Hey Guys, here's another chapter in my story. I added a song, it's from
the Moulin Rouge soundtrack and it explains the title of the story. Anyway,
this is the longest chapter I've written so far, my muse was very active
today. I hope you like it because after all, it's for you. A shout out to
all my wonderful reviewers and M/L shippers. I heard some bad news on the
DA front but we will get it back, they can't do this to us. So I send all
my support to the DA cast and crew. Hope you like and review please, let me
know what you think.
When Max and Logan finally reached the hotel, they immediately rushed over to Cindy's room. Fortunately for them, both Cindy and the red head were fully clothed and sleeping, so Max carefully rolled the crib in to her room.
After taking a bath Max found Logan laying comfortably on the bed, she found it some what impossible to resist and joined him, cuddling closer to his warmth. He hugged her waist and kissed her forehead.
" So, what do you think?" He asked half asleep.
" About what?" He chuckled and she smiled as his chest rose with laughter.
" About today, silly." He rustled her hair and it was her turn to chuckle.
" It's been a really exhausting yet productive day. I was scared that she might be disgusted when she found out that I wasn't what she expected. And like always my screwed up genetics had to choose today to make itself noticed, it must've been really scary for her." She looked up at him and he kissed her forehead gently.
" She was pretty scared when you started to shake. I guess she didn't expect to see all that the first day." Max was deep in thought.
" She's really beautiful, isn't she?" She mentally went over every feature of her mother.
" Like mother, like daughter." He replied with a smile. She looked up to him and grinned, but then her face fell and she sighed.
" She's not really my mother, you know. There's not a single gene from her in my body; she was just an available womb to carry me." she whispered sadly, her fears getting the best of her.
Logan sat up and moved her so she would sit in between his legs, her back to his chest. " Max, a parent isn't just the one that creates you, a parent is the one that loves you and takes care of you. Think about all those adopted children, their own parents weren't capable of giving them what they needed, so they have others which didn't create them but do love them." Logan reasoned.
" She wasn't there." Her voice was barely a whisper but he could hear the pain in it.
" Not by choice, you know that. She loved you enough to try and get you out of there, don't you think she at least deserves to be called your mother." Max sighed heavily and turned to him.
" I want her with me Logan and I know that she has to stay, it's dangerous for her in Seattle and she'll probably won't want to come with us. I can't have her only to lose her again, it's not fair. Today when I had the seizure, she was there and I've never felt something like that, I mean, with you it's great because you know me and love me and I'm used to it. But with her, she was so caring, I could feel her hands on my hair and face, she also sang to me and it felt so good. I don't know Logan, maybe it was best if I didn't come, her life was simple again and I'll just screw it up like everything else." She got up and went to the balcony, the moonlight sketched her figure like an artist would.
" Baby, forget you fears, don't let them rule over you. You both deserve the second chance, so take it." He hugged her waist and they remained like that for a long time.
Logan tried to stay awake for her but at midnight he started to yawn, still he wouldn't leave her side. She knew he needed his rest but she allowed herself to be a little selfish for a while and enjoyed his soothing warmth around her. When guilt popped its ugly face in her conscience she finally gave in.
" Baby, you should go to sleep, you're tired and it's been a long day with the trip and all." She said detangling herself from him.
He just pulled her closer to him. " I want to stay with you." He whined softly. She chuckled at his childish reaction.
" Honey, you know that I'd love for you to stay but you're sleepy and you need your rest." He looked up to her and sighed.
" Come to bed with me." He invited her in his sexy voice.
" You know I'd love to but not tonight. I mean it Logan, you need to rest, I promise I'll come in a little while. It's been a weird day and I can't sleep, besides you're not a transgenic." She remarked with a frown.
" Thanks for reminding me." He said in a bitter tone, way too bitter for his own tatse but that was that.
Max was surprised to hear that, was Logan having issues about the transgenic stuff. He'd never said anything to her, she always assumed that he was ok with that side of her but apparently he was not so ok with it.
" I didn't mean it in any bad way, Logan, I just meant that I don't need sleep as much as you do. Are you mad at me?" At her question he softened his expression.
" Angry. The word is angry and no, I'm not angry at you. I'm sorry…I guess the tension of the trip is really getting me, I should probably go to bed now." He said in his cool demeanor, still she wasn't so sure that he was as calm as he sounded.
He saw her hesitant look and smiled, he opened his arms to her and she immediately walked in to them. He kissed her gently while rubbing her back.
" I'm sorry for snapping at you like that, I don't hate you for being a transgenic and I'm not mad at you. I love you very much, I can be a real jerk sometimes, will you forgive me?" He kissed her nose and she nodded.
" Of course I do. And the word is angry." She said in her old teasing fashion, Logan laughed.
" You're wonderful, you know that?" He kissed her again and again.
" So you keep saying." Was the smart ass remark, he tried to chuckle but it came out as a yawn. " Now go to sleep, please." She said patting his back.
" Yes ma'am. Goodnight precious, just don't got to bed too late, ok?" He kissed her again, he never got tired of it.
" Ok honey, goodnight." He went to bed and she watched him for a while before going back to the balcony.
After 10 minutes of doing some thinking she decided what she would do. She used her enhanced stealth to go back in to the room and change in to her catsuit, she always took it with her because you never knew when she would need it, besides she really loved how she looked in it and Logan had grown specially fond of it too.
After zipping up she gently kissed Logan and checked on her daughter before going back to the balcony, she didn't want Logan to kno what she was about to do so she chose the only way she would go unnotied, the way she loved: the cat burglar way.
She jumped from the balcony landing perfectly on the lawn and sneaked all the way to the Aztec. She put in in march and drove. At first she just cruised throught the city, checking everything out, she knew where she was headed and was only delaying it.
She made her way to the house and parked in front of it, she sat there for what seemed hours but turned out to be minutes. Finally gathering all her courage, she got out and went up to the porch, she picked the lock and slipped in as quietl as possible.
It was all dark and she could hear soft breathing and steps, it was odd that she might be awake at this hour but she wandered in anyway. She opened the door carefully and watched silently.
Her mother was standing in front of the window, she was clad in a gown and a robe, her hands rubbing her stomach, Max strained her hearing, she was talking to someone but she was alone.
" I'm so sorry Maxie, I swear I tried to get you out of that horrible place. I wasn't fast enough, it's my fault you had to suffer all that." Angela whispered in to the night.
To Max, she looked vulnerable and weak, it was something she couldn't help but think. But this was her mother and like Logan said, they deserved the second chance that life had given them. She walked towards her placed a hand on her shoulder, she jumped in surprise but remained silent.
" Hey." Max said, it sounded awkward in her ears.
" How did you get here? I didn't hear you knocking." Max blushed at this, her mother didn't know what kind of daughter she had.
" Um…used the only way I've known all my life, picking locks. It's also called breaking and entering, if you're that kind of people." She teased and Angela smiled.
" I'm glad you came, I wanted to ask you somethings. There's a lot I don't know about you and I'd like to know." She sat on her bed and motioned for Max to do the same.
She settled comfortably by her side and gulped nervously. " Ok, shoot." She said trying to gain composture.
" Ok. Um…would you like me to be your mother? Your real mother, I mean." Max was shocked, she had expected questions about her childhood at Manticore but not this.
" Of course, we have to seize the opportunity and it's not your fault at all." She said taking her mother's hand in hers and gently squeezing it.
And so they talked, all night as a matter of fact. Angela told her about her life while Max felt as comfortable as to tell her everything about Manticore and her life outside. When they finished talking, the sun was out.
Max got out of bed and stretched, reminding Angela of a very elegant cat, she felt horrible for everything her daughter had to go through but was very proud because she had endured.
" I gotta go before Logan gets up, and I gotta feed my baby. I had a great time…mom, I'll be back in the afternoon." Angela was surprised at Max;s choice of ords but smiled.
" Give Logan and Dylan a kiss for me, see you later sweetie." She gently kissed Max's cheek and smiled.
Max waved goodbye and made her way back to the hotel, she hadn't slep at all that night but felt all the pent up energy boiling inside. When she got to the room Logan was already awake. He was dressed, his wet hair being the only indication of his recent bath, he was lacing Dylan's sneakers when she walked in.
" Look what the cats broguht in." he said in a really good humor, he kissed her passioantely for a second.
" Good morning to you too." She said taking a big breath. " And how's my little girl doin'?" Dylan smiled from the bed and ran to her.
" Good mownin' mama." She said kissing Max's cheek.
" Good morning to you beautiful, what do you want for breakfast?" Logan smiled at the scene, he knew that Max had been out all night and he knew where she had been. It was ok because he knew that she needed that.
" Aus cream." The little voice answered after a while of pondering her choices.
" You mean ice cream baby girl." Logan corrected her gently.
Max placed Dylan on the floor and she went to watch cartoons, Max sighed and her stomach rumbled noisely. Both Logan and her laughed.
