Okay so, if you're from the first book - Forbidden Desires - hello again.

If you're not, it's okay. You can read this book without reading the previous one. However, I would suggest that you go back and read that one first. The characters in that book will be referenced and involved in this one.

However, this book will focus solely on Liam and Phoebe.

So, please vote and comment your thoughts and opinions. This is just a quick prologue of the two meeting and their first impression. It will be Third Person POV this prologue. Enjoy :)

Third Person POV

"Nervous?", Liam sends Brett a side-long glance, his heart beating against hard against his chest. He could heart his own heartbeat echoing in his ears. "Nervous is a fucking understatement.", he muttered, straightening out his suit.

Brett shoved his hands into his suit pants pockets, smirking to himself. "You'll be fine, kid.", He chuckled, glancing to his side to see Liam an absolute nervous-wreck. "Don't give my sister more of a reason to bully you.", He suggested, calmly.

Liam nodded, straightening. He stood tall, pushing his own hands into his suit pants pockets.

"What does she look like?", Liam asked into the silence.

They were stood outside of the coffee shop which she'd said she was currently sitting in. Brett nodded towards the coffee shop, as if pointing someone out. Liam followed his gaze, and it landed on the most stunning woman he'd ever laid eyes on.

"Like that.", Brett muttered, opening his arms for his sister as she made her way towards the two men.

Liam straightened unconsciously. His hands pushed further into his pants pockets, and he held his head high. First impressions were important to him, especially when the woman he was trying to impress, looked like she did.

Her brunette hair was cut short, just above her shoulders - her ocean blue eyes looked just like Brett's did, but hers were accompanied with long, thick lashes and some shadowy eyeshadow. Her lips were painted red, which matched the loose dress she was wearing.

Her body was slim, but curved in all of the right places.

Liam couldn't stop his gaze from looking over her, inspecting every inch of her body that was on show for the eye to see. And then, after Phoebe hugged her brother, and stood back. His gaze snapped up to her face. He half-smiled, half-smirked.

"I like your dress.", Is what he says.

Phoebe cocks a brow at him, her own eyes inspecting him now. Liam watches her eyes as they take in his attire and his frame. He wasn't as muscular as Brett, he was a little slimmer. He stood still and quiet, allowing her to check him out. His smirk growing more.

Brett glanced between his sister and Liam, and gawked at the look on Liam's face.

"Phoebe, this is Liam.", Brett interrupted whatever inspection was taking place. "Liam, this is my sister Phoebe.", Brett added, gesturing between the two of them.

Phoebe nodded, but said nothing.

Liam said nothing either, they simply stared at one another. Liam half-smirking, and Phoebe's face void of any emotion - she was good at keeping her feelings and her thoughts to herself, she'd mastered it as a teenager, and perfected it as a woman years ago.

"Liam will be accompanying you for two months.", Brett told her.

Phoebe glanced to her brother, and then returned her gaze back to Liam. "Accompanying?", She scoffed. Brett glanced down at her tone, knowing she was pissed. She didn't want this. She didn't want someone with her constantly.

Phoebe enjoyed her own company, and hated being around anyone, especially men.

As powerful as a man can come, Brett was, but still in close proximity with his sister, he made sure to choose his words carefully. Just as he had advised Liam to do, too.

"You do know that I don't want you here, right?", Phoebe spoke out, her voice laced with authority and a hidden rage. Liam kept his game face on, but his smirk slowly faded away. He glanced at Brett, and then back down at the stunning little creature with a hell of a mouth on her.

"You're making that pretty obvious, yeah.", Liam forced a smile on his lips. Phoebe scowled at his sarcasm, and then shot her brother a look.

Brett waited for whatever it was that she was going to say.

"Is there anything else you'd like to curse me with?", Phoebe demanded. Liam almost scoffed at that, but remained silent. His eyes watching her carefully, and so closely. He was attempting to read her body language, or her expressions - but she was so fucking good at hiding everything.

Brett shook his head. "This will be all.", He gestured to Liam. He then patted him on the back, leaned across whilst gripping his shoulder. "Good luck.", And then he leaned down, pressing a kiss to his sisters cheek and left.

Liam's gaze followed Brett for a short moment, before he forced himself to look back down at the little madam before him. "Where now, ma'am?", He smirked, knowing that his entire being was annoying the fuck out of her.

He shouldn't have found pleasure and humour in that, but he did.

Phoebe glared up at him, silently. She huffed, gripped onto the strap of her bag and stormed passed him. Liam nodded with a sigh.

"Okay then.", he muttered, turning on his heel to follow her into the busy crowd.

This was going to be an interesting two months.
