There's a smut scene toward the end of this that was inspired by a sex scene that takes place between Charlize Theron and Johnny Depp from the movie "The Astronaut's Wife". That's all I'll say about that until the end...don't want to spoil too much!


A couple of hours after Hank and Scott had burst in the doors to "rescue" her, Logan sat up and looked around, "Aww fuck. Not again...this is gettin' fuckin' ridiculous."

Marie slowly stood up. When Logan saw her ripped shirt, his eyes widened and he began to tremble, "Oh my god...Marie...I hurt you!"

She quickly shook her head, "No...you didn't."

Yelling was heard outside of the door before it slid open. Scott charged in and lay a sucker punch to Logan's jaw, which did little more than jerk his head slightly. Hank, who had followed him in, yanked the ranting Scott by his bicep in an attempt to prevent further physical confrontation.

Logan raised a brow, "Tell me what's really on your mind, Scooter."

"You should be ashamed of yourself! Fucking animal...taking advantage of a young girl! You disgust me!" Scott spat angrily.

Marie shook her head and stepped forward, "It wasn't like that-"

"Don't defend him, Marie. He's nothing but an animal! You almost attacked Jean too!"

Marie suddenly yelled and pushed Scott in the chest, causing him to stumble back a little out of surprise, "He didn't take advantage of me! I consented!"

As all of the faces in the room fell into expressions of shock, Marie glanced back at Logan, who looked just as shocked as everyone else. He shook his head slowly and furrowed his eyebrows...it seems he was having as hard a time absorbing the information as everyone else.

Jean's voice suddenly entered the room, "And what about the first time? I saw you two in here together last week...was it consensual then too?"

Marie glared at Jean and spoke through clenched teeth, "Yes."

The professor, who was standing beside Jean, closed his eyes and shook his head in disappointment. When he reopened his eyes, he looked at Marie, "Once you've had the opportunity to get cleaned up, I'd like to see you in my office."

Hank pulled Scott and Jean out of the room, leaving a nervous looking Marie with Logan. She was more scared now than when he was feral.

"Logan-"

He quickly cut her off, "So you're scared of getting hurt by me...but you're ok with getting fucked sideways by a wild animal? Rich."

She called his name as he brushed past her, stomping all the way to the elevator. Marie thought about going after him, but ultimately thought better of it. He was pissed beyond words...at least for now.

When Marie finally moved to leave the room, she saw Jean standing in the hallway, pressing an ice pack to her temple.

Marie glared as she took a step forward, "Let's have it, Jean..."

Jean raised a brow and began walking away, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Marie rushed after her, "So you saw us that first time, huh? Why did you keep that to yourself? Why would you go into the cell?"

Scott rounded the corner, "Jean, you coming?"

The women glared at each other before Jean took Scott's hand and disappeared around the corner.


Marie sat in the professor's office an hour later, freshly showered and fully dressed.

After she explained the circumstances surrounding her new found ability to touch, he stared at his hands for what seemed to be an eternity before he spoke, "Marie...I'm confused as to how you were able to even enter that room without being subjected to some sort of physical arm. The untamed Wolverine does not recognize friend from foe. Everyone is considered to be a potential threat to him. You knew this...I told you this. What could have possibly possessed you to go into that cell?"

Marie pursed her lips together and looked down, "He's my friend...and I thought I could get through to him, so I went in. When he smelled me...he called me his mate and then-"

The professor's eyebrows raised in realization as he cut her off by raising up a hand. He didn't want to hear anymore. He nodded and sighed, "I see." There was another, tense moment of silence before he sat forward slightly and cleared his throat, "So knowing what he did to you-"

It was Marie's turn to interrupt, "He didn't really do anything to me that I didn't...consent to...even if I was reluctant at first."

"Right...well, regardless of reluctance or consent...if you knew what would happen if you went into the cell, why would you go in a second time?"

"Actually...I had no intention of going in a second time, but I at least wanted to keep an eye on him. So, when I got down to the security room, I looked at the monitor and saw Jean in there. He had his hand around her neck and it looked like she was in danger, so I went in to help...I knew my presence would calm him."

"What was Jean doing in the cell?" he asked no one in particular as he thoughtfully scratched his chin.


Logan avoided her like the plague for days. She felt awful and she knew he was unsure of how to act around her.

She finally cornered him in the rec room late one evening.

"Logan..."

He sighed, "Hi."

The coldness of his voice sent an arrow clean through her heart. That alone nearly made her break down and cry, "Can I talk to you? Please? You've been avoiding me."

"I'm here now...so talk."

She put her hands on her hips, "Why are you so angry with me?"

Logan stood, "I wasn't good enough for you, Marie. You were so afraid of me...Logan 'the womanizer'...but you let an animal fuck you three ways from Tuesday and I'm supposed to be ok with that? What's worst is that you did it TWICE! Once wasn't enough...you just had to go back to the Wolverine for more."

