Chapter 62
Adena was lying on her bed, thinking about the recent events. She was lost in thoughts when her rickety wooden door burst open, revealing Buster. The door had been worn out because of being severally kicked open by Logan's men.
"Get up and come with me, master needs you" Buster's shrill voice echoed in the room.
Adena was not shocked, Logan always takes out his frustration on her. He uses her to subdue his anger and release his urges. She hated him for it, she despises him.
She reluctantly stood up and followed Buster to Logan's bedroom, where he was already waiting for her with his black towel tied around his waist.
His manhood was already shooting out, Adena was terrified at the sight of it. Shivers ran down her spine when she thought about the pains ahead.
"What are you waiting for slave? Do I need to remind you every time?" Logan queried, lifting his blood shot eyes to stare at her. She looked away immediately, his stares pierced her.
Adena got rid of her clothes and went to lie on the desk as usual. Logan attacked her from behind, f*cking her until she cried. He wouldn't stop until he saw tears roll down her cheeks. He derived joy from her tears, from her pain.
"Get out!" He commanded, after she had slumped to the ground. He tied his towel back and put his cigar in his mouth.
Adena, who was still sobbing on the floor, started gathering her clothes.. her heart was filled with hate and fury, she regretted ever helping him when he had a seizure.
She stood up to leave but flashed a deadly glare at her master. Logan turned to see her, staring at him, he scoffed.
"What are you still doing here? Didn't I tell you to get the f*ck out?!" He barked at her, puffing out smoke from his cigar.
Adena gritted her teeth, she wished for his death, she wanted to see him suffer. She wondered why any sane human being would do this continually to another human being. Logan was heartless, and her rebellious self couldn't take it any longer.
"You are heartless" she said, under her breath. But Logan heard it and it shocked him.
He wondered how she could muster up the courage to say that to him.
"What did you just say?" He asked, taking two bold steps towards her.
Adena was scared, of what he would do to her, but she was a rebel, she couldn't help it. She wanted to tell him what she thought about him.
"You're heartless" she said again, more audible.
Logan chuckled.
"The audacity.." he grinned.
"You're the most selfish person I know. You don't have a heart! I hate you.." Adena said, her lips quivering. She started crying again.
"I hate you!! I will be here on the day of your downfall! And I will watch you suffer and go through the pains you caused me! I hate you!" Adena boldly yelled at him. Logan furrowed his brows.
He walked up to her and landed a resounding slap on her left cheek. Adena fell backwards and hit the wall. She winced and cried out in pain.
Logan's heart skipped a bit when he saw her cry out like that. He was confused.. he didn't even know that his heart could still do that! He moved back, trying to figure out why he felt what he just felt.
Why did his heart do that? Why does he suddenly feel.. bad? For hitting Adena?
He turned to her again and groaned.
"Get out!!" He thundered and a scared Adena scurried away, covering her bare body with the clothes in her hands.
She rushed into her room and banged the door shut, crying profusely.
She wished their was a way she could escape! But Logan's men were everywhere, she would die if she tried to run.. and she would still die if she remained here. What options did she have.
She stood up and entered the bathroom to wash her cum stained body.
💢 New Jersey Hospital 💢
"Good morning" Camilla smiled at Damon who just opened his eyes. He was happy that she was the first person he saw that morning.
"Good morning Camilla" he returned the greeting and struggled to sit upright. Camilla rushed to help him and their eyes locked.
"You have, such beautiful eyes" Damon whispered. Camilla blushed, she couldn't believe what was happening to her. She never thought, she would love again!
"Good morning uncle!!" Zoey screeched and they broke their stare.
"Good morning big girl!" Damon said, as Zoey climbed into the hospital bed with him.
"I'm hungry uncle Damon" she whined, scratching her head.
"I need to go back to the penthouse and get Zoey's things. Her clothes and mine as well. And also some cash, all I have here is my atm" Damon rubbed his forehead and sighed.
"Well obviously you can't go in this condition, look at you. You can barely sit" Camilla said, looking at his injured shoulder.
"But it's necessary"
"I'll go for you. Just give me the keys and directions. I'll get everything you need" Camilla smiled.
"Oh.. I don't want you to stress yourself"
"I insist" she snapped.
"Alright then, but let Zoey go with you, she'll be a big help" Damon agreed.
He gave Camilla the keys to his penthouse and also the directions, then he sent Zoey off with him. He was surprised at himself, because normally he wouldn't trust anyone with his niece.
As soon as Camilla left with Zoey, a smartly dressed nurse walked into the ward, she checked his vital signs and changed his bandage before telling him that he had a visitor.
"Who?" Damon wondered. She asked the nurse to let the person in.
"Damon!!"
Damon recognized that annoying voice. He groaned.
"Anastasia?" He asked, his facial expression become sour after seeing her.
"Omg!! Look at your terrible condition, why did Logan do this?" She ranted, buzzing around him like a bee.
