Billionaire's Contracted & Unloved Wife - Chapter 129

Chapter 129: Chapter 129 Chapter 129: Chapter 129 That night, Ariel had finished packing her luggage and was ready to leave the next morning; she sat on her bed in her pink pajamas, thinking about how everything was going to be when she went back to the place she’d escaped from three years ago.

She knew it wasn’t going to be easy, and she wasn’t going to be delusional by believing that she wouldn’t run into Aiden Chaz.

He literally owned the States, so she had to prepare herself to accidentally meet him anywhere at any time.

She just had to be strong and not show how hurt she still was to him.

She wasn’t planning to ever hold a conversation with him but for the short while she’d see him, she’d make sure she was as cold as an ice.

She suddenly thought of Logan and thought that maybe he wasn’t that bad; if she really wanted to get over Aiden, maybe it was time she let someone heal her.

She wasn’t expecting loyalty or true love; she just wanted stability, and whenever he was tired of the relationship, he would let her know instead of cheating on her.

That would be a lot easier.

Going into a relationship by an agreement instead of fooling each other with love.

She knew Logan was a good guy, but so was Aiden.

She was never going to trust another man, period.

She would speak to Logan, she needed his help, and she just hoped the poor guy would understand and fall in love with her.

She needed to be one hundred percent prepared for anything that would happen, and that was why she was going to ask Logan to be her boyfriend and be a fake father of her child.

She wasn’t going to tell him the reason for it, but she would inform him that everything was fake.

If any other person should ask, he would go ahead and tell them that they were real and that Jace was his son.

If she told him the reason, some smarty pants would detect his dishonesty when he answered them, so it was best to just let him believe that it was part of the boyfriend’s plan.

She would find time and tell him before they left for the airport in the morning.

At the back of her mind, something was warning her against her plan, it told her that she might end up falling in love with Logan, just like she did with Aiden, after all, she was only but a human, a woman, and Logan wasn’t bad at all, if she was ever interested in a real relationship, she would have dated him, his personality was magnetic and his looks were to die for, his blonde hair was an additional bonus to enhance his handsome looks.

Ariel shook her head and sighed; what was wrong with her?

Maybe she’d gone too long without a man, that’s why she was fascinated by Logan.

She suddenly heard a knock on her door and looked up at it.

She smiled and went to open it, Jace always came to her room whenever he wanted him to hug her to sleep.

However, she opened the door to see a film with a grown adult man instead of a toddler.

“Ah, Logan,” She called in shock.

Logan’s hair was messy in a sexy manner, and his unbuttoned shirt added to his seductive look; he looked sleepy as he stared at Ariel.

Ariel felt her cheeks blushing, she looked away from him and cleared her throat.

“I’m sorry, did I wake you up?” He asked.

‘Damn it!’ Ariel mentally kicked her foot, why did she find her voice so damn sexy.

She must be ovulating, that must be the only reason for this madness.

She shook her head, “No, I just finished packing, come in,” She turned and walked back into the room.

Her lights were turned off before, but she turned them on as she wasn’t the only one in her room anymore.

Her heart skipped a beat when she heard Logan quietly shut the door behind her.

It wasn’t the first time she let him into his room, he’d even slept on the same bed with her, but that was before when she had strongly believed he was just a friend, not now.

Now, she saw him more than that; she didn’t know if his frequent gym visits were the cause of his wolf-cut hairstyle.

But she knew it was none of the above.

It was his gentle and playful personality; she had never, for one, detected any hostility in him, and the fact that he was the one who saved her that night made her feel more connected to him.

“I couldn’t sleep,” Logan said quietly as he lowered himself to Ariel’s bed, leaning against the headboard, taking a pillow, and placing it in his lap.

Ariel slowly turned from the wall to look at him.

She clenched her fist and took a deep breath, “Why couldn’t you sleep?” She slowly walked toward the bed and sat on the other side of it, mirroring his posture.

Logan turned his face sideways to look at her, “Because of you,” He replied.

Ariel squeezed the ears of the pillow on her lap, she scoffed and looked at him, “Me?

Don’t be ridiculous.” She chuckled.

Logan didn’t laugh or smile, he held her gaze intently, “I’m not being ridiculous, Ariel…you know it…you know how I feel about you.

I don’t think I can help it anymore, Ariel, it’s frustrating me,” He confessed honestly, letting her see the truth in his eyes.

Ariel blinked and removed her eyes from him.

“About that, I want to ask you for a favor since you’re going on a trip with me already,” She crossed her legs together and played with her fingers on top of the pillow.

Logan moved closer, “What do you want to ask, Ariel, I’d do it, no matter what it is,” He promised.

Ariel smiled, “You don’t even know Knkw what I want to ask of you yet, what I want you to kill someone,” She joked, narrowing her eyes at him.

“Done, name and address?” Logan played along.

Ariel chuckled, “Quit joking,” she flicked his forehead.

“Ouch,” Logan rubbed his forehead, pouting at Ariel.

“Fine, I’m listening; what do you want to say?” He asked.

Ariel sighed softly before she replied.

“Be my boyfriend-” “Yes!” Logan was beside her in a second, holding her hands in his and smiling happily.

Ariel felt sad and amused at the same time.

It amused her how he didn’t even let her finish her words, and it made her sad that she was about to make him sad, too.

“Woah, calm down, Logan, calm down, I’m not done,” She gently patted the back of his hand.

“Oh?” Logan blinked rapidly and cleared his throat, “I’m sorry, I guess I was a little too excited, hope I haven’t scared my girlfriend,” He winked at her.

Ariel smiled and shook her head, “Unbelievable,” She muttered.

“You better believe it, baby,” Logan leaned toward her and whispered in her ears, causing her to laugh.

“Stop, it’s ticklish,” She turned to push him away but froze when her hand entered his unbuttoned shirt and landed right on his firm chest.

They both went quiet as their eyes locked.

Ariel could feel his heartbeat getting faster and she knew what it meant.

He really felt strongly for her as he said.

His brown eyes locked on her green as he slowly placed his hand over hers in his chest.

“You feel it, Ariel?

The way my heart reacts to you, out of control…” He whispered and raised his other hand to her ear, caressing the shell.

Ariel didn’t move, she was still trying to figure out how her body was really reacting to this closeness.

She could still feel a little reluctance, in as much as she found him attractive, she realized she wasn’t in a rush to bed him.

However, it didn’t take away the blush that stained her face and the fact that she was still drawn to him.

She shivered as she felt his fingers on her ear, causing her to slightly move away from him.

“You’re really ticklish in the ear…” He moved his face closer to hers.

“How would you react If kissed it?” He asked, his voice turning deeper.

Ariel pushed against his chest but he caught her hand, bringing it down to her lap.

“Want to try that out?” He smirked.

Ariel was starting to feel a little nervous, but she maintained a straight face and replied, “In your dreams, Logan.” “Oh, you don’t know how many times I’ve dreamt about doing many things to you, Ariel; as a matter of fact, that’s why I’m awake.

I just dreamt of you; I want to know what I did to you in my dreams?” He asked seductively.

Ariel raised her brows and scoffed.

“No.

Let me go, Logan, I’m not done talking with you,” She frowned.

“Okay, baby, you escaped this time; I don’t know how long I’ll keep letting you escape, though,” He winked.

Ariel moved away from him and left the bed.

She lowered herself to the chair in front of her dressing table and cleared her throat.

She could feel Logan staring at her, but she was determined to tell him the plan she’d come up with, and she could only hope he would help her out.
