LOGAN'S POV

“Let’s have breakfast,” I uttered, staring at Amaya, who also stared back.

Why is she looking at me like that? Is she doubting my generosity?

“It’s not a choice, it’s an order. You must have breakfast.” I muttered, snapping her out of her thoughts. She slowly sat on the bed, unable to stop gazing at me. I didn’t find it uncomfortable—I knew exactly how shocked she must have felt. The same person who made her lick spilled coffee is now calling her for breakfast.

Yeah, it happens. I have a master’s degree in confusion. I graduated as the best student. Confusion is something I can cause freely.

“Did you make breakfast?” Amaya asked in her usual soft, timid voice.

“Who else would make it? Nova isn’t at home. Come downstairs,” I replied, shutting the door before walking back to the dining room. I sat on the chair, impatiently waiting for Amaya.

After a few minutes, she appeared, her movements deliberate as she sat far away from me. I chuckled. Did I become a devil overnight? I

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 13: Dragged To Doom

    AMAYA'S POVI stared at my laptop screen; I pressed my lips together, preventing myself from laughing. I clicked on input to finish the design on my latest masterpiece—Logan in a pink bunny costume. It was absurd, completely ridiculous. I couldn't help but laugh; maybe it was the oversized ears or the tiny carrot he held like some kind of CEO-approved weapon. Either way, the sight of it makes me release a chuckle. A mocking one.If Logan ever saw this, he’d probably throw me out of the window.Not that I cared. He already forced me to have breakfast this morning.My smile faded as I leaned back against the pillow, my arms crossed. Did he really think I’d just eat whatever he served me? After everything he had done? After making me lick coffee off the floor like a slave? No way.I ate the food, pretended to enjoy it, and then ran straight to my room to vomit it all out. Trusting Logan was like trusting a lion to be vegan—it just wasn’t happening.Still, even if I didn’t trust him and

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 14: Defeat

    LOGAN’S POV I walked to my room to change my dress. I never knew she was a designer. The picture of me that she was designing was hilarious, but it represents talent.Although I did not appreciate whatever talent she is claiming to have. Instead of appreciating her, I want to crush her self-esteem and make her doubt herself in what she is doing. I smirked at my own devilish thoughts.As I pulled off my jacket, my phone rang, piercing the silence in the room. It was Maxon; I knew what he wanted to say. He wants to ask me why I wasn’t at work; he must have found it confusing since I am not the type of man to put work aside, even if it’s the weekend.Picking up the call, Maxon’s voice rang through the room. “Where the heck are you? Are you not feeling well?” He asked, his tone devoid of genuine concern.I took off my T-shirt. “I am busy with my wife.” His sarcastic laughter echoed through the speaker. His reaction earned a smirk from me, but I continued getting dressed. “You’re fallin

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 15: The Deadly Mistake

    Amaya’s POV"Hug me, Amaya. It’s an order!"I froze.Did I hear that right?I replayed his words in my head, searching for another meaning, but there wasn’t one. He wanted me to hug him. Me? He wants my arms around him, the man who had tormented me since the day we met.Was this some kind of joke? A trap?I swallowed hard when I saw the glare in his eyes. No, he was serious.If he needed comfort, why couldn’t he just hug me instead of ordering me to do it?But what choice did I have?Taking a slow breath, I hesitantly lifted my arms and wrapped them around his back, feeling his head rest against my shoulder.This feels… surreal.I was actually hugging Logan.A part of me wanted to believe my plan was working, that maybe I was breaking through his icy walls. But I knew better. He wasn’t softening—he was just scared.Still, I let myself enjoy the moment. It wouldn’t last. Any second now, the cold, arrogant Logan would return.And just like that, the bus came to a stop.Logan’s head sn

