CHAPTER FOUR

Logan had gone to see his stepmum after he left the penthouse. She was so happy to see him.
“You should come home often, son. I doubt you miss me anytime,” Evelyn said as she hugged Logan who in turn pecked her.
“I am here because I miss you," Logan said as he placed his right hand on her shoulder. "You have become prettier, mum. I want to toast you," Logan said as he sat her down on the sofa.
"If you are trying to make me feel better about getting old, or staying away for a long time, then just bring me a lady, Logan." Evelyn smiled touching his right cheek.
"Just give me sometime. I'm taking my time to find a lady as pretty as you are."
“I hate when you do this, Logan,” Evelyn said with a smile.
"What do you hate?" Logan asked.
“You are making an old woman blush unnecessarily. This is unfair.” Evelyn stood up. "Have you had breakfast? I will tell the housekeeper to fix you something," Evelyn said as she smiled at her son. Even though she was not his biological mother, she had always loved Logan like her own and trained him in the very best way and for once, she never regretted it. She always wanted to see him every single time.
“I had breakfast already. I only came to see your face,” Logan said as Evelyn sat beside him again.
"I hope you have not been going through any challenges. I will be travelling to Paris tomorrow; I have something urgent to attend to," she said waiting for his reply.
Everything has been going well. I have had lots of work recently. It's been tough but I am coping well. Asides that, I am fine." Logan’s phone rang immediately. "Sorry mum, I have to pick this. It is from home." He stood up after she gave him a look that implied understanding. "Hello Mrs Bridget. Is everything alright?" It was his housekeeper.
"Mr Rodriguez, there is a lady waiting for you. Security is keeping her waiting at the first floor. I just want to know if you were coming home soon." Bridget silently waited for his reply, which he gave after two seconds.
"Her name?" he asked.
"She refused to disclose anything about her identity. She said she had an appointment with you today privately," Mrs. Bridget replied.
"Okay. I will see you soon. Make her comfortable with whatever she wants and tell security to keep an eye on her." Logan hung up immediately and turned to his mum. "Something urgent came up, I will call you later." He hugged her briefly and went out. Drake and Andrew were waiting outside for him already. "Were you informed about the situation at my house," Logan asked as he got into the car.
"Yes, sir" drake and Andrew both responded.
A few minutes later, he arrived at home. He knew many women, and he was definitely not expecting Isabella. She was looking prettier than he could remember. "Excuse me," he said to Andrew and Drake.
"Your facial expression right now is not inviting, Logan" Isabella said as she walked towards him.
"Bell, what are you doing here?" he asked with a straight face. She was tempting as always.
“Have I committed a crime trying to see an old friend? Anyways, let’s go in. We need to talk business,” she picked her bag and urged him to let them go in. “You have guards everywhere, we can not talk business here Logan,” she winked as she walked on without his approval, while he followed her. She had already entered the lift, so he joined her. He wished he could send her away but he could not – he missed her, Isabella contributed a lot at the early stage of his career. She stood by him and encouraged him; they had great sex too. It was shocking for him when he saw her riding his best friend; he was disappointed and hurt that he cut all ties with her immediately. "Your password?" Isabella asked.
"four-five-six-nine," he replied.
"Everything here is still the same, nothing new about you either, Logan," she said as she pressed the code and they both entered. She walked in while he followed her. "Logan, I am surprised you still let me come in. You even changed your security agents; even your housekeeper," she said as she sat on a sofa.
"You just said I was allergic to change, Bell.” He walked towards the water dispenser. “Do you care for anything?" Logan said as he poured water into a cup for himself.
“I am fine. Like I said, I came for business. Come sit here and let’s talk,” she said seductively.
"It's fine, Bell. Just go on." Logan drank the water and set back the cup on the water dispenser. "So, what do you want Bell? I am really not in the mood for all this." He was getting impatient due to her silence.
“Logan, I know how upset you are. I am sorry, I let the devil use me." She stood up and walked towards him. “We can make this work, Logan. Please give me another chance. I promise I will be good. I miss us Logan." She began to move very close to him.
“Bell, there is no us anymore. It ended the day you slept with my best friend. If you think I am going to forgive you…" He moved back as she came closer.
“I just need a hug right now, Logan, that is all I ask for." She moved closer as she hugged him tightly, grabbing his lips with hers immediately, caressing him like never before. Logan was definitely enjoying the moment as he placed Isabella on the sofa carefully as he began to carress and kiss her more fiercely like he had never kissed before. He would love to enjoy the moment as it went, at least for today. Logan thought to himself – he last had sex three days ago but he felt like this was all new to him.
"I love you, Logan." Isabella finally managed to say amidst the non-stop kissing.
“I missed you Bell," Logan managed to say as he hungrily ravaged her. He had already brought down her gown while she struggled with his white t-shirt. He removed her bra and pant flinging it just anywhere it could go. No sooner than he started business with her lips again did his phone begin to ring. He ignored the call as he began to finger and kiss Isabella who was panting under him. His phone rang again. “I’m gonna take it there with whosoever is calling," he said angrily as he picked his phone. “Damn!”
