Logan finally came to consciousness. His head was banging like a South African gong. He didn't know where he was or what had happened to him in the past hours.
"What time is it?" He mumbled to himself and then rolled over. How could he make it to work when he was feeling like a man but by a train?
Groaning, he turned to the edge and that was when he felt a body next to him. He jerked up and blinked his eyes open. Right there on the bed was a lady and she was still.
The woman stirred in her sleep as she felt a hand on her stomach. Her head was so fuzzy that for a second she didn't even want to wake up. Heavily came open her and she nearly curled back into bed when she felt a presence to her left. She flinched and sat up at once, her eyes widening as she saw him, "Argh!" She screamed and threw her hands up in shock.
"What are you doing in my bed?!" She snapped and grabbed the pillow on the bed, throwing it at Logan.
Logan grabbed the pillow as it fell on his shoulders. He looked at her with shock, wondering what she was doing in his bed. "Who are you?" He asked.
The lady looked around the place, wondering what she was doing in a strange room, "Where are we?!" She asked angrily. Logan looked around the room. The blankets and sheets were so smooth and soft that he knew without a second thought that it wasn't his house. His house couldn't be so nice. As much as he kept his place tidy, his sheets could never be so luxurious or the walls so wide. "I don't know where this is, is it your place? Did I bring you home from the bar?" He asked.The lady was honestly shocked. She looked at him like he'd lost his mind. "My place? Why on earth would I bring you to my place?!" She asked incredulously and fumbled out of bed, trying to find her clothes.
Logan couldn't recall any incident after the bar. Just that he'd thrown down shot after shot at the counter and then stumbled off the stool before a kind man helped him. But from there, he had no idea what had happened. "I don't know where this is, I don't recall being with you," he stated.
The lady rubbed her head aggressively like she wanted to pull out her hair. How could I be in bed with a strange man and have no memories of the previous day? "How did we get here? Say something, tell me what happened," she asked him pointedly.
Logan shrugged, "I have no idea what happened either, I'm just...I don't know," he replied. But he looked at himself and then her, there was no way that he could have slept with her. He was too drunk to even function. "All I recall is having a drink at the bar. I might have taken a little too much and then I don't know what happened next, I don't recall your face from the previous night at all," he replied.
Hissing, the lady began to thrash, looking for her clothes which were everywhere, on the bed, on the floor, and around the room. "I don't recall you either and I wasn't at any bar! There's no way you could have picked me up from some cheap place!" She snapped aggressively."I'm sure this is all a misunderstanding, we can figure out what happened," he tried to make her relax.
"I can't relax! I want to know what happened to me, did you bloody touch me?" She asked.
"Calm down, I mean didn't lay a finger on you, I'm so sorry, I wasn't myself last night so I have no memory of what happened," Logan assured her. It didn't make it any better but he was sure he didn't do whatever happened on purpose. He was too wasted too.Trying to calm herself, she inhaled deeply and decided to regain her composure. Although she didn't know what was going on, she couldn't just flare up. "This has to be a conspiracy," she mumbled to herself.
Logan looked at her curiously, "Is something wrong?" He asked. The lady hissed at him, "Of course everything is wrong, I am in bed with a strange man, how could you even ask me that?" She snapped at him.
Sighing, he rolled off the bed too and grabbed his shirt which was hung on the nightstand, pulling it over his head. She picked up her stilettos, pulling it over her bare feet. The lady already decided that she couldn't have gotten into bed with a strange man, especially someone who looked like Logan. From his clothes, he didn't look important at all. She decided that someone had tried to frame her and succeeded.
"You must talk to anyone about this," she said. Logan nodded weakly. He didn't have a reason to talk to anyone about what had happened, he didn't know what was going on himself. "You aren't saying anything, I said you mustn't speak to anyone about what just happened or there will be consequences!" She hissed.
Logan held up his hands, "I've heard you, I'm not going to tell anyone about what happened," he agreed eagerly, nodding his head.
"Where is my bag?" She suddenly muffled in frustration and started rummaging around the bed. Logan looked about too and found that her bag was on the floor. At that same time, she saw it and reached out, picking it up. She looked through it and pulled out a wad of clean dollar bills.
"Take this and buy something nice, I don't want you to go running your mouth," she said.
"Why are you giving me money? I've told you I won't tell anyone about it," he replied.
The lady rolled her eyes and handed her the money. With shaky hands, Logan took the cash from her, she gestured at her lips, doing a zipper motion with it. "That's hush money," she added.

