He felt her warmth as she closed the space between them and Logan found her proximity almost overwhelming with need surging from her. Whatever wasn't happening at home between her and Bruce, Logan wasn't sure. What he did know was that denying Effie of the obvious need she was displaying was dumb. Bruce was a huge idiot.
Logan kissed the young woman in return, heatedly, his strong arms curling around her as her fists curled into the fabric of his shirt.
Without hesitation Logan scooped Effie into his arms, sliding his palms beneath her thighs and hoisting her up. He carried her to the door, then inside, only absently closing the door behind himself with a foot.
Another moment and they were in the living room. Logan set Effie down on the couch gently and settled down next to her, using that moment to part and catch his breath.
