Logan's POVSitting on my patio, I took a sip from the bottle of beer in front of me. Everywhere seemed strangely peaceful. Like the type of pseudo-peace you experienced before the outbreak of war.It's been a few weeks now and no one knew the small doctor's whereabouts. All the information I got from my men was irrelevant. I couldn't believe it when Mother lashed out at me. She thought I hid the small doctor because of my confession the other day.She has loathed me since that day."How could you!? How could you confess to love the suspect who almost killed your sister," she sang-song, calling me names.With my mother's incessant outburst, I had to explain my position to Lian. Well, she said she trusted me and she knew I wouldn't harbor a suspect who almost killed her in my heart and she knew that I didn't hide her either.My father on the other hand was indifferent. He knew that my profession of love the other day was a lie. He knew I only said it because I was boxed into a corner.
Logan's POV I had a short reverie, it was such a sweet and pleasant one. But it was short-lived. A great light shone from nowhere, illuminating my darkness. My vision cleared out immediately and I snapped out of it. When my eyes fluttered open. The first thing I saw was the bottle of beer on the stool. I did not remember putting it on the stool. Immediately, I became alert and took in my surroundings. I was lying naked on the floor of the cave. My body was full of perspiration and something else- there was grime down there. I slapped myself, trying to figure out if I was still in the dreamland or reality. "Stan!!!" I screamed out my wolf's name and sprang to my knees trying to remember what shit I did again. My eyes darted around and I saw my clothes, they lay strewn on the floor and I just couldn't remember dropping them there. When did I even pull them off? Argh! I yelled in frustration as I hurriedly pulled on my pants. I did not remember a thing. All I remembered was that
Logan's POV"Take your hands off the investigation," father said coldly.I had just returned to my chambers after making my morning bows when one of my father's guards rushed in right behind me.My guards announced his presence and I let him in, wondering why my father sent him. Bowing his head slightly, he relayed his message."Alpha Lucas, summon you, my Prince.""Really? I just left his presence… alright I will be right there," I said and the guard bowed and took his leave. Walking back to the Alpha's office, I wondered what could have gone wrong. I just left his presence. If he wanted me to return, he could have mind-linked me.Earlier, when I came to say my greetings, the atmosphere was grim and my mother looked at me dispassionately. But I had lost her favor since I made my clumsy confession about the small doctor, so I did not take her coldness to heart."Take your hands off the investigation!" My father said as soon as I showed up before him. In his office were my mother and
Logan's POVWho dare defy my order, I grunted as I launched out. I couldn't see clearly but I knew someone was defiantly coming towards me.I raised my hand to strike down whoever it was. But a strong hand intercepted me seizing my arm in the air "My Prince!" A familiar voice shrieked, twisting my arm forcibly behind me. I was supposed to feel the pain but I felt nothing, I was numb with rage.I raised my second arm ready to strike again but it was also hung in the air."Logan!!! Get a grip over yourself!" The voice yelled.Lian… it's Lian… what have I done?Still shaking in rage, my hand went slack immediately. I jerked my arms out of her grips and pushed myself away from her.Although my vision was still blurry, I could see clearer now."What came over you!? Huh? I told you not to come!" I snickered but Lian said nothing. I continued to move away from her, I was still enraged and I did not want to hurt her.But then, my sight settled a little distance behind Lian. Few steps behind
Renae's POV"Good day, my Prince. Good day my Prince," June and Eden stood in front of the cave. Their voices sounded loud as they greeted."Come on in. Why did you come to see me? Any news about Renae? Prince Logan asked."We still haven't gotten any wind of her…" June responded."So why are you here? And how can I help you? Logan said, looking uninterested."Mr Hart, Renae's father, was captured…""How did you get that piece of information?" Logan yelled angrily. "We are sorry, my Prince. It's just hearsay… We came to find out the truth… and Renae's whereabouts too… we thought you could have found some clues," June whispered, bowing her head.Logan looked like he had just seen a ghost. "What!? How brazen! You walked in here to interrogate me about Renae and her father! Why would I be bothered about such a low life? She treated me for a while and that was all or am I missing something?" Prince Logan lambasted. "I am sorry, my Prince," June said hurriedly, a little bit flustered."I
Logan's POVI launched out of the cave like lightning. My body was ridden in pain and I couldn't contain my rage, all I saw was red.No doubt, if I set my eyes on Jennifer, I would tear her into pieces. She played me for a fool and rubbed it on my face. I tried to mind-link Renae but I knew that it was of no use, she wouldn't answer. Earlier when she mind-linked me, it felt so close that I thought she was standing beside me and speaking out loudly.I didn't even know if she was doing fine or not. It was pure torture. It was better when I didn't know the truth, now I knew and I couldn't stay calm. My mate and child are missing… they are in danger.How did I miss the signs? It was Renae Hart all along. She was close to me and I didn't know. Remembering how I had bashed her on two different occasions when I went to interrogate her, my heart sank. I wondered how she must have felt. Different scenes flashes through my head and I gnash my teeth.I tore down my courtyard frantically and a
Logan's POVMy hands were covered with blood. The blood was a mixture of Mr Hart's blood and mine. I was shaking violently as I hit the oak tree non-stop.Some stranger rescued Renae? Who could it be? That old hag, he surely knows something. It isn't over, I would surely get the truth out of him.Suddenly, a hand seized my arm as I aimed at the oak tree again.Turning around, I beheld about four guards. They were my father's men."Let me go!" I yelled, trying to free myself but I knew it was of no use.They grabbed me and I cooperated as they bundled me down to my chambers.They pulled me in and bowed before taking their leave."Bastards! What a mocking bow!" I yelled after them."Get me some water," I commanded coldly. A few minutes later, my guards brought a bowl of water down to me. I washed off my bloody hands and wiped them dry.Earlier, it seemed that my father caught on that I was responsible for Renae's pregnancy. He must have figured it out because of my outburst.Fuck! I sh
Renae's POVI was almost sleeping off when a voice woke me up."Renae, Renae, are you there?"My eyes widened as I realized who it was. It was Prince Regan. He must have figured it out after I mind-linked him earlier."... I know you can hear me… I am really sorry for not recognizing you…I just found out the truth today. You should have come to me. You should have told me…why did you keep to yourself? Did Jennifer has dirt on you? Did she threaten you not to talk? Are you there? Please talk to me…" he said and waited for my response. But when I did not talk, he continued."Where are you? I will find you and our baby. Are you safe? I heard a stranger rescued you from your father…." He continued on and on. Funnily, I felt a sense if comfort and relief and in no time, I fell asleep while he was still talking.*****It was dawn and I was just waking up. I felt a tap on my leg and I jumped up from my sleep. I was surprised and alarmed to see the Princess.She flicked on the oil lamp in my
