Chapter 65 I don’t want kids
MYSTIC SHADOWS FORTRESS
Kyrian sighed for the umpteenth time and it was really getting on Logan’s nerves. Logan could tell he was being intentional and trying to get on his very nerves. They were working on their new partnership with a firm and had been at it since the early hours of the morning.
Kyrian being kyrian had distracted himself countless of time. He was either making a silly sound or inhaling and exhaling deeply like he was being weighed down by a bag of cement. Logan gritted his teeth as he held on to the pen in his hand tightly. He was in no mood to accommodate his Beta’s tantrums.
Since the day he parted ways with Jovy, he had thought that would be the end of his yearning for her but instead the feeling came on stronger than he would have expected and it only made him on the edge. Waking up with a hard on and having to jerk off with the thoughts of her in his head was gradually becoming a habit and he was damn fed up.
Logan decided to pay more attention to the work in front of him after making a silent promise to himself to have a good fuck at the end of the day. But the demon inside of Kyrian had other plans than letting any of them concentrate. Kyrian wasn’t just distracting himself but also Logan.
Seeing Logan’s face muscles constrict in anger made Kyrian chuckle silently to himself. He did the loud sigh again and he could hear Logan cuss out faintly. Since Logan returned from San Francisco, Kyrian had been trying his hardest to figure out what was wrong with him. It had been the case too the last time he had the girl over. If his instincts were right he probably was thinking about the girl. What seem amusing to Kyrian was how someone as callous minded as Logan would be bothered by an ordinary girl. It was either she has a particular hold on him or he is smitten.
Kyrian is less concerned about what his friend had in mind but he was more bothered about the lack of response from the packs he had threatened to rain brimstone and fire on if they refused to provide a solution to the problem on ground. It’s either they really wanted to see the wrath of the Mystic Shadows Fortress or they have just resolved into surrender.
Kyrian wouldn’t deny being frustrated by it all too, the cowardly Fortress council members keeps pestering him rather than face the Alpha who refused to do what was expected of him. Being a Beta wasn’t such a cool job after all. He let out a sigh again but this time it was unintentional.
Logan hissed out. “You do that one more time and I would have birds feast on your head.”
“You make it sound like I am a barbecue incentive.” Kyrian replied with a snort.
“Just try me one more time.” Logan threatened. He was really not in the mood to accommodate Kyrian’s craziness at the moment.
Leaning into his chair, Kyrian chewed on the bottom of the pen he had in hand. “Why are you always so pricked with everything? You act like a prick.” Taking a pause, he smirked to himself for his words. “Hmmm that seems like an awesome line, don’t you think?” He grinned like an idiot while awaiting Logan’s affirmation.
Kyrian slapped his hand on his knee as he let out another tired sigh. “What was I expecting before? A hug? You suck at showing politeness.”
“Should you really be talking or getting to work? You don’t get paid as my partner to burden me with your thoughts. I pay you to get your bloody ass working!” Logan glared.
Kyrian yawned loudly. “No where in the contract was it stated that I should work myself to death or not take any break. You will need to spare me those absurd sermon of yours.”
Logan took in a long breath. “What did I do to deserve you?”
“You really don’t deserve me. The Moon Goodness definitely was high when she paired us together.” Kyrian faked a tear. “All you do is mess with my head and make my life miserable.”
“If it hurts so bad you should drop the job.” Logan replied sounding bored.
“For the love of the Fortress and my patriotic contribution are the only reasons I am not going to let your evil self get to me.”
Logan rubbed his eyes in frustration. “If you are hungry Kyrian just say it. I would order something. Please just keep quiet.”
Kyrian chuckled. “Now this is why I became friends with you. So considerate.”
Logan stared with his mouth slightly agape. “Do you always lie to yourself this much?”
“It is none of your business as long as it is my lie.”
Logan laughed lightly. “You are so fucking annoying.”
Kyrian sat up with his expression looking serious. “But really now Logan, why do you seem so unbothered about this whole thing? You know how much the whole Fortress is grumbling and even though my ears are almost ripped out, you who is solely responsible for all this seem unbothered.”
Logan scoffed. “I already told you if it were up to me that I wouldn’t even indulge in any bit of it. Can you let this go please?”
“You know that’s impossible, why become an Alpha after all?”
“I don’t want kids!” He blurted out.
Kyrian stared at him like he had grown two heads. “I can’t believe I am hearing this from you right now. What nonsense are you saying? I thought all of this was just about falling in love. So what does a child have to do with all of this?”
“Maybe you thought so yourself, you never really asked for my opinion.”
Staying silent for a while, Kyrian couldn’t understand what was running through Logan’s head. It was bad enough that he had some sort of despise for women, now he didn’t seem remorseful admitting that he didn’t want children. It was unheard of in the werewolf history that an Alpha would refuse to reproduce cause even the ones who were impotent try their hardest to find a way out. No doubt, Logan Odell was a weirdo.
“You overthink things too much.” Logan halted his train of thought. “Cause why the hell does this even bother you this much?”
He was getting really tired of having the same conversation over and over again. He was beginning to think that it’s Kyrian’s favorite pass time to want to keep up with pestering him over marriage. It was bad enough that he had to let off a debt just for him to be given a wife and now his ears had to be filled with complaints too.
“Do you think of how much your decisions affect not just you but others also?” Kyrian sounded pissed.
Logan sat up after realizing the conversation was going beyond what he had thought it would result into. “Come on man, this isn’t that serious, is it?”
“Are you even listening to yourself? Here I am burning my ass out to make you more respected in the Fortress and to secure your future with Mystic Shadows and here you are being egoistic about it all. I understand your pain Alpha but you can’t keep up this way.” Kyrian shut his laptop close and stood up. “You know what? I think I have had enough for today. I need to eat.” Not sparing Logan a glance, Kyrian walked out of the office leaving his friend in a perplexed state.
