All Chapters of Carter: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

I leaned my head onto his chest, breathing in his scent. I put my arms under his jacket and wrapped them around his waist. He followed my lead and held me tight for a few minutes before pulling out of my hold and looking at me. “What is it?” “I didn’t realise exactly how much I have missed you.” I felt a pang of guilt rising inside as I told my truth. I did really like Brax, but the hold and connection I had with Logan was indefinable and undeniable. He pulled me back into his arms and held me for a little longer. I wanted to fall asleep in his arms, but I knew I couldn’t “Logan,” I said pulling back. “I need to know why you walked away.” “I didn’t want to.” “I know, but I need to know why.” He sighed heavily. “We should sit down for this.” I nodded and followed him inside. The ride in the elevator was enough to feel the heavy air between us. As the doors opened into the penthouse, I gasped at the size. It was so open and airy; I could imagine the amount of light that wou

I found myself at home in bed crying myself to sleep. Logan was blowing my phone up after I had run out on him. How could one person make me feel so happy and so sad at the same time? I was on a rollercoaster ride with Logan. My only saving grace right now was the fact that Logan did not know where I lived. I was sure if he really wanted to know he would probably flex the rules and find out through his job one way or another. For now, I just had to hope he didn’t and would respect me enough not to do that. I decided to turn my phone off completely. The following morning after a restless night I turned my phone back on and watched the notifications start to appear. One of the messages from Logan was saying he had read the letter. Obviously, my frustration and anger at him, along with the fact I ripped the letter up must have triggered him enough to piece it back together and read it. It was not something I could think about then and I would need to discuss with Logan at some point. I

“Miss Garrison.” He pushed himself up and kissed my cheek softly. “Logan, to what do I owe this pleasure?” “I see you have an audience up there,” he nodded towards the window. “More like you have a fan base up there.” He smirked and made quick strides around the car to open my door. He took my bag from me and put that into the boot of the car before getting in. He started the car and the engine roared to life. He made quick work of getting out onto the road and into the countryside. “Where are we going?” “I found a beautiful little restaurant; I thought I would take you for dinner and we could discuss a few things.” He was making me feel nervous. We pulled up at a little restaurant right outside of town. The place was definitely a hidden gem. We were escorted to our table and given menus. A waitress returned shortly afterwards, taking our drinks request. Logan made quick work of the order. Once our drinks arrived Logan made quick work of making a toast to us. “A little pr

Dreams were filled with Logan at first until my mind remembered Brax. I woke up the following morning feeling more confused than ever. The next few days I took time for myself to try and clear my head. Keeping in contact with messages here and there between them both. It had been almost a week since Logan had arrived, and I was only becoming more confused. Was I being naive, could a decision be made fairly? I came to the conclusion that a decision needed to be made and the only way to do that was by having one more date with both of them. I already had a date with Brax at the club, so I messaged Logan and asked him to organise a date for Saturday afternoon. I managed to finish work a little early on Friday and was home and ready for the club within a few hours. Brax picked me up around 6pm and we went for a meal first. The meal was like a normal date. Conversation flowed easily about our week, the drinks and food were great and overall, it was just a normal meal date. From there w

As we arrived Logan gave my hand a gentle squeeze, breaking me out of my own head. We were standing in front of a huge building. My eyes followed up the front to the sign above the enormous front double doors. “Blue lagoon!” I struggled to contain my excitement. We were standing in front of the new aquarium that had opened as I arrived home. I had wanted to visit this place since being back, but I had not found time or the person to go with. Logan watched me beaming with excitement. “I chose well?” He asked cautiously. “It’s perfect.” He led the way as we walked in. He had preordered tickets, so he gave his name to the desk. The girl handed over two tickets along with some lanyards. I looked at them for a moment, taking in the words on them. VIP access, meet and greet, feeding time. My heart skipped a beat as I looked at Logan. He smiled softly at me, and I squeezed his hand with a thank you. We walked through the entrance into the lobby where we had several options f