"What are you doing here Anastasia?" He asked, flinging her hand away from his.
"Oh Damon. You know how much I love you, don't you? I'm here to take good care of you" she answered, giggling like a high school student.
"There are enough nurses here to take care of me, besides Logan won't be happy to know you're here.. you're part of his dynasty" Damon said with an eyeroll.
He was still feeling bad for betraying his friend, but he felt more anger that Logan had the guts to shoot at him.
"Oh please! I'm not scared of Logan. He can do whatever he wants, I'm going to stick with you. Plus, the nurses won't be able to take care of you the way I will" she winked at him, lowering her body so that Damon could see her heavy b0obs.
"Is everything about s3x to you?" Damon asked. Anastasia was shocked.
"Look who's talking! The s3x lord himself!" She giggled.
"Look, I don't have time for this. I already have someone who's taking perfect care of me, and she's good at it" Damon said, a smile crept up on his face when he thought about Camilla.
"Who? That ugly b*itch I saw downstairs with your niece?" Anastasia scoffed, she was jealous.
"Let that be the last time you speak of Camilla in that tone" Damon was angry.
"You can't possibly choose her over me! We've been together for years! You've f*cked me so many times, you don't expect me to forget all of that and let you fall for that a*shole daughter of a b*tch!" Anastasia raged.
"I told you not to call her names! Get out Anastasia! I don't need you here, please get the f*ck out!" Damon screamed.
"Damon, you.." she started shedding tears.
"Nurse!!" Damon shouted.
"It's fine, I'll leave, but this isn't the end" Anastasia grabbed her handbag and walked out of the ward in anger. She went back to the hotel she was lodged in and cried her eyes out.
She has done nothing but love Damon, she turned down every suitor just to be with him. She let him have s3x with her whenever he wanted. And now, he chooses Camilla over her? She wasn't going to let that happen.
She picked up the phone and dailed Delaney's number.
📞 "Hello, Delaney"
📞 "Hey bestie.. what's the matter? You don't sound good"
📞 "It's Damon, he has another b*itchy girlfriend!"
📞 "So? Must be one of his sl*ts!"
📞 "No Delaney, he loves this one, like seriously. I don't want to lose Damon, I need your help"
📞 "Okay, calm down. Just come back to New York, we'll do something to take care of the b*tch"
📞 "Thanks bestie, I'll be back tomorrow"
Anastasia dropped the phone and smiled in satisfaction. She knew Delaney. Delaney was sinister and would be of help to separate Camilla and Damon. Then, she would make sure, Damon never looks at another woman except her.
Adena wasn't expecting Logan to call for her so soon after what happened between them the previous night. But he did, it was a cold and windy night, and he needed her to subdue his urges.
Adena reluctantly entered his room and found him by the glass window, looking down at the city. She fumed with hatred, wishing she could strangle the beast.
Knowing there wasn't much she could do, she started to undress. She was almost n@ked when Logan groaned loudly and held his head in his palms. Adena was shocked. She watched as he staggered to his bed and continued to grown in pains.. it looked intense.
"Goddamit! Don't just stand there, open the damned cupboard and get my medicine case!!" Logan shrieked.
Adena had two choices, leave him to suffer and die, or help him with his medicine so that he can maltreat her all over again.
The choice was very clear, but she couldn't do it. She bit her lip in spite as her conscience kept pushing her to help the very same man she hated with passion.
Her legs seemed to move faster than her, she found herself digging around the cupboard until she found the medicine case. Logan stretched his hand for it, and she hesitantly have it to him.
Logan poured two tablets into his mouth and sipped some water. His breathing was heavy and he was shivering.
"Another seizure.." Adena whispered. She watched him get into his bed and drift off to sleep in the twinkle of an eye.
She was relieved that he didn't touch her that night, but she was left wondering what the f*ck was going on with the fiercest man she ever knew.
Adena turned to leave, disappointed in herself for helping Logan, when she heard groans coming from Logan again. She turned to him and found him struggling on the bed, he was having yet another nightmare.
"What should I do now?" She bit her lip. She found a small bowl by his cupboard and used it to get some water from the bathroom. Then she took his towel.
Standing by his bed, she watched him twist and turn, like he was going to die any minute. She couldn't resist the urge to help him, but she still wanted him dead. What was wrong with her?
"Humanity" her subconscious whispered.
She sighed and sat on his bed, it was soft and comfortable. She had never had the pleasure to touch his bed, let alone sit on it. He would be angry if he found out she sat on it.
She dabbed the towel in the water and carefully massaged his head and face with it. He placed the wet towel over his forehead and he calmed down after a few minutes. She stood up to leave but his hand gripped her finger tightly.
Adena tried to pull her hand out but Logan was very strong. She sat back and sighed. She didn't even know when she fell asleep, by his side, with him holding her finger tightly.