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 16: She Is Alfred Daughter

    LOGAN'S POV I was about to close my eyes when loud noises erupted from the living room downstairs. What the hell was happening? I sat up, trying not to fall as dizziness washed over me. I still felt a little lightheaded—I shouldn’t have ridden that cabin. Amaya won this round, but this would be the last time she ever won in her life. I could still recall her laughter in the car when she volunteered to take me into the mansion. The way she smiled… She must be having fun. I opened the door and stepped outside. Now, I could clearly hear the heated argument downstairs. Two familiar voices, both screaming. My mother. And Amaya? I rushed down the stairs, ignoring the weakness in my legs. The moment my gaze landed on the scene before me, my suspicions were confirmed—Beatrice and Amaya were pulling each other’s hair. “Shit!” I mumbled under my breath. “What the heck is going on here!” I yelled. They immediately let go of each other, both panting heavily. Their hai

    AMAYA'S POV "I shouldn’t have done that."The thought kept echoing in my head, louder than Beatrice’s cruel words.Her voice had been like poison, seeping into my mind, twisting everything I believed about myself.Alfred’s daughter! She spat it like an insult, as if my very existence was disgusting. As if I had no right to even breathe in this house.I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms. Why had I even argued with her? Even if she wasn't Logan's mother—she'd still be someone I shouldn't have cross path with. The fact that she knew Logan, I should have feared her. But I didn’t and complicate more issues. Now, she will be staying with us, the unjust treatment will be multipled in the number of my age.Regret washed over me like ice. What had I done?In my remorseful moment, Logan appeared. I had brace myself up for his usual yells and insult, and even order me to go back inside and remind me of my place. Instead, he sat beside me in the garden, his voice calm as he as

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 18: Desire or Command

    LOGAN'S POVI took in the scene before me, my mouth dropping in shock."Whoa! Our Amaya certainly is full of surprises," I exclaimed, clapping my hands dramatically.She quickly grabbed a towel, about to cover herself, but I snatched it from her grip, dropping it to the floor with a smirk."What's going on?" Amaya dazedly mumbled, her face flushed in embarrassment."Aren't couples supposed to do this? Why aren't we?" I teased, moving closer.She swallowed hard, avoiding my gaze as her eyes averted to the floor. Her arms clutched her chest, but it did little to hide her—round, perky, tempting bøøbs.I stared longer than I should have. Just as I was about to lose control, I grabbed the towel from the floor and draped it over her shoulders.“Dress up, Amaya.” I winked before walking away.I could feel her scowl burning into my back, but I didn't care. If I turned around now, I'd surely do something I'd regret.As I descended the stairs, my mother's words echoed in my head, and I couldn't

    AMAYA'S POVI sat on the bed weakly as Logan left the room.Did he just see my nakedness?No. No. No.He was staring at me. He even collected the towel from me.He saw it. Everything."Arrgh!" I screamed, grabbing a pillow. I hurled it toward the door.Logan’s mother.I gasped, covering my mouth with my palm. The reckless human-being award goes to me. What if Logan's mother heard me scream and decided to cut my hair bald?I need to be careful. Especially since his mother is here with us.I sighed, trying to push the thought of Logan’s lingering stare out of my head, but it refused to fade. The way he had looked at me... he seemed lost.I thought he was the one who should be tempted by my body, but I was the one left in shock. His eyes... those eyes of his looked so dark and unreadable, yet they carried a strange intensity."Stop this. He is your enemy," I muttered to myself, shaking my head.I needed to get Logan out of my thoughts.Walking over to the closet, I scanned through the d

    LOGAN’S POV“Okay, sir,” Amaya responded again, and I almost laughed, but I controlled myself. I couldn’t burst out laughing in front of her. I had to keep my composure.I was surprised that such a simple word—"sir"—amused me. Maybe it was the way she said it, overly dramatic. But why did it make me feel better?I should be angry. My mother really tested my patience today. If I had lost control, I might have killed her.I can’t believe she’s been trailing me all this time. She has some crazy informants feeding her information about my whereabouts.And I’m sure she’s not using humans to track me. It has to be some high-tech surveillance—some insane scientist’s invention. If it were a human following me, I would’ve sensed it long ago.I clearly told her to stop spying on me. But her response made me regret ever having her as a mother.She told me to sleep with Amaya, and if I did, she’d stop watching me.What kind of mother forces her grown son into something like that?I already told h

