Logan’s POV

The salon was a sanctuary of power, dressed in dark wood, soft leather, and hushed voices. It reeked of exclusivity—the kind of place where the rich and influential spoke in careful riddles, where deals were sealed with a knowing glance rather than a contract. The scent of expensive cologne lingered in the air, blending with the sharp notes of aged whiskey as servers moved soundlessly between the high-backed chairs, refilling glasses that never stayed empty for long.

I leaned back, fingers resting lightly around the rim of my glass as I studied the woman sitting across from me.

Emily. The mayor’s daughter.

She was as polished as the setting around her, her blonde hair swept back in a perfect chignon, her manicured fingers gliding absentmindedly over the rim of her wine glass. But behind that poised exterior was a mind sharpened by politics, raised among men who dealt in power like currency. She wasn’t just here for casual conversation. She was here to assess me.

  • Not perfect lover   Chapter 73

    Ava’s POVOliver sat across from me, his brow furrowed as he leaned forward. The dim light of the restaurant cast shadows along the lines of his face."What was that about?" he demanded, his voice low but edged with curiosity.I tucked my phone away, keeping my expression calm. "Logan. He’s suspicious, but I can handle it. I managed to get here without his bodyguards t

  • Not perfect lover   Chapter 72

    Ava’s POVThe soft hum of the morning filtered through the curtains, a pale winter light casting long shadows across the bedroom. I woke before the alarm, the weight of the day already pressing against my chest. But today, something felt different.I slipped out of bed, and went to the kitchen. The kitchen was quiet as I moved through it, the faint chill from the marble counters biting at my fingertips. Breakfast. Something simple, something thoughtful. He wouldn't expect it, which made it all the more perfect. Pancakes,

  • Not perfect lover   Chapter 71

    Ava’s POVThe house felt hollow.The moment we stepped inside, the echo of our footsteps filled the empty space. Boxes lined the walls, stacked neatly, labeled in black marker. It didn’t feel like home anymore. Maybe it never truly had.I exhaled slowly, ignoring the knot tightening in my chest.Logan walked ahead, surveying the packed-up house with the air of a man checking something off a list. Meanwhile, I let my fingers trail over the familiar surfaces, absorbing what little warmth was left in this place.My eyes landed on a half-open box near the couch. Without thinking, I reached inside and pulled out a small, velvet-wrapped package.Daniel’s gift.I had tucked it away weeks ago, unable to bring myself to open it. Even now, my fingers hesitated over the wrapping, the weight of memories pressing down on me.Then, beneath it, I noticed the edge of something familiar—a leather-bound album.I froze.The photo album.My breath caught as I pulled it out, the weight of it heavier than

  • Not perfect lover   Chapter 70

    Ava’s POVIt had been a long time since we'd talked face to face like this.Since Zara had moved to another city for her dream job, and I buried myself in my own career, we swore we would keep in touch. But life had a way of slipping between us.Deadlines. Late nights. Missed calls that turned into forgotten ones. At first, it was easy to blame busy schedules, but then weeks turned into months, and our conversations dwindled to nothing more than occasional “Hope you’re doing well” messages.Now, as she stirred her latte, her eyes scanning me like she was trying to remember every detail she had missed, I felt that distance like a physical thing between us.“You cut your hair,” she finally said, her lips curling into a small smile.I tucked a stray strand behind my ear. “Yeah. A while ago.”“It looks good.”“You look good too. Work treating you okay?”“Busy, as usual. You know how it is.”I nodded because I did. Because “busy” had been my excuse too.Except it had. And everything was d

  • Not perfect lover   Chapter 69

    Ava’s POVThree years ago, Logan looked me in the eyes and told me my idea was ridiculous. He had dismissed it so easily, so carelessly, as if my dreams were nothing more than fleeting thoughts, something to be brushed aside. I had believed him back then. Believed that I had been foolish to want something more, that he knew best.But I wasn’t that girl anymore.I forced my hands to remain steady as I pushed my anger deep down, locking it away behind a carefully composed expression. I wouldn’t let him see how much his presence still rattled me.Logan set his drink down and looked straight at me. "I'm leaving on December 30."I blinked. I hadn’t asked—I hadn’t even thought about his schedule. And really, I should have been happy. The thought of him being gone should have felt like a relief.I exhaled slowly, the relief settling over me like a fragile shield. Soon, he would be gone. The idea of being away from Logan should have been a good thing.But before I could fully process that sma

  • Not perfect lover   Chapter 68

    Ava’s POVBack at Logan’s house, I let out a deep sigh, feeling the exhaustion settle into my bones. The parade had been overwhelming—the crowd, the cameras, the unexpected moment with Logan. My mind was still a tangled mess of emotions, but at least now, in the quiet of his home, I could finally breathe.Or so I thought.“The maid took the day off,” Logan announced casually as he tossed his keys onto the kitchen counter.I blinked. “Okay…?”“So, we’re making dinner.”I nearly choked. “We?”Logan shot me an amused look. “What? You think I can’t cook?”I folded my arms. “Can you?”There was a brief pause—just long enough to confirm my suspicions—before he shrugged. “I’ve learned the basics.”I narrowed my eyes. “Which means…?”“I won’t burn the house down.”Not exactly reassuring.Seeing my doubt, Logan leaned against the counter with a smirk. “You don’t have to just stand there and judge, you know. You can help.”I scoffed. “I will help. Someone has to make sure we don’t end up with a
