Dante's POV
when I had left Frederick's office my temper had only just been simmering
beneath the surface but with each mile that I drove back to the house my anger
had reached a boiling point.
not only was I in a constant stage of irritation on a normal day whenever I would
think about the predicament Phoebe and her family had tied me down to but
knowing just how scheming and the amount of lies that they had spoken in order
to guilt me into even giving into such a decision was enough to have me do some
things drastic given the gravity of my anger at present.
knowing what I knew now there was no way I was going to allow her to put me in
such a position of doubt that she could get me into doing what she wanted me to
do.
I cut the engine the moment my car had reached the paved area just below the
steps leading to the main entrance. I wasted no time in getting out of the car and
entering the house but I tried to be as sneaky and silent as possible. it was not
usual for me to return back home so soon once I had left in the morning so
Phoebe would not even be expecting my return leaving me in the perfect position
to catch up guard.
And, my god, did I catch you off guard.
her voice could be heard from the foyer and seem to grow louder as a moved in
the direction of the drawing room. at first I assumed that she had been speaking
to someone in person but as I need the arch of the drawing room I found that she
was alone. her back had been facing towards me and she had no idea of my
presence. she held her phone to her ear and toyed with her hair as she spoke in
a very soft and almost seductive tone.
she had already been all dressed up but that was not unusual for Phoebe since
she had always enjoyed making up her face and doing her hair and getting
dressed in the most lavish dresses.
“if you want we can meet at the usual spot. I'd invite you home but things are still
very unsettled at the moment and I do not want Dante suspecting anything
between us. “Pheobe spoke in to the phone with no caution or care,
I hid my self behind the wall when I suspected that she was about to turn and this
definitely sounded like a conversation that I wanted to be eavesdropping on.
“I know but if we are so much as spotted together then it would give him the
chance to suspect that this child is not his. Right now he believes that he was the
only man in my life and he does not want this child anyways. The last thing I want
to do is give him a chance to believe it.” She spoke so casually about it like this
was all a damn joke to her.
“It is our child but Dante doesn't need to know that, Demetri. You know how
delicate the situation is. It's just for a few months. Once he marries me then I will
file for divorce. It's all part of the plan sweetheart. You just have to be patient then
we can frolick freely to out hearts content.” Pheobe’s tone held a great amount of
glee and ambition to it but to me, she had just put all the puzzle pieces in to
place.
I knew all that I needed to know. What ever she had just said removed any room
for assumptions and made everything that Frederick discovered facts.

It was finally time to make myself know. I stepped out from behind the wall and
stood right in the arch. Pheobe saw me instantly and her face went as white a
sheet of paper almost like she had seen a ghost in broad day light.
“Surprised to see me?” I asked with no trace of lightness or humour to my words.
Nothing could be heard but red hot anger.
The phone from her hand quickly cut and fell to her side as she stared at me with
widen eyes that were the size of saucers.
“D- Dante,” She stuttered baffled at what to say hi it also trying to gage how much
of her conversation I had listened to. “Is isn’t like you to be home so early. Did
you forget some thing?” She tried to maintain a neutral tone but her face was
now flustered as she panicked.
“Cut the act, Pheobe. I know about every thing.” I warned her not in the mood for
her to try and cover this up to suit her better.
“I have no idea what you are talking about.” Her eyes darted to her phone that lay
on the floor. “Oh, that, I was just talking to my mother. She lied which only made
me more annoyed about it all.
“Funny since I can’t recall when your mother changed her name to Demitri.” I
pointed out and she swallowed audibly as her nerves shot up around her.
I stepped further in to the room and saw her get uncomfortable but I didn’t care.
From here on out, I couldn't give two shits what happens to her.
“I always knew that the child you carry has never been mine. I am never so drunk
to not recall events and I wondered why I could never remember that night you
speak of and that was because nothing happened. You put me to bed and I
passed out. We never had S*x that night as you so claimed but-" I grinned at her
but nothing to be friendly just enough for her to get intimidated and she did.
“You did meet Demetri on the same day where you guys shared a long time a
motel together. Tell me, Phoebe, was it before or after this did you scheme to trap
in a marriage for a child that wasn't mine just so you could divorce me and take
half of what I owned leaving you a rather wealthy woman but, too bad, your plans
will never come to fruition.” I mocked her holding on to that because so god help
me if I gave in to my anger.
“You- you have got this all wrong. I promise you.” She began pleasing but she
could cry blood for all I cared.
“Please, do not think I am stupid enough to be fooled again by you. I know your
true colours and nothing will change my mind now. You and your scheming family
can go to hell.” I snapped at her, my voice loud enough even for my own ears.
Phoebe jumped back a little and I waited for her to speak but she was too
stunned, too shocked that her grand plan came crushing right before her very
eyes,
“I want you to pack your things and get the fuck out of my life for good!” I yelled
at her but that only triggered her own bitterness.
I saw it bleed in to her eyes and watches as she squared her shoulders ready to
fight.

“Get out of my house before the day ends or I will throw you out myself.” I
warned her before turning around and leaving the house entirely.
I couldn't stand being in the same space as her without thinking of harming her
