What Is Love? (BWWM)

Chp 53: Pain doesn't die

Logan P.O.V

"We can't be together anymore " I sat frozen trying to register her words in my head but I couldn't seem to register the current situation we found ourselves in.

"W-What did you say" I asked her to repeat herself for the third time hoping that what I heard was nothing but a fluke. That I was still dreaming that the women who I had just made love to and poured all of my emotions into was still lying in bed with her body wrapped tightly in my grasp.

But The vision in which I imagined was nothing but a cold reminder of her words that cut even deeper hearing it again. She sighed aloud and dropped her eyes before peering back to me "Whatever this is... Whatever this was it's over. This was a mistake from the beginning and I knew it." She said with her arms crossed and voice stern.

I still sat completely clueless until it hit me. I let out a nervous chuckle and let relief roll over me like a wave once I had finally figured it out. I'd finally figured her out. We've been through this same loop before.  After last night her walls probably went back up and like time and time again I was going to disarm her all over again. "Hey whatever's bothering you it's going to be okay." I sat the trey of food down before turning back to her. "I'm right her-" I reached a hand out for her and in that same breath she took a step back making my brows furrow. I looked back towards her and my heart dropped that's when I realized she was serious. Her eyes were cold and her face blazed with anger and frustration. Such a cold expression, you would think she was looking at a stranger.

Anxiety began to settle into the deep pits of my stomach followed by dread. We sat silent locked in a quiet conversation. Both of us testing each other to see the tension that now settled in the room was genuine or just a mere disagreement. My chest heaved up and down trying to catch my fleeting breaths. I spoke up first. my voice gentle and cautious " Patience are you okay?... Did something happen because if it did we can talk about this"

"Don't talk to me like I'm a child" She sneered

"Then please tell me what's wrong? Did I do something wrong? Did I go to far with talking about miller corp? Because if I did I'm sorry" I was desperate to correct my mistakes even if I didn't remember what. I just didn't want to loose her.

"You're not sorry. Because you did this to me" My brows furrowed even more in confusion. "You stole my life from me. I was happy being alone I was content on just running miller corp and fucking any man I saw fit. I was free. I wasn't obligated to anybody but now... you're always there your like a fucking knat that doesn't go away. But then again it was my own fault. I should've let you go the moment I fucked you."

Her words stung. "Y-you're lying you don't believe that. I know you don't. Patience if I did something wrong I can fix it I promise but this" I took some shaky breaths my fists clenched. She ticked her tongue and rolled her eyes. "You still don't get it. I used you. Whatever this was doesn't exist. You think it was pure coincidence that we kept meeting again and again after that night in the club. From the second that your friend 'mistakenly' left supplies on my floor on the day of one of my biggest meeting, to you being able to get passed Jessie thanks to the help of a certain young man who by the way I paid to get you and your little friend in." The memories spun around in my mind like a dream as my heart dropped to my feet. What she was saying couldn't be true it couldn't be.

"Shocking I know it is darling. I know your thinking but why, why would I go through all of that for you. And really it's quite simple. I've never meet a man like you before. I saw how gentle you were even after being heartbroken how you still loved after what she did and I wanted to experience those type of emotions for myself. And I must say any woman would be happy to have a man who's talented both emotionally and physically" She purred waving me off.
