My Vengeful-Ex

Chapter 56

Christina

A couple of days passed with Logan and I sneaking at any chance we got to a secluded place for making out or having sex. Even though he sneaked into my room at night, we stayed awake till dawn, talking and making love. We couldn't stay away from each other for long during the daytime.

I came to the stables while Logan was busy discussing the renovation plans with Aunt Anne. I took Athena for a ride and returned nearly two hours later. The stable boy was cleaning the stalls when I escorted Athena inside.

"Good afternoon, My Lady," He greeted me the moment he noticed me.

"Good afternoon, Charlie," I replied with a polite smile, then strolled towards Athena's stall, holding her reins.

After ensuring there was food and water inside her stall, I closed the door and was leaving when Charlie suddenly flew out of a stall two stalls down from Athena's and hit the stall door from across it.

I rushed to him, and Charlie groaned, rubbing his head. When he pulled his hand from the back of his head, there was blood on it.

"Oh my God. You are bleeding. What happened?" I asked aghast.

"Bolt kicked me," he groaned again, but that time it was full of pain.

Bolt was the new black stallion. I turned to his stall and immediately shut the door before he could escape it. The stallion had a temper and never allowed anyone close other than George.

I helped Charlie get up and then dragged him to the corner with the stack of hay. Making him sit there, I looked for the first aid box George used to keep in the stables for such emergencies and found it in an old cupboard in the corner.

"Please, My Lady, I will tend to it myself," Charlie tried to protest, but one glare from me turned him silent.

It was against the protocol that I dress his wound, but it would be against humanity if I left him to do it himself. I opened the first aid box and began wiping the blood from the back of his head, where he got hit by the door handle.

It was good that his hair was short at the back of his head. Otherwise, it would have been a problem to clean and dress it up. Thankfully, the wound wasn't deep enough to require stitches. I applied an antiseptic, placed cotton over it, and tied a bandage.

Charlie kept talking and joking while I cleaned his other scratches. I laughed at something he said when I felt someone's smoldering gaze on me. My eyes snapped in that direction and met with an enraged pair of deep brown orbs.

Was Logan mad at me?

Why?

Logan's jaw clenched, and his eyes bore into mine. I couldn't remember doing anything that might make him angry, so I wondered what the matter was.

Charlie followed my gaze. When he noticed Logan, he stopped talking and jerked up from the hay.

"Thank you, My Lady. I will take your leave now," he mumbled in panic and hurried out of the stables.

I stared at his back, then turned to Logan, who still glared at me, "What were you doing?" Logan inquired in a low growl.

I stared at him, startled; what was the matter with him? Why was he acting so weird all of a sudden?

"Christina, I asked you something," he took a threatening step towards me.

"What do you mean?" I asked, puzzled.

"I asked what were you doing with Charlie?"

"What?"

Was he jealous of Charlie? How could he even think something like that? Didn't he notice Charlie was hurt, and I only helped him?

"Don't try my patience, Christina," Logan gritted as he ate the distance between him and me.

"Are you blind? Didn't you see I was nursing his wounds," I spat in anger.

I didn't like his possessive attitude a bit. Logan didn't own me and had no right to tell me who I could or couldn't help.

"I am not talking about you helping him," he hissed.

"Then?" I asked, confused.

"Why were you laughing?" Logan grabbed my chin roughly.

What?

He was mad because I laughed at something Charlie said. Was Logan out of his mind?

"What do you mean?" I asked, perplexed.

He lowered his hand from my chin to my throat and wrapped his hand around it in a firm grip but not tight enough to choke me. I was able to breathe, but it created a sweet twinge.

"You are mine, Christina. Your smiles, your laughs, your kisses, and every fucking thing belongs to me and no one else. Do you understand?" He whispered in a husky voice that traveled straight to my core.

I knew it was madness. Logan's possessiveness shouldn't turn me on, but I couldn't help it. His low, threatening voice made me weak in my knees. Logan pulled my face close by my throat until our lips almost brushed, and his deep brown eyes bored into mine.

"Do you understand?" He repeated in a restrained growl.

I shook my head to see how he would react to my defiance. Logan tightened his hold on my throat, and I gasped.

"I see you are in the mood of playing games," his voice was a low caress over my skin.

"Are you going to punish me for my defiance?" I provoked.

The truth was Logan's dominating demeanor thrilled and terrified me, and I wanted to test his limits.

"Maybe," he murmured, with a strange glint in his eyes.

"I want to get punished," I blurted out, and Logan smirked.

"You are not the good girl you pose to be in front of everyone," he stroked my neck.

"I never claimed to be a good girl," I smirked at him.

Logan pulled me into a harsh kiss as a punishment for defying him. He pulled away when we both were short of air, then dropped on the haystack, pulling me across his lap.

He held the back of my neck with one hand, pulled down my riding pants with the other, and caressed my bare cheek.

"Ready for your punishment?" He asked me, and my heart thudded against my ribcage so hard I was afraid it would break out of it.

Would Logan spank me?

I tried to look at him over my shoulder, but his hand on the nape of my neck made it impossible.

"You won't dare," I ground my teeth.

"Is that a challenge I hear in your voice?" Logan's voice was full of amusement.

"Logan, release me now," I exclaimed, appalled.

"Not so eager for your punishment now, are you?" He mused in his sexy as fuck voice.
