Logan Venture was severely lacking in his social life. In fact, he began to turn off his personal phone when he went home, to the ire of his girlfriends and old fraternity buddies. He hit his home-gym after work until he worked himself into exhaustion. He Shifted once a day, anything to completely drain his energy. It would be around midnight when he, soaked in sweat, finally collapsed on the cold tiles of his bathroom floor and slept like a corpse.

Wake up and then do it again.

Ginger refused to talk to him about the baby. His baby! Possibly. He dragged a hand over his face. He’d always been so careful with all of his girlfriends and hookups. But, Ginger … that night … well, it had been different, hadn’t it?

He threw himself on his bed, still wet from his shower. Jared had called him today, asking what was wrong, that he hadn’t seen his younger brother out in the paparazzi photos for a full week.

“Leave me alone,” Logan told him. He hung up and went home. His luxury car held little pleasure for him. It couldn’t seem to drive fast enough. His face was chiseled from ice in his own reflection. He groaned. And worse, he couldn’t seem to shake the haunting scent of Ginger’s perfume.

None of his brothers had children, yet. Perhaps Sylvan, the oldest, was closest. And Logan never imagined that he wanted them. He never thought that he wanted to hold a tiny product of himself. And yet, his nights were haunted with Ginger’s cold face and the sounds of a baby from somewhere in the distance.

He’d hired a detective. Just to find out some information. After all, it was his child, too. He got a picture of a beautiful baby girl back. Her name was Charlotte. Ginger’s parents took care of her while she was at work. Her health was good. Her eyes … like chocolate brown yet dotted with gold. She had Shifter blood in her. His own daughter.

The next Monday, he steeled himself for battle. He worked out all weekend and ate like the beast inside him. He walked in early to see Ginger at her desk. He locked his eyes with hers.

“Let’s talk in my office,” he told her. She glanced up at him, startled by his serious tone. She trailed after him, clutching her clipboard to her chest like a shield.

“Yes?” she asked as she sat down. He’d seen wild deer that were less skittish than her. He leaned on his hand and leveled his gaze towards her.

“I can’t stop thinking about you,” he told her. She dropped the clipboard, and it clattered to the ground. She stared with wide eyes.

“Excuse me?”

“Your perfume,” he said. “I smell it everywhere. I can’t go on my dates. I can’t get you out of my head. I can’t forget about our daughter. I’m haunted every single second of the day.” He’d told himself that he was going to be honest, for once in his life, with a woman that he cared about.