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 36: Shattered Affection

    LOGAN'S POVAfter Amaya indirectly sent me out of the room following our kiss, I wanted to leave. I wanted to cut off any feelings I had for her, to end everything. But my heart kept drawing me back.I know I'm a disgrace—to my mother, to my father, to myself. But I can’t restrain myself from chasing what my heart has already chosen.The ringing of my phone snapped me back to reality. I reached into my pocket and answered it, stepping a few paces away from Amaya’s door.It was Ethan.“Your mother posted on Instagram. How could you let a sick woman go out alone?” he snapped, concern lacing his voice.“My mum is unstoppable. You know her. Let her do whatever she wants,” I replied, my voice devoid of emotion.“Have you checked the files I sent?”“I’ll look at them tomorrow.”“My regards to Amaya. I’ll stop by tomorrow to see her,” Ethan added.I hung up before he could say more.It was the dullest conversation I’d had with Ethan. I was the one breaking the flow—and it was because my mind

    AMAYA'S POVI sat in silence, lost in thought, my eyes fixed on the wall as if it held answers. The stillness wrapped around me like a heavy blanket—until the door creaked open, snapping me out of my daze.Logan walked in.I blinked in confusion. What is he doing here? I thought he already left.“Logan? What are you—”Before I could finish, he crossed the room in a few strides. His hand gripped the side of my neck—firm, not harsh—and then his lips crushed against mine.My breath hitched. The world seemed to stop. Time froze as the unthinkable happened.I should have pulled away. I should have yelled, reminded him this wasn’t part of our story, that we weren't meant to fall into this.But I didn’t.My eyes fluttered closed.And I kissed him back.My fingers found the back of his neck, tangling in his hair, pulling him closer like I’d been starved for this moment. The kiss deepened—intense, desperate, and raw. Everything we had buried beneath layers of silence now ignited between us.He

    LOGAN'S POVAs I walked along the hallway, the world around me faded into a distant hum.The nurses passed by, their greetings falling flat—like echoes in a tunnel. I nodded absently, but I couldn’t hear them. Not really. Their voices bounced off sterile white walls, lost in the storm inside my head.I used to want her to feel it—the burden, the shame, the sins of her father. I wanted her to carry that weight like chains around her delicate neck.But now?Now I just want to protect her from it. All of it. Every ugly truth. Every sharp edge of the past. I want her to be untouched. Unbothered. Whole.But I’ve broken her.And the worst part? I miss the version of her I destroyed.Every step I took down that corridor felt heavier than the last. The floor swayed beneath me as if my guilt had weight—crushing, endless weight.She called this place peace. Said no one would stress her here. That I was her storm. And that her home… wasn't with me.My jaw clenched. I didn’t deserve to miss her,

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 33: Cursed Feelings

    AMAYA'S POVI jerked Eric's hand away from my shoulder the moment Logan entered. His arms were crossed, his expression unmistakably angry.I knew he would be upset—but why? Why does he even care? He’s never cared about me before, so why now? His sudden appearance took me by surprise, but what he said next completely shocked me."I don't think it's proper for a doctor to be this close. Get off my wife!"What? Did I hear that right? He just called me his wife—right in front of Eric.What was he plotting? What was he trying to initiate?He never called me his wife… well, maybe only when he wanted to make me feel small or humiliate me.But this? This didn't feel like one of those moments.Logan can be easily angered, but this was different. This wasn’t his usual cold detachment. Maybe… just maybe… he cares now.I sighed, my mind heavy with confusion. He keeps doing things that suggest feelings I don't want to admit he has. Like when I tried to poison myself—his reaction then, and now this

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 32: Caught In The Act

    LOGAN'S POVDriving into my mansion, I stepped out of the car after successfully parking. With a deep sigh, I entered the house, lost and overwhelmed by hopelessness.I thought I had moved past it. I thought I wasn’t blinded by revenge anymore, but the truth was, I was just lost—everything around me seemed blurred for a moment.After the conversation with Amaya, I remembered everything—how my father died. The past suddenly became clear. I had once believed my mother was overreacting, but now I realized I was the one who had been dense. The truth hit me harder than I expected. I wanted to lash out, to throw her off the bed, but something stopped me.There’s a weight in my chest, holding me back, and I’m not ready to embrace these feelings. It’s even difficult for me to admit the truth: I’m in love. Yes. I’m in love with Amaya.If I were still the ruthless, heartless man I used to be, I would’ve gone as far as asking a doctor to give her something that would make her feel worse, but now

