Chapter 47 We fucked
SAN FRANCISCO
Logan rubbed at his head after he had almost exhausted the whole of himself talking to different business partners. He hated going to occasions that brought all of them together under the same roof. It always put him in a frenzy cause he wasn’t so keen on talking to people or having such long conversations.
Some of his business partners always tried to meddle when business had been sorted. They keep asking questions like where his wife or fiancée was? And sometimes he wished they weren’t mostly humans to enable him growl at them when they start to inconvenience him.
The deal he had been working night and day to seal had eventually been sorted today and he felt like a load had been lifted from his shoulder. Just when he sat down to relieve himself of the day’s stress, his mind went to Jovy and the thought of her being out and him not knowing what she was up to with his credit card bothered him so much.
Logan picked up his cellphone to dial Alfred whom he had assigned to look out for her. He picked on the first ring like he had been waiting for his boss’s call.
‘Where is she?’ He bellowed into the phone.
‘She is already at home, sir.’ Alfred voice came from the receiver.
‘Ok.’ Logan responded before hanging up the call.
Logan couldn’t understand why he was so concerned about her when he isn’t the sort of person to care about a woman. Soon his phone notified him of an incoming call from Kyrian which had him groaning in pure frustration. The last thing he wanted to hear is Kyrian’s whine in his ears.
‘Please say whatever it is you have to say and hang up the call.’ Logan said as soon as he picked the call.
‘You really think I am that interested in you?’ Kyrian inquired. ‘You should be glad I am taking keen interest in you. You are so ungrateful.’
‘Thank your stars for distance right now. I would have had that head of yours playing out on the field.’
Kyrian scoffed. ‘I am so scared right now’
Logan chuckled. ‘You should be. Why are you calling, Kyrian?’
‘Sometimes I wonder if you ever remember you are an Alpha and that you have duties you are meant to take care of.’
‘It’s why you are my Beta.’
‘Which I really hate.’
‘Your resignation letter should be ready by the time I return.’
‘I could send you a word document right this minute.’
The laughter that erupted from both men was uncontrollable. No matter how hard Logan tried Kyrian always finds a way to get him rolling in laughter. And sometimes, Logan finds it extremely annoying that his Beta knows him so much.
‘Fine, you win. I had quite a long day, Kyrian. What’s going on?’
Kyrian snickered. ‘Shouldn’t you be getting your dick sucked right now?’
‘I do have a life beyond dick sucking and the likes.’
‘You are one to talk.’
‘Shut the hell up!’
Kyrian chuckled. ‘How did the brunch go?’
Logan groaned. ‘Please remind me to never attend such occasions ever again.’
Kyrian whistled. ‘What happened?’
‘Everyone practically wanted to see my wife or wife to be.’
‘First, don’t exaggerate not everyone is concerned about you getting hooked. It is just Mr Hernandez messing with you.’
‘Do you have to be so specific? And it’s not like you were there.’ He chortled.
Only Kyrian knows how much Mr Hernandez irked Logan. He had been a long time friend and business partner of Logan’s father when he was alive. Knowing how much of a hard time he had as a kid, the silly old man would always taunt him with the question of if he would ever settle down. They are both in the same business space and he could hardly avoid seeing the old man’s face. If Logan wasn’t working so much on his self control, he definitely would have ripped him apart.
‘Don’t mind the old man. Just ignore him.’
‘I wish.’
‘Right. I have got something to say though.’
‘What’s going on?’
‘I haven’t gotten any news from the packs. Those motherfuckers don’t even give a fuck!’
Logan heaved a sigh. ‘Kyrian, why do I feel like you are more affected than I am?’ He could already sense his Beta doing an eye roll.
‘Does anything ever bother you?’
‘I would have preferred buying off the packs owing us too much. Those bastards don’t deserve the leverage you have bestowed upon them.’
‘Don’t be like that, you already agreed.’ Kyrian persuaded.
‘Which is why I am not saying or doing anything yet.’
‘When do you intend to return?’ Kyrian asked.
‘Tomorrow.’
‘Good. Alright man. See you soon.’ Kyrian sighed.
The call ended leaving Logan in the bubble of the silent room. It felt a bit weird that he was alone at that moment. He had only been talking to Kyrian and it had felt really good though.
Logan stood up and motioned towards the transparent glass that could enable him stared out into the city of San Francisco. No matter what anyone says about him, he doesn’t give a fuck and it had taken him a long while to retain such mindset without having to care what anyone thinks.
It had been tough for him having to live through the pains his father caused all because his mother was too trusting. He didn’t just hate the idea of being in love, he also wasn’t interested in the idea of having kids too. It annoyed him even more when everyone expected him as being the Alpha to be able to provide an heir.
The only reason he had agreed to Kyrian’s idea of him getting a suppose Luna was to reduce the grumbling of the pack members. As an Alpha the needs of his people was meant to come first but not at the expense of his sanity and he hoped which ever female gets brought to him, would not try to act funny but act accordingly and for the sake of avoiding his wrath as much as she can.
The thought of having someone in his space and being called his wife makes it all very annoying and he almost found it demeaning. Logan thrusted his hands into his pocket but soon his phone rang again. Kyrian was calling.
‘There is a strong conviction that you are the one in need of a woman. Why the hell are you calling me again?’ Logan demanded.
Kyrian chuckled. ‘What would you do without me?’
‘I really hate your guts. What do you want from me?’
Kyrian clicked his tongue. ‘Well I got really bored so I thought you might amuse me.’
‘You are so fucked, tell me what’s up with you. It’s obvious you want to share something so bad.’ Logan pointed out.
Kyrian let out a dramatic huff. ‘So Diane-‘
‘Oh, Diane…’ Logan teased.
‘Can you let me finish?’
Logan shook his head. ‘Sure. Go ahead.’
‘So, things got a bit cranky. I had some works to finish up at the office yesterday when I got a knock on the door and it turned out to be Diane. She says her WiFi had issues and needed to work on some documents to send to you. She looked sexy as fuck man!’
‘What the hell did you do?’
‘Long story short…’ He paused. ‘We fucked.’
‘Damn! You sleek!’
‘I ain’t even started yet.’
‘Tell me all about it.’
‘She got really pissed, said I had taken her under duress. Man, I didn’t even make the first move!’
‘You trying to convince me or yourself?’
‘Say what you please. But she is a damn fucker, I was yelling!’
Logan laughed. ‘Oh geez! You sound like you have been celibate for ages.’
‘I could pass for that, unlike a particular person.’
‘Beating around the bush will get you stung by a scorpion.’
‘Might as well wear a protective gear.’
They both burst out into laughter.
‘Should I say, you and Diane were only waiting for me to leave to get down on each other.’
‘Is that a statement or a question?’
‘Whichever way you see it. I only need you to answer.’
‘You know what? Forget I called.’ Kyrian didn’t wait for Logan to respond before hanging up the call.
Logan shook his head with a wide grin plastered on his face. He can never get tired of Kyrian.