" Why don't you take a bath and we can go out and have breakfast, I'll go check if Cindy's awake." He suggested kissing her and disappearing.
She stripped and took a long warm bath, she loved the feeling of the warm water on her body, but she liked Logan's hands better, they knew where to touch her and when.
' Oh God, where did that come from?' She thought while she scrubbed her body with the soft sponge. She had to admit that Logan was hot, even more this morning when she saw him, those pants that hugged his ass and that shirt that did nothing to cover his well toned upper body. ' I could eat him all up.' She could feel her desire boiling inside her, on her belly and lower. Her small fingers did what they could to calm her but she kept imaging Logan's fingers and her hunger got worse. Then it dawned on her, ' holy crap I'm in heat!'
that why she was feeling so restless the past night, it wasn't only her mother's situation, it was the heatmaking itself noticed. ' Damn.' She thought, the last thing she needed at that moment was the heat what would her mtoher think if she found out?
' Who cares, all I want is Logan to throw me on to that bed and do things he's never imagined doing.' She shook her head and tried to think nice thoguths but unfotunately for her, all her thoughts were heading directly to the ' Max should rot in hell' part of her brain.
" How can I be thinking about sex when my little girl's just outside?" She questioned herself out loud.
She decided that the warm water wasn't going to help her in the least so she got out of the tub and got in to the shower. The cold liquid was a welcoming feeling for her overly heated body and she stayed a while longer inside.
Meanwhile, Logan knocked gently on the door to Cindy's room, they found her in a very cuddly position with the red head and he didn't want to walk in on something compromising. The woman opened the door and smiled brightly at him.
" Hey! May I help you with something?" She asked in a sugary sweet voice.
" Uh, hi I'm Logan Cale, friend of Cindy, is she awake yet?" The red head smiled even more at the mention of Cindy.
" Hi, I'm Lea, she's finished getting dressed. You can come in now, I was about to leave, tell her I'll be at the pool at noon." She winked at Logan and left.
He wandered in to the room calling out to her, she yelled from somewhere in the bedroom area. He found her in front of the mirror, putting the finishing touches to her hair.
" Hey Logan, what's up? My boo up yet?" She said cheerfully.
" Hi, she's taking a bath. I came to ask you if you wanted to come and have breakfast with us, I was planning on taking a cruise around the city and maybe do some shopping." Cindy's eyes sparkled at the mention of shopping.
" ' Course I'm comin' wit' you. Original Cindy ain't never sayin' no to that." Logan chuckled as they went back to their room.
When they came inside Dylan was still watching cartoons and Max was no where to be seen. Cindy approached Dylan and gave her a hug.
" Hey baby boo, where's yo' mommy?"
" Mama takin' a showa. She's feelin' hottie today." She said pointing to the bathroom door.
Logan frowned and spoke wih concern in his voice. " I'll go check on her." He knocked on the door but there was no answer.
He went in and closed the door behind him, the tub was empty but the shower was running, he could see Max's curvatious figure through the shower door. He couldn't help but bite his lip, he was addicted to Max and he knew it. She had joked about it saying that they were at it like rabbits but he couldn't contain himself, not with Max. and there was something about her since last night, he couldn't stop kissing her and he had an extremely sexy dream about her last night. He was attraced to her with such force that it was overwhelming, he tried to compose himself, Cindy and Dylan were just outside the door and they were hungry but Max naked under the shower was such an appetizing sight.
Suddenly the shower stopped and the door opened, revealing and extremely wet Max on the other side. She was dripping wet but it was the sexiest sight he'd ever layed eyes on, and there was something in her eyes, such want and lust that he thought that she was going to jump on him.
" Hey, I was starting to think that you'd ever come out of there." He said trying to break the silence. She grinned like a cat, a very hot cat and stepped out of the shower.
She had spent all that time under the freezing water just to stop the fire from consuming her but just at the very sight of Logan all her effort was shot to hell. He was so damn hot, so sexy and oh boy did she wanted to have him. He looked nervous but there was that sprkle of lust that always accompanied him whenever he looked at her and that was something she loved about him. The way that he seemed to worship her with his eyes, how they moved on her body, admiring it, loving it, wanting it, claiming it for himself.
The silence continued, both lost in each others eyes, trying to decide what to do with the unmistakable urge that roared inside them. Finally, when it was too much to take, both were drawn towards each other, kissing with hunger and want, rubbing, searching, lusting.
Max and Logan explored each other's mouths while their hands had life of their own. She pulled him closer to her, wanting to feel him inside, joined together by the blinding power of sex. He could feel her wetness, his dextrous fingers taking her higher and higher, when she couldn't hold it anymore, she kissed him hard to drown the suffocating cry of ecstasy coming from inside.
Logan wanted more, her soft moans were driving him crazy and he needed more, he wanted to take her completely, dive in to the sweet pool of pleasure that was sure to come. He had forgotten that they weren't alone and that on the other side of the unlocked door were his friend and daughter waiting to eat their breakfast.
Only did they fall from their cloud when they heard the knocking. " Hey, you betta not be goin' at it or else, Original Cindy and the lil' boo are dyin' of hunger." Cindy yelled from the other side.
Logan groaned and pulled back from Max, she was still wet and flushed, her eyes held the same lustful look from earlier. Then it dawned on him, why she was like that and why he couldn't seem to stop wanting and touching her.
" You're in heat." He whispered, it was more a statement than a question. He should've figured it out, it would usually take more work than that to make her reach her point.
" That time of the year again." She said with a sexy grin.
" Ok. What do you say we hold out this day and then we do something about it?" Max seemed dissapinted.
" Do we have to?" She purred rubbing herself to him.
" Baby, I'd love to take you but we promised we'd do this. Let's behave, just for today and I promise that tonight and tomorrow will be just for us." She grinned again.
" I'm liking the plan, now let's get outta here before Cindy busts us, that wat tonight will come sooner." She enveloped herself in a towel and went back in to the room.
" Finally boo, what'cha been up to in there?" Cindy asked raising her brow.
" Nothin'." Was Max's simple response.
It was noon and they were having lunch t a very cute restaurant, after they finally got out of the hotel they picked up Angela, who took them to the interesting places of the city and then shopping.
" So, how do you like the city so far?" Angela asked the silent group.
" It's cool." Cindy said.
" I think it's beautiful." Max added looking directly at Logan, who gulped.
" I like it nana." Dylan said in her whisper of a voice.
" Good baby." And they all smiled.
" Know of any good clubs around?" Cindy asked after eating.
" They're a couple of good ones, the best is one called Club Inferno." Angela said wiping Dylan's chin.
" Boo, tell Original Cindy that we hittin' that club tonight, please." Everybody turned to look at Max.
She didn't know what to say, she was holding on beacause of them 'cause all she wanted to do was have wild, steamy sex with Logan until they both couldn't take it. And by the secret, lustful glanced that he threw at her, he seemed to want the same. She looked at her friend and sighed. It was her first vacation outside of the country and she deserved to have a good time, she had stuck with her through all the bad times and it wouldn't be fair if she thought of herself at a time like this.
" Ok." She said meakly, drowning a glass of water and ordering another one immediately.
" Are you ok Max? you seemed flushed and you've beedn drinking a lot of water." Angela asked concerned. Max smiled to reassure her.
" I'm fine, just a little hot." She said looking at Logan again. She flet a hand make its way up her thighs and started rubbing softly.
She literally bit the tongue so she wouldn't scream, she placed her own hand up his thighs and started doing the same. Logan licked his lips and tried to hide his arousal. Fortunately everyone finished and he paid the bill and left.
" I can keep Dylan tonight if you want, it'll be easier for you to go out and not mind her. And I'd love to have her for the night." Angela suggested when they arrived at her place.
" That's a good idea, we'll pick her up in the morning. Thanks mom." Max said quickly.
" Yeah, thanks Angela. Be good honey, see you tomorrow." He waved at her.
" Bye mommy and daddy and auntie Cindy." She waved and they left.
When they reached the hotel Cindy immediately went off. " I'll be at the pool for a while and thenwe can go the the club." She said as she left.
Max and Logan almost ran to their room, by now the desire was so much that it was even hurting. They locked the door putting the 'do not disturb' sign outside.
Immediately Max jumped on him and kissed him feverishly, while he took them to the bed and unbottoned her shirt. He kissed a trail of hot kisses down her neck and collarbone, she moaned as her hands made their way to his pants and unzipped it. He graoned when he felt her hand run along his length, he claimed her motuh hungrily and finished undressing her, he undressed and lay nex to her.
He touched, caressed, licked, sucked and kissed every single part of her exquisite body, her moans driving him insane. Finally she flipped him over and dug him inside of her, they both sihed relief at the moment and she started rocking them to heaven. When the both reached their peaks she fell on top of him and rested.
" God Logan, you're a God in bed." She moaned to his chest.
