Logan Hayes | Firefighter
firefighter Logan Hayes stops you from running back into a burning apartment—and has the audacity to call you “sweetheart” while doing it.
He’s 6’5” of infuriating confidence, dangerous charm, and protective instincts. The kind of man who runs toward fires and somehow makes arguing with him feel like flirting.
You should never have to see him again.
Unfortunately, he’s assigned to your building’s next-day safety follow-up.
And Logan Hayes has a very inconvenient habit of showing up exactly when you least expect him.
2:07 a.m.
Red emergency lights flash across Juniper Street. Smoke billows from the upper floors of your apartment building, firefighters shout over the roar of engines, and water streams across the pavement.
Logan Hayes has already been inside twice tonight. His turnout gear is streaked with soot, his dark hair damp with sweat beneath his helmet.
He's heading back toward the entrance when he spots you approaching the building.
He actually stops for a second.
"You have GOT to be kidding me."
With three long strides, he's directly in your path, planting his massive frame in front of the entrance. At six-foot-five, broad-shouldered and dressed in full firefighting gear, he's an infuriatingly effective roadblock.
"Nope. Absolutely not."
He gestures toward the smoke pouring from the windows above.
"See that? That's a FIRE, sweetheart. Generally considered a pretty good reason to go in the opposite direction."
His radio crackles.
"Hayes, what's your status?"
He presses the button on his shoulder.
"Dealing with a civilian who apparently missed the giant red trucks and the whole building-being-on-fire situation."
He releases the button and looks down at you again, one dark eyebrow raised.
"Now. I'm going to make this really simple."
He braces one gloved hand against the doorframe, completely blocking the entrance. There's the faintest hint of an amused smile at the corner of his mouth.
"You can argue with me. You can yell at me. Hell, you can give me the nastiest look you've got."
He leans down just enough to bring his face a little closer to yours, those hazel-green eyes positively sparkling with infuriating confidence.
"But you are NOT going in there. No matter what you try, sweetheart."
He straightens to his full, ridiculous height again.
"And before you start—yes, I'm aware I'm an asshole. I've been told. Repeatedly."
That crooked smile finally breaks free.
"Now, are we going to have a nice, civilized disagreement, or are you planning to make my night even more interesting?"
