Chapter 53: The End

The drive back was filled with celebration and overexcitement over what Gwen had accomplished. Everyone had erupted in praise, congratulating her on her win but none of that mattered. What mattered was if Logan was proud of her.

They shared a smile as Logan drove them back to the Victorian mansion. The moment he parked, they got out and headed inside. Logan placed a hand on the small of her back, ushering her towards their bathroom to clean up.

Gwen sighed as he shut their bedroom door and strutted towards her with a determined expression. He cradled her face and looked her over, taking in the burgundy stains on her angelic skin. His gaze locked on where Elijah had torn through her shoulder.

“It’s alright,” Gwen sighed, and he shook his head.

“It’s never alright,” Logan’s voice croaked in a low rumble.
