Forbidden Flames: Steamy Series Chapter 10 She’s So Hurt
Every fibre of my being desires to devour Zoe’s lips as she sits in front of me, licking her lips while enjoying her favourite ice cream, completely unaware of what she’s doing to me.We came to her favourite cafe after our last class because I promised her I would make up for not giving her time last week.I wonder how her hair would feel wrapped around my fingers when I yank her towards me before capturing her lips and finally knowing how my best friend tastes.Fuck! I want to taste her so badly that it’s driving me insane. Every time she licks her lips, it sends a jolt of electricity through me, making it harder to resist the urge to lean over the table and kiss her.I can’t get the image out of my mind—her beneath me, her lips swollen from my kisses, her body arching towards mine.Zoe is my best friend. My feelings for her were so pure until that night, when everything changed. Now, these wild desires feel so forbidden, so wrong.“Sky…” Zoe snaps her fingers, pulling me out of my

Zoe's P.O.V."Just stop it, Zoe. You can't always behave like a child."As his shout echoes in my ears, tears roll down my cheeks. I'm seated in the backseat of a cab, heading back to my apartment.Although I understand Sky is going through something and is stressed out, his outburst at the cafe is still hurting me.For the first time, he treated me so harshly when I was just trying to cheer him up. Maybe it's my fault for not giving him space.But what am I supposed to do? I can't keep myself away from him when he's going through something. It was so hard to spend my days without talking to him when he was out of town for a week. I was hurt and worried about why he wasn't texting or calling me, and when I finally saw him after a week, all bruised, my heart nearly skipped a beat.I still can't believe that he got involved in a fight. It's a mystery why Sky is behaving so out of character. What's bothering him so much? I'm not convinced that it's just business-related. I feel like he's

Zoe's P.O.V. Two Weeks Later Finally, everything is back to normal with Sky. We've been spending more time together, and he's been less distant. However, I still sense that he's hiding something from me, but I've decided not to press the issue. I also can't get Selena's words out of my mind: that I should look beyond Sky. It's true—my life has revolved around him for so many years that if Sky gets too busy or distant, I feel lost. I've realized that I need to have a life outside of our friendship. The thought of looking beyond him feels impossible, but I'm trying. A few days ago, I started talking with a guy. He's in our college but in a different course. I met him in the library while I was searching for a book. His name is Liam, and he's sweet and kind. We've had a few coffee dates since then. Although I don't enjoy it as much as I enjoy being with Sky, it feels refreshing to have someone new to talk to. Now I know I can't let my happiness depend solely on him. Flashback As

Sky's P.O.V.Right now, my entire body is seething with intense rage as I watch Zoe dancing with that man, Liam.I sit on a bar stool next to Alex, gulping down whiskey, my eyes blazing with fury, fixed on Liam. It's a coincidence that Alex happened to come to the same club where Zoe and I are.The way Liam is holding her waist, pulling her close, feels like someone is ripping my heart out of my chest. I want to push him away from her, to claim what's mine, but I can't. Not without revealing my desire for Zoe, and certainly not without causing a scene."Getting jealous of seeing your best friend with another man? Amazing." As Alex notices my gaze on Zoe and Liam on the dance floor, a smirk plays on his lips."What the fuck are you talking about? Nonsense." I shoot him a glare.Even though he's right, I can't bring myself to admit it in front of him, especially since I'm not ready to fully acknowledge it myself."Nonsense, really?" He raises his brows at me. "But your look says otherwi

Zoe's P.O.V.I had always imagined my first kiss to be a tingling excitement, with butterflies in my stomach and a racing heart. But as Liam leans in to kiss me, I feel nothing—no flutter in my chest, no skipped beats, no spark or passion.I turn my face away, avoiding his lips. "Liam, I'm sorry," I say, gently pushing him back. "I can't do this."He looks at me, confusion and hurt written across his face. "Did I do something wrong?"I shake my head. "No. It's just that I want to take things slow. I hope you don't mind."His face softens, and he nods. "Of course, Zoe. I respect that.""Thank you for understanding," I say, giving him a small smile.Liam is kind and sweet, and I do like him, but why didn't I feel anything when he was about to kiss me? Maybe I just need more time.Liam had brought me to his place from the club to show me his library, which led to this moment.As we step out of his library, my phone dings in my sling bag. I take it out and see a text from Sky.As I read i

