~Ava~

My phone buzzed sometime after midnight. I was already half-asleep, wrapped in my blanket and dreaming about Logan's smile.

Tristan: Pack a bag, sunshine squad. We’re going to the beach tomorrow. No excuses.

Charlotte: YESSSSS! I’ve been dying for some sun, you're the best baby ❤️

Tristan: ❤️

Logan: Is it too late to pretend I’m sick now?

Tristan: Nope. Ava already said you're coming.

I laughed, even though I hadn't said a word. Trust Tristan to drag us all into a random beach trip like it was the most normal thing in the world.

He was rich so that wasn't a problem to him at all.

Me: I didn’t say anything. But fine. I’m in.

Logan replied with a heart emoji. I stared at it for a while, smiling like an idiot, before finally putting my phone away.

The next morning came so fast. Charlotte picked me up, blasting music with the windows down.

"Are you ready to tan and gossip about everything and pretend we don't have responsibilities?" she grinned.

"Born ready," I laughed.

  • Against the rules    I Came Back For You

    Logan's POVThe elevator dinged, as I stepped out into the sleek, glass walled office that had become my battlefield these past few weeks. I wasn’t expecting to see Nate here of all people leaning casually against Ava’s desk, flashing that same stupid grin I remembered from two years ago. Fork Boy.What the fuck was he doing here?!He hadn’t changed much. Still smug, still thinking he's too familiar with Ava. And she was smiling. That same reserved smile she used to give me before I’d pull her into my arms and kiss it away. Now it was his to earn, apparently.Something dark twisted in my chest.I walked forward slowly, each step measured. Nate noticed me first, his eyes narrowing with recognition.“Logan,” he said, casually, like we were friends. Like he didn’t know how badly I wanted to deck him.I ignored the greeting and looked straight at Ava. Her smile dropped. She stood straighter, defensive already. Good. Maybe she could feel what was coming.“You’re a client now?” I asked Na

  • Against the rules    Work on it

    Ava’s POVLogan’s voice broke the heavy silence. “Ava, wait… we need to talk.”My hands trembled slightly, and I took a small step back, my heart racing in a way that wasn’t excitement or happiness. It was fear,confusion,pain I hadn’t fully allowed myself to feel until now.“No,” I whispered, shaking my head. “There’s nothing to say.”He frowned, his usual calm and commanding presence flickering with vulnerability I hadn’t expected. “I didn’t mean to disappear on you. I had my reasons—I…”I cut him off, voice barely steady but firm. “Two years, Logan. You left without a word, without even saying goodbye properly. You don’t get to just show up and expect everything to be okay.”His jaw tightened, and I saw the conflict in his eyes. “I wanted to protect you.”“Protect me?” I laughed bitterly. “By vanishing? By leaving me in the dark while everything fell apart?”Tears pricked at my eyes, but I blinked them away. I wasn’t ready to break down here, not now.Logan took a step forward, his

  • Against the rules    The Man I couldn't Forget

    ♣Ava’s POV♣I woke up with that same tight feeling in my chest, the one that never really went away. By the time I reached the bakery, the shelves were already filled with pastries neatly arranged, warm, and familiar. I kept my hands busy, moving trays and wiping counters, hoping the routine would quiet the thoughts in my mind that refused to let go.I wiped down the counter again, trying to focus on the task rather than the gnawing silence inside me.So much time had passed, but it still felt like I was waiting for something or someone that might never come.I pushed the thought away and forced a smile when a customer approached the counter. “Good morning! What can I get for you today?”After serving the few regulars who drifted in, the shop settled into a silence. I took a deep breath and glanced out the window at the sleepy street beyond. The city was still waking up, but for me, every day felt like a slow journey to the unknown .Just then, the familiar jingle of the doorbell m

  • Against the rules    Two years of memories

    ♣Ava POV♣ (Two Years Later)The city I lived in now was nothing like Westbridge. It didn’t have the same old buildings or that annoying sounds in the library steps. It was busier, colder, and the sky was almost always cloudy , a perfect match for how I’d felt for the last two years.I stood in the café I now worked at, wiping down a table as rain tapped against the windowpane. Another rainy day,another quiet shift ,another memory of him.Logan Carter.Some days, I still expected him to walk through the door with that same cocky grin, messed-up hair, a dumb joke ready on his lips. But he never did. He never would.He was gone.Not officially because there was never a death certificate,no headlines,no funeral. Just... gone. Like he vanished with the wind the night the Carter empire fell.I only know about his father's death,but I haven't heard from him or Levi ever since they disappeared.My fingers tightened around the rag.“Still thinking about him?” Charlotte’s voice pulled me back.

  • Against the rules    Rest In Peace, Bastard

    Logan POV**It was a Thursday. The rain was endless, drumming on the rooftop of the penthouse. I stood by the window, watching the city lights flicker through the fog, waiting for my father.He came in, his tie was loose, anger simmering in his eyes.“The Italians pulled out,” he snapped. “Said they don’t want to deal with someone who can’t protect his own house.”I stayed quiet,I just waited to see where this conversation was going.He poured himself a drink, his hand shaking. “Something’s wrong, Logan. Someone’s coming for me.”“ Or…someone already has.”He paused the glass halfway to his lips. He turned slowly, his eyes narrowing.“What did you say?”I stepped forward. “I said... someone already has.”The silence between us was sickening.“What the fuck are you talking about?”I took out the burner phone,the one with all the pictures. All the proof. I tossed it on the table. It slid across the polished wood and stopped inches from his hand.He picked it up,clicked it open and scro

  • Against the rules    See You Crumbling, Carter

    Logan's pov The casino reeked of smoke and regret. Dust hung in the air like ghosts of gamblers past, and the slot machines stood silent, their blinking lights long dead. I sat across from Rafa Moretti at a cracked poker table, the green felt stained with old whiskey and blood."You're serious about this?" he asked, swirling the amber liquor in his glass. "Taking down your old man?"I nodded. "Every inch of him. His empire. His lies. I want it all gone."He leaned back, examining me like I was a wild card he couldn’t quite read. "You got a plan, Carter's boy? Or are you just running on revenge and adrenaline?""I’ve got a plan. I’ve spent months watching, studying. I know his weak links, his distribution routes, his shell companies. I have everything."Rafa raised a brow. "Including leverage?"I hesitated.Then I slid the notebook across the table.He flipped through it—pages of surveillance photos, coded names, offshore accounts. His smirk faltered. "Damn. You really did your homewo
