All Chapters of Forbidden Flames: Steamy Series: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Stella’s P.O.V.“Stella.” As I walk to my room, I stop as Alex calls me out.We’ve just returned from his beach villa.I know why he is calling me. He wants me to sleep with him. Even I want to, but I’m terrified.“Alex, I can’t sleep with you.” Without turning back, I respond before he can say anything.As he steps in front of me, I avoid looking at him.He gently holds my chin and pulls it up to make me look at him. “Stella, I know. You’re scared. But please let me take care of you. I know you can’t able to sleep alone.” His eyes are filled with honesty.I want to trust him, but I’m afraid to become a fool again. How do I explain him? “Please come to my room.” He requests and I can’t able to deny him.“Okay.” I nod.A small smile spreads across his face, and he presses his lips on my forehead. I close my eyes to feel his touch. It’s so soothing. Taking my hand in his, he takes me to his room.***Zoe: How’re you now? Sky told me you’re not fine.Me: I had a headache in the morning

Stella’s P.O.V.I sit in the warm water of the bathtub, and Alex sits right beside the tub, holding my hand.I look at him, still struggling to understand how Alex could love someone as broken as me. How can he love a woman who can barely hold herself together? Yet, here he is, his fingers entwined with mine, his gaze never wavering, filled with a tenderness I never thought anyone would have for me.He told me I fixed him. I seriously don’t understand when I did it.“Stella…” he calls me out, breaking the silence. “What happened at the jewellery store?”My hands tremble as I recall about the pendant and tears well up in my eyes. When will these painful memories stop affecting me? I fucking don’t want to cry for that bastard anymore.He places his one hand on my cheek and squeezes my hand with his other one. “Let it out, Flower,” he murmurs. “You’ll feel better.”Tears trickle down my cheeks as I begin telling him, my voice trembling. “I saw a woman purchasing the pendant which I purch

Alex’s P.O.V.It’s Sunday morning, and I watch Stella sitting at the breakfast counter as she makes the cake for her mother because today is her birthday.I can gaze at her like this all day. Seriously, I can’t recognise the person I’ve become after falling in love with her. But I like myself. This love makes me feel alive and contented.She whisks the batter, glancing at me. “Don’t look at me like that, Alex?”“Why not?” I raise my brows at her.“Because you’re distracting me and we can’t do anything here. My mother and your father are at home, and they can catch us.”I smirk at her, leaning against the counter. “So my plan is working.”She shakes her head, trying to hide the hint of a smile, and focuses back on her mixing bowl. “Not in the kitchen, Alex. I’m serious. We’re not alone today.”“Not my fault.” I shrug, walking closer to her. “You’re looking irresistible right now,” I say, making her cheeks flush a little.She loves it when I compliment her.“Can’t you think about anythi

Alex’s P.O.V.Stella: Everyone is praising my outfit. I never felt so confident before in my life. Thank you.I read the text from Stella while sitting at the bar counter with Sky in the hall of my house where the party is being held.I feel a different kind of satisfaction, knowing she’s finally finding the confidence. But the thought of that bastard Jade, who broke her spirit, still fuels anger within me. As long as he and his girlfriend remain captives, they’ll pay for every bit of insecurity they left in her mind.I quickly type out a response.Me: I’m glad to know this.I glance over to where Stella is standing with Zoe and Selena, looking absolutely stunning. She’s laughing, her eyes bright, and I can’t stop myself from getting lost in her. She looks hot, strong, and beautiful.A grin spread across my face as I type out another message.Me: I can’t take my eyes off you, Flower. You look so sexy. After the party, I’m going to make you scream my name the entire night.As I hit the

Alex’s P.O.V.I return to the party, my eyes searching for my girl. I find her talking to her mother. Her cheeks are red. She looks more beautiful now.So damn Mine!She has awakened a love within me I never knew existed, a love so profound, so all-consuming, that it has forever changed me.“Alex…” Sky calls me out from behind, and as I turn around, he adds, his expression solemn. “We need to talk.”He walks out of the house, and I follow him, wondering what he wants to talk about.As we reach the garden, he asks, “Is it Stella?”“What…” I’m taken aback by his direct question.“Don’t act innocent. You know what I mean.”I know now it’s useless to lie to him. He already knows.“Yeah! It’s Stella.” I nod at him.“You hated her.” He stares at me in disbelief.Hated her? Never. I just pretended to, because from the beginning, deep inside, I knew she had the power to break down the walls I’d built around my heart.“It’s true that I was annoyed by her in the beginning, but never hated.