Sky's P.O.V.In the hospital, I sit in the wardroom as a nurse cleans the wound on my forehead. Zoe stands beside me, holding my two fingers like always, her worry etched deeply in her furrowed brows and her lips pressed into a thin line. Whenever she is worried or stressed, she holds my fingers like this.I'm relieved that Zoe is with me now, not with that fucking Liam. But deep inside, I feel guilty for deliberately putting myself in trouble and calling Zoe. I made her so worried about me. If she ever finds out that I intentionally did this, I'm certain it'll certainly be my last day on Earth.To be honest, I can't recognise myself now. I'm doing things I've never done before in my life. I can't believe I crashed my car because of jealousy.But I don't have any other option. I can't tell Zoe about my feelings right now because I'm scared of losing her forever. And there's no way I'll let any man get close to her. I'll do anything in my power to keep my Trouble away from Liam and any

Sky's P.O.V.At night, as I lie in bed, my mind swirls with thoughts of how to keep Zoe away from Liam. Every time I close my eyes, I see Liam trying to kiss her, and it makes my blood boil. I can't let that happen. I won't.Liam should never come to know the taste of Zoe's lips. Every inch of her body belongs to me, and I can't let anybody take that right away from me.I have to think of something because I can't be with Zoe twenty-four hours a day to keep her away from Liam.Running my fingers through my hair, I sit up, trying to think of a plan. I can't physically hurt Liam because that would only make things worse. But maybe I can scare him enough to make him back off.An idea strikes me, and I grab my phone and download a voice-changing app. I know what I'm planning to do is wrong, but desperate situations require drastic actions. I can't let Zoe get close to Liam, not when I've accepted my desire for her.Right now, I may not be able to tell Zoe how I feel and how much I desire

Stella’s P.O.V. "Can we have the same sandwich we had last time, please?" I ask as he opens my door and I step out.“No.” He denies it, shutting the door close. I look at him in shock. “Why?” He lets out a laugh, tapping my nose. "I was just kidding, Stella. Of course, we can have that sandwich. Today, whatever you want, we'll do. It's your day, my love."“Who could’ve thought that the Mr Grumpy would get so sweet one day.” I pull his cheeks, causing him to chuckle. “Now I’m yours Mr NMG.” He leans in and pecks on my cheek, making me grin. Then we head inside and eat sandwiches from the stall. My birthday is already going so amazingly. First, I woke up to my room decorated with so many gifts—it felt like a dream. And now, these delicious sandwiches! Wow! As we finish our sandwiches, Alex takes my hand and guides me towards the ice rink. When we enter, I notice something unusual—the entire rink is completely empty. My face falls as I glance around, thinking that the rink might be

Alex’s P.O.V.“Anyway, what were you doing in the mall?” I question, glancing at Stella, who is sitting in the passenger seat beside me as I drive us back home.“Actually, I’ve also planned something for my birthday.”My eyes widen in surprise at her words. “What? Why didn’t you tell me?”“Because it was a surprise for you, Alex.” She pouts at me.I shake my head in disbelief. “You’re planning something for me on your birthday? Unbelievable.”“You deserve it.” She locks her eyes filled with profound love on me. “You’ve done so much for me, Alex. I want this birthday to be about us.”I glance over, feeling like I’m falling for her all over again. “You know, you’re amazing.”She reaches over and squeezes my hand. “Then just wait. Tomorrow will be unforgettable—for both of us. And you won’t stop praising me.”“I’m quite excited now. But what about the surprise I’ve planned for you?” I raise my brows at her.“Your surprise?” She taps her finger on her chin thoughtfully, which brings a smi

But now, I’ve hurt her when I meant to make her feel special.I hurry toward the parking lot, my heart pounding with worry.Shit! I shouldn’t have lied to her. The betrayal of her ex-boyfriend has left deep scars on her which take time to heal. She is trying so hard to move on and give a second chance to love. And now, because of my lie, she’s reliving that pain.I’m such an idiot.As I reach the parking lot, I spot her near her car. She’s standing there, her arms wrapped around herself, her eyes moist. She looks small and vulnerable. My heart aches at the sight.I just rush towards her and embrace her tightly into my arms. “I’m so fucking sorry, Flower. Trust me, I had no intention of hurting you.” I apologise, pulling her closer to me.“I trust you, Alex. In fact, I’m sorry for doubting you in the first place.”A smile flashes across my face at her words, and I pull her back

Stella’s P.O.V.Two Weeks LaterAfter the last lecture of the day, I leave for the mall. Tomorrow is my birthday, but all I can think about is surprising Alex. For the past two weeks, I’ve been holding back from telling him how I really feel, resisting the urge to confess my love. I want this moment to be perfect, something unforgettable—for both of us.I’ve waited for his arm to heal properly, and now that he’s almost back to full strength, it feels like the perfect time to show him how much he means to me.Thankfully, he has gone to another college for a basketball match today, giving me the entire day to arrange everything for my surprise.I’m going to buy a dress for myself, but it’ll be a sexy one—just for Alex. He makes me feel confident about my body, and I know that now when I wear it, I’ll truly love how I look.

