Mia POVI woke up feeling sore the next morning, my body ached all over, like I’d been hit by a tree. I tried to shift on the bed but then realized that a strong arm around my waist was restricting my movements. Logan.My back was pressed again his hard chest and I could feel his hot breath on my neck. “Lay still and let me hold you”He whispered, pulling me closer to him.“I like holding you and I know you like it too”He added and I raised my eyebrows.“And how would you know?”I asked, my tone a bit challenging and he chuckled.“What? You don’t like it?”He whispered and I gulped, afraid that if I said no, he would stop holding me.“Can’t talk now? my lady?”I swallowed hard, trying to find my voice.“No…Logan I…”I started to say but he interrupted me.“shh, just relax. Let me hold you for a bit longer”He whispered, his voice low and soothing and I smiled as I found myself melting in his arms.“You fit perfectly in my arms”He pointed out and I felt a blush rise to my cheeks.

Logan POV “He successfully infiltrated the castle and poisoned me, almost killing me” I revealed and Maya’s eyes went wide with fear and I chuckled. “I’m alive Maya, I didn’t die” I teased and she playfully hit my chest, sighing in relief. “What happened next?” She asked. “Nothing” I chuckled. “He disappeared again, going into hiding until two days ago at the banquet where he suddenly revealed himself” I added, my eyes narrowing. “And that’s the end of the story Maya” I concluded and Maya sighed. “Wow, that was quite a story” She commented, intrigued by the story and I smiled. “It’s late your highness, you should go to bed, it’s been a long day for you today” I reminded and she nodded, a yawn escaping her mouth and I chuckled. “You see, you’re tired, have some rest” “Goodnight Logan” She whispered, adjusting to a more comfortable position in my arms before closing her eyes to sleep. Not long enough, her snores filled the room and I couldn’t help
Logan POV The memories came flooding back and my mind raced back to the day Lucas had brought Eleanor home. The day was imprinted in my memory like a scar, fresh and raw as if it happened yesterday and I clenched my fists beside me.My mind replayed the scene and I felt like I could almost see the scene unfold before my eyes. Lucas’s bright smile, Eleanor’s laughter and my own happiness. Happy to see Lucas happy and in love. I had thought they’d make a great couple, that Eleanor was good for Lucas but it was all a facade, a lie.How could we be so blind? how could I be so blind?I clenched my fists beside me as I thought about how throughly she had deceived and manipulated us into believing her and I felt my anger resurfaced. The thought of it still burned within me and I couldn’t help but wonder what other lies she had told, what other secrets she had kept hidden behind that innocent face.“What happened next Logan?tell me”Maya’s tiny voice brought me back to reality and I took a
Mia’s POV By the time Logan had finally decided to get us out of the bed, I felt like my soul had slipped out of my body and entered heaven. He carried me and entered into the bath, helping me wash my body before bringing back to the room. Logan ordered the maids to bring food to our chambers and after we ate together, we went back to bed as I snuggled in his chest, feeling his warmth on my skin and his delicious scent filled my nostrils. He had the scent of earth and flowers on him. A scent that suited him perfectly and as I breathed it in, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. “Logan?” I whispered, my voice barely above a murmur and he hummed softly. “What is it my lady?” He asked, his deep voice sending shivers down my spine and I gulped. “Lucas…” I hesitated, my voice cracking from anxiety “What’s the story between you two?” I finally managed to ask, my eyes fixed on his face, watching to see if there was in his expression but it was the same as usual, unr
NOTE: READERS DISCRETION NEEDED, +18 Mia’s POV When I woke up the next morning, I found myself in the arms of Logan, my head resting on his chest. He was still fast asleep and I slowly raised my head to look at him only to be greeted by his breathtaking face. His hair was rough and messy with strands falling across his forehead and his lips which were slightly parted seemed to be inviting me to kiss him. I felt a flutter in my chest as I gazed at him, the urge to lean in and press my lips on him was almost overwhelming. For a moment, I just laid there, taking in the sight of him and feeling the warmth of his body. Even in his sleep, he still looked as breathtaking as ever and being in his arms felt just right. It felt like I was exactly where I was meant to be. Taking a deep breath, I gently shifted my position, trying not to wake him but as soon as I moved, his arms tightened around me, pulling me back to him and I froze. “Good morning” He whispered, his voice husky as h
Logan POV “ Aren’t you dying to know where your beloved wife is?” Lucas asked, and I could sense a hint of mockery in his voice. “Where’s she?” I growled and he laughed. “Bring her!” Lucas yelled and the sounds of footsteps echoed through the forest. I turned to see Maya dragged out and my heart sank as I took in the sight of her, my eyes widening in horror. Her wrists was bound with strong ropes and a gag was tied around her mouth. Her clothes were covered in blood and dirt and her eyes were filled with fear as she stared at me. “Maya” I whispered, reaching for her. “Let her go!” I snarled and Lucas chuckled. “You’re in no position to make demands Logan” He replied, taking a step closer to Maya. “You’re so weak Logan” Lucas sneered and grabbed Maya’s chin, forcing her to look up at him. “You can’t even save the people you care about” He added and I lost it. I lunged forward, fueled by rage but Lucas’s men grabbed me, holding me back. I struggled
