she slammed me against the bed, pinning me firmly beneath him. His face, annoyingly handsome to the point of Logan's response to my excuse of "blacking out" was swift and merciless- being undali, loomed inches from mine "Blacked out, huh?" His voice dipped low, teasing, with a slight upward lift at the end
The shees weight of his presence was overwhelming. I felt cometed, utterly defenseless under his piercing gaze "T-yeah,"1 stammered, trying to sound convincing "I don't remember a thing"
Hipcurled into a smick, his eyes glinting with mischief. "Do you want me to help you for your memory?"
As his face inched closer, I swallowed hard. "No need Really, no need th, maybe you should, you know, get off me? You're... kinda heavy..."
Before I could finish, his lips crushed against mine, silencing me with a kiss that was as intense as it was unrelenting. It was a brazen, unapologetic claim that left me breathless and dazed. When he finally pulled away, he took a deep breath and sat up. I stared at his rigid, well-built back and, despite the situation, couldn't help but admire how annoyingly perfect he looked Feeling bold, I offered some unsolicited advice.
"Why do you do this to yourself?" I teased. "Every time you kiss me, you're the one who ends up Suffering
I didn't get to finish. Logan turned back, his susia k still intact, and his gaze shut me up faster than words even could.
With that, he walked into the bathroom, and soon, I heard the sound of running water. My face burned as 1 threw on a jacket and bolted from the room. Staying in close quarters with Logan was like playing with fire-Eddn't trust myself not to get burned The aftermath of my new position at Linden Group hit quickly.
Soling through Elijah's Twitter, I stumbled upon a post of him and Jocelyn flaunting their relationship for the first time. The comments section was a mess, with people reading them apart. It was comforting to see that most netizens had their moral compass intact. For some reason, Elijah decided to jump into the tray and respond to the criticism himself.
His reply read. "The divorce between and is already in court, What's wrong with being with the person love? She's moved on too, hasn't she?"
The comments were relentless, "She ended one relationship before starting another. What about you? Cheating while married and flaunting it? Disgusting"
Elijah shot back, "Disgusting? What's it got to do with you?
Another netizen replied, both are a scumbag and homewrecker-a match made in hell Please, just stay out of society."
Elijah dapped back. Thanks for the Messings. We'll stay together forever!TM
1 stated at try seen, stunned Elijah's temper tantrum was uneal. He had to be livid-there was no other reason he'd pick this moment to go public with Jocelyn, argue with strangers ordine, and basically dig his own glave, Was this all to spilte me!
"ar's absolutely to spite you," Willie confirmed over coffee, not missing a bear "Honestly, he's so immature. Does he really think posting some egy pictures with Jocelyn is going to break your resolve? I mean, come. The guy's an idioc Tremained silent

Watie sipped her coffee elegantly, then added, "It's not surprising, though. His reputation's already in tatters, and he's out of moves. This is probably his last-ditch effort to get a reaction put of you Iturned to her. "Do you really think so

She smiled knowingly. "Men are dumb when it comes to emotions. They only have a few tricks up their sleeve, and that's it. I've yet to meet a man who's truly smooth in handling relationships I thought for a moment and sently added that Norman was the exception.
Thinking of Norman, I shot him a quick message. As expected, his response was calm and nonchalant, "Don't worry,
orry, Ariana. I've already got pocelyn handled. Sit right and wait for the show."
I peplied, "Handled Really? She and Elijah just went public. It feels like they'll be announcing a wedding any day now."
He sent back a laughing emoji, followed by a chat screenshot. I opsed it and stared at the screen, my expression wisting into something between shock and disbelief
Jocelyn was venting to Logan in the chat, complaining tearfully, "Elijas forced me to go public. I can tell he's still in love with Ariana. He's just using me as a pawn. We haven't men had real feelings for each other in years!TM She went on to say that she felt like nothing more than a tool in Elijah's scheme.
