Lustful Desire Chapter 106.
Blair's POVI was still crying when I heard a knock on my window. I was so surprised to see Sandra, motioning for me to wind down the glass. Instead of whining down, I opened the door and got out of the car.“What did you want?!” I yelled at her.“Well, I’m here to apologize to you. I and Thomas love each other and you know, our love story was more like fate,” she said, sounding so insincere. Instead of replying to her, I angrily slapped her across the face. The world spun for a moment as my hand met Sandra's cheek with a stinging crack. The insincerity dripping from her apology was too much to bear. Tears welled up again, a mix of fury and fresh hurt.She reeled back, hand flying to her reddening face, eyes wide with shock. The picture of fake innocence on her face shattered in an instant."Don't you dare try to play the victim here, Sandra," I spat, my voice laced with venom. I jabbed a finger at her chest, each word a hammer blow. "You think a cheesy line about soulmates erases t

Blair’s POVWe continued talking and then he asked for my name.“I’m Blair and you?” I asked.“James,” he replied to me curtly.“Wow, it was nice meeting you James and thanks for listening to me tonight, it really means a lot to me,” I said to him.“It’s my pleasure, Blair,” he replied to me.“And you look so good by the way,” he added.And then he surprised me with a compliment. I thought to myself that it could be a sign that he was interested in getting to know me better.I flirted back, complimenting his looks as well. “Ohhh, well you are not looking bad as well, handsome James,” I replied to him with a smile. He only nodded his head and continued sipping his drink. I also focused on my drink as well and just then, things got a bit out of hand. I started feeling the effects of the alcohol - feeling tipsy. James, looking out for you, told me to slow down on the drinking but that wasn't the best idea though, because instead of listening, I decided to keep going and even finished the

Amelia's POVThe silence stretched on, a charged space filled with the unspoken words that hung heavy in the air. I could feel the warmth radiating off of Eddie as he sat close, his presence a tangible thing. Every fiber of my being wanted to lean in, to bridge the gap between us and explore the emotions bubbling just beneath the surface."Amelia," Eddie finally began, his voice low and hesitant, breaking the comfortable silence. "About Alex's offer…"My gaze darted away from his, a flicker of indecision clouding my eyes. Alex's offer of a fresh start in Paris had seemed like a welcome escape hatch just moments ago. Now, with Eddie's hand reaching out to brush a stray strand of hair behind my ear, the appeal seemed to have dimmed considerably."Yes?" I prompted, forcing a lightness into my voice that I didn't quite feel."Have you… have you given it any more thought?""Some," I admitted, the truth tasting bittersweet on my tongue. "He called me, you know. He offered me a position as h

Blair's POVThrowing the covers off, I fumbled for my clothes, scattered haphazardly across the floor. My dress, thankfully, was salvageable. I threw it on, wincing at the sharp sting in my ankle from the forgotten blister heel I'd insisted on wearing.Just as I reached the bedroom door, the sound of clattering dishes reached my ears. My stomach lurched. He was awake.Taking a deep breath, I crept towards the door, hoping to slip out unnoticed. But the aroma of frying bacon and freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air, stopping me dead in my tracks. My stomach, traitorously empty after a night of liquid courage, rumbled loudly.The sound seemed to echo through the quiet apartment. I winced, bracing myself for the inevitable confrontation."There you are," a cheerful voice boomed from the kitchen. "Sleeping beauty has finally awakened."I peeked through the doorway, my cheeks burning. James stood by the counter, a spatula in hand, a playful smile on his face. He was dressed in a si

Blair's POVHe chuckled, the sound warm and genuine. "So, coffee it is then. Tell me more about this oncology residency. What made you choose that path?"I hesitated, surprised by his genuine interest. Most people's eyes glazed over when I mentioned the specifics of my job. But something about James, his easy demeanor and quiet attentiveness, made me want to share."It wasn't always the plan," I confessed, taking a long sip of coffee. "I actually started out pre-med with the intention of going into pediatrics. But then my best friend's mom, who's just like a mom to me got ill and I..." I shrugged, not wanting to think about how painful it had been for both Amelia and I to find out about Mom's cancer.and I just got swept up in the fight," I finished. "Seeing the way the oncologist explained things to her, the way she gave Mom hope, even in the face of something so terrifying… It inspired me. I wanted to be on that side of the equation, fighting for people's lives."James listened inte

Blair's POVI hesitated for a beat, the memory of Thomas' betrayal still a fresh wound. But then I looked at James, at his genuine smile and kind eyes. Maybe, just maybe, it was okay to take a chance, to explore something new, even if it scared me a little."Deal," I said, a small smile gracing my lips. "But no pressure. Just getting to know someone who doesn't need a biopsy on their first date sounds pretty good right now."He threw his head back and laughed again, the sound washing over me like a warm wave. In that moment, surrounded by the aroma of coffee and the unexpected warmth of his laughter, it felt like a sliver of hope had peeked through the cracks of my heartbreak. The tension in the air seemed to dissipate with our laughter, replaced by a comfortable camaraderie. We finished our breakfast in companionable silence, the clinking of silverware and the soft murmur of the radio the only sounds.As I pushed back from the table, the weight of reality settled back in. I had a shi

