LOGAN'S FRIEND ZONE

As we arrived at my rest house, I could glimpse the surprised look on her face and it was evident she adored the view. I gave her a side peek as we finished the checking vicinity of the first entrance, then drove to the main area, after the second check.

I opened the door and stepped out, she did the same without seizing her eyes off the surroundings, she nourished looking around awestruck.

I know my boss is affluent but what my sights are glimpsing is way beyond phrases, I now apprehend why he's this proud, he has everything, as in everything, and he doesn't require anything to make him feel distinct. As for feelings I'm sure he's as tough as rock, there's nothing in there.

Do you like the scenery?? I asked.

Yes! It's so lovely I mean check out these fountains, they are glorious the plants are so green, and the house is like an empire of its own.

Come inside.

He said walking in freely

If what I saw outdoors was like a kingdom then this is paradise. It looks very stunning and extraordinary, the floor tiles were ebony marble, and his dining table was white glass Mabel with gold stripes on the sides. The chairs were gold in colour, his living room was three times more enormous than regular living rooms, his couches were the luxurious type, white with gold hands, and each wall had architect mirrors with ascent lights. He gave me a tour showing me places around the place.

It's late you need to catch some rest, I'll show you to your room. You can proceed with your tour tomorrow at sunrise.

How about the job? I asked following him behind.

Cancelled!!

What?!!

Yes

You can't go around telling me what to do and what not to do.

It's for the best.

For the best you say? Who's going to take care of my bills, my house, my shopping??

I never told you I desired to change my home, did I??

For fuck sake shut up for a second will you?

This woman is making me lose my sanity, I've been pissed off twice today already.

Till you tell me the truth, else I'm leaving this place Logan!

Fine leave and get killed!

he spat and turned walking away.

Get killed? I asked in a low tone.

Yes!

But why would anyone want me dead? I haven't done anything wrong, have I?

I asked no one in particular, and

he paused in his steps.

I have no idea as to why anyone would wish for you dead, which is why I brought you here because you'll be secure here.

A tear rolled down her cheeks.

That's why there was an unconscious man in my ward,..and why you were so pissed, and asked me to leave the hospital?

Yes!

But... why would you even care? For all we know you may be the next target. I don't want anything to happen to you because of me, she panicked.

Don't worry No one would dare to come here, no matter what happens.

I assured her

Please calm down okay?

But,

No buts, I'll be okay.

said wiping away my tears, follow me I'll take you to your room.

Okay...

I pursued him using the elevator, this man had the money and ways of avoiding pressure even in his own home. We got out and walked to the far-end intersection of the hallway, where he stopped.

This is going to be your room, everything you need is in there, and as for your shopping, make a list of the things you'll be requiring and you'll have them by tomorrow evening, is that okay?

Yes, thank you.

I answered meekly as he turned to leave

wait, Logan!.. Where's your room?

Just on the other side of the hallway, the one with the gold handle. he replied and spun on his heels to depart.

So.

If you need anything, you just knock.

he said as he kept striding to his room, unlocked the door, entered and locked the door

Wow! So much for existing in Logan's friend zone!

I said that out loud to myself

Get into your room, Nalani!

His voice startled me and I quickly unlocked the door and went in.

Wow so much for talking in the hallway Nalani!

As I shut the door behind me, I couldn't take my eyes off the room. Like what does this guy have with mirrors? Every corner of the room had gigantic designer mirrors and there was an entirely new section that was immense, it looked like a walk-in closet, with just female nightwear. They appeared rather too comfy for my liking. I don't know if it's my amnesia influencing me or if it's me because I don't find conservative outfits imploring. I admire sexy outfits, Like this brief and vers, transparent Lacey nightwear. At least this will do for the night. I grabbed it and found my way to the restroom where I took a bath, got swathed and went to bed.

LOGAN'S pov

Was in my room scribbling through some papers, when I recalled there was something I left in that room. I looked at the time and it was 4:00 AM. She must be fast asleep now. I resolved to go and snatch it before she got up. I slowly unlocked the door to her chamber and she was fast asleep, I went to the bedside cabinet, opened it and took out the small box that was in it and was about to turn away when I saw her face. Damn, she's very exquisite! I think this friend thing was a bad thought, My eyes trailed from her brows to her long lashes and her well-defined nose and I got stuck on her rosy lips. Fuck she's a freaking temptress even in her sleep. I feel like claiming those lips right now. What in heaven's name is going on with me? Why am I having this strong force towards a total stranger? The last time I felt this way was at the auction, my brows creased at the realization that this is occurring for the third time, at the auction, at the club, and now. I need to look out for myself before I do something crazy. She adjusted her sleeping position and the blanket shifted downwards. That's when I discovered she was wearing see-through nightwear, her milky skin complemented the lace nightwear, her round mound wear skimming like a snack with her nipples pointing upward. Glancing at her right now, was like willingly shoving myself into temptation. With all my willpower I pulled myself to sanity and wrapped her up. I felt her twitch but before anything else could occur I slipped out of the room and went directly to mine. Boozed a drink of cold water before going to bed.
