20 | The Unexpected Savior
Phoebe’s POV
Blackness...
Pain...
Lastly numbness...
Each sensation took place in turns.
It felt strange as if someone had doused me inside a large bucket of cold water filled with ice cubes.
Oh, wait! There was indeed ice cubes except being the idiot I was, I fell inside whatever that it was willingly.
Despite being wrapped around a warm heavy duvet, I still felt like being trapped underneath that grass-like surface.
The nerve ending of my skin prickled due to the sudden change of atmosphere from cold to warm. I try to move but it feels like someone is pressing me down on the mattress of the bed on which I was currently residing.
As soon as I register someone dabbing a warm washcloth on my forehead, panic seizes me and with my body still protesting from the recent violence, I do my best to open my eyes and try to sit up.
I open my eyes with a small groan

After all, I really had no wish to watch him crumble because I know it will break me to see him like this, knowing that I’m the one who made him visit a part of his memory lane which he desperately wanted to part with.However, he mistakes my silence as persistence for him to go on and continues with his saying “The whole castle used to be dark and hauntingly scary when I was born.

He used to lock me up in this very room when I was four and I
Fatal Infatuation 22 | Chase Away My Pain
Phoebe’s POV“There is so little I know about you…”I trail off as the words spill out of my mouth and get lost in the stream of water cascading over us. I squeeze my eyes shut because I regret verbalizing my thoughts out as soon as they reach my ears. I already dread Blaze’s reply and expect him to call me a hypocrite because that was exactly what I was being at the moment.Instead, he surprises me by nuzzling his face in the crook of my neck and murmurs tiredly “I knowamour,I know”“Were both being selfish, aren’t we?” I state and stare up at the ceiling with a wistful look on my face. The shiny black marble reflected both of our bare bodies and I observed Blaze’s expression as my question sinks in his head.“I know” He replies with the same answer again. I was feeling a bit irritated after getting the same response again

Phoebe’s POVHe looks at me for the longest time then suddenly he throws me down on the bed.“Whoa Bla-” He unexpectedly cuts me off by kissing me and I open my mouth to provide him access as he slides his tongue.His tongue slowly strokes mine in a strong frenzy and I feel myself growing impossibly wet with each passing second.After what felt like ages, he breaks away from me only to swipe his tongue seductively on the length of my neck and pushes one long finger inside my sex.My gapes open with a loud moan and I move my hips in motion as his fingers keep plunging inside me over and over again, hitting the front wall of my vagina each time.“Damn it, love, you’re dripping wet” He rasps out and I still move my hips in sync to his fingers greedily taking in all that I have to offer.My body bucks off the bed as he hits my g-spot and seeing my face contort with pleasure, he continue

Phoebe’s POVHe fucked like the devil.This was my first thought when I woke up in the morning wrapped around Blaze.For some inexplicable reason, I was relieved to know that he didn’t leave like last time.Huh inexplicableOf course, I knew why I was relieved. If he left like last time, I would’ve been a crying mess by now.The brown silk sheets cocooned us in its warmth as I play the last few days’ occurrences in my head.Jesus! Honestly, it felt like someone dragged me through a car wash with my car’s roof open.Firstly the anxiety of bumping with Nate in Seattle, then this project, the pros, and cons of sleeping with Blaze, the trap at the labyrinth, Nate coming to my rescue, and lastlyfinallysleeping with Blaze.He was a temptation I couldn’t get rid of.

Fatal Infatuation 25 | Genuine Feelings
Phoebe’s POV “You’re wrong” He mumbles so softly that I almost don’t hear him. I turn my head to study his face which was now, unfortunately, devoid of emotions. “I don’t understand,” I say. He looks up and locks his eyes with mine and I see the pain behind those gorgeous orbs. A myriad of emotions was splayed across his eyes. From sorrow to regret, from regret to remorse, from remorse to relief, all of them lasting for a few seconds only to settle with relief. “You’re wrong because whether you believe it or not, you do mean a lot to me, Phoebe. I don’t know why or how this happened but you have no clue how much it hurt me to see you so fragile and weak when Nate brought you in last night. Seeing Nate carrying you inside the castle…” He trails off saying and his eyes squeeze shut with evident fury and frustrations. And continues again “…it made me incredibly angry knowing that because of my stupid mistake, you almo
Fatal Infatuation 26 | Heated Promises
Phoebe’s POVI’m scared.I’m scared because what if Blaze leaves me as soon as he knows about all the gruesome things that I’ve done unintentionally.If it were to be some other men, I wouldn’t have cared much because they wouldn’t have mattered.But the problem was I raised a high bar for Blaze. Deep down inside me, I’ve placed him on a high podium which I claim to believe only belongs to him.I’m afraid that what if he turns out to be just like the rest of those fools who left me because I was too damaged to be ever repaired.I’m afraid to be let down by him because no matter how much I wanted to ignore it, I knew that I was developing strong feelings for this man, and knowing the type of person that I am, it terrified me to feel this way towards him.I release a huge sigh and look up at the false ceiling carved with slim golden flower design and after a while st
Fatal Infatuation 27 | The New Visitor
Phoebe’s POV“I still don’t like the chairs over there,” I say whilst pointing at the silver-rimmed chairs piled near the exit that arrived instead of gold-rimmed ones.I massaged my temples in frustration and rubbed the sweat away from my face with my cotton handkerchief.The sun glared down at us with its scorching heat as we worked on it. Suddenly I regretted sporting my all-black attire.After my heated morning with Blaze, I thankfully reached my room without bumping with any staff except Gerard.Out ofallthe people, I bumped into him right outside Blaze’s room, wearing nothing other than his black button-down shirt. The butler’s face was truly a sight to behold. His usual stoic expression was replaced with one that displayed utter shock when I opened the door with a shirtless Blaze in tow and thankfully he kept his mouth shut after noticing

A nervous habit he always had ever since he was a kid.Darien was my neighbor back in New York when I still lived there. He also happened to be Nate’s best mate. The last time I saw him was the time when he left for Russia to manage his family business after his grandpa passed away from a heart attack.He and I were notthatclose but we were sort of good friends.“You look so different,” He says with wonder and I almost refrain from snorting.“Different as in…?” I curiously ask him even though I had a feeling that I already knew the answer.“I mean uh, like your hair and your style…Uh, how do I say it?” He mutters off and flushes with obvious dis