" And you are my Goddess baby." He replied rubbing her back.
Soon the hunger was back and they were at it again and again, each time better than the last one, so insanely perfect and gloriously fulfilling. Max was in heat and so was Logan, it seemed that whenever she was around he was in heat, he wanted to satisfy her and when he was too tired he'd used his mouth and hands to do the job and it had the same wonderful result. She also worked magic with her creativity, it was better than anything they'd ever known.
At around eight o'clock Cindy called to say that she'd invited the red head to the club and thay they should get their lazy butts out of bed. They showered and got dressed, Logan in a pair bun hugging jeans and a btton down shirt, Max in her newly acquired red leather pants that were laced up in the sides and a black top that left little to the imagination, her hair long and flowing.
" Oh God!" Logan's jaw dropped when he saw her, she just grinned and approached him.
" Wanna take this to the bed sexy." She whispered.
" Later on baby." He whispered back. If it weren't for Cndy they would've undressed and hit the sack again.
Even Cindy whistled at Max when she saw her, she was one hot lady. " Damn boo, you sure look good tonight." She said with a smile.
" Thanks." She replied shyly.
" Good that you banged it befo' comin' too." She whispered to Max's ear so no one else heard it.
" How did you know?"
" You got that I-just-got-laid- look on yo' face boo." She replied.
The club was a club in all the extent of the word, beautifully decorated, gigantic dance floor and lots of seats. It wasn't at all like Crash, where you go to chill after work, this was a place of elegance.
Max's heat was in full blow at the moment and she wanted some action fast. Unfortunately Logan had found himself a friend and was chatting idly at the bar, an idea made way in to her brain and she grinned. She walked over to the DJ and a wink and a sexy tone later, the song she wanted came on. It was a reggae mix that suited the occasion perfectly.
All night long I'm horny, all night long I'm horny…
When Logan heard the musci he turned to her, she was smiling from the center of the dance floor. As the music started she started singing and dancing in an incredib;y sexy way.
You got me horny in the morning than you know
I tried to call you but I can't find your telephone
I sent a message through the internet but it rejected
I wrote a letter and I sent it through the post
Logan gulped as she danced, her black thong showing every time she turned.
The post will take too long
So I've got to sing a song
And let you know how I feel, what's the deal baby
And I can't wait for you and the things you make me do
My heart is ringing so I'm singing this song for you
I'm horny, horny, horny, horny
So horny, I'm horny, horny, horny
I'm horny, horny, horny, horny
So horny, I'm horny, horny, horny tonight
Max watched Logan intently, he was so incredibly sexy and hot. All she wanted to do at that very moment was take him and make him forget his own name, she was in a public place and she owed it to Cindy to stay put for a while longer, so she concentrated on teasing Logan with her sensual dancing.
I searched from town to town but I can't find my boo
I got so desperate that I sent a rocket to the moon
In New York city someone said they saw you singing the blues
But it was a man from nowhere land that looked like you
I will keep searching on
This feeling's much too strong
My heart is ringing so I'm singing this song for you
Max walked closer to Logan, her hips swaying in compase with the sexy music. Her skin was flushed and her eyes sparkled, her body clad in that clothes that were driving him and every other man in the joint crazy, she was a vision. His sensual vision.
I'm horny, horny, horny, horny
So horny, I'm horny, horny, horny
I'm horny, horny, horny
So horny, I'm horny, horny, horny
She was getting closer by the second, he could feel thewarmth from her skin, her eyes captured him in the most lustful look he'd ever seen. She nestled herself between his thighs, her hands traveling up and down them, she smelled of cherries and it was the most intoxicating scent in the world. She backed away and leaned on the bar.
" I'd like an Orgasm." She asked the bartender who nodded and made her the popular drink. Logan gulped when she took a sip from it, it was all so suggestive that he thought he'd die from desire. She went back to his thighs. " Logan, I want you now." She whispered to his ear, her words causing a delicious shiver run down his spine.
" Let's find the bathroom of this thing." He whispered back, his voice husky with desire.
He led her through the crowd, hands binded together as if life depended on it. Finally they reached their destination, a gigantic bathroom equally elegant as the club, he had barely locked the door when Max assaulted him with hungry lips. He kissed her back pouring all his passion to the kiss, fumbling with her skin-tight pants.
She helped him and soon they were both half naked, Logan extracted the condom from his wallet, after living with Max he learned to keep at least two condoms in his wallet. Since they seemed addicted to each other and didn't know when the urge would strike. Her legs wrapped around his waist as he dove in to her, for a glorious moment moans of pure ecstasy were heard in the lonely bathroom, soon both came with a cry in unison.
" Logan…!"
" Max…!"
She unwrapped herself from him, her legs felt like jelly and if Logan didn't hold her she would've fallen to the ground. They hugged for a while longer, she clung to him as he caressed her hair.
" I love you baby." She breathed.
" I love you too honey." It was their own special code, he knew that after heat she would feel like a whore, so he would tell her that he loved her and she replied, that way she knew that it was love and not some random sex.
After their desire was quenched for a while at least, they got dressed and went back to the club. Cindy and the red head were witing for them at the bar.
" Where the hell you been?" She asked with a death glare.
" Uh…we…I…dancin'." Max replied nervously. She didn't want the red head to know about her little problem.
" You weren't dancin' 'cause Original Cindy was dancin' with red head here all da time and you weren't there." She said with one hand on her hips.
" We were outside, admiring the beauty of the night here." Logan came to the rescue like always. " And we were dancing under the moonlight." Max looked at him with pride written in her eyes.
Cindy didn't seem to buy it but her friend smiled brightly. " Ohh, that's so sweet, you guys make a cute couple." She said, Cindy smiled.
" Ok, now let's get to that dance floor and start getting' jiggy wit' it." She said as the music started.
The red head followed Cindy while Max and Logan took their space, they started dancing but Max's desire was boiling inside her. She started moving sexily against him arousing him, he grabbed her waist and started grinding with her. He twirled her around and she bent down while shaking her ass, giving him a pretty good view of her thong, he pulled her back to him.
" Just wait till we get home." He breathed down her neck.
" Can't wait." She grinned at him.
After a while longer Max had made quite notorious the fact that she couldn't hold on any longer, he told Cindy about Max's delicate situation and grinned when he said they had to leave.
" You go on Logan, scratch my boo's itch. Original Cindy and sister girl will find their way back to the hotel." She said patting his back.
" Are you sure?" He didn't like the idea of leaving Cindy alone, she was a good friend that he'd grown to love.
" Sure, don't worry. Original Cindy's havin' herself the best time of her life." She said waving at him and going back to the dance floor.
He grabbed Max and left the club in a hurry. The ride back to the hotel was dangerous and incredibly long, with Max straddling his lap and miving her hips against his painful hardness, she kissed and nipped at his neck while he tried to concentrate on the road. Finally they reached the hotel and he got out with Max still on his lap.
" Maxie baby, you think you cou;d handle walking up to the room, we don''t wanna give this people a show." He pleaded.
She just grinned and walked past him. " Meet you there." She said suggestively.
When he reached the room it was silent, everything was dark except for the lamp next to the bed. Max was laying naked on the bed, her body flushed and calling out to him.
For the rest of the night Logan quenched Max's desire in every way he could think of, sometimes she scremed so hard that he thought that every guest in the hotel had heard, but it didn't matter, all that mattered was the way she turned him on with only a look of her eyes, how her moans took him over the edge.
Max on her side was satiated in every way, Logan was the only man that knew exactly where to touch her to make her scream and what to do, he was the best lover she'd ever had. It helped a great deal the fact that this was the man she loved because afterwards she didn't feel like a whore. She used to hate her heat periods but Logan changed that, he gave her much more than she wanted and it drew her over the edge.
The morning surprised Logan, he hadn't slept more than a couple of hours in the night. He remembered everything and grew hard again, it was unbelievable how the mere thought of her aroused him. He looked down at the beauty laying on top of him, her eyes were shut and a she wore a smile on her lips. She stirred and moved a little, her smile broke in to a sexy grin.
" All that for me?" She asked in a sugary coated tone, she had noticed his arousal and was already wanting some action. The worst part of her heat had passed but she was still in heat.
" And more." He replied kissing her passionately, there was no morning breath because they hadn't slept enough to let it form.
This time they made love slowly, rediscovering their bodies, taking their time arouse each other and feel each caress with intensity. The only thing Max hated about her heat was how quick it ended, normally she would make her orgasm last longer, just to feel him inside her more but when she was in heat, she was always ready, that meant that any little touch could easily send her overboard. But Logan knew that and he always made sure that she enjoyed each touch before she came.
That was another reason why she loved him, he got her better than anyone else did and she felt safe and cherished.
When they were finally resting Logan rubbed his back and she started to feel guilty, she knew that Logan's back was still a sore spot and she always took advantage of him when in heat.
