"Hello, I'm so glad you guys could make it!"
Charlie was already playing with Max, I could feel Logan staring at me.
"We need to talk," he said in a tone that made me question if I did something wrong.
"About?"
"I know."
His facial expression made me stop breathing, I could feel my heart beat faster.
He knew, has he told anyone? How did he find out? Had someone said something to him?! What if he tells someone? I gulped and shut the door.
"Wha-what do you know exactly?"
He gave me an incredulous look, "Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about, I had someone investigate you."
I gasped, how could he? This was an invasion of privacy. I knew people like him, they would dig dirt on people and bring them down harshly.
"Why did you do that? How could you do this to me?"
His facial expression was unreadable. His eyes looked cold and his shoulders screamed superiority.
"Because I needed to know what I got myself into."
"I trusted you," I said as my voice betrayed me and cracked.
"If you really did you would have told me your name isn't Carmen."
"What do you want from me?"
I was angry now, he had not right.
"Let's make a deal, as you know, the tabloids have exploited those pictures and twisted them to their own convenience. I need it to seem as if I'm committed to this, I need you to be my girlfriend. It's something you can't refuse because I know something that can end you, and I doubt that your management would say no now that I know this information about you."
I looked at him, and clenched my jaw. I couldn't put words to my thoughts, all I was thinking was that this man isn't who I thought he was. What I once thought was charm turned out to be arrogance.
"And if I refuse?"
"Consider yourself done with your career," he stated simply.
"I can't believe that you stooped so low."
He simply shrugged his shoulders and turned to Charlie.
"We need to go bud, say bye to Max and Carmen."
There was a glint in his eyes and a smirk that chilled me to the bone appeared on his lips.
"You'll be hearing from my lawyers," he whispered in my ear.
He grabbed my jaw and kissed it roughly. He walked out of my door and left without saying another word. I was left dumbstruck, and now I had a tingling sensation on the spot he touched.
I immediately called management, I was scared.
"He what?!" Sadie screamed into the phone.
"I didn't know, what do I do?"
"Well you're going to have to do what he asks otherwise, like he said, your career could be over. I told you this would happen."
Before I called Sadie I cried hysterically on my bathroom floor. I couldn't remember the day where I didn't live in worry of being found out.
If Logan was able to dig it up, it made me wonder how many people could or have. If he's capable of this, what else could he do? What if in the near future he tells everyone?
