"Logan, stop!”“Get behind me." She said, keeping her gaze on Logan" she paused . "You are acting this way because of him,?" “No,” she breathed. “This had nothing to do with him.”His burning eyes finally met hers when he turned “Did you think l am a fool?"She blinked. “You are not being fair."Vexed he walked away, she came after him again trying to meet up with where her was, she calls his name repeatedly but he doesn't listen."Logan ." Her hands clasped his round his wrist. "Let go of me." He slapped her hands away, she looked at him shocked."What is wrong… " she asked."I heard what you said, why Joanne."She was confused. "I don't understand what are you saying?"Armani walked to where he was with a smirk on his face. "Did I make your bit angry."Logan walked towards him wagering his finger. "Say that one more time and you'd lose your fingers." He threatened Armani laughed heretically. " You can't do anything. "" Guys. " Joanne touchef her hands to her temple. " You don't have to do this

Was she going to take Armani over him , or why had she reacted that way to a kiss?Probably the former, if there was anything he could make out about the fact that his chin still stung it was definitely that.He wondered what she saw in him, the man reportedly had a nasty, uncontrolled temper and a silly way of speaking he found obnoxious.While he had shown his anger on a few occasions, it seemed the man had a hold on herHis arrival had sprouted something, that he was sure wouldn't end so soon, call it being a thorn in his fresh or more—The sound of a car driving out ended his train of thought. A quick glance at his watch showed that he had stayed behind for more minutes even after she came after him. Pulling out of the parking spot, he saw his headlights driving off and groaned internally. He strolled through the corridor with his hands still on his Chin as though trying to feel the texture, he was amused rather than bitter.As he walked down the hallway, he hummed to himself, thinking o

Somewhere In Chinatown… Manhattan Slum6:30pmThe moon sets but doesn’t illuminate the most popular slum of Chinatown. The alley is quiet but not empty. Men dressed in all black loiter the alley, their silver blade tattoos either hidden beneath clothing or clear for anyone passing by to see. No one dares to pass by this alley. No one who ever does, makes it out unscathed.A man dressed in the common black wear walks past two men leaning against a wall and takes slow steps as he watches a man who just alighted from a black van parked not too far off. The man behind him whispers something to him and he nods saying something back that was barely above a whisper.The man beneath the hood stops short, buries his hands in his pockets and waits for the approaching man. He pulls at the hood of his jacket, shielding his face from the dim moonlight as the man stands barely ten steps away. He looks around to make sure they’re not being watched and if they were, only by a member of the silver blades.T

The sudden gust of wind blew Joanne's hair. It loosened her hair tie, causing her hair to fall across her shoulders in waves. The wind got stronger as she walked towards the edge of the roof. She sipped her glass of wine as she looked down and regarded what looked like the entire city spread out before her. Everything seemed so small from up there. Some of her hair got into her eyes. She patted it back impatiently. Then she slowly fingered the silky strands of her hair as she recalled Logan's fingers in it. ********************Flashback… The only warning she had that Logan was about to kiss her was the sudden darkening of his eyes. Suddenly, he fisted his hands into her hair and used it to pull her close to him. Before Joanne could protest, he mashed his lips onto hers and began kissing her. His tongue pushed against her parted lips, demanding entry. She gasped at the unfamiliar, but pleasant sensation, and then his tongue delved into her mouth, entwining with hers. All the while, L

Four hours ago…A black SUV zoomed through one of the slums of Chinatown, tinted glass and private plates, it most definitely drew the attention of the goons around who looked on as it stopped right in front of the lifeless man on the floor covered in a black bag.The bag was unzipped, the man in it was naked, with a bullet hole right in the middle of his head that might have been the cause of his death, he gave no other hints of who his assassinant might have been.Logan and the other two occupants of the car made their way off the ace toward the pool of blood.He stood in the middle of the dark alleyway, he took off his shades and squatted till he was staring straight at the man's dead eyes that were still right there opened.With his palm, he covers them before standing back up."Who reported it?" He asked the other man that was beside him."One of the men here.""Can I speak to him?" He requested.The man walked away and returned after a minute with another man that looked like a l

His car stopped finally at the restaurant, he dragged a breath as he looked into the vicinity again for what seemed like a long minute.Confused by the anonymous messages that kept popping in filled with pictures of Joanne and the other man he stomped into the restaurant, his heart beating heavily.The door man tries to stop him but was shoved away.He walked in suspense filled into the room, time paused, just the silent echoes from Logan's own heart beating erratically .Bu-bum!Bu-bum !!*******Present Moment…He stood there for a moment taking in the view as he watched their lips touch, she backed away soon enough and turned to see him .He had a smirk on his face. She wanted to leave after him but Armani's hand held her back ."What are you doing?" He questioned."Isn't it obvious, I am getting away from you."He smirked. "You did that when was it again, yesterday and you are back to me today, what more do you need to know that this is not working— I mean whatever you think you sh

It tooks guts …Joanne slipped into her clothes. She felt that she had stalled the confrontation with Logan long enough. She had to talk to him, and it might as well be now. She took a deep breath and headed to his room. It was after she pushed open the door to Logan's room that her brain registered the muted sounds that were coming from within.Joanne blinked rapidly as her gaze zeroed in on Logan's king sized bed.At first, she couldn't make sense of what she was seeing. In actual fact, her brain didn't want to make sense of what her eyes had registered.She felt her heart contract painfully.Logan was in bed with a tall, platinum blonde. Whatever scraps of clothing she had been putting on lay strewn about the floor.The woman was practically naked and Logan's face was buried in the hollow between her breasts. She uttered soft, mewling sounds of pleasure as her hands traveled up and down Logan's back. Both of them were a tangle of arms and legs. It was hard to know where Logan's limb

Armani offers a hand to Sebastian and the stoic man gets to his feet to return the gesture.“Great to see you again after so long.” Sebastian gives a hint of the smile.“Same. It’s always a pleasure.” Armani responds. His eyes drift sideways to the guards lining the left and right corners of the room before focusing on Sebastian, his eyes drifting briefly to the guard standing at attention behind the Don of the silver mafia.“How about you join us for a drink?” Sebastian offers as he returns to his seat.“Why not?” Armani nods and takes a seat across him, pulling down his dark suit jacket in a swift motion.Sebastian wa
