CHAPTER 16

LOGAN

The phone ringing woke me out of a dead sleep.

I reached over, ready to silence it, when I saw it said Mother. Fuck. I did not need her shit this morning.

I’d spent a beautiful night with my Hana. I’d made love to her body until I had coated her insides with my cum. As much as I wished my seed would take root on the first try, the reality is that it would probably take many more lovemaking sessions like last night.

I knew I should feel bad for what I’d done to her, but I couldn’t find a sliver of remorse. She was mine. She did not belong to my brother. I just needed her to get with the program, and everything would go smoothly.

“Hey Ma,” I answered.

“Took you long enough to answer your phone, Logan. Here I am, the woman who was in labor with you and your brother over 18 hours, and you can’t even pick up your phone in a timely fashion. You were going to let it go to voicemail, weren’t you? Ingrate!”

I’d known this wasn’t going to be a pleasant conversation, but she started it off with a bang.

“Why do you have to come at me so early in the morning, Ma?” I snapped. I was tired of dealing with her shit. Plus, I’d had a late night.

“Do you hear how you talk to me? I raised you, clothed you, put food in your stomach for eighteen years and this is how you speak to me? I bet if I died today, you wouldn’t even shed a tear.”

I could hear my father in the background grumbling as my mom’s voice got shriller. I couldn’t even cut in. She kept the blows coming.

“Still in bed? I’d wager your brother has acquired a new contract while you’ve been sleeping. Why don’t you want more for yourself, Logan?”

“Ma, I love working for the company. It’s a steady job with steady pay. Why can’t you be happy for me? I’m sick of you comparing me to Luke all the time.”

“Oh, that’s because Luke has a good head on his shoulders. Your father is retired, but he worked his ass off to provide for our family. I swear, I don’t know where you get this laziness from. I just don’t understand why you can’t want more from life like—”

“Like fucking Luke, right?” I damn near roared into the receiver. It was the same shit, different day.

“Don’t you dare take that tone with me, Logan Cartwright. I can still whoop your ass, three years old or twenty-something. I’m your Mama. You know better to disrespect me like this. What has gotten into you?”

My dad said something in the background, probably taking her side, as always. Happy wife and all that bullshit. I was seething.

“Nothing, Ma. I’m just tired.”

“From what?” she snapped. “It’s not like working on cars in this small town is that time-consuming. You barely show up at the company. You don’t have a steady woman in your life. You could go back to school, Logan.
