Alle Kapitel von Chasing Back What's Mine : Kapitel 31 – Kapitel 40

I am at a loss for words as he corners me, unsure of how to respond. He walks slowly toward me, looking at me as if I’m the only girl that matters.“I know I haven’t been the best at showing my emotions,” he says, his eyes never leaving mine. “But I want you to know that I care about you deeply and I want us to last.”My heart skips a beat at his words. Logan isn't the type to display his emotions easily, but when he does, it feels genuine. Despite my doubts about his understanding of love, his words squeeze a part of my heart tight in my chest.I nod, but he gently brings his lips closer to my ear. He nibbles on it and says in a low, intense whisper, “Gosh, I can’t get you out of my head. Feel this,” he says, pressing against me, “It throbs for you every time I think about you.”His words make my knees weak. I try to be cautious, resisting his allure, but it’s nearly impossible not to fall for this gorgeous man straddling me on his big bed. He moves his lips to mine, kissing me slow

His eyes are locked on me, and after his eyes roam my body, I feel my panties get wet. Gosh, this man has a way of eliciting reactions from my core.He steps closer with each determined stride, and my heart pounds with each step he takes. This feeling goes beyond the contract I signed with him, but I'll be damned if I don’t enjoy it while it lasts. He is down the steps now, my eyes locked on him, anticipating his next move.He brings me closer, my front colliding with his body. My knees turn to jelly from the effect Logan has on me. His eyes roam my face as he brings my lips to his and licks them in the most sexual way in a kiss. I feel weak in my knees as I relish the joy of the kiss, not minding if my lipstick will be smeared.A cough from behind startles us, and I place my hand on his chest. That seems to bring him back to reality as he releases his lips from mine and steps back, looking deep into my eyes. The feeling of his eyes on me is out of this world."Come on, love birds

But before I can turn around, Logan grips my hand firmly. I wince in pain. "Logan, you are hurting me," I hissed.But he remained silent. Instead, he turns me around, and my breasts collide with his chest. I notice his body stiffen from the effect of my touch, and my own body responds with tingling sensations erupting around me.We stare at each other for what feels like forever. His mouth is close to my ear. "You will follow my every command and know your place. You will be my wife in every sense of the word. You will fulfill your duty by producing an heir. And remember, no falling in love," he says, gripping my hands lightly.My heart pounds in my chest. His breath is warm against my ear, sending shivers through my veins. He releases my hands, but his words leave a lasting impact on me.Logan steps back, his eyes dark and intense, never leaving mine. Fear and defiance boil inside me, but I know better than to challenge him now. I swallow hard, trying to steady my racing heart and

I am all alone in the house and wonder where everyone has gone. I make my way through the kitchen to eat lunch. The silence is unnerving. I remember leaving everyone in the living room after breakfast.Earlier, I had opted to go to the swimming pool to clear my head. My heart sinks in my chest when I see Logan and Samantha swimming together. They seem so happy.Logan's eyes lock onto Samantha's as they kiss passionately. It confirms that the kiss at the gala wasn't a mistake, but something that will continue for a long time.Logan sits by the pool with his legs in the water. Samantha is between his legs, her neck stretched up as she gazes into Logan's eyes. Logan's eyes are full of smiles as he draws her lips to his.Asher catches me staring at them. I don't want to hear anything he has to say because he knows about Logan and Samantha and still encourages me to pursue my feelings for Logan.I know by now I should have sucked it up and not acted on my feelings for him."Nadine," he cal

I step out of the room, emotions I can't put into words flood over me. The corridor is quiet, but the soft hum of the hospital machinery fills the air. It's getting late, and I'm not usually one to spend late hours outside, but a thought strikes me. I need to let loose. "Fuck my life," I mutter to myself as I spot a bar just a few steps away. My legs move on their own, carrying me into the bar.Walking into the bar, I notice it’s crowded. Jeez, and it’s not even Friday yet. I thought people came to unwind mostly on weekends. For fuck’s sake, it’s just Tuesday.The music is so loud I can feel the beat in my chest as I move through the throng of people. "Girl, this is not my typical definition of fun," I think to myself. "What then is your definition of fun?" a voice chides me in my head. "Whatever," I reply to the voice and walk over to the bar. The bartender notices me.“Hey, pretty, what’s up? Are you new here? I haven’t seen this face before.”I roll my eyes at him. "How come yo