Amelia's POVBlair launched into a detailed account of how she had found out that Thomas had been cheating on her with Sandra and the fight that came after, her voice filled with a raw mix of anger and hurt. My heart ached for her. This wasn't just a simple break-up; it was a shattering of trust and a future they'd both envisioned.As she spoke, I threw off the covers and shuffled towards the kitchen, the phone tucked between my ear and shoulder.By the time I poured myself a steaming cup of coffee and grabbed a bagel, Blair had finished recounting the fight. Now, a hesitant note had crept into her voice as she explained the one-night stand. She told me about the club, the overwhelming pain, and the chance encounter with this guy named James.I walked back to my room, carrying my bagel and coffee in both hands with my phone between my ear and my shoulder. "I know, I know," she said, anticipating my reaction. "It wasn't me. But I just… I don't know, Amelia. Maybe I just needed an esca

Amelia's POVI feigned a gasp, clutching my chest dramatically. "A monster? Here? On a bright Sunday morning?"Chloe, undeterred by my theatrics, nodded sagely. "Monsters don't have calendars, silly. They can come anytime.""True, true," I conceded. "But fear not, brave adventurer, for Aunt Amelia is here to protect you."She looked at me like she did not believe me, scanning my body with an adorable wrinkle on her face and making me chuckle. Suddenly, there was a yell from the kitchen just as the smoke alarm started ringing. Chloe and I took one look at each other before rushing downstairs. I got to the kitchen and saw Eddie frantically waving a towel at a burning pan. He was swearing like a teenager who just learned about cuss words for the first time. He was surrounded by a cloud of smoke at the stove and fanning it with his hand.“AH! Amelia! Help!” He was still swatting at the smoking pan.I push by him and pick up the pan. He had already turned off the burner, and nothing wa

Lustful Desire Chapter 207.
Amelia’s POVIt's been a few weeks since Eddie and I had gotten back together. It had taken him only a couple of weeks to convince me to move in with him again, but this time around, it was not as his nanny or his chef, it was as his girlfriend. According to him, he wanted to spend as much time as possible before I had to go back to Florida to resume duty with my agency. Jenna had been slammed with a restraining order along with the promise of a lawsuit if she did not leave us alone. For good measure, Eddie had made sure to properly adopt Chloe as his legal daughter. That way Jenna would not be able to cause us any more trouble.“Babe! Hurry up, we're gonna be late!” That was Edie yelling from downstairs, while I was in the closet in his… in our room, getting ready. Together with my parents, Blair, James, and Chloe, we were all going to a restaurant to celebrate my mom finally beating cancer.I looked down at Chloe who had gotten her hand on my lipgloss and was now putting it on and

Eddie’s POVAmelia's gaze flickered between me and the bustling crowd before she sighed and gestured toward a doorway at the back."Let's talk somewhere else, shall we?"I did not want to have to talk to her. I wanted to be with her at my home, where I could talk to her and have all to myself."Forget the break room," I said, a newfound determination coursing through me. "Let's go somewhere we can actually talk."Amelia hesitated, then shrugged. "Alright," she conceded. "But I do have to finish my shift first."Frustration bubbled up within me, but I knew pushing her wouldn't help. "Fine," I muttered, trying to tamp down on my impatience. "How long?""Just another hour," she replied, checking her watch. "How about we meet somewhere? My place isn't really ideal.""My place is close by," I offered, surprising myself with the boldness. "It's quiet, we can talk there."Amelia raised an eyebrow. "Your place? That wasn't exactly part of the plan, Eddie.""Well, plans change," I said, a play

Eddie’s POV"It was a mistake, Eddie," she choked out, her voice barely audible. "A one-time thing… a long time ago.""A one-time thing?" I repeated, my voice cracking. The image of a younger, naive Jenna flashed before my eyes, a girl I thought I knew everything about. Now, she seemed like a stranger."Who was he?" I demanded with the need to know gnawing at me.Jenna hesitated, then whispered a name I vaguely recognized. It was someone from the film industry, a rising star she'd met during her brief stint in Los Angeles. They had a short fling, a whirlwind romance that ended as quickly as it began.The revelation hit me like a sucker punch. All the doubts I'd ignored, the whispers in the back of my mind, the nagging feeling that things weren't quite right – it all came flooding back with a terrifying clarity. Years of my life were built on a lie. Chloe, my sweet, innocent daughter, was caught in the crossfire of my naivety and Jenna's betrayal.Fury boiled within me, a churning infe

