Ivy’s POV

I have been in this storage room since morning, making sure that the log books and their so-called labelled containers are properly arranged. “I’m too attracted to that so-called uncle of mine to even say I hate him behind his back”, I muttered and picked up my phone on the table to check the time. “Oh my God”, I screamed when I saw that the time was already a few minutes past seven. I dropped the phone immediately and started arranging the containers and the log books on the shelf.

  • Stranded: My Step Uncle’s Secret Obsession   Chapter ten

    Matthias’s POV “Why will you enter my room like that? It’s not done”, Ivy snapped at me the moment she opened her eyes and I shifted slightly from where I stood. I know that Ivy has been trying so hard to get my attention ever since she arrived at this island and technically, this should make her happy and not have her snap at me. “I just asked you a question Mat… why are you here?”, she snapped again and that made me snap out of my thoughts. “Focus Mat”, I thought and cleared my throat before moving closer. “I….. I came….. I actually came here to talk to you”, I stuttered as I replied to her, watching her cover herself with the duvet before she moved to the closet to put on a nightmare. I turned my back at her immediately and I could still feel the rush of heat brushing through me even when I can’t see her but I just have the knowledge that I am in the same space with her. “What do you want to talk about?”, I heard her talk after about two minutes which means she is done with whate

    Ivy’s POV "I need your help”, I said immediately the call connected after the third ring. “Why are you calling me at this time of the night?” a thick and distorted voice said at the other end of the call making it obvious that he was sleeping by the time he picked the call. I decided to call Caleb and talk to him about how I am feeling because he is still the only one that seems to understand me on this island. “I have something important to discuss with you”, I said hurriedly as I walked toward the door that leads to my room. “Ivy”, he called like he just realized I am the one he has been on the phone with. “How did you get my number?”, he asked, his voice was louder now and I assumed that the sleep must have cleared off his face now. “That doesn’t matter now”, I muttered as I opened the door to my room slowly and put on the switch to bring the light on. “It does Ivy. You can’t just call me like that…. I don’t want issues”, he said. “You know what I am talking about”, he added slo

I dropped the phone immediately and started arranging the containers and the log books on the shelf. At exactly seven thirty, I carried my bags to leave even though there were still a series of files and labelled containers scattered all over the place but I was too tired to fix it. “I’ll fix the rest tomorrow”, I muttered and yawned lazily and walked towards the door. I halted when I suddenly heard footsteps moving towards the storage room and I suspected that it belonged to Matthais. I have had a crush on him for so long that I studied and took note of everything about him. A wide smile tou

    Matthias’s POV Banggg! Bangggg!The cup made a loud noise as it hit the marbled floor and the warm coffee wasted away. The loud sound of the coffee still didn’t make me jerk back to my senses— instead, my gaze was fixed tightly on the doorway. The shift in the room was immediate and undeniable like something in the room had just shifted. Ivy was standing in the doorway like she knew what she was doing at the moment. Of course she did. She was putting on extremely short skirts and a crop top that exposed her navel. She let her hair down and the long hair that is still slightly damp fell freely on her waist. The top and the skirt she wore clung to her body just enough to reveal her perfect and beautiful shape. She finally moved away from the doorway and I jerked back. My gaze shifted from her in embarrassment and I realized I have been staring for two long minutes. It was now everyone’s turn in the lab to stare at me. “Sorry”, I muttered as I moved away from my spot to get the floor

  • Stranded: My Step Uncle’s Secret Obsession   Chapter six

    Matthias’s POV It was around 8pm at night that particular day and I was alone in the lab because I still had a lot of work to complete before I could call it a day from my own end. After two long hours of work and work, I was finally done with what I had to do for the day. I stood up from the chair I was sitting on and packed my things ready to leave the lab and spend the rest of the night in my room and on my bed. “Hmmmm”, I moaned dramatically at the thought of that. On my way out of the lab, I sighted the door to the storage room where Ivy had worked earlier and as much as I wanted to ignore it, I couldn’t resist the urge to go in and check what she had done. I opened the door to the storage room slowly and it was empty. “Thanks goodness”, I muttered as I entered the room fully. The logbooks and the label containers were placed neatly on the shelves and table when I entered. “She must have done that. Impressive”, I muttered that I could hardly hear myself. I checked the dates on

  • Stranded: My Step Uncle’s Secret Obsession   Chapter five

    Ivy’s POV Even after Matthias left the room, I didn’t leave my spot for about two minutes, still replaying the scene in my head over and over again. The way he stopped on his tracks and the way his eyes hovered over my body for five long minutes. He might not approve of it, but I know that scene made him feel something deep. I moved to the closet in the room— I had already arranged my clothes there the day before— and I picked a simple denim skirt and shorts for the day. I walked out of the room after getting dressed and found my way to the lab immediately. The lab went quiet the moment I walked in. It wasn’t really obvious and dramatic, just a subtle shift. The conversations going on didn’t stop but they dipped, like someone lowered the volume on the room the moment I walked through the door. Sofia glanced up from her station with a neutral and sharp expression and Caleb gave me a quick and amusing smile like whatever was about to happen in the lab this morning was about to be en