💢 6:11am 💢
Logan stretched on the bed and blinked his eyes open. He lay there for a few seconds before turning to see Adena on his bed. He flinched, making her jerk from her sleep.
"Good.. good morning master" she shivered, expecting a slap or something worse.
"What the f*ck do you think you're doing? Who told you that you were permitted to sleep on by bed, you dirty slave!?" He fired, she stood there like a wet chicken, her gaze fixed to the floor.
"I don't let dirty slaves sleep on my bed! You have no f*cking right!! Now get out!" He screamed, outraged.
Adena rushed towards the door, but stopped and turned to him.
"Your life was in my hands last night, I could have let you die, but I gave you back your life. Be rest assured that next time, you won't be waking up to see the light of day. Ungrateful monster" she said in anger and ran out before he could say anything to her.
Logan sat there, shocked. None of his slaves ever summoned up the courage to talk to him the way she did.. she was different. He smirked when he thought about her.
"You're doing something to me.. slave" he smirked again and entered the bathroom.
"Good morning Adena" Antoinette beamed when Adena entered the kitchen.
"Good morning Antoinette, good morning ma" Adena greeted, frowning.
"Good morning dear, why do you look so upset?" Liliana asked.
"Ma! You won't believe how ungrateful that son of a b*tch is! He had a seizure, and another nightmare, but I saved his life. This morning, he simply yelled at me instead of thanking me" Adena narrated bitterly.
"Logan will never learn.. I'm afraid he's scarred for life" Liliana shook her head.
"Scarred for life? What do you mean by that?" Adena asked.
"Tell us ma, why is Logan always having nightmares?" Antoinette added.
"It was the tragic incident that happened in these very walls when he was just 9" Liliana sighed. She looked up to see two pairs of eyes staring at her with enthusiasm.
"He was only 9 when his father's arch enemy invaded this house, he took everything from him.. I had to run away with him and return months later!" Liliana refused to tell the full story.
"What was taken away from him? His money?" Adena asked.
"Money?" Liliana chuckled.
"Money was the least of his problems! I can't say what it was, I hate remembering that incident, it makes me cringe" Liliana shuddered.
"But ma" Antoinette protested.
"Enough. Get back to work. Adena, please take your breakfast to your room. You know Logan doesn't like you being out of your room" Liliana changed the topic and returned to her cooking.
Adena was disappointed that she couldn't get all the information she wanted, she took her food in a tray and went upstairs.
💢 New Jersey 💢
Damon had been discharged from the hospital and he went back home with Zoey and Camilla. He was surprised that Camilla stayed with him this long, but he liked it.
"No Tyson! I'm not coming back!" Camilla yelled on the phone and dropped it with force on the table, then groaned.
Damon, who was sitting on the couch with Zoey turned instantly.
"That was your brother, what do you mean you're not going back?" He questioned.
Camilla was about to speak when she looked at Zoey, she couldn't say anything with Zoey sitting there. Damon noticed and asked Zoey to go to her room, giving them some privacy.
"I told you I had to sneak out to come here. My brother is on my neck right now, he forbade me from seeing you and now he wants me back home" Camilla explained and sighed, folding her arms.
"Oh" Damon said. He knew he had to do the right thing. He loved Camilla, more than anything, but he had no rights over her.
"I think you should go back to your brother Camilla" he said. She glared at him with widened eyes.
"Do you realize what you're saying? If I go.. we might never see each other again" Camilla said, sounding somewhat scared.
She had started to like Damon a lot, possibly, she was in love with him and couldn't bear to be away from him.
"I'm sorry Cam.." he said lovingly and called her to sit next to him. He caressed her cheek and smiled at her.
"You have to go. Your brother wants the best for you, he's just protecting you. I would act the same way if it was Zoey. Do you want him to come here with a fleet of men to get you and possibly kill me? You know he's powerful" he paused and Camilla shook her head, fighting the tears from falling.
"You should go. I also have unfinished business. I have to go back and apologise to Logan" Damon said, Camilla was shocked to her bones.
"Apologize? But he tried to murder you" she reminded, Damon chuckled.
"I betrayed him, he trusted me. I miss my best friend and I want us to sort out our issues. He could have killed me, but he shot my shoulder instead, knowing I would survive" Damon explained.
"No Damon, don't try to make excuses for him. He obviously doesn't love you" Camilla was surprised at his good heart.
"I'm not, honestly. I want to go back home, to my best friend and make things right. He'll apologize too, you'll see it. Logan can't get anything done without me" he bragged. Camilla smiled, the tears she had been holding back, fell freely down her cheeks.
Damon wiped her tears.
"You should go. Tyson is worried about you. I don't know if I'll see you again but.." he paused and pulled her gently into a warm hug. She wept on his shoulder.
"I lo.." he paused again, he couldn't say it, not now.
Camilla wished he would say it, but he didn't. She hugged him tighter.
