** * * * * Logan’s POV * * * * *
I walked out of the bathroom and met Crystal in the bedroom. She was putting on a pink, one hand strap gown.
I have noticed that the pink color is her favorite, she’s always on pink.
She turned around and then looked away the moment she saw me.
My eyes darted to her neck and for some weird reason, I felt my gum itch. I was thinking of things that were improper to think of.
I went closer to her and tucked the few strands of hair that were on her face to the back. They were smooth and silky to my touch.
The memories of that night we spent came flashing back in my head.
I can’t keep pretending, I should tell her the truth and also hear what she has to say about that night.
If she was not after my money or the position of Luna, then why did she seduce me? And how did she do it?
“Lo… lo… Logan” she stuttered.
She looked scared as my fingers made contact with her neck.
“I recognise you Crystal and I vividly remember the night we spent together” I confessed
She just stood there shivering.
“Look at me Crystal” I ordered in a plain voice.
She hesitated for a while then turned to face me.
Her cheeks had gone pale, there was a red tinge on both cheeks.
“Logan… What… What are you talking about?” she asked.
I ran my fingers slowly through her face, and she looked downwards.
Even though she was trying to pretend, I could see the truth clearly visible in her eyes, she remembers.
“You know what I’m talking about Crystal, don’t deny it” I said in a whisper
“Alright… Yes I remember that night, but you are…”
“What method did you use on me?” I asked, cutting her words short.
She looked up at me and I could see she was hurt, there was pain in her eyes, but what was it all about?
“Answer me Crystal” I said and held her shoulders, she shuddered nervously.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about Logan, you were there three years ago on that very night, Yes I don’t understand why I couldn’t stop myself from getting intimate with you, I just felt this pull, this desire that I couldn’t fight, I wanted to…” she paused and looked down again.
I held her chin and raised her face, the look in her eyes said her words were true, but why should I believe her?
The only people that experience something similar to what she had explained are wolves, werewolves who are destined to be mates feel an irresistible attraction on moon nights, but it can’t be the case because she’s human
Anyway I didn’t want to drag the case further, I should just forget about the past and focus on the present.
I let go of her and moved backwards. I hadn’t seen her front profile fully until now.
She looks beautiful in that pink gown.
“You said you wanted to take my dirty clothes right?” I asked plainly, trying to change the topic.
She raised her face up to face me, she was still uneasy and scared.
“Listen Crystal, let’s forget about whatever happened two years ago okay?”
She nodded, then packed up the dirty clothes on my bed.
“After you hand the clothes to the maid, ask one of them to come and clean my bathroom” I instructed
“Don’t worry, I’ll clean it myself” she said before she walked out.
I took a deep breath and lay flat on my bed.
What is happening to me? Why do I feel this way?
** * * * *Crystal’s POV * * * * *
I took a deep breath in and out the moment I came out of his bedroom.
So he wants to forget what happened two years ago?
But how can I forget about it when there is little Aidan.
My little boy is like a reminder for what happened that night. He is the result of our little affair so that night will be a part of my life forever.
** * * * *
I went to the maid’s quarters and handed the clothes to Gina.
Those large eyes of hers, shot a million daggers at me and she muttered some inaudible words, which I suppose are curses but I don’t mind.
I left the quarters and went back to Logan’s Chambers with a mop.
He was not in his bedroom when I walked in. I guess he must have gone to his home office.
I wore an apron on top of my gown so it doesn’t get stained.
I walked into the bathroom and my jaws dropped in amazement.
The place was amazingly beautiful. The walls were just as white as the jacuzzi and toilet, there was a wooden shelf that held soaps, solid and liquid, body sprays and perfumes.
A large mirror on the wall, the place looks like a cosmetic shop.
I took one of the perfumes and sprayed it in the air, then I inhaled.
The fragrance smelled nice.
The bathroom space was very wide and the shower pipe came down really low.
There was a white fluorescent light on the ceiling.
The bathroom had a small window, it was protected with iron on the outside.
I picked a liquid soap and detergent, lathered it in water and started mopping the bedroom.
There was only a little dirt on the floor, I cleaned the body of the tubes and sinks, then I got rid of the few cobwebs on the ceiling.
After I had finished cleaning the room, I looked around in satisfaction and inhaled one more time.
Feeling content, I decided to leave but just when I turned around, I bumped into a hard chest and felt a strong hand grip around my waist.
My hands accidentally brushed against his strong torso and I shivered.
I looked up and my eyes met with his. Those deep blue eyes were staring right at me.
I couldn’t decipher the emotions they held.
“Logan?” I called softly, confused on why I was in his arms.
I was replied with a passionate and hungry kiss as he pressed his lips into mine and crushed them.
My eyes widened and a strange sensation rushed through me.
He held me by the Waist and pulled me closer to his body.
