All Chapters of Fatal Infatuation: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Phoebe’s POVAfter hoursThe Weeknd’s ‘After Hours’ song was exactly what my life felt at the moment except I wasn’t crooning about unprotected sex and wanting babies.Speaking of babies, I screw my eyes shut when one of the kids from the nearby booth wails his lungs off. I mean seriously, why can’t these parents just discipline their kids properly? It wasn’t like I hated children, I do love them. Like Kyle’s daughter Sophie for instance, the mere thought of that angel makes my heart brim with happiness.“You know what? I’m one step away from strangling that kid!” Ava groans out and clutches her head tightly in her hands as she shoots daggers at the bratty kid who is still bawling his eyes out over some milkshake, much to our annoyance.“Hey! Easy there! I don’t think that the peaceful citizens of Seattle would appreciate a display of child abuse

Phoebe’s POVThe cool water feels refreshing against my hands as I keep them under the running water of the sink. As much as I would love to splash cold water over my face, I don’t want to ruin my make-up.I think I’m still in shock over what happened. As soon as Blaze saw me, I quickly excused myself from Uncle Ryan and bolted towards the powder room. For a moment I considered staying here until the dinner is served but the thought seemed quite ridiculous.If someone told me three weeks back that I’ll be attending this Gala only to avoid someone else instead of Nate, I would’ve totally laughed my ass off. Now that I’m really in this situation, I don’t even know what to do. If the circumstances were different, I would’ve probably ended up calling Alana to hear her wise words but now, I’m not so sure that I even want to see her face, let alone listening to her voice.Great! Now I ne

Phoebe’s POVThe harsh glare of the sunlight forces me to blink my eyes open to welcome the bright morning. The curtains were cast aside and on the left side of the sliding door, stood no one other than Blaze himself.He was dressed casually in a white V-neck t-shirt with black sweatpants that hung on his hips lowly, accentuating the narrowness of his muscular abdomen.He was smiling down at me warmly and held out a glass of red-colored liquid that looked like cranberry juice. I hoist myself up on the mattress and try my best not to wince visibly as sharp arrows of pain shoot through my entire lower region, making sure that the dark grey silk duvet is wrapped around my naked top. There wasn’t anything that he didn’t see before but it was the first time for me to wake up with him around which kind of made me feel shy.Usually, I left the room at the whisper of dawn when we were in Monaco. The only time we woke up to each

Phoebe’s POVI finished curling my hair when the clock struck 5:30 pm and quickly entered my closet to find a decent outfit for tonight. Honestly speaking, I had no clue what to wear. I didn’t know if this was a date or a simple dinner. I mean what do you wear to a man’s house who you’re fucking?As I said earlier, sex has never been on my top list of priorities which is another reason why I’ve never had fuck-buddies. Sure I had plenty of one-night stands now and then, but they were just that.I went on dates too, but the majority of them were spent talking for hours about useless stuff and ended with the men talking, sorry, let me correct myself, boasting, about their job and wealth to the point where I just simply gave up going out on dates altogether.After rummaging inside the closet for a long time, I finally settle for a chiffon white off-shoulder top pairing it with a light peach-pink sho

Phoebe’s POVHis gentle fingers play with the loose strands of my disheveled hair as I rest my right cheek on top of his chest, over his heart, feeling the gentle rhythmic beat.“You know…” I lift my head from his chest slightly, instantly missing the warmth of his skin as I move away to stare into his hypnotic blue eyes, “You really know how to get a girl’s appetite back don’t you?”He chuckles lightly and turns to check the clock on his bedside which now reads 1:00 am.“I have my talents, what can I say?” He replies coyly.That was indeed true.We have been going at it for four hours straight and right now my body felt like a total train wreck although I can’t say the same for him.“That you do…” I peck the spot right above his heart and feel the skin rising a bit quicker than usual underneath