"Logan, please...it wasn't like that-"

He took a few menacing, quick steps toward her, effectively cutting her off as he glared down at her, "What am I? Too tame for you?" She shook her head then yelped as he suddenly pushed her up against the nearest wall, "You don't like the fact that I stop when you ask me to?" He yanked her shirt up and squeezed her breasts through her bra, "You want me to fuck you like an animal? Will that make you want me?"

"Logan, wait..."

He simply growled and pushed his hand beneath her skirt as she struggled against him, "This is what you want isn't it? The Wolverine? The animal?"

Marie sniffled as tears sprang from her eyes, "Logan...please. I'm sorry!"

He ripped the band of her panties and raised her leg around his waist as she pushed against his chest. As his lips connected to the soft flesh of her neck in feverish, angry kisses, her body almost gave in...but this was Logan...and this wasn't who he really was.

"Logan! Not like this...please! I do want you..."

He suddenly stopped and looked down into her wet eyes before snatching away from her to sit down and put his head in his hands, "I'm sorry...I'm sorry..."

Marie shuddered and closed her eyes as she pulled her shirt back down and readjusted her skirt, but she still felt exposed. She'd given into the Wolverine after she'd repeatedly refused to give into Logan...and she knew that hurt him. It was almost as if she'd cheated on him.

When he raised his head, his face was red, "I lost my memory, Marie. I don't who I am...I'm not sure of anything...but you...I was sure of. You have no idea how important that is to a man who doesn't have anything left, do you?"

Marie wiped at her face and slowly knelt down beside him as he looked into her eyes and smiled sadly. He gently ran a finger down her cheek, "I wanted you, kid...me...the real me...wanted you. Why wasn't that good enough?"

She pursed her lips and watched as he stood and walked out.

Marie sobbed softly as she watched him leave.

It was obvious she couldn't get through to him tonight, so she would save her pleading for another day...hopefully not too far away.


She laid in bed that night, just staring at the ceiling as she fiddled with his dog tags. She didn't know how many hours had passed by the time she heard her door open and close.

Marie turned over to see Logan standing there, staring at her.

They were both silent as he slowly undressed.

By the time she had the nerve to sit up, he was fully naked and walking toward her. He leaned over and gently pushed her back down onto the bed as he whispered, "You want the real Logan? You got 'em."

She gasped as he pushed his hips between her legs and began kissing her passionately. His lips soon moved from her mouth to her neck to suck and nip at the sensitive flesh there. He must've immediately realized how much she enjoyed that when he had her pinned up against the wall in the rec room several hours prior.

Marie moaned as he trailed kisses down her chest and took on of her nipples in his mouth, gently teasing it with his teeth.

After spending time providing delicious amounts of torture to her breasts, he kissed down her stomach, then hungrily buried his face between her legs. Marie arched her back and squeaked as she reached down and grabbed a hold of the back of his head.

"Oh! God!"

After a few moments of experiencing unparalleled oral pleasure, she began rolling her hips upwards in tune with his licks. He kissed his way back up to her neck before lining his cock up with her entrance and pushing himself inside.

As he settled into a steady rhythm, she started to wrap her arms around him, but he grabbed her wrists and pinned them to the bed.

She moaned breathlessly, "Logan..."

He just grunted in reply as he began fucking her harder.

Marie clenched her fists as she attempted to free her hands from his vice grip, but his strength easily won out, keeping her wrists pinned to the bed.

"Logan..." she murmured again, but again, he only grunted in response.

Her body suddenly clenched and shuddered as the sensations of a powerful orgasm overtook her senses. She loudly cried out his name one last time as she arched her back and pressed her hardened nipples against his chest, providing just enough sensation he needed to get pushed over the edge.

They laid there, panting in a mass of tangled limbs and sheets for several moments before he slowly pulled out of her and sat up. As she watched him redress, she realized that the fucking she just received was pay back for her betraying him with the Wolverine.

Logan needed to claim her...mark her the same way the Wolverine had...now that he'd done it...what now?

As he moved to stand up out of bed, she sat up and grabbed his forearm, "Don't...don't go..."

He looked into her eyes for the longest minute of her life before slowly laying back down and gathering her into his arms.

Marie breathed out and smiled as he kissed her ear and whispered, "You don't belong to the Wolverine...you belong to me."


When I was thinking of this chapter, I was wondering about how I could maintain the drama between Marie and Logan and it kind of clicked with making him kind of resent her for so easily giving "it" up to the Wolverine after he'd been working so hard to get her to return his affections. I know you've all seen all three X Men flicks, as well as "Origins". The resounding theme with Logan in regards to his feral mutation is the fact that he actually seems to loathe that part of himself. Remember in "Origins" when Kayla keeps telling him he's not an animal? I happen to think he hates the Wolverine (there's even reference to his disdain for his feral personality in the comic books). Now that he's lost his memory and he's having to learn to live with that side of his personality all over again, the hate is fresh...especially after what's gone down with Marie.

Oh, and about the love scene: I figured it was appropriate in showing Marie kind of realizing halfway through their encounter that his head is kinda not really in the right place. Yes, he cares for her and wants her, but that was almost like a revenge fuck.