It was almost eight. He had totally forgotten he was supposed to meet with Ava. “Listen Bell, you need to go right now. You can go home in any car you want," he said as he hurriedly packed her clothes from the floor.
“Logan, I can wait for you. I planned to sleep over." She bent and began to wear her panties.
"Bell you have to leave. I'll see you tomorrow," Logan said as he hurriedly took out a new shirt from his closet.
"I'll come tomorrow then," Isabella said as she wore her shoe quickly.
He picked up his phone and dialed Ava’s number as he hurried towards the elevator while Drake followed immediately. "Make sure Bell leaves, Drake. I will go with Andrew," he said as he entered the elevator. Ava was not picking his call. He kept calling until the call began to drop. “She must have waited for a long time. Andrew, drive me to Miss Miller house," Logan said as he got into the car in a hurry. For some stupid reason, he was crazy about her, probably he just needed to taste her to quench this hunger. After a few minutes he got to her home.
Ava was so angry as she picked her mother's call. “Hello mum," she said as she struggled out of her shoes.
“Honey, you don’t sound too good. Is everything alright?" Mrs. Miller waited patiently for her daughter's response.
“Mum, I just got stood up unnecessarily. I feel so upset right now,” Ava said as she pulled down the gown Andy helped her pick for her date. It was just a waste, she thought.
“Honey, try to get over it. I will see you tomorrow, or do you want me to come home?" Mrs Miller said waiting for Ava's reply.
“I am fine mum, I can sort myself out"
“Okay. Bye dear,” she said as she hung up.
Ava sat on her dressing stool as she wiped off her makeup, all her hopes of having fun were wasted. She had just let herself get hurt again. She was just trying to get over Liam but she just could not, she should probably just forget Logan and hope for Liam to come back since she still loved him. As she stood up to go to bed, she heard a knock. It could not be Andy, Andy knew she was supposed to be on a date, she thought as she threw on a shirt. She probably thought it was her mum. “Who is there?" she opened the door immediately with her shirt partly covering her butts.
Ava almost shut back the door because she was not expecting something this huge. She completely went blank.
“Pease may I come in, Miss Miller?" Logan asked Ava who seemed to be in shock.
"Come in Mr Rodriguez… I was just not expecting you,” Ava said as she welcomed him in. Only then did she realize she was wearing just a shirt. “What can I offer you, Mr Rodriguez?”
Logan could not help staring at Ava. She was looking prettier than the day before. He wondered how sexy she would look under the shirt. "I am fine. I came to apologize for keeping you waiting. I had a lot to take care of. I promise to make it up to you." Logan stood up as he spoke.
“It is fine. I was not ready either.” Ava was getting uncomfortable as Logan walked towards her . When he came just too close, she began to cough. "Mr Rodriguez, I think you should go. I will see you tomorrow.” Ava managed to say.
"I can”t help it, Ava. I am attracted to you," Logan said as he moved his face very close to her nose.
"I have a boyfriend, Mr Rodriguez,” Ava blurted out without thinking.
"I have a girlfriend too, Miss Miller," Logan whispered to her ear and grabbed her lips immediately. She did not expect this – Rodriguez Logan was kissing her, pushing her towards her door as he kissed her. She was kissing him back like she had wanted this all her life. Ava had totally just wanted a one night stand anyway. It has been long she last had sex; she needed this now. They could well act like strangers tomorrow and she would not mind.
“Take me to the room,” Ava managed to say. Logan whipped her quickly up the stairs to continue his business. She tugged at his tie and shirt while she helped with the buttons. Logan flung his shirt in the air without bothering as he went back to his meal. He raised up Ava's shirt with ease as she struggled for his belt, the way Logan fondled with her breast made her scream so loud. He was a professional. He rubbed her nipple so hard as she cried out in defeat. Logan began to suck Ava's breast. At the same time, she ran her hands all over his back and hair.
“You are beautiful,” Logan said as he began to slide down her panties, while Ava adjusted on the bed. Logan went on biting her nipples and fingering her. She loved it like her life depended on it.
“I want you Logan" Ava rushed the words out. "I want you now Logan,” she repeated again as she dragged Logan’s shorts down his legs.
“Are you sure you want this Ava?" Logan asked as he began to fit between her middle.
“Please Logan, I want you.”
Logan began to thrust into her without caution as she screamed out loud, holding his arms. "Ava, you…"
Ava dragged his head towards her head as she kissed him to shut him up, encouraging him to keep going. Of course, she enjoyed this. He was the perfect stranger to take her innocence without entanglement; at least, someone like Logan would never want to see her anymore, since he had a girlfriend. She sure felt he was her safest. Just then, the point of his climax came as he released his seed into Ava.
“I just had my best night in years, Ava," he said as he fell beside Ava, who was too tired to say anything. "Goodnight Ava."
