[Madiya POV]
When I left the dining trying to protect myself from the strangers in front of me, I noticed Logan felt kind of pity for me. As he approached trying to take me in his arms. I obviously refused him touching me.
And then he called the same dude we were with a while ago. They took the road leading to the balcony to have a word. I only saw them from the window, and I could tell Logan was angry while talking to him. I was beginning to ask if the scene I put out there got him mad.
I buried the fears, and decided to gather some courage. I dragged out a chair and tuck myself, my hands were placed on the table and supporting my chin.
"You seem not to be happy, from what I can see. My grandma and her maids have put a lot into getting this piece for you, and you take yourself for the moon goddess, is that it?" Debilla's voice jerked me out of my reverie.
"Enough sister, please let her be." I overhead Logan's booming voice.
Goodness, what a stressful day it was for me. My birthday ruined, some lady standing close to me talking down on me, and now the stranger himself putting his family at back for me.
I wonder what made me accept James proposal to be my boyfriend. If I knew he only accepted to be my boyfriend for fucking two years just to have a taste of me and further abandoned me, I would have declined his request. Now I am stranded, in the middle of nowhere and about to spend some few days with people I know nothing about.
A smile escaped from my lips, when the older maid walked up to me, informing me my room was ready. Gosh, I was so happy, leaving the dining for my room. I was beginning to get uncomfortable with all the faces around me.
"Would you mind if I escort you to your new room?" Logan said, plopping his bright eyes on my face. Damn, he was so handsome. The little dark point under his lower lips, got me losing my mind.
"Madiya!" Before I could realize Logan was calling on my name for the third time, I found myself loss, observing his beautiful lips. Oh my goodness, Madiya control yourself. He is a stranger for crying out loud.
"Yes, Mr. Logan." I gasp, taking off my eyes from his beautiful lips to his handsome face.
"Are you okay?" he asked, trying to place his hand on my knuckles.
"Yes, I'm fine." I said, nonchalantly.
"Sure?" he asked, looking straight into my eyes. Like my answer wasn't persuasive enough.
I found myself permitting him to walk me to my room, instead of the maid. He was in front of me, while I was at his back, observing every move of his. We took the stairs and in no time we were up. We crossed three doors, the next one after that, he stopped and faced me, saying it was his room. He crossed two more doors, and boom he unfurled the next room.
"Here we are, miss Madiya Johnson. Your room, hope you love it?" he announced, standing close to the door, leaving space for me to get into the room reserved for me.