Forbidden Flames: Steamy Series Chapter 50 Ride Me, Stella
Alex’s P.O.V.Fuck!It’s so hard being at home without Stella. I miss her so much—even though we’re texting each other every few minutes. She tells me she is home, but she’s taking the time to come to my room, and I haven’t seen her in five hours. It’s pure torture, and this pain in my arm is fucking killing me.Just then, only she slips into my room from the balcony. The second I see her, a smile spreads across my face and the pain almost fades away.“How are you, Alex?” She asks, her face full of concern as she sits beside me on the bed. “Honesty, I wasn’t doing great,” I admit, taking her hand in mine. “But now that you’re here, I’m feeling so much better.” I kiss her knuckles. She smiles and I continue, squeezing her hand and fixing my eyes on her. “You know today, I learned why you’re so sweet and kind.”She looks confused at my words.“It’s because of your mom, Stella. She took such good care of me today, even feeding me like you did last night.” I rub my thumb gently across h

Stella’s P.O.V.The next day, as I get ready for college, I make sure to wear the watch. I don’t want to go to college without Alex. But I can’t stay with him because my mom will start to suspect something. I’m not ready to tell her about us yet. I’m scared of how she’ll react, or if she’ll try to keep us apart.I can’t even imagine living without Alex now.Through the balcony, I enter Alex’s room. My chest becomes heavy with pain as I find him wincing in pain, sitting on the sofa. He didn’t get much sleep last night either. Every time he shifted, I could feel his discomfort. I wish I could take away all his pain with a snap of my fingers.I approach him with sadness evident in my eyes. Although he is in pain, he smiles at me and takes my hand in his before gently pulling me onto his lap. “Flower, I’ll be fine. Don’t worry,” he says, placing his hand on my face, his thumb brushing over my cheek.I sigh, letting my fingers trace the bandage on his arm. “Alex, I just can’t stand seeing
Forbidden Flames: Steamy Series Chapter 48 A Little Punishment
Olivia’s P.O.V.After meeting Alex, I walk to my room. I can’t believe Alex is the son of a monster. He risked his own life to save my daughter. I’m glad he is there for Stella. She deserves a man like Alex, not like my ex-husband or Jackson.As I enter my room, I find Jackson sitting on the sofa, puffing on his cigarette. I know he must be planning to torture me.“Lock the door.” He commands, and I instantly comply because I can’t bear to take his punishment.As I turn after locking the door, his words send shivers down my spine. “You’ll be punished now.”I swallow hard, trying to stay calm as my hands tremble. “What did I do wrong?”“Your daughter has brought trouble into my son’s life,” he sneers. “He wouldn’t be suffering if it weren’t for her.”“It’s not anybody’s fault. You can’t punish me like this,” I complain, although I know he won’t listen to me.He smirks. “Oh? Would you prefer I punish her instead? I have no qualms about that.”His words send a jolt through me, and my eye

Alex’s P.O.V.We arrive back home after dinner. My burned arm aches like hell, but I try not to let it show because Stella is already worried enough.As we step inside, I see Dad sitting with Stella’s mother on the couch. They both notice me wincing slightly as I move my arm, and their expressions shift immediately to concern.“Alex, what happened to you?” Dad approaches as he notices the bandage.Before I can answer, Stella steps forward. “There… there was a fire in our classroom, and Alex protected me.”Stella’s mother places her hand on my uninjured shoulder. “Thank you, Alex. I can’t even imagine…” Her voice fades off, gratitude clear in her eyes.Dad nods, giving me a proud smile. “That’s brave of you, son. But you need to rest now. Go on, get some sleep.”I turn to head to my room, and Stella follows me. As we reach outside my room, she leans close and whispers, “I’ll come to your room from the balcony after taking a shower.”“I’ll be waiting for you.” I lean in and kiss her ch
Forbidden Flames: Steamy Series Chapter 46 I Trust Him
Stella’s P.O.V. After visiting the doctor, we head straight to Sky and Zoe’s apartment. Selena, Zoe, and I go into the bedroom, while Sky and Alex stay in the living room. Zoe and Selena waste no time and pull me onto the bed between them. They exchange a quick look, and then Zoe gives me a curious smile. “So… are you going to tell us what exactly is going on between you and Alex?” My cheeks flush instantly. I knew we came here for this conversation only. Before I can answer her, Selena says, “Zoe, we have already seen in the college what’s going on. They both are so much in love. But the question is, how did this happen? Seriously, Stella, the two of you couldn’t be in the same room without arguing about something.“ I let out a laugh, my mind flashing back to all those arguments and sarcastic exchanges, which now feel like distant memories. Alex changed so suddenly. One day, he wasn’t leaving a chance to annoy me, and the next day, he became so sweet to me. I couldn’t digest it