" Did I hurt you?" She asked softly.
" No baby, I'm tired but fine." He responded with a smile, she was still reluctant.
" Are you sure? Don't hide things from me just because you love me. If you're hurt tell me, you tend to hide things just for your ego's sake." She frowned to make him know that she was serious.
He grabbed her face and stared directly to her eyes. " Max, I'm fine. I promise sweetie." She let herself to smile back.
" Ok, now let's get out of bed and see my baby." She reluctantly let go of him and headed to the bathroom.
Letting go of him was the last thing she wanted to do but she had to let him rest, even if he promised that he was ok, she still worried for his back. She took a cold shower and let him bath.
When he came out she was clad in jeans and a short top, he dressed in khakis and a shirt. They were about to leave when his cell phone rang.
" Yeah." He answered. " Hi Matt, how's it going?" Max noticed how his face grew serios immediately and stood by his side. " When did this happen?…How?…I'm so sorry Matt, I'll be there soon. I promise I'll tell him and he'll make whoever's responsible pay. Again I'm sorry Matt, I know that you're in a great deal of pain but please hang in there. Bye and take care, I'll see you as soon as I can." He hung up.
There was a small tear rolling down his cheek and she wiped it, something had to be very wrong to make him cry. " What happened?" She asked softly, even with her enhanced hearing she couldn't tell what was Matt saying.
" Yesterday someone broke in to Matt Sung's house and killed his family." Max's eyes widened, she never imagined it would be this terrible. " His wife and little boy. He was only seven." He said breaking the silence.
" I'm so sorry Logan, I know he's your friend and he helped me so many times." She said hugging him, he let her warmth envelop him.
" I have to go. Eyes Only has to find this don of a bitch and make him pay for what he did." He said going business like, Max knew that mode, it was Eyes Only talking.
" I'll pack and tell Cindy, we can pick Dylan on our way." She said reaching for the suitcases but Logan stopped her.
" No." She looked at him. " I'll go alone, you came here to be with you mother and it's not fair that you have to leave now." Max's eyes widened at his suggestion.
" You wanna go without me?" She asked not really believing it.
" I have to. You need more time with your mothe and I'm not taking it from you, besides Cindy deserves her vacation. And I don't want to take Dylan back so soon, she deserves to be in a beautiful place for a change." He got his suitcase and started packing.
" But you can't go alone, Eyes Only needs the help of his partner in crime, Dylan and Cindy couls stay with Angela." She said trying to change his mind.
" Max, I'd preffer if you'd stay here, it'll be better for me if I know that you're spending more time with your mother." He retaliated.
" But Logan…" She pouted but his expression was serious.
" There are no buts, you're stayng and that's final." He said getting anoyed. Normally Max would argue her way in to his reason but now he was in apin, he had a mission and being a soldier she knew what that was like and she respected it.
" Ok." She said sadly, sitting on the other side of the bed. " I'll help you pack." She offered putting more clothes on the suitcase.
Logan's expression softened at Max's acceptance, he was surprised that she hadn't argue any more. She would ususally do it until he got tired and let her have her way but now she seemed to understand. He sat next to her and hugged her.
" Honey, I'd love to have you with me but I don't want you to go through this. It's your time and I want you to make the best of it. The hotel's paid so you can stay until you want, you just spend time with your mom, your daughter and your best friend, do some shopping, sightseeing. When the case is cracked I'll buy you tickets and you can come home, I'll talk to Normal when I get back."
She sighed and hugged him tighter. " These vacations won't be the same without you." She said softly.
" You'll still have your mom and you daughter and Cindy, and I'll call everyday, ok?" He kissed her and she nodded.
He finished packing and made some calls, Max sat on the bed trying to hold back the tears thatwere threatening to fall. Logan noticed this and hugged her.
" I love you baby, more than life. We'll be together soon enough, you'll see. Promise me that you're going to have a good time." She smiled reassuringly.
" Only if you promise me that you won't hesitate to calll if you need me, at any time." She held his face in her hands and gazed at his blue eyes.
" I promise." He said.
" Then I promise too." And they kissed. A kiss full of love and tenderness but passionate like all their kisses were.
She accompanied him to the car and kissed him passionately again. When they came up for air, they smiled at each other.
" Give Dyl a kiss for me and tell Angela that it's been a honor meeting her." He held her against him for the last time.
" You take care of yourself and remember that I've got your back." He smiled and kissed her again.
" And I've got yours." One final kiss and he was out of there.
So that day Max spent it with Angela, Dylan and Cindy. She explained what had happened to them, she also called Alec and asked him to help Logan with whatever he needed and to take care of him.
They went shopping, sightseeing and ate a lovely restaurant. Meanwhile Logan drove as fast as he could to get to Seattle.
That night Max lay on the bed, it seemed even bigger now that she was alone. The baby was sleeping in her crib and Cindy had gone out with the red head. She lay there thinking about Logan and praying for his safety.
" Hey, big guy if you're really up there. Please take care of Logan for me, I need him alive, we need him alive." She prayed out loud.
She thought about how much her love for Logan had grown in the past days, it grew bigger and stronger each day, amazing her even more. She felt a melody in her brain, one that she knew Logan could also feel.
Logan thought about Max while he drove through the dark streets, he felt a melody playing in his heart and he knew that she could feel it. It was almost like they were communicating with their minds and hearts even thoigh they were apart.
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Everyday I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change
Winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time
Logan wasn't surprised to be singing, Max made him feel like that all the time and he loved it. It was a tribute for her and even though she wasn't there, he knew she could hear it.
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
The wind carried his voice all the way back to Max, the feeling was so strong that she swore she could see him singing it. She knew that she had to make him hear her and started singing too.
Suddenly the world is such a perfect palce
Suddenly it moves with such a pefect grace
Suddenly my lie doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
Logan and Max sang their song in unison, making sure the other felt the same way.
And there's no mountain to high
No river to wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
Stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Their love seemed to grow stronger in that moment, and somehow they both knew that no matter what came their way, they'd still be together.
Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Max felt her tears rolling down her cheeks, she was so emotional and Logan wasn't there. She still didn't know how much time she'd be able to spend without him, she closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep.
Meanwhile Logan continued driving, it was a long trip and he was tired but he wanted to make good time. He wanted to be with the friend that had helped him a million times, he needed him and he'd be damned if he wasn't going to be there for him. It hurt like it had happened to him. He had a family now and he didn't know what he'd do if something happened to Max or Dylan, besides he had known them for a long time, since the little boy was born he had been like an uncle and it hurt to know that such an innocent life had to pay for something he wasn't aware of yet.
He was going to strip all Seattle if it was necessary but he was going to find that son of a bitch and make sure that he never lay a finger on another person again, even if he had to rip all his fingers one by one himself. He grabbed his cell phone and dialed Alec's number, he was going to need his help with this.
" Alec's Pleasure Dome, King Alec speakin'." Logan groaned.
" For God's sake can't you answer the phone like a normal person?" He said, he could almost hear Alec grinning.
" Hey Logan, what's up?" Damn, he thought it was a lady friend.
" I need your help on something, I'm on my way back to Seattle and…" Alec interrupted him.
" Yeah, yeah, I know. Max filled me in, I'll swing by your place tomorrow so we can nail the bastard. And don't worry, I've got your back." Logan was surprised to hear the friendly tone in Alec.
" Gee, thanks. I'll call you when I arrive, good night." He hung up. The X5 kids were always surprising him.
He smiled though, leave it to Max to plan everything even if she wasn't going to be there. She was so sweet, worrying about him, she actually called her brother to put him under his disposition. She deserved a surprise, he just had to think about what to get her.
He grabbed the phone again and dialed the hotel number, he couldn't go another minute without talking to her.
" Yes, room 2025 please, thanks." He waited and then he heard her beautiful voice.
" For the last time, I ain't watchin' you and your girl throwin' step so leave me alone." She said in a annoyed voice. He chuckled surprising her.
" Hey baby, thought it was Cindy?" She smiled glad and sat up.
" Hey, yeah she's been calling for hours. Where are you? I miss you." She said in a soft voice.
" I miss you too baby, I'm still a few hours away from the border. How's Dylan?" Max glanced at the crib.
" Sleeping like a baby. She missed you a lot today, spent all day talking about her daddy." Logan smiled .
" My baby, how was your day?"
" Fine. I talked a lot with Angela, I like her even more." She smiled when she remembered her mom.
" That's wonderful hon, thanks for calling Alec by the way. I gotta go no but I'll call you tomorrow, be good and remember that I love you very much." She sighed.
" I love you too baby, take care please and remember your promise. Bye." They hung up and sighed.
Max was less worried and went back to sleep while Logan reached a motel. He wanted to continue but he was tired and needed sleep, he parked and grabbed his bag. He checked in and after a quick shower went to bed and fell asleep almost immediately.
