Phoebe’s POVThe grainy sand underneath my skin feels soothing and therapeutic as we lay underneath the lit-up sky. The stars twinkled and winked at us with the sea-water lapping at our entangled limbs.My mind felt refreshed and for the first time, I felt at peace. I felt like everything was going just the way I wanted it to be.“What’s going around that beautiful head of yours?” Blaze asks, pulling me out of my star-gazing, and I roll over to face him.“Nothing in particular actually” I shrug and inquire, “What about you?”“I’m thinking…” He drawls out in a playful tone and at that moment I know that he’s about to say something funny, “…how smoothly tonight went”I knew that he was going to say something awfully sarcastic like that!I swat him on the chest and laugh with my head thrown back.“Yeah&

Phoebe's POVI think all the air evaporates from my body as I whip my head to look in her direction again. Only this time, I scrutinize her properly from head to toe. I instantly cringe when I register her magnetic presence.She was awfully gorgeousI feel my hands fist on their own accord when I see Blaze’s eyes still locked with her.Her beautiful symmetrical face was visible to me as she removed her silver mask. She was wearing a silver organza gown which accentuated her hourglass figure and unfortunately, she didn’t look like the slutty type of ex you read about in novels. She looked very well-groomed. Her wavy platinum blond hair was pulled into a loose chignon bun and her make-up was minimal like mine.However, my vision loses her when I feel Blaze literally drag me away from her like I’m some rag doll and she’s a bully who’s about to snatch awa

Phoebe’s POVThe beeping sound of machines is the first sound I hear as I open my eyes only to be greeted with the cold sterile atmosphere of the hospital walls.Weirdly enough, my body doesn’t really hurt as I expected it to after the car crash. After blinking my eyes open, I make out the vague outline of a middle-aged nurse in blue scrubs, jotting down something on the clipboard.As if sensing my consciousness, she looks up with a wide smile and flashes me her pearly whites.“Ciao cara, come ti senti?” I frown in confusion at the language that she’s speaking and watch her smile falter upon seeing my confused state.She spews a few more words in a language that I presume is Italian and holds up three of her fingers frantically, waving them in front of my face.What the fuck…Did they admit me with lunatics or what? Where the fuck am I even? Shit, is

Blaze’s POV“I’m so sorry but I can’t do this anymore, Blaze. I’m tired of you. I’m tired of constantly being left in the dark. I’m tired of your possessive nature. You always hurt me and I can’t keep ignoring the fact that you have tons of secrets that I have no clue on. I hope you move on with some new girl. It would make me happy. I always had commitment issues Blaze…which is why I can’t do this anymore. Please, don’t contact me from now on”Her written words keep circling inside my head like some endless loop that won’t just fucking stop!I feel like killing myself for always being such an arse. I always feared for this day to come, the day when Phoebe will finally realize that she’s better off without me.I have this really strong feeling that Diana might be somehow involved in Phoebe’s sudden departure because the last t

Phoebe’s POV“Huh, I totally get what you were saying when you went to visit my parents. Christ, I’m literally one step away from hyperventilating” Blaze mutters with a grimace as he fixes the shirt collar of his midnight blue shirt in the mirror.I break in a fit of cackle behind him as he puts on his black blazer over his broad shoulders. My mouth waters as I stare at the mouth-watering specimen in front of me.He sends me a warning glare before saying, “Ciccino, don’t give me that look”I look at him innocently, something that Ava’s Persian white kitten does with her after breaking her dishes or pooping outside the litter box.“What look?” I blink my eyes in mock confusion and watch him narrow his eyes at me.He starts sauntering in my direction like a predator nearing his prey and raises my face by using two of his fingers underneath my ja
