Chapter 25: Logan is jealous and kisses Kylie again

Kylie’s POV.

The room was faintly illuminated, the soft glow of the bedside lamp casting a warm light over the bed. I lay there, my body aching from the torture I had endured, but Logan’s gentle touch brought me comfort. He carefully applied ointment to my wounds, his fingers moving with a tenderness that belied his fierce nature.

“How are you feeling?” Logan asked, his voice soft yet filled with concern.

“I’ve been better,” I replied, trying to muster a smile. “But knowing you’re here makes it easier.”

Logan’s eyes softened, and he leaned in closer. “The people of the Umbra Academy are under our control now. You don’t have to worry about them anymore.”

I let out a sigh of relief, though a part of me still felt uneasy. “They’re ruthless, Logan. They won’t stop until they get what they want.”

His grip on my hand tightened, his eyes filled with determination. “I won’t let them touch you again. I’ll always be here to protect you, Anne. You have nothing to fear.”