Tomorrow would be a new day filled with surprises and new worries, he just hoped that his family would be fine for the time being.
Like it? Or just plainly love it? Keep reviewing me, you're doing me a world of good. Hope I didn't defraud my reviewers, love ya lots. I'll write the next one soon and please gimme a break with the smut thing, I've never written about it, though I want to. Send me some pointers please, I don't want it to be too smutty like NC-17, just R. I'll write soon, see ya for now.
When Max and Logan finally reached the hotel, they immediately rushed over to Cindy's room. Fortunately for them, both Cindy and the red head were fully clothed and sleeping, so Max carefully rolled the crib in to her room.
After taking a bath Max found Logan laying comfortably on the bed, she found it some what impossible to resist and joined him, cuddling closer to his warmth. He hugged her waist and kissed her forehead.
" So, what do you think?" He asked half asleep.
" About what?" He chuckled and she smiled as his chest rose with laughter.
" About today, silly." He rustled her hair and it was her turn to chuckle.
" It's been a really exhausting yet productive day. I was scared that she might be disgusted when she found out that I wasn't what she expected. And like always my screwed up genetics had to choose today to make itself noticed, it must've been really scary for her." She looked up at him and he kissed her forehead gently.
" She was pretty scared when you started to shake. I guess she didn't expect to see all that the first day." Max was deep in thought.
" She's really beautiful, isn't she?" She mentally went over every feature of her mother.
" Like mother, like daughter." He replied with a smile. She looked up to him and grinned, but then her face fell and she sighed.
" She's not really my mother, you know. There's not a single gene from her in my body; she was just an available womb to carry me." she whispered sadly, her fears getting the best of her.
Logan sat up and moved her so she would sit in between his legs, her back to his chest. " Max, a parent isn't just the one that creates you, a parent is the one that loves you and takes care of you. Think about all those adopted children, their own parents weren't capable of giving them what they needed, so they have others which didn't create them but do love them." Logan reasoned.
" She wasn't there." Her voice was barely a whisper but he could hear the pain in it.
" Not by choice, you know that. She loved you enough to try and get you out of there, don't you think she at least deserves to be called your mother." Max sighed heavily and turned to him.
" I want her with me Logan and I know that she has to stay, it's dangerous for her in Seattle and she'll probably won't want to come with us. I can't have her only to lose her again, it's not fair. Today when I had the seizure, she was there and I've never felt something like that, I mean, with you it's great because you know me and love me and I'm used to it. But with her, she was so caring, I could feel her hands on my hair and face, she also sang to me and it felt so good. I don't know Logan, maybe it was best if I didn't come, her life was simple again and I'll just screw it up like everything else." She got up and went to the balcony, the moonlight sketched her figure like an artist would.
" Baby, forget you fears, don't let them rule over you. You both deserve the second chance, so take it." He hugged her waist and they remained like that for a long time.
Logan tried to stay awake for her but at midnight he started to yawn, still he wouldn't leave her side. She knew he needed his rest but she allowed herself to be a little selfish for a while and enjoyed his soothing warmth around her. When guilt popped its ugly face in her conscience she finally gave in.
" Baby, you should go to sleep, you're tired and it's been a long day with the trip and all." She said detangling herself from him.
He just pulled her closer to him. " I want to stay with you." He whined softly. She chuckled at his childish reaction.
" Honey, you know that I'd love for you to stay but you're sleepy and you need your rest." He looked up to her and sighed.
" Come to bed with me." He invited her in his sexy voice.
" You know I'd love to but not tonight. I mean it Logan, you need to rest, I promise I'll come in a little while. It's been a weird day and I can't sleep, besides you're not a transgenic." She remarked with a frown.
" Thanks for reminding me." He said in a bitter tone, way too bitter for his own tatse but that was that.
Max was surprised to hear that, was Logan having issues about the transgenic stuff. He'd never said anything to her, she always assumed that he was ok with that side of her but apparently he was not so ok with it.
" I didn't mean it in any bad way, Logan, I just meant that I don't need sleep as much as you do. Are you mad at me?" At her question he softened his expression.
" Angry. The word is angry and no, I'm not angry at you. I'm sorry…I guess the tension of the trip is really getting me, I should probably go to bed now." He said in his cool demeanor, still she wasn't so sure that he was as calm as he sounded.
He saw her hesitant look and smiled, he opened his arms to her and she immediately walked in to them. He kissed her gently while rubbing her back.
" I'm sorry for snapping at you like that, I don't hate you for being a transgenic and I'm not mad at you. I love you very much, I can be a real jerk sometimes, will you forgive me?" He kissed her nose and she nodded.
" Of course I do. And the word is angry." She said in her old teasing fashion, Logan laughed.
" You're wonderful, you know that?" He kissed her again and again.
" So you keep saying." Was the smart ass remark, he tried to chuckle but it came out as a yawn. " Now go to sleep, please." She said patting his back.
" Yes ma'am. Goodnight precious, just don't got to bed too late, ok?" He kissed her again, he never got tired of it.
" Ok honey, goodnight." He went to bed and she watched him for a while before going back to the balcony.
After 10 minutes of doing some thinking she decided what she would do. She used her enhanced stealth to go back in to the room and change in to her catsuit, she always took it with her because you never knew when she would need it, besides she really loved how she looked in it and Logan had grown specially fond of it too.
After zipping up she gently kissed Logan and checked on her daughter before going back to the balcony, she didn't want Logan to kno what she was about to do so she chose the only way she would go unnotied, the way she loved: the cat burglar way.
She jumped from the balcony landing perfectly on the lawn and sneaked all the way to the Aztec. She put in in march and drove. At first she just cruised throught the city, checking everything out, she knew where she was headed and was only delaying it.
She made her way to the house and parked in front of it, she sat there for what seemed hours but turned out to be minutes. Finally gathering all her courage, she got out and went up to the porch, she picked the lock and slipped in as quietl as possible.
It was all dark and she could hear soft breathing and steps, it was odd that she might be awake at this hour but she wandered in anyway. She opened the door carefully and watched silently.
Her mother was standing in front of the window, she was clad in a gown and a robe, her hands rubbing her stomach, Max strained her hearing, she was talking to someone but she was alone.
" I'm so sorry Maxie, I swear I tried to get you out of that horrible place. I wasn't fast enough, it's my fault you had to suffer all that." Angela whispered in to the night.
To Max, she looked vulnerable and weak, it was something she couldn't help but think. But this was her mother and like Logan said, they deserved the second chance that life had given them. She walked towards her placed a hand on her shoulder, she jumped in surprise but remained silent.
" Hey." Max said, it sounded awkward in her ears.
" How did you get here? I didn't hear you knocking." Max blushed at this, her mother didn't know what kind of daughter she had.
" Um…used the only way I've known all my life, picking locks. It's also called breaking and entering, if you're that kind of people." She teased and Angela smiled.
" I'm glad you came, I wanted to ask you somethings. There's a lot I don't know about you and I'd like to know." She sat on her bed and motioned for Max to do the same.
She settled comfortably by her side and gulped nervously. " Ok, shoot." She said trying to gain composture.
" Ok. Um…would you like me to be your mother? Your real mother, I mean." Max was shocked, she had expected questions about her childhood at Manticore but not this.
" Of course, we have to seize the opportunity and it's not your fault at all." She said taking her mother's hand in hers and gently squeezing it.
And so they talked, all night as a matter of fact. Angela told her about her life while Max felt as comfortable as to tell her everything about Manticore and her life outside. When they finished talking, the sun was out.
Max got out of bed and stretched, reminding Angela of a very elegant cat, she felt horrible for everything her daughter had to go through but was very proud because she had endured.
" I gotta go before Logan gets up, and I gotta feed my baby. I had a great time…mom, I'll be back in the afternoon." Angela was surprised at Max;s choice of ords but smiled.
" Give Logan and Dylan a kiss for me, see you later sweetie." She gently kissed Max's cheek and smiled.
Max waved goodbye and made her way back to the hotel, she hadn't slep at all that night but felt all the pent up energy boiling inside. When she got to the room Logan was already awake. He was dressed, his wet hair being the only indication of his recent bath, he was lacing Dylan's sneakers when she walked in.
" Look what the cats broguht in." he said in a really good humor, he kissed her passioantely for a second.
" Good morning to you too." She said taking a big breath. " And how's my little girl doin'?" Dylan smiled from the bed and ran to her.
" Good mownin' mama." She said kissing Max's cheek.
" Good morning to you beautiful, what do you want for breakfast?" Logan smiled at the scene, he knew that Max had been out all night and he knew where she had been. It was ok because he knew that she needed that.
" Aus cream." The little voice answered after a while of pondering her choices.
" You mean ice cream baby girl." Logan corrected her gently.
Max placed Dylan on the floor and she went to watch cartoons, Max sighed and her stomach rumbled noisely. Both Logan and her laughed.