  • The Billionaire Revenge Contract    Chapter 31: Alone

    AMAYA'S POVThe bossy, dominant man... is scared of injections?!"You’re scared?" I blurted out, surprise written all over my face.For a moment, I regretted asking—but then again, I needed to. How could he be scared of needles?Logan rolled his eyes. "I’d like to correct that. I wasn’t scared. I’m just not interested in what weak people take. I’m not like them." He hissed."I’m really sorry for the confusion, Mr. Wellington," the doctor apologized and finally left the room.I kept staring at Logan. His face was tight with irritation. Of course he’d be pissed. He carried himself like some untouchable god—yet here he was, scared of needles. I wasn’t even surprised at his response. I already knew he’d find a way to cover the crack."What did my mum say to you back then?" Logan asked, his tone calm, almost grim.He’s going there. The conversation I’m not ready for."Can we talk about this later?" I asked, silently praying he’d agree."Why should we postpone something this important? I’m

    AMAYA’S POVA smile escaped my lips as my gaze wandered around the flowers. I was in a garden, my white pleated skirt flowing as I twirled in the soft breeze. My feet danced on the grass like a child’s—light and free.Was this what heaven felt like?Peaceful. Beautiful. No pain.But just as I reached for a daisy, the colors began to fade. The sky turned gray. The scent of flowers vanished. A cold wind blew through the trees, and suddenly, I wasn’t dancing anymore. I was falling.Then, I heard it. A voice that reminded me I had no peace."Amaya!"That’s Logan.My cruel husband.A reminder of my cruel fate.I gasped, choking on the air as my eyes fluttered open. Everything was white. Too white. The beeping sound beside me was harsh—sharp, real.I blinked, trying to process where I was. Slowly, I moved my gaze around the socket and—bang!I got it.I wasn’t in Heaven.I was still alive. In the hospital.There’s really no end to this cruel life."Are you feeling okay?" I heard a masculine

    LOGAN'S POVThe headlights cut through the night, but they barely illuminated the road ahead. Everything felt like a blur—rushed, chaotic, frantic. The only thing clear was the woman beside me, slumped against the seat, her skin ashen, her breathing shallow and ragged.Amaya.No, not her. Not like this.My hands gripped the steering wheel so tightly my knuckles turned white, but it wasn’t enough to still the anxiety clawing at my chest.If I had called the ambulance, it would have taken longer. I'd rather spend less time and drive her myself.In five minutes, I drove into the hospital. I quickly stepped out of my car and carried her inside."An emergency? Here, please," a nurse directed, and I placed Amaya on a bed."Where the heck is the doctor? Are you just going to stay here and watch her die?" I snapped."The doctor is right..."The nurse paused when a man in a white lab coat entered. "I will assess the patient," he said and strode over to Amaya, checking her pulse."You have to l

    LOGAN'S POVI stared at Amaya's back as she walked out of the ward.I smirked, trying to control the tears threatening to burst out. I even sniffed, pretending to cry, but she only paused briefly before continuing to walk away.I don't even know why I wanted to cry. Maybe it’s because Beatrice is in the CPR room, fighting for her life all because I chose Amaya—or maybe it's because Amaya has been acting distant since she woke up. Why can’t I just order her to stop? I was practically begging for her attention with the way I sniffed.I sighed as my mum’s words replayed in my mind. “You are in love with her!”No.I can never be in love with a woman like Amaya. She deserves nothing but my wrath.I was jolted out of my thoughts when Maxon entered.I had called him earlier and explained everything to him. After my mum, he's the only one who understands me.I stared at him as he strode over."You’re really the worst. How could you do that to your mum, all because of a woman?" Maxon snapped,
