Fatal Affairs

Chapter Twenty-Three

Andrea barged into Logan's study.
"Don't tell me you left the party early because of that panic attack girl"

Logan pinched the bridge of his nose and groaned.

Andrea sat on a chair facing Logan.

Logan drank the whiskey from his glass in one gulp.
"Who is panic attack girl?"

Andrea scoffed.
"The girl you brought home with you"

"Her name is Iris" Logan filled his glass with whiskey.

"I don't fucking care" Andrea replied as she smiled at her brother.

"Since when do you care about the girls around me?" Logan asks.

"By that you mean the playthings you fuck?" Andrea blinked at Logan.

Logan stared at her before scoffing.
"So you came here to lecture me"

"No, Duke wanted to speak to you at the party but of course you already left doing God knows what and you weren't answering my calls" Andrea explained, she reached for Logan's cup and drank his whiskey.

"Duke isn't my boss, if he wants to speak to me he should book an appointment" Logan replied.

"But he is the head of the table, he should be given some respect"

"Do not preach to me about respect, I'm a member of the table and you are not, so I think I know the rules more than you do, I stand by what I say, if he wants to talk he should book an appointment"
Logan stood up.

Andrea stood up too.
"You don't have to rub it in my face Logan"

"You asked for it little sister" Logan walked out of his study.

Andrea rolled her eyes before following him.

""""""""""""""""""""""""""

"I'm so sure he is in the mafia, I mean different men were lurking around every corner of the house like they were on guard, it was hard to notice some of them, and you should see his cook, a beautiful black lady, it's really hard to believe that she is just a cook, the guy who drove me here really gave me the creeps" Iris gushed to Sheri.

"Wow" Sheri commented nodding her head slowly.

"But you still haven't told me why you were at the mansion in the first place"

"I... I..." Iris stuttered.

"Just tell the truth" Sheri nudged her in the side.

Iris let out a heavy breath.
"Ariel is going to fucking kill me"

Sheri frowned.
"Kill you?"

Her eyes widened.
"Did you fuck Luca?"

Iris shook her head.

Sheri sighed.
"So why will you say that, last I checked you are the one upset with him and he is still seeking your forgiveness"

"I fucked Logan" Iris blurted out.

Sheri's jaw dropped.

Iris held Sheri's hand.
"I know I've really messed things up but when I'm with him........it's like....like my brain goes on a vacation"

Sheri released herself from Iris' grip.
"I'm glad you know you are in a deep mess"

Iris looked like she wanted to cry.

Sheri stood up.
"Just so you know, King is angry that you didn't come to the club to dance last night, he called Parker to vent his anger"

Iris groaned.

"I hope you can sort this shit out since you got your self into it with your eyes open" Sheri said, she turned and walked out of the room.

Iris buried her fingers into her blond hair. She closed her eyes and the image of Logan's sweaty shirtless body popped up.

"Hey baby"

Iris shrieked, she opened her eyes to see a smiling Ariel.

Iris sighed as she touched her chest.
"You scared me".

Ariel leaned in and kissed her before seating on the bed beside her.

"I haven't forgiven you yet that means no kissing" Iris said.

"Baby come on" Ariel touched her face looking at her fondly.
The feeling of guilt washed over her.

"Where......." Ariel started to speak.

"I forgive you" Iris interrupted him.

He brightened up.
"I love you baby"

Ariel hugged her and kissed her forehead.

Ariel pulled away with a smile on his face.

Iris knew she only said she forgave him because she knew he was going to ask where she was last night and she was never actually angry at Ariel, she just pretended to impress Sheri.

"I want us to do this" Ariel said.

He held her hands in his.
"From now on, no secrets, I'll tell you everything and you also do the same, deal?"

Ariel released her hands and streched his hand for a handshake.

Iris forced out a giggle as she shook his hand.
"Deal"

Ariel brought her hand to his lips and kissed the back of her hand.
" I love you baby"

Iris cleared her throat.
"I love you too baby"