" Why don't you take a bath and we can go out and have breakfast, I'll go check if Cindy's awake." He suggested kissing her and disappearing.
She stripped and took a long warm bath, she loved the feeling of the warm water on her body, but she liked Logan's hands better, they knew where to touch her and when.
' Oh God, where did that come from?' She thought while she scrubbed her body with the soft sponge. She had to admit that Logan was hot, even more this morning when she saw him, those pants that hugged his ass and that shirt that did nothing to cover his well toned upper body. ' I could eat him all up.' She could feel her desire boiling inside her, on her belly and lower. Her small fingers did what they could to calm her but she kept imaging Logan's fingers and her hunger got worse. Then it dawned on her, ' holy crap I'm in heat!'
that why she was feeling so restless the past night, it wasn't only her mother's situation, it was the heatmaking itself noticed. ' Damn.' She thought, the last thing she needed at that moment was the heat what would her mtoher think if she found out?
' Who cares, all I want is Logan to throw me on to that bed and do things he's never imagined doing.' She shook her head and tried to think nice thoguths but unfotunately for her, all her thoughts were heading directly to the ' Max should rot in hell' part of her brain.
" How can I be thinking about sex when my little girl's just outside?" She questioned herself out loud.
She decided that the warm water wasn't going to help her in the least so she got out of the tub and got in to the shower. The cold liquid was a welcoming feeling for her overly heated body and she stayed a while longer inside.
Meanwhile, Logan knocked gently on the door to Cindy's room, they found her in a very cuddly position with the red head and he didn't want to walk in on something compromising. The woman opened the door and smiled brightly at him.
" Hey! May I help you with something?" She asked in a sugary sweet voice.
" Uh, hi I'm Logan Cale, friend of Cindy, is she awake yet?" The red head smiled even more at the mention of Cindy.
" Hi, I'm Lea, she's finished getting dressed. You can come in now, I was about to leave, tell her I'll be at the pool at noon." She winked at Logan and left.
He wandered in to the room calling out to her, she yelled from somewhere in the bedroom area. He found her in front of the mirror, putting the finishing touches to her hair.
" Hey Logan, what's up? My boo up yet?" She said cheerfully.
" Hi, she's taking a bath. I came to ask you if you wanted to come and have breakfast with us, I was planning on taking a cruise around the city and maybe do some shopping." Cindy's eyes sparkled at the mention of shopping.
" ' Course I'm comin' wit' you. Original Cindy ain't never sayin' no to that." Logan chuckled as they went back to their room.
When they came inside Dylan was still watching cartoons and Max was no where to be seen. Cindy approached Dylan and gave her a hug.
" Hey baby boo, where's yo' mommy?"
" Mama takin' a showa. She's feelin' hottie today." She said pointing to the bathroom door.
Logan frowned and spoke wih concern in his voice. " I'll go check on her." He knocked on the door but there was no answer.
He went in and closed the door behind him, the tub was empty but the shower was running, he could see Max's curvatious figure through the shower door. He couldn't help but bite his lip, he was addicted to Max and he knew it. She had joked about it saying that they were at it like rabbits but he couldn't contain himself, not with Max. and there was something about her since last night, he couldn't stop kissing her and he had an extremely sexy dream about her last night. He was attraced to her with such force that it was overwhelming, he tried to compose himself, Cindy and Dylan were just outside the door and they were hungry but Max naked under the shower was such an appetizing sight.
Suddenly the shower stopped and the door opened, revealing and extremely wet Max on the other side. She was dripping wet but it was the sexiest sight he'd ever layed eyes on, and there was something in her eyes, such want and lust that he thought that she was going to jump on him.
" Hey, I was starting to think that you'd ever come out of there." He said trying to break the silence. She grinned like a cat, a very hot cat and stepped out of the shower.
She had spent all that time under the freezing water just to stop the fire from consuming her but just at the very sight of Logan all her effort was shot to hell. He was so damn hot, so sexy and oh boy did she wanted to have him. He looked nervous but there was that sprkle of lust that always accompanied him whenever he looked at her and that was something she loved about him. The way that he seemed to worship her with his eyes, how they moved on her body, admiring it, loving it, wanting it, claiming it for himself.
The silence continued, both lost in each others eyes, trying to decide what to do with the unmistakable urge that roared inside them. Finally, when it was too much to take, both were drawn towards each other, kissing with hunger and want, rubbing, searching, lusting.
Max and Logan explored each other's mouths while their hands had life of their own. She pulled him closer to her, wanting to feel him inside, joined together by the blinding power of sex. He could feel her wetness, his dextrous fingers taking her higher and higher, when she couldn't hold it anymore, she kissed him hard to drown the suffocating cry of ecstasy coming from inside.
Logan wanted more, her soft moans were driving him crazy and he needed more, he wanted to take her completely, dive in to the sweet pool of pleasure that was sure to come. He had forgotten that they weren't alone and that on the other side of the unlocked door were his friend and daughter waiting to eat their breakfast.
Only did they fall from their cloud when they heard the knocking. " Hey, you betta not be goin' at it or else, Original Cindy and the lil' boo are dyin' of hunger." Cindy yelled from the other side.
Logan groaned and pulled back from Max, she was still wet and flushed, her eyes held the same lustful look from earlier. Then it dawned on him, why she was like that and why he couldn't seem to stop wanting and touching her.
" You're in heat." He whispered, it was more a statement than a question. He should've figured it out, it would usually take more work than that to make her reach her point.
" That time of the year again." She said with a sexy grin.
" Ok. What do you say we hold out this day and then we do something about it?" Max seemed dissapinted.
" Do we have to?" She purred rubbing herself to him.
" Baby, I'd love to take you but we promised we'd do this. Let's behave, just for today and I promise that tonight and tomorrow will be just for us." She grinned again.
" I'm liking the plan, now let's get outta here before Cindy busts us, that wat tonight will come sooner." She enveloped herself in a towel and went back in to the room.
" Finally boo, what'cha been up to in there?" Cindy asked raising her brow.
" Nothin'." Was Max's simple response.
It was noon and they were having lunch t a very cute restaurant, after they finally got out of the hotel they picked up Angela, who took them to the interesting places of the city and then shopping.
" So, how do you like the city so far?" Angela asked the silent group.
" It's cool." Cindy said.
" I think it's beautiful." Max added looking directly at Logan, who gulped.
" I like it nana." Dylan said in her whisper of a voice.
" Good baby." And they all smiled.
" Know of any good clubs around?" Cindy asked after eating.
" They're a couple of good ones, the best is one called Club Inferno." Angela said wiping Dylan's chin.
" Boo, tell Original Cindy that we hittin' that club tonight, please." Everybody turned to look at Max.
She didn't know what to say, she was holding on beacause of them 'cause all she wanted to do was have wild, steamy sex with Logan until they both couldn't take it. And by the secret, lustful glanced that he threw at her, he seemed to want the same. She looked at her friend and sighed. It was her first vacation outside of the country and she deserved to have a good time, she had stuck with her through all the bad times and it wouldn't be fair if she thought of herself at a time like this.
" Ok." She said meakly, drowning a glass of water and ordering another one immediately.
" Are you ok Max? you seemed flushed and you've beedn drinking a lot of water." Angela asked concerned. Max smiled to reassure her.
" I'm fine, just a little hot." She said looking at Logan again. She flet a hand make its way up her thighs and started rubbing softly.
She literally bit the tongue so she wouldn't scream, she placed her own hand up his thighs and started doing the same. Logan licked his lips and tried to hide his arousal. Fortunately everyone finished and he paid the bill and left.
" I can keep Dylan tonight if you want, it'll be easier for you to go out and not mind her. And I'd love to have her for the night." Angela suggested when they arrived at her place.
" That's a good idea, we'll pick her up in the morning. Thanks mom." Max said quickly.
" Yeah, thanks Angela. Be good honey, see you tomorrow." He waved at her.
" Bye mommy and daddy and auntie Cindy." She waved and they left.
When they reached the hotel Cindy immediately went off. " I'll be at the pool for a while and thenwe can go the the club." She said as she left.
Max and Logan almost ran to their room, by now the desire was so much that it was even hurting. They locked the door putting the 'do not disturb' sign outside.
Immediately Max jumped on him and kissed him feverishly, while he took them to the bed and unbottoned her shirt. He kissed a trail of hot kisses down her neck and collarbone, she moaned as her hands made their way to his pants and unzipped it. He graoned when he felt her hand run along his length, he claimed her motuh hungrily and finished undressing her, he undressed and lay nex to her.
He touched, caressed, licked, sucked and kissed every single part of her exquisite body, her moans driving him insane. Finally she flipped him over and dug him inside of her, they both sihed relief at the moment and she started rocking them to heaven. When the both reached their peaks she fell on top of him and rested.
" God Logan, you're a God in bed." She moaned to his chest.
" And you are my Goddess baby." He replied rubbing her back.
