** * * * * Crystal’s POV * * * * *
The alarm clock rang, waking me up from sleep.
As usual I groaned angrily. I hate it when I have to wake up so early in the morning, but that’s the case with Saturday’s.
I need to be at Logan’s Castle by 8 a. m. and this alarm clock enjoys it whenever it disturbs my sleep. I am starting to think that the damn clock is jealous of the relationship I share with my bed.
I yawned and got down from the bed. Aidan was still fast asleep. I couldn’t help but admire his dark long eyebrows that were just above his chubby cheeks.
His cute dimples always disappear and only show up when he smiles. He also has a sharp jawline like Logan.
My little Aidan is growing taller everyday. I think he would be about two ft tall by now, because he is half the length of my bed.
The new house I rented was just a small, single room with two interconnecting doors.
One led to the kitchen while the other led to the bathroom.
It was the least I could afford.
I walked into the bathroom and peeled off my pajamas. As usual I checked my body out in the mirror and sighed.
Everything was perfect, apart from the scars on my tummy.
I remember the day I gave birth to Aidan. It was a horrible experience.
** * * * *
I didn’t have the strength to push out the baby the normal way, so the doctor had to choose a Cesarean method.
It’s been 3 years but the scars remain very visible, it’s always bothered me whenever I take off my clothes.
** ** **
I turned on the shower and as usual, cursed the damn cold water. We never get along and I decide to use it only when I’m in a hurry.
Yesterday’s event crossed my mind and I chuckled. It was so fun claiming to be Logan’s girlfriend, I caused a lot of drama at college.
But what would it feel like if I was really his girlfriend?
“Come on Crystal, don’t say such rubbish!” My inner woman scolded me.
I lathered my hair with soap and let its wet foam drip down my stomach.
I haven’t let any man come close to me after the Logan incident.
Although I had to face some humiliation in my step parent’s neighborhood as a single mother, it didn’t bother me at all. Aidan was my only consolation.
He’s the reason why I keep breathing.
After showering, I tied a towel around my small body and walked out to the room.
Aidan was still sleeping peacefully like a little adorable angel.
I quickly applied lotion and got dressed up in a pink gown, it was a bit glued to my body, and that made me feel uncomfortable but I didn’t have much time to select another attire.
I headed to the kitchen to microwave the food for breakfast
** * * * * *
I arrived at the castle a few minutes after 8 a. m.
The first person I met in the building after the gate man was Gina. she muttered a curse and walked past. I just chuckled.
I walked into Logan’s Chambers
** ** **
Logan’s chamber was built inform of a long corridor, with two doors on the Left.
The right side was sealed off with wood. The first door on the left was his bedroom.
It was very large and contained a king size bed, a large wardrobe and an interconnecting door to the bathroom.
It was decorated with shining lights, and his scent always filled the atmosphere.
The cottons in that room were a turquoise blue, while the wall was a mixture of blue and white.
He had a twenty-one inch LED TV hanging on the wall, from the little peep I have had of his bathroom.
It was very large with a big jacuzzi.
Sometimes when he’s absent-minded, I am tempted to go in there but I never got a chance.
I always wanted to see exactly what it looks like.
The other room in his chamber was his reading room. It was more like a home office to him, just like his bedroom, it was very large.
It had a reading table which held a high tech computer set for his work.
He also handled matters and paperworks relating to the pack there.
So far the only people allowed to go there are Blake and I.
Blake had permission to go there as his Beta, while I was allowed because of the nature of my work.
Sometimes I went there to clean it up, while sometimes I was sent to get something or the other and whenever I had nothing to do or maybe Logan was asleep, I would usually sneak in there to read some books on politics and business.
Those two topics were both confusing and interesting to me, but I tried to grab the little knowledge I could from the books.
Logan had walked in on me one day in the house office. I was terrified and thought he was going to be upset, but to my surprise he wasn’t.
He just asked me if I had interest in being a leader, since the book I was reading had to do with leadership.
I never answered that question because his phone rang at that moment and he had to leave.
** * * * *
I knocked on his bedroom door but there was no response, after two minutes I pushed the door open and walked in.
There was no one in the room. I could see there were dirty clothes on his bed, so I went to pick them up and take them to Gina.
Being Alpha Logan’s personal maid and assistant gave me the opportunity to get back at Gina.
There is no doubt she would quit someday when she can’t stand me anymore.
I got to the bed and just as I was about to pick the clothes, I heard the creaking sound of the bathroom door as it opened.
I was startled and turned around immediately only to see Logan.
He was cladded in A bathrobe that revealed his chest. My heart flipped at the sight of that.
I turned around and quickly faced the large bed with my back to him.
What if he is naked under the robe.
” I am sorry Logan, I knocked but there was no response so I came in to get your dirty clothes” I explained that in a sputter of words.
I didn’t realize I was rattling nervously.
He didn’t reply, I just heard his footsteps as he walked closer to me.
I could perceive the scent of his bath soap which means he was close to me.
Then I felt his hand move my hair backwards from behind, and my body shuddered.
“Lo… lo… Logan” I stuttered.
I could feel his breath very close to my neck, my heart had already stepped on the tracks.
What is he doing?
“I recognise you Crystal and I remember the night we spent together”
His words made my body shiver and my heart skipped a few beats.
Does he remember me?
Oh no!!
My worst nightmare has come true. What is he going to do to me now?
I am done for!!
