesca, my ex-girlfriend, cheated on me with. It was insane knowing he was here. To do what exactly?“I wonder what he’s doing here?” I sighed.“Forget him. Act like he was never here and don’t let it change your mood.”“You saying it now already changed my mood. Forget it. I’m less concerned about him. I just want us to find a potential investor and get this done with.”“What?”Yeah, I forgot he didn’t know what was happening.“This is what happens when you don’t pay attention to your business. The company is in a bad state and it may go into liquidity soon. The business needs mo
Raleigh’s POVThat must have been the most ridiculous thing I have ever done. He’d want to crucify me at this point. But what the hell was Jake doing here of all places?With fear in my heart, I hugged him tighter, landing a kiss on his cheek. I knew I was overdoing it when he pulled me out of his arms.“I’m sorry,” I whispered. Fear clutching my heart.I could feel my knees shake, knowing he was about to smack me in the face and of course disgrace me. I was ready as he stepped towards me.He came closer and closer. Suddenly, I felt his lips pressed against mine.What the fuck was happening? Mr. Logan Hunt was kissing me. His lips were soft, it felt like soap against my hard, rocky lips. I knew I had taken this too far. I just wanted to make Jake jealous and bring to his awareness that I could find someone better and of course, someone could love me.That night we broke up, he had told it to my face that I was unworthy of love or any male figure in my life. And that has stuck with m
Logan's POV It was a miracle that the investors found favor in my business, or else, Sprocks would be filing for bankruptcy.The pitching was over, perhaps I could rest now. I stood face to face with the mirror, gazing at what a miserable person I’d become. It was sad that this was what was happening. And to crown it all, my greatest enemy was there to see my downfall.Not literally, but yes.I hated every single word I uttered as I stood on the carpet, knowing Joseph was there. And to think of it, he knew Raleigh. So he dated my ex and simultaneously Raleigh.What an asshole.He even changed his name…that dude is an entirely different son of a bitch. He wasn’t the top in deception or manipulation, but he is ranked in the top tier.Suddenly, I heard someone barge through the door. As I turned to look, it was Raleigh. It was like I felt in my bones that she was the one person to come in here and disrupt my privacy.“Why the hell would you barge into the gent’s restroom.”“Perhaps, I’l
Raleigh POVI pushed open the door to my apartment, fully expecting silence after the terrible meeting with two insane humans (Logan and Jake) I'd had.Instead, the sound of laughter greeted me. I paused in the doorway, frowning. Mo and Mason were on the couch, both grinning as if they hadn’t been at each other’s throats just yesterday.I blinked.Had I missed something? The last time I saw them, they were barely speaking to each other. But now, they were acting like everything was sunshine and rainbows.“Uh… what’s going on?” I asked, my voice full of confusion. I dropped my bag by the door and stepped inside.“Aren’t you two supposed to be mad at each other?”Mason looked up at me, still wearing that goofy smile of his.“Oh, that? Water under the bridge.”Mo nodded, her face lighting up.“Yeah, Leigh. We talked it out, and everything’s fine now.” She jumped up from the couch and hurried over to me.“By the way, I owe you an apology for earlier. I shouldn’t have snapped at you. I was
Raleigh POVI walked into the bar with Mason and Mo, feeling a mix of excitement and nerves. The place was bright, with music playing and people laughing. I could smell delicious food and hear glasses clinking.This was a celebration for Mason and Logan, who had just found an investor for their business. I hoped this night would be fun, but I wasn’t so sure because Logan would be there.Mo looked so happy, her smile stretching from ear to ear.“This is going to be awesome!” she said, bouncing on her feet. I tried to smile back, but my stomach felt like it was doing flips.We found a big table in the corner. Mason sat down first, and I plopped into a chair next to him. Mo sat across from us, and I could see Logan at the bar, talking to the bartender. He looked serious, like he always did, but I noticed he was wearing a nice shirt that made him look really good. Ugh, why was I even thinking that?“Hey, where’s Logan?” I asked, trying to change the subject from my silly thoughts.Mason la
Raleigh POVI woke up in my bed with a big headache. My eyes opened slowly. The room looked bright, and I felt all fuzzy inside. I tried to remember what happened the night before. We were at the bar with Mason, Mo, and Logan. I had too many drinks, and everything became a blur.I sat up in bed and put my hand on my forehead. What did I do? Then I remembered—Logan kissed me! My cheeks turned hot, and I felt stupid. Why did I let him kiss me? And why did he kiss me in the first place?I grabbed my phone from the nightstand. It buzzed with a message from Mo.Mo: Good morning! How do you feel?I quickly typed back.Me: Not good. I drank too much.A moment later, my phone buzzed again. It was Mo.Mo: Me too! But guess what? Logan is a mess! He’s still sleeping on the couch!I couldn’t help but smile.Logan was a mess? That was funny to think about. I wanted to see him, but I also felt scared.
