Sebasitan went to the door. Opening it to find a lavish looking young man with curly blonde hair.

"Hello! I'm here to see my lovely fiancée. It's been soooooo long." The man said as he rudely pushed past Sebastian and into the house.

So this was the man she was to marry. Unbelievable.

" I'm sorry Sir but i must ask you to leave. The young master is busy at breakfast."

"Do you not understand who I am!? The absolute insolence!"

Logan stepped out of the dining room. Her face emotionless. "Hello, Edward. Its been a while."

"Logan my dear! It has hasnt it!" He waltzed to her, head held high and a charming smile on his lips. Taking her hand and kissing the back of her hand. Logan straightened her posture. "I would appreciate if you didnt treat this as your own estate and barge in. The insolent one is you."

Edward frowned but it quickly disappeared into his normal charming smile. "You never seemed to care before. You have changed."

"Of course I have. Everything has changed since the fire." Logan said. "Since you're already here we might as well talk." She turned to Sebastian.

"Sebastian would you please bring some tea to the garden? Since its such a lovely day it would be good to converse there."

Sebastian bowed. "Yes, my lady. Any preference for the brand?"

"Earl grey would do just fine." She said as she started walking to the garden. "If you'd follow me, Edward."

*time skip*

It had been hours since edward showed up and he was greatly overstaying his welcome. As well as wearing Logan's nerves thin.

"What happened to you to change so much? No more nicknames and joking around? You loved sweet things and now you don't seem to care for them." Edward lounged back in his chair, demanding more than asking.

Logan tensed, her teeth grinding. "I dont wish to talk about it."

Edward scowled again. "I need to know if your purity is in tact."

"Thats not even relevant to what you asked!" Logan stood from her chair, outraged. "My patience with you has run thin. If i dont want to talk about it then i dont want to. "

Edward stood and snatched Logan by the wrist, his grip rough and possessive. "You are MY fiancée. I will not have some impure whore for a wife!"

"Let go of me!" Logan cried. Her body shaking.

Sebastian quickly ran to the garden, sensing her distress. He arrived just in time to see Edward slap her across the face, her head turning from the impact. "Now you'll behave and tell me what i want to know."

Sebastian quickly separated edward from her, holding a dinner knife to his throat. "My lady should I dispose of him?"

Edward struggled "What do you think you're doing!? Unhand me!"

"You attacked my lady. You're now trespassing with vicious intent."

Logan's eyes widened, her nostrils flaring as a scent washed over her senses. Her eyes flashing red.

"Logan. Dont focus on that. Snap out of it."

"How dare you address her by her name you daft butler!" Edward snapped. "Tell him to let me go, love."

"Dont worry Sebastian. Its filthy. Repulsive." Logan stood straight, looking at Edward.

"What are you two talking about!?" Edward shouted.

Logan grinned, her eyes glowing. "We're talking about your soul." Edwards eyes widened, beginning to shake. "W-what ARE you!?"

"Take a wild guess. Though i would be more worried about the one holding you captive. He wasnt ever human." Logan looked at Sebastian. "We cant kill him. But hes seen too much. We need to do something about him."

"I can wipe his memory if you'd like. "

"Very well. But only of the past few minutes. It would be hard to explain why he is here already."

"As you wish, my love."

*time skip*

Edward stayed without farther incident. But when it came time to leave he seemed to have every excuse to stay.

"Its gotten dark. Cant I stay the night?"

"That's quite questionable. What would people say if they learned you spent the night at your fiancée's manor? Surely it would raise suspicion." Logan pointed out. She wasnt sure how much more she could take pretending to be happy talking with him and that she had intentions to marry him.

"You worry too much! No one would dare spread rumors!" Edward continued to press.

"Theres already plenty of rumors about you. Many suggesting you've been very... how should i say? Freelanced?"

"Absurd! Why would people think that? I have a lovely fiancée to marry. Speaking of the marriage my parents decided that it would be best to be wed as soon as possible."

Logan's eyes widened. "Dont tell me they set the date without me knowing."

"Its set for the day after your birthday! Isnt that wonderful!?" Edward clasped her hand between his, kissing her fingers. "I cant wait to finally be your husband."

Logan faked a smile her teeth clenched. "That is wonderful indeed."
