Chapter 87: Fighting Back

“Logan, when I told you there was something wrong with Holly’s bloodwork, you accused me of falsifying the reports, don’t you remember that?” she asked. “I was angry,” he said. “Kind of like you are now?” she asked. Logan scoffed and rolled his eyes. “You think I could believe that you’d accept what I said about the twins?” she asked. “You accused me of falsifying data and reports. You questioned my professionalism. It was a risk I wasn’t willing to take!” “I wouldn’t have disputed that…” Logan trailed. Serena shook her head. “You say that now,” she said. “But you don’t know…the timing was all wrong. You’d just found out Holly was pregnant. Don’t you think that it would have seemed more suspicious?” “No, not something like this,” he said. “Is that why you were so reluctant to believe me about Holly’s bloodwork?” she asked, raising an eyebrow. “You are so ready to believe anything that has to do with kids, your kids!”

“Maybe, I don’t know,” Logan said shaking his head. He sighed and crossed his arms Leaning back against the treehouse wall. Serena turned her back on him. He watched her. Being back in the treehouse, being so close to her, he could remember everything about that night. The way she tasted when he ran his tongue over her skin, how beautifully she had surrendered to him.

He’d woken up alone the next morning. It hadn’t surprised him at the time, and he had actually been grateful once he’d sobered up. Time went by, though, and he eventually started to wonder who that mysterious woman had been.

One night in a tree house, and it had been impactful. He remembered it being such a great night. Knowing that he had kids from that night… it didn’t make the memory any less sweet. Instead, it gave him a strange sense of fulfillment. For years he had felt like something was missing, like everything he had been working towards in his pack had been meaningless and directionless. Without a legacy, there was nothing to pass on. He had been his father’s legacy. Although he’d been a young Alpha, the idea of needing a successor and children had crossed his mind before. It had never seemed like the right time. That could have been because part of him knew there was another part of him out of there. It could have been another reason why he was so confused about Holly’s pregnancy. He’d felt a closeness to the kids from the moment he met them. Was that because he had known they were his on some level, or hoped they were his? “What are you thinking about?” Logan asked her, breaking the silence. Serena

I kept thinking of what would happen after, and that was what bothered me.” “What do you mean?” Logan asked. “I don’t think I ever thought of it in terms of lying to you,” she admitted. “I kept telling myself I was waiting for the right time, but with all the stuff happening in your life…it just made