Soon the hunger was back and they were at it again and again, each time better than the last one, so insanely perfect and gloriously fulfilling. Max was in heat and so was Logan, it seemed that whenever she was around he was in heat, he wanted to satisfy her and when he was too tired he'd used his mouth and hands to do the job and it had the same wonderful result. She also worked magic with her creativity, it was better than anything they'd ever known.
At around eight o'clock Cindy called to say that she'd invited the red head to the club and thay they should get their lazy butts out of bed. They showered and got dressed, Logan in a pair bun hugging jeans and a btton down shirt, Max in her newly acquired red leather pants that were laced up in the sides and a black top that left little to the imagination, her hair long and flowing.
" Oh God!" Logan's jaw dropped when he saw her, she just grinned and approached him.
" Wanna take this to the bed sexy." She whispered.
" Later on baby." He whispered back. If it weren't for Cndy they would've undressed and hit the sack again.
Even Cindy whistled at Max when she saw her, she was one hot lady. " Damn boo, you sure look good tonight." She said with a smile.
" Thanks." She replied shyly.
" Good that you banged it befo' comin' too." She whispered to Max's ear so no one else heard it.
" How did you know?"
" You got that I-just-got-laid- look on yo' face boo." She replied.
The club was a club in all the extent of the word, beautifully decorated, gigantic dance floor and lots of seats. It wasn't at all like Crash, where you go to chill after work, this was a place of elegance.
Max's heat was in full blow at the moment and she wanted some action fast. Unfortunately Logan had found himself a friend and was chatting idly at the bar, an idea made way in to her brain and she grinned. She walked over to the DJ and a wink and a sexy tone later, the song she wanted came on. It was a reggae mix that suited the occasion perfectly.
All night long I'm horny, all night long I'm horny…
When Logan heard the musci he turned to her, she was smiling from the center of the dance floor. As the music started she started singing and dancing in an incredib;y sexy way.
You got me horny in the morning than you know
I tried to call you but I can't find your telephone
I sent a message through the internet but it rejected
I wrote a letter and I sent it through the post
Logan gulped as she danced, her black thong showing every time she turned.
The post will take too long
So I've got to sing a song
And let you know how I feel, what's the deal baby
And I can't wait for you and the things you make me do
My heart is ringing so I'm singing this song for you
I'm horny, horny, horny, horny
So horny, I'm horny, horny, horny
I'm horny, horny, horny, horny
So horny, I'm horny, horny, horny tonight
Max watched Logan intently, he was so incredibly sexy and hot. All she wanted to do at that very moment was take him and make him forget his own name, she was in a public place and she owed it to Cindy to stay put for a while longer, so she concentrated on teasing Logan with her sensual dancing.
I searched from town to town but I can't find my boo
I got so desperate that I sent a rocket to the moon
In New York city someone said they saw you singing the blues
But it was a man from nowhere land that looked like you
I will keep searching on
This feeling's much too strong
My heart is ringing so I'm singing this song for you
Max walked closer to Logan, her hips swaying in compase with the sexy music. Her skin was flushed and her eyes sparkled, her body clad in that clothes that were driving him and every other man in the joint crazy, she was a vision. His sensual vision.
I'm horny, horny, horny, horny
So horny, I'm horny, horny, horny
I'm horny, horny, horny
So horny, I'm horny, horny, horny
She was getting closer by the second, he could feel thewarmth from her skin, her eyes captured him in the most lustful look he'd ever seen. She nestled herself between his thighs, her hands traveling up and down them, she smelled of cherries and it was the most intoxicating scent in the world. She backed away and leaned on the bar.
" I'd like an Orgasm." She asked the bartender who nodded and made her the popular drink. Logan gulped when she took a sip from it, it was all so suggestive that he thought he'd die from desire. She went back to his thighs. " Logan, I want you now." She whispered to his ear, her words causing a delicious shiver run down his spine.
" Let's find the bathroom of this thing." He whispered back, his voice husky with desire.
He led her through the crowd, hands binded together as if life depended on it. Finally they reached their destination, a gigantic bathroom equally elegant as the club, he had barely locked the door when Max assaulted him with hungry lips. He kissed her back pouring all his passion to the kiss, fumbling with her skin-tight pants.
She helped him and soon they were both half naked, Logan extracted the condom from his wallet, after living with Max he learned to keep at least two condoms in his wallet. Since they seemed addicted to each other and didn't know when the urge would strike. Her legs wrapped around his waist as he dove in to her, for a glorious moment moans of pure ecstasy were heard in the lonely bathroom, soon both came with a cry in unison.
" Logan…!"
" Max…!"
She unwrapped herself from him, her legs felt like jelly and if Logan didn't hold her she would've fallen to the ground. They hugged for a while longer, she clung to him as he caressed her hair.
" I love you baby." She breathed.
" I love you too honey." It was their own special code, he knew that after heat she would feel like a whore, so he would tell her that he loved her and she replied, that way she knew that it was love and not some random sex.
After their desire was quenched for a while at least, they got dressed and went back to the club. Cindy and the red head were witing for them at the bar.
" Where the hell you been?" She asked with a death glare.
" Uh…we…I…dancin'." Max replied nervously. She didn't want the red head to know about her little problem.
" You weren't dancin' 'cause Original Cindy was dancin' with red head here all da time and you weren't there." She said with one hand on her hips.
" We were outside, admiring the beauty of the night here." Logan came to the rescue like always. " And we were dancing under the moonlight." Max looked at him with pride written in her eyes.
Cindy didn't seem to buy it but her friend smiled brightly. " Ohh, that's so sweet, you guys make a cute couple." She said, Cindy smiled.
" Ok, now let's get to that dance floor and start getting' jiggy wit' it." She said as the music started.
The red head followed Cindy while Max and Logan took their space, they started dancing but Max's desire was boiling inside her. She started moving sexily against him arousing him, he grabbed her waist and started grinding with her. He twirled her around and she bent down while shaking her ass, giving him a pretty good view of her thong, he pulled her back to him.
" Just wait till we get home." He breathed down her neck.
" Can't wait." She grinned at him.
After a while longer Max had made quite notorious the fact that she couldn't hold on any longer, he told Cindy about Max's delicate situation and grinned when he said they had to leave.
" You go on Logan, scratch my boo's itch. Original Cindy and sister girl will find their way back to the hotel." She said patting his back.
" Are you sure?" He didn't like the idea of leaving Cindy alone, she was a good friend that he'd grown to love.
" Sure, don't worry. Original Cindy's havin' herself the best time of her life." She said waving at him and going back to the dance floor.
He grabbed Max and left the club in a hurry. The ride back to the hotel was dangerous and incredibly long, with Max straddling his lap and miving her hips against his painful hardness, she kissed and nipped at his neck while he tried to concentrate on the road. Finally they reached the hotel and he got out with Max still on his lap.
" Maxie baby, you think you cou;d handle walking up to the room, we don''t wanna give this people a show." He pleaded.
She just grinned and walked past him. " Meet you there." She said suggestively.
When he reached the room it was silent, everything was dark except for the lamp next to the bed. Max was laying naked on the bed, her body flushed and calling out to him.
For the rest of the night Logan quenched Max's desire in every way he could think of, sometimes she scremed so hard that he thought that every guest in the hotel had heard, but it didn't matter, all that mattered was the way she turned him on with only a look of her eyes, how her moans took him over the edge.
Max on her side was satiated in every way, Logan was the only man that knew exactly where to touch her to make her scream and what to do, he was the best lover she'd ever had. It helped a great deal the fact that this was the man she loved because afterwards she didn't feel like a whore. She used to hate her heat periods but Logan changed that, he gave her much more than she wanted and it drew her over the edge.
The morning surprised Logan, he hadn't slept more than a couple of hours in the night. He remembered everything and grew hard again, it was unbelievable how the mere thought of her aroused him. He looked down at the beauty laying on top of him, her eyes were shut and a she wore a smile on her lips. She stirred and moved a little, her smile broke in to a sexy grin.
" All that for me?" She asked in a sugary coated tone, she had noticed his arousal and was already wanting some action. The worst part of her heat had passed but she was still in heat.
" And more." He replied kissing her passionately, there was no morning breath because they hadn't slept enough to let it form.
This time they made love slowly, rediscovering their bodies, taking their time arouse each other and feel each caress with intensity. The only thing Max hated about her heat was how quick it ended, normally she would make her orgasm last longer, just to feel him inside her more but when she was in heat, she was always ready, that meant that any little touch could easily send her overboard. But Logan knew that and he always made sure that she enjoyed each touch before she came.
That was another reason why she loved him, he got her better than anyone else did and she felt safe and cherished.
When they were finally resting Logan rubbed his back and she started to feel guilty, she knew that Logan's back was still a sore spot and she always took advantage of him when in heat.
" Did I hurt you?" She asked softly.