CHAPTER ONE-HUNDRED SEVENTY
After Andre was shot by Logan and he picked jersey up hurrying out of the hallway to get help from his men, things happen so fast after that.Just like he predicted, Andre's men scattered the moment they found that their leader was gone, not even bothering to put off a fight since in their words… ‘it was not worth it’. Instead of feeling relieved and satisfied that he got the upper hand, Logan sent some of his men after them to make sure that every member of Andrews team was nullified.Thankfully, Jackson was on standby to oversee the rest of the operations because Logan didn't even bother waiting back, jumping into the ambulance to take Josie to the hospital.Calling for reinforcements on his way there, Logan kept hoping that they weren't too late.Already, Josie's pallor was ashy and her breathing was slow.Even her hands seemed cold and clammy, although the latter part might just be his hand.Immediately, they got to the ER, Logan took over, commanding the nurses to get a doctor do

Logan's heart dropped to his stomach as he stared at Josie in surprise, wondering what the hell she was doing back here.She must have known he'd feel the same way because her eyes flicked up to his and she mouthed the words ‘I'm sorry’.“Looks like I didn't have to go so far to cause you anguish, Logan.” Andre laughed. “She came straight to me.”Logan took a step towards them. “Hey, look Andre. You don't have to do this, she's innocent in all of this!”“How so? Don't talk to me like I'm an illiterate, I know she's behind all of the plannings you've taken recently… so maybe she wasn't part of this before but you certainly knew how to welcome her into the lifestyle.” Andre chuckled, twisting his gun around so it was pointed directly at her heart.In all of Logan's years dealing with enemies, territory fighting and impeachment from subordinates, he never was once a scared as he was right now.It was now he knew what it meant to have your weaknesses directed at you. Logan would gladly giv
CHAPTER ONE- HUNDRED SIXTY-EIGHT
Waving his gun in front of Logan's face, Andre smirked, cocking his head to the side. “Well, well, well… What's going to be a lover boy? Are you going to shoot first or should I?”Logan didn't even flinch at the empty threats. “If you wanted me dead, you could have done so the moment my team walked in through the front door of the building.”Andre clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth. “That's true but you getting shot randomly by one of my men wasn't the plan. It would only rob me of the joy I would get from shooting you in the face by myself and taking the crown while the blood leached out of your body.”Logan chuckled softly which then grew into full-blown laughter, only serving to irritate Andre.“What the hell is so funny, huh?’ Andre grunted, taking a step closer.Logan ignored him, laughing on for as long as he wanted, only slowing the sound down to a trickle a couple of minutes later. “I'm just amused…” “I didn't realize that my words were that funny.” he huffed

Chapter 167: The Final Showdown Logan's team stood victorious. Eclipse was defeated. Andre was gone. But questions remained. Why did Andre target Logan's family? What secrets did Eclipse hide? Logan's eyes met Ethan's."Time for answers," Logan said. Ethan nodded."I'll tell you everything," Ethan promised. Logan's grip on Ethan's shoulder tightened."Brother," Logan said. Ethan smiled."Home," Ethan whispered.Logan's team gathered around Ethan in a secure facility. Ethan's eyes scanned the room nervously. Logan's expression softened."Tell us, Ethan," Logan encouraged. Ethan took a deep breath."Eclipse wanted Dad's research," Ethan began."Research on what?" Rachel asked. Ethan hesitated."Artificial intelligence," Ethan revealed."AI?" Jackson repeated. Ethan nodded."Dad's AI project. Code-named 'Erebus'." Sophia's eyes narrowed."Erebus?" Sophia repeated. Ethan's voice dropped."Dad's creation. A powerful AI.Capable of global control." Logan's eyes widened."That's why Andre

Chapter 165: Rescue Mission Logan's team huddled around the tactical map, their faces illuminated only by the faint glow of the computer screens."Alright, here's the plan," Logan said, his voice low and steady, his eyes locked onto the layout. "Rachel, take point. Jackson, you're with me. We'll breach from the east wing."Rachel nodded, her piercing green eyes scanning the blueprint. "I've hacked the security feeds. We've got a 30-second window before they realize we're in."Jackson checked his gear, his rugged features set with determination. "I'm ready to take out their comms."Logan's gaze locked onto the mission objective, his jaw clenched. "Josie's being held in the central cell block. We need to move fast." The team nodded, their faces set with resolve, their breathing steady. They moved out, their footsteps silent as they approached the heavily fortified facility. Rachel took point, her pistol leading the way, her movements fluid."Security team incoming," she whisper
Chapter 160
Logan's team had been searching for Amber for weeks, and finally, they had her in custody. The dimly lit interrogation room was eerily silent, the only sound coming from the hum of the fluorescent lights above. Amber sat calmly, her hands cuffed to the metal table. Her eyes locked onto Logan, who stood at the far end of the room, arms crossed."You're a hard woman to find, Amber," Logan said, his deep voice firm.Amber smirked. "You're not the first to underestimate me, Logan."Logan's team leader, Rachel, stepped forward. "Let's get down to business. We know you're involved with Andre's operation. Tell us what you know."Amber leaned back, a calculated glint in her eye. "I'll tell you everything, but first, I want immunity."Logan raised an eyebrow. "You think you're in a position to negotiate?"Amber's smile widened. "I have information you desperately need. Josie's location, for starters." Rachel's eyes snapped to Logan, who nodded curtly."Deal," Rachel said. "But if you're lying,
