“I was wondering if you knew he fucked her in the ass?”
Logan stared at his friend, and it was like he was seeing him for the first time. There were only two people who would know what Grant had done. One of them was Grant, and he wasn’t there yet. Logan didn’t want Ava to have to confront her past just yet. That would all come soon enough. Grant had told him what he’d done. It hadn’t been caught on tape. He’d gone to her house and things had gotten out of control.
The only other person was Ava herself, and seeing as the two hadn’t had contact in twelve years before yesterday, Logan knew for a fact Luke had visited her.
“Why do you care?”
“I knew how much you wanted to be her first. You couldn’t have her pussy. I bet she hadn’t been a virgin for a long time, but her ass, that could have been your little cherry.”
“Get out,” Logan said.
“Have I hit a nerve?”
“I said get out,” Logan said.
Luke held his hands up. “It’s just a little fun between friends, right? I’ll go. No need to shoot the messenger.”
Logan waited for Luke to go before heading toward the security room.
Hunter was there, drinking a coffee.
“How long have you been here?” he asked.
“Ten minutes. I figured I’d come and check on a few things. None of the men had reported anything.”
Logan didn’t see a reason to have a man on the cameras twenty-four seven. He’d installed the security out of curiosity and a precaution.
He didn’t have them in any room.
There was some privacy. The corridors, main hallway, dining room, and his study each had a camera. He’d also installed a few into the library.
Finding the screen with Ava’s door, he rewound the footage.
He stopped as he watched Luke coming out of her room, smiling as he did. Checking the time, he rewound the tape showing his friend had been in the room for ten minutes.
“Why is Luke sneaking around your house to go and see Ava?” Hunter asked.
“I want you to bring the sheriff to me. Make sure Luke, Riley, and Marvin are gone by the time I return. I need to clarify a few things.”
Getting to his feet, he walked out of the room.
He couldn’t go throwing accusations at Luke, not when he didn’t know the full reasons for it. Luke had never turned his back on him, and he wasn’t about to accuse him of shit he didn’t know.
Heading to Ava’s room, he unlocked the door, and she stood in the bathroom doorway, staring at him.
She was pale.
“We’re going out. Come on.”
“Can I leave?” she asked.
“We’re about to leave.”
“What do I have to do to earn my freedom from you? To stop you from sending out the tapes of my parents and myself?”
He stopped and stared at her. “Do you really want to know?”
“Yes.”
He stared at her. She was shaking, but he wouldn’t allow himself to care.
She was a first-class bitch, and he had to stop seeing the girl from his past and realize this woman tried to ruin his life.
“You’ll know all in good time.” He grabbed her arm and pulled her from the room.
“Logan, you’re hurting me.” He got to the end of the stairwell. Shoving her up against the wall, he wrapped his fingers around her throat. He didn’t like being lied to, and he certainly didn’t like to have liars near him.
“This is not a vacation for you. You don’t get to scream and beg, or make demands. You’re here for me. For what I require of you. If that means prancing around naked, you’ll do it. If it means getting on your knees and sucking my dick, you’ll do it. No matter what I demand, you will give it to me, am I understood?”
“And if I don’t?” she asked.
He smiled. “Ava, you seem to think I’m the guy you knew from high school, the one who didn’t really hurt you. Pushed you around a little bit but helped you when you fell. Gave you your first kiss. You seem to think that’s me. It’s not. It’s not me. It will never be me. You destroyed any chance you had of ever seeing that guy again. You want to push this, then you will get to see the real monster you created, and once he’s out, you better fucking run.”
He grabbed her arm again and dragged her downstairs. His men moved out of the way as he hauled her out of the house and toward his car. No one made a move to stop him. He could start hitting her, beating the shit out of her, and no one would move a muscle. They were his men, and he’d told them not to intervene. This was between him and Ava, and now he had a feeling the sheriff had some explaining to do.