" No baby, I'm tired but fine." He responded with a smile, she was still reluctant.
" Are you sure? Don't hide things from me just because you love me. If you're hurt tell me, you tend to hide things just for your ego's sake." She frowned to make him know that she was serious.
He grabbed her face and stared directly to her eyes. " Max, I'm fine. I promise sweetie." She let herself to smile back.
" Ok, now let's get out of bed and see my baby." She reluctantly let go of him and headed to the bathroom.
Letting go of him was the last thing she wanted to do but she had to let him rest, even if he promised that he was ok, she still worried for his back. She took a cold shower and let him bath.
When he came out she was clad in jeans and a short top, he dressed in khakis and a shirt. They were about to leave when his cell phone rang.
" Yeah." He answered. " Hi Matt, how's it going?" Max noticed how his face grew serios immediately and stood by his side. " When did this happen?…How?…I'm so sorry Matt, I'll be there soon. I promise I'll tell him and he'll make whoever's responsible pay. Again I'm sorry Matt, I know that you're in a great deal of pain but please hang in there. Bye and take care, I'll see you as soon as I can." He hung up.
There was a small tear rolling down his cheek and she wiped it, something had to be very wrong to make him cry. " What happened?" She asked softly, even with her enhanced hearing she couldn't tell what was Matt saying.
" Yesterday someone broke in to Matt Sung's house and killed his family." Max's eyes widened, she never imagined it would be this terrible. " His wife and little boy. He was only seven." He said breaking the silence.
" I'm so sorry Logan, I know he's your friend and he helped me so many times." She said hugging him, he let her warmth envelop him.
" I have to go. Eyes Only has to find this don of a bitch and make him pay for what he did." He said going business like, Max knew that mode, it was Eyes Only talking.
" I'll pack and tell Cindy, we can pick Dylan on our way." She said reaching for the suitcases but Logan stopped her.
" No." She looked at him. " I'll go alone, you came here to be with you mother and it's not fair that you have to leave now." Max's eyes widened at his suggestion.
" You wanna go without me?" She asked not really believing it.
" I have to. You need more time with your mothe and I'm not taking it from you, besides Cindy deserves her vacation. And I don't want to take Dylan back so soon, she deserves to be in a beautiful place for a change." He got his suitcase and started packing.
" But you can't go alone, Eyes Only needs the help of his partner in crime, Dylan and Cindy couls stay with Angela." She said trying to change his mind.
" Max, I'd preffer if you'd stay here, it'll be better for me if I know that you're spending more time with your mother." He retaliated.
" But Logan…" She pouted but his expression was serious.
" There are no buts, you're stayng and that's final." He said getting anoyed. Normally Max would argue her way in to his reason but now he was in apin, he had a mission and being a soldier she knew what that was like and she respected it.
" Ok." She said sadly, sitting on the other side of the bed. " I'll help you pack." She offered putting more clothes on the suitcase.
Logan's expression softened at Max's acceptance, he was surprised that she hadn't argue any more. She would ususally do it until he got tired and let her have her way but now she seemed to understand. He sat next to her and hugged her.
" Honey, I'd love to have you with me but I don't want you to go through this. It's your time and I want you to make the best of it. The hotel's paid so you can stay until you want, you just spend time with your mom, your daughter and your best friend, do some shopping, sightseeing. When the case is cracked I'll buy you tickets and you can come home, I'll talk to Normal when I get back."
She sighed and hugged him tighter. " These vacations won't be the same without you." She said softly.
" You'll still have your mom and you daughter and Cindy, and I'll call everyday, ok?" He kissed her and she nodded.
He finished packing and made some calls, Max sat on the bed trying to hold back the tears thatwere threatening to fall. Logan noticed this and hugged her.
" I love you baby, more than life. We'll be together soon enough, you'll see. Promise me that you're going to have a good time." She smiled reassuringly.
" Only if you promise me that you won't hesitate to calll if you need me, at any time." She held his face in her hands and gazed at his blue eyes.
" I promise." He said.
" Then I promise too." And they kissed. A kiss full of love and tenderness but passionate like all their kisses were.
She accompanied him to the car and kissed him passionately again. When they came up for air, they smiled at each other.
" Give Dyl a kiss for me and tell Angela that it's been a honor meeting her." He held her against him for the last time.
" You take care of yourself and remember that I've got your back." He smiled and kissed her again.
" And I've got yours." One final kiss and he was out of there.
So that day Max spent it with Angela, Dylan and Cindy. She explained what had happened to them, she also called Alec and asked him to help Logan with whatever he needed and to take care of him.
They went shopping, sightseeing and ate a lovely restaurant. Meanwhile Logan drove as fast as he could to get to Seattle.
That night Max lay on the bed, it seemed even bigger now that she was alone. The baby was sleeping in her crib and Cindy had gone out with the red head. She lay there thinking about Logan and praying for his safety.
" Hey, big guy if you're really up there. Please take care of Logan for me, I need him alive, we need him alive." She prayed out loud.
She thought about how much her love for Logan had grown in the past days, it grew bigger and stronger each day, amazing her even more. She felt a melody in her brain, one that she knew Logan could also feel.
Logan thought about Max while he drove through the dark streets, he felt a melody playing in his heart and he knew that she could feel it. It was almost like they were communicating with their minds and hearts even thoigh they were apart.
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Everyday I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change
Winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time
Logan wasn't surprised to be singing, Max made him feel like that all the time and he loved it. It was a tribute for her and even though she wasn't there, he knew she could hear it.
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
The wind carried his voice all the way back to Max, the feeling was so strong that she swore she could see him singing it. She knew that she had to make him hear her and started singing too.
Suddenly the world is such a perfect palce
Suddenly it moves with such a pefect grace
Suddenly my lie doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
Logan and Max sang their song in unison, making sure the other felt the same way.
And there's no mountain to high
No river to wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
Stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Their love seemed to grow stronger in that moment, and somehow they both knew that no matter what came their way, they'd still be together.
Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Max felt her tears rolling down her cheeks, she was so emotional and Logan wasn't there. She still didn't know how much time she'd be able to spend without him, she closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep.
Meanwhile Logan continued driving, it was a long trip and he was tired but he wanted to make good time. He wanted to be with the friend that had helped him a million times, he needed him and he'd be damned if he wasn't going to be there for him. It hurt like it had happened to him. He had a family now and he didn't know what he'd do if something happened to Max or Dylan, besides he had known them for a long time, since the little boy was born he had been like an uncle and it hurt to know that such an innocent life had to pay for something he wasn't aware of yet.
He was going to strip all Seattle if it was necessary but he was going to find that son of a bitch and make sure that he never lay a finger on another person again, even if he had to rip all his fingers one by one himself. He grabbed his cell phone and dialed Alec's number, he was going to need his help with this.
" Alec's Pleasure Dome, King Alec speakin'." Logan groaned.
" For God's sake can't you answer the phone like a normal person?" He said, he could almost hear Alec grinning.
" Hey Logan, what's up?" Damn, he thought it was a lady friend.
" I need your help on something, I'm on my way back to Seattle and…" Alec interrupted him.
" Yeah, yeah, I know. Max filled me in, I'll swing by your place tomorrow so we can nail the bastard. And don't worry, I've got your back." Logan was surprised to hear the friendly tone in Alec.
" Gee, thanks. I'll call you when I arrive, good night." He hung up. The X5 kids were always surprising him.
He smiled though, leave it to Max to plan everything even if she wasn't going to be there. She was so sweet, worrying about him, she actually called her brother to put him under his disposition. She deserved a surprise, he just had to think about what to get her.
He grabbed the phone again and dialed the hotel number, he couldn't go another minute without talking to her.
" Yes, room 2025 please, thanks." He waited and then he heard her beautiful voice.
" For the last time, I ain't watchin' you and your girl throwin' step so leave me alone." She said in a annoyed voice. He chuckled surprising her.
" Hey baby, thought it was Cindy?" She smiled glad and sat up.
" Hey, yeah she's been calling for hours. Where are you? I miss you." She said in a soft voice.
" I miss you too baby, I'm still a few hours away from the border. How's Dylan?" Max glanced at the crib.
" Sleeping like a baby. She missed you a lot today, spent all day talking about her daddy." Logan smiled .
" My baby, how was your day?"
" Fine. I talked a lot with Angela, I like her even more." She smiled when she remembered her mom.
" That's wonderful hon, thanks for calling Alec by the way. I gotta go no but I'll call you tomorrow, be good and remember that I love you very much." She sighed.
" I love you too baby, take care please and remember your promise. Bye." They hung up and sighed.
Max was less worried and went back to sleep while Logan reached a motel. He wanted to continue but he was tired and needed sleep, he parked and grabbed his bag. He checked in and after a quick shower went to bed and fell asleep almost immediately.
Tomorrow would be a new day filled with surprises and new worries, he just hoped that his family would be fine for the time being.
