Phoebe’s POV
I gasped as I felt tremors of horror ripple through me as I heard Noah on the other side of the door. Blaze on the other hand looked annoyed. I quickly slipped off his desk and looked at him for help. He quickly pointed towards another door on the left side of the study passing the large bay windows, overlooking the lake.
I swiftly sprinted towards the door and once inside, I pushed the lock button on the doorknob and locked it close. I released a quick breath of relief and realized that I was inside a spacious washroom.

Fatal Infatuation 10 | Invitation To Sin
Phoebe’s POVSoon it was evening and I was on my way to my room returning fromIrisfield.My crew already started doing their work after I instructed them accordingly.My whole time was spent inside the palace shouting people instructions to move things and talked with laborers and architects about the safety precautions since the place was really old and I did not want to take any chances of bricks or cement falling off.So I made sure that the majority of the dents were covered, floors checked twice to see if there was any creaking, modern equipment was installed, all rooms air-conditioned and especially all the dirt dusted to perfection. I studied the blue-print by heart so that I don’t get lost the next time around and noticed a couple of queer things.For instance, there were a few blank spaces here and there in the blueprints as if someone knowingly erased the maps to those certain areas and there were

Fatal Infatuation 15 | Secrets?
Phoebe’s POVI stepped outside and noted with approval as I looked around the vast hallways. It was truly elegant in a magnificent manner. This floor had a good view given the fact that this was the top floor and vast balconies surrounded the circular-shaped hall. Since it was dark outside because of the stormy weather, the chandeliers on the ceiling were lighted and cast a small glow.I traced my hands on the sandstone brick walls, enjoying the feel of its rough texture beneath my palms, and spot the ‘library’ sign at the far end down to the right side.The double doors were enormous and carved beautifully. I pushed open the doors and soon my nostrils filled with the rusty smell of old books and sage which always had the ability to comfort me like nothing ever has.
