Chapter 269: Future (3)
"Don’t look at me like that. I came to check on you and bring you some news. You can go back to being with Annalise after you take care of important matters," Logan said, stepping back to put some space between him and Rafael as a precaution if Rafael wanted to hit him. "Guards stopped by again. Asking questions because Lady Everett says we put Siena in danger."
Rafael closed his bedroom door after he stepped out in case Annalise happened to step out of the bathroom. Logan was the last person Rafael wanted to see Annalise as she was now.
"I remember your parents crossing paths with that woman in the past, but it seems like she is close to your uncle. Siena is staying with her and from what we gathered so far, her mansion is where his men gather. She is close to Siena’s father. An old friend," said Logan.
Rafael buttoned his shirt as he walked down the corridor. "She isn’t exactly a family friend. Just someone my mother saw from time to time when we visit because of Wendy. I wouldn’t expect much from her since she isn’t loyal to us. Don’t worry about looking into her connection to Travis and Siena’s father. That doesn’t matter at the moment."
Rafael would deal with Lady Everett in the future when they returned to this town. At the moment, she was not a big threat. Just a woman who had no idea what kind of game she was getting herself into.
"I’m going to make the assumption that she is an old lover of his. What else would make a woman go to such lengths unless he is paying her a large amount of money? She sent the guards to speak with us about the dangers Siena got into and asked for Siena’s guard to be released," Logan revealed.
"Is that so? Send a message to the guards not to release him until someone from our side has questioned him. Anything else?" Rafael asked, failing to see why his time with Annalise was disturbed. It was common sense to not let her guard be released yet. "Did you try to destroy my door for only this?"
"Hey! I thought it was important the guards came to us. There is more I need to tell you about the men we are questioning, but honestly, when I heard your mother say we are not allowed on this floor, I knew you have to be enjoying yourself with a certain maid so I had to stop that shit. If I am not with a woman, why should- Fuck!" Logan cursed, touching his arm. "I’ll tell your mother you hit me again."
"I also came because I was worried about you after hearing you got stabbed. Don’t you think you should show your face to the knights who weren’t here? They’re worried since it has been a while since you got hurt. The last time you were wounded, we thought your time as commander would come to an end. Just show your face and get back to your lady," Logan said.
