Chapter 90 Come to me
MYSTIC SHADOWS FORTRESS
Jovy sighed with her heart heavy as she tried to engage her mind. Her phone was irrelevant since she had gone through every page that could entertain her. She even tried reading but it wasn’t working. What made her so unstable was her inability to reach Alice and she had no other idea on how to reach her cause Anna’s line isn’t reachable either.
It has been a week since she became Logan’s official Luna. The ceremony was so short that she almost didn’t remember how it went. It was almost like Logan couldn’t wait to get it all done with. Even though the night had been amazing and he had shun her off the next day, she had decided to put it all behind her. All through the week, he hasn’t spoken to her or touched her and as crazy as it might sound, Jovy craved for his touch.
She knew something was definitely wrong with her for wanting a person who clearly hates her. Jovy’s heart sank at the thought of her spending the rest of her life living miserably. She had always heard about Luna’s having some duties which would have been nice and might keep her busy. But it appeared Logan has ensured she plays no part in the Fortress activities. It made her exhausted with all that is happening around her. Hot tears stung the back of her eyes, it doesn’t have to be like this but she has no choice then. Her life is nothing to write home about and all of her dreams are gone and shattered.
The thoughts of how different her life would have been if she had just been a little courageous keeps crossing her mind. The Midnight Pack would have definitely gotten someone else to serve as their sacrificial lamb. The sound of her phone ringing jolted her out of her thoughts. The call was from an unknown number and she wondered who it could be.
‘Hello.’ Jovy spoke softly into the speaker.
‘Jovy? Is that you? This is Amelia.’ The voice on the other line said into the receiver.
Jovy has never felt relieved and delighted to hear Amelia’s voice like she did now. ‘Oh my goodness! How are you, Amelia?’
“I should be asking you that question but I am fine. I left the pack already.’ She said.
‘When was that?’
‘The same day you left. And dad helped me with so much giving me enough money to settle and I got lucky with a job at a bar.’
‘Where are you?’
‘Gold pack.’
‘Where is that?’
‘Somewhere I found safe to stay. How are you Jovy?’
The question triggered Jovy’s emotions and had tears rushing down her face. She sniffed quietly to prevent Amelia from hearing.
‘Are you still there Jovy?’ She asked.
Jovy chuckled dryly. ‘I’m here. And I am fine.’ She lied through her teeth.
Amelia sighed. ‘Jovy, I know you are not fine. The reason why I called you is to ask you to come down here. My apartment is big enough for the both of us and I have just about enough money to bring you down here. Please Jovy, leave that place.’
‘He is my husband now, Amelia. I can’t just run off like that.’
Jovy wanted to make her marriage work even though it looks like an obvious attempt at suicide. But she stands with the belief that love is for everyone and no one is immune to it. Logan’s consistent call for her before they got married had her stuck with the thought that he would eventually love her.
‘Do you think he sees you as relevant to him?’ Amelia cut into her thought.
Jovy felt the hit of Amelia’s question and the answer was exactly in the question but she isn’t ready to admit that fact.
‘Let’s not talk about this Amelia. Just let it be. I am so grateful for this call, I would really love for more of it.’ She admitted.
‘And I won’t stop telling you to come to me. We can start a new and better life here. And I know you will listen to my plea someday.’ Amelia sniffed.
‘Someday.’ Jovy whispered.
‘Please take care of yourself.’
‘Thanks. Be fine too, Amelia.’ Jovy replied before hanging up and she let the tears fall uncontrollably.
Deep within her, she knows it’s just her being a coward and a fool that hopes he would fall back in love with her which obviously is a fallacy. Wiping her tears as her belly growled, she made her way downstairs to get something to eat. That’s all she has to do. Eat, sleep and repeat.
The maids are all at her service but she couldn’t help calling out to any of them to serve her. She had practically lived that way all her life and has no intention of making people work for her. As she walked down the hallway towards the stairs, her heart missed a beat when her eyes met with Logan’s. He was more handsome than the last time she saw him and his beards looked unshaved like they were three days behind.
Walking with a slow stride towards her, Logan’s eyes raked her small frame in the thin dress material she wore and it made his wolf pant eagerly.
“Where are you going?” He asked.
Jovy eyes darted in fear as she bowed her head. “I want to get some food.”
A frown crossed his face. “You would do that later. Return to your room.”
Excitement surged through Jovy at the order cause she knew what that meant and it made all the hunger vanish right on spot. She could hear his footsteps behind her as she walked to her room. Opening the door for him to walk in, like the diligent wife she went straight to the bed and began to undress with her back turned to him.
Logan watched her keenly as she nervously and in a hurry tried to undress. This is the problem he has with her, Jovy is always acting eager for him to fuck her. He doesn’t want her to be eager, it’s the fear in her eyes that turns him on and how much he would rip through her while she gripped the sheets in pain. Logan has no intention to make her enjoy whatever he intends to do to her. It’s only him who has the right to enjoy it.
Not saying a word, he retreated out of the room from Jovy who had shyly made her way to the bed after getting naked. She was shocked when the door was wide open and Logan was nowhere to be found. Getting off the bed in a hurry, she unintentionally hit her finger with the door in a bid to close it when she heard some giggles in the hallway. The pain hit differently as she sat on the floor with her naked back leaning on the door. This time she cried bitterly, not only does he take fun in humiliating her, Logan already takes her as his play thing or probably she doesn’t interest him anymore.
“You are such a fool Jovy.” She mumbled to herself as she sobbed. The pain in her finger added to the tears and she didn’t hold back her cry as she watched it turn red.