Eddie’s POVThe doctor gave a small smile. "Of course. Let her rest for a few minutes, and then you can go in."As we waited, James explained what little he knew. He'd been picking up Chloe from school when a call came through from the hospital. Apparently, another kid had swerved into Chloe's path while riding his scooter.A surge of anger flared up within me. How could someone be so careless? But the anger quickly dissipated, replaced by a fierce protectiveness over my little girl.Minutes later, we were ushered into the room. Chloe lay propped up in bed, her face pale and drawn, a white cast encasing her arm. Tears welled up in her eyes as she saw me."Daddy!" she cried out, her voice small and wobbly.My heart ached at the sight of her distress. "Hey, champ," I said, rushing to her side and pulling her into a gentle hug, careful not to jostle her injured arm. "It's okay, I'm here now."She buried her face in my chest, her small body trembling slightly. I showered her with comforti

Amelia’s POVThe question hung heavy in the air. Friends? Could we really go back to that after everything that had happened? A part of me longed for the simplicity of our old friendship, the easy camaraderie we'd shared. But another part of me worried that friendship wouldn't be enough. The feelings I had for Eddie, the unspoken desires that had simmered beneath the surface of our relationship, wouldn't just disappear. They would linger, a constant reminder of what could have been.Taking a deep breath, I typed out a reply. "I… I don't know, Eddie. Honestly, I need some time to think. This whole situation has been a lot to process.""I understand," he replied almost instantly. "Take all the time you need. Just know that… I care about you, Amelia. More than you probably realize."His words sent a blush creeping up my neck. Did he really feel the same way? Or was this just a desperate attempt to hold onto me in any way he could? I didn't have the answers, and the uncertainty gnawed at
Lustful Desire Chapter 202.
Amelia’s POVI stared at the message for what felt like an eternity, my mind a battlefield of conflicting emotions. Finally, with a shaky breath, I typed out a reply."Eddie," I began, my fingers hovering over the screen, "I… I don't know what to say. Thank you for the money. It means the world to me and my mom. But ...is everything alright? James said you collapsed. Are you in the hospital?" I hit send, the weight of the question hanging heavy in the air. The money, the cryptic message – it all pointed to something more serious than he was letting on.The wait for a response stretched into an agonizing eternity. Just as I started to pace the room, my phone buzzed. It was Eddie."Amelia," his voice rasped through the phone, weaker than I'd ever heard it. "Yes, I'm in the hospital. They're still trying to figure things out, but the doctor says I have Angiina due to stress."My chest tightened. Stress. The word echoed in my head, a stark reminder of the turmoil I'd left him in. "Eddie,"
Lustful Desire Chapter 201.
Amelia’s POVI knew that there was no way that he and Jenna had actually been together in the way that she had been insinuating.Jenna had probably been playing another of her manipulative tricks. Regardless, I was exhausted and had had to tell myself that it would be better to end it with Eddie than to be dealing with hurt and frustration every day. James had been giving me updates on both Chloe and Eddie and although I knew I should tell him to stoop so that I could have a clean break, I did not think I had the heart to do so.The rhythmic rumble of the bus engine vibrated through the worn leather seat I occupied. Outside the window, the cityscape blurred into a kaleidoscope of colors, each passing image signifying my new reality. A reality where I, Amelia Brooks, was no longer Eddie Turner's nanny. Today's successful interview meant I could finally stand on my own two feet, financially independent. A bittersweet victory, considering the reason behind this newfound freedom.A soft c
Lustful Desire Chapter 200.
Eddie’s POVHis words held a truth that stung. Jenna's behavior had become increasingly erratic, her possessiveness suffocating. But the thought of facing Amelia, of dredging up the hurt and confusion of that day, filled me with dread.I could not say anything, I could only nod my head in response. Just then, my head began to pound again, this time around in sync with my heart.My vision swam, the pounding in my head morphing into a relentless drum solo. The room seemed to tilt on its axis, James' concerned face warping into a blurry mess. A guttural cough ripped through me, sending another jolt of pain lancing through my chest."James…" I croaked, the word a raspy whisper. My hand reached out, blindly grasping for something solid. My fingers brushed against the armrest of the chair, anchoring me momentarily."Eddie, mate! What's wrong?" James' voice was laced with alarm, his concern cutting through the fog clouding my mind."Head…" I managed, the word slurred. My grip on the armrest

Eddie’s POVAmelia had left a gaping hole in my heart."But will she ever come back?" Chloe persisted, her lower lip trembling slightly."I… I don't know, sweetheart," I admitted, the truth a bitter pill to swallow. A heavy sigh escaped Chloe's tiny lips. "Okay," she mumbled, staring out the window with a wistful expression. The silence stretched between us, thick with unspoken emotions.Reaching over, I squeezed her hand gently. "Look," I began, my voice softened with love. "No matter what happens with Amelia, you'll always be my little girl. And no matter what, I'll always be here for you. Always."Chloe looked at me, a flicker of reassurance sparking in her eyes. "Really?" she asked, her voice a hesitant whisper."Really," I confirmed, my voice firm with conviction. "You're the most important thing in the world to me, you know that?"She nodded slowly, a small smile gracing her lips. For a moment, the tension seemed to ease, a fragile connection established between us.Reaching t
