A Hot Daddy For Christmas Chapter 149
Ariana didn’t move right away after the message.Okay.That was all Cami had sent.No time. No place. No explanation.Just enough to reopen something that had barely started to settle.She stared at her phone for a few seconds longer, then locked it and leaned back in her chair, exhaling slowly.This was different from before.Before, everything between them had been reactive. Emotional. Sharp.Now—this felt intentional.And somehow, that made her more nervous.—An hour later, Ariana stepped out of the car and immediately spotted her.Cami was sitting on a low concrete wall near the park, one leg bent, the other stretched slightly forward, her phone resting loosely in her hand.She wasn’t scrolling.Just holding it.Waiting.Ariana hesitated for half a second before walking toward her.Cami looked up as she approached.Their eyes met.No smiles.But no hostility either.“Hey,” Ariana said.Cami gave a small nod.“Hi.”Ariana stopped a few feet in front of her.“Can I sit?”Cami shif

Ariana woke up before the sun fully came in.For a moment, she didn’t open her eyes. She just stayed there, aware of the warmth beside her, the steady rhythm of Mateo’s breathing, the way his arm rested loosely around her like it had always belonged there.It felt… calm.Not the kind of calm that came from things being easy.The kind that came after something hard had already been faced.She shifted slightly, turning toward him, her hand resting lightly against his chest.He stirred under her touch, eyes opening slowly.“You’re awake,” he murmured.Ariana smiled faintly.“Yeah.”He looked at her for a second, like he was taking in the fact that she was still there, that nothing had changed overnight.“How do you feel?” he asked.She exhaled softly.“Lighter,” she admitted.A pause.“But not… finished.”Mateo nodded slightly.“That makes sense.”Ariana traced small, absent patterns against his shirt.“She didn’t forgive me,” she said.“I didn’t expect her to.”“I know,” Ariana replied.

Ariana didn’t go back to Mateo’s place right away.She walked.No direction, no plan, just letting her body move while everything inside her tried to settle into something she could actually understand.The conversation kept replaying in her head.Not the sharp parts.Those had been expected.It was the quieter moments that stayed.I don’t want you completely gone.That one lingered.Because it wasn’t forgiveness.But it wasn’t rejection either.It was something in between.And that space—felt fragile.Her phone buzzed in her hand.Mateo.She stared at his name for a second before answering.“Hey.”“Are you done?” he asked.His voice was steady, but there was something under it.Not tension.Attention.“Yeah.”A small pause.“Where are you?”“Walking.”“Alone?”Ariana let out a quiet breath.“Yes.”Another pause.“I’ll come get you.”“You don’t have to.”“I know.”That was his way of saying he was already going to.Ariana didn’t argue.She stopped walking a few minutes later, leaning

They stayed longer than either of them expected.Not because it got easier.But because neither of them walked away.Cami traced the rim of her cup again, quieter now, like the sharpest part of what she needed to say had already come out.Ariana didn’t rush her.Didn’t try to fill the silence this time.She just stayed.“That’s new,” Cami said suddenly.Ariana looked up.“What is?”“You not trying to fix the silence.”Ariana let out a small breath.“I think I’ve done enough damage trying to control things.”Cami studied her for a second.Then looked away again.“Yeah,” she said. “You have.”It wasn’t said to hurt her.Just to keep things honest.Ariana nodded slightly, accepting it.Another pause settled between them, softer now.Not as sharp.Cami leaned back in her chair, her gaze drifting toward the window again.“Did you ever think about how this would affect me?” she asked.Ariana d

For a moment, neither of them spoke.The noise of the café filled the space between them, but it didn’t touch what was sitting at the table.Cami looked down at her hands, then back up at Ariana.“You know what the worst part is?” she asked.Ariana didn’t answer.She knew this wasn’t a question that needed one.Cami’s fingers tightened slightly around her cup.“It’s not even that you’re with him.”A pause.“It’s that you let me be around you while it was happening.”That landed differently.Sharper.More personal.Ariana felt her chest tighten.“I didn’t plan it,” she said quietly.Cami let out a short laugh.“That doesn’t make it better.”“I know.”“No, I don’t think you do,” Cami replied, her voice still controlled but heavier now. “Because you weren’t the one sitting there, talking to someone, trusting them, while they were hiding something like that from you.”Ariana’s gaze dropped for a second.Not avoiding.Just… taking it in.“I would’ve told you,” she said.Cami shook her head

Cami didn’t overthink it this time.That was new.Usually, she would’ve waited. Let the feeling settle, sharpen, turn into something precise before acting on it.But she was tired of being the one who adjusted after everything had already happened.So she picked up her phone and called.Ariana answered almost immediately.“Cami?”There was something in her voice—surprise, relief, tension all mixed together.“We’re not doing this over text,” Cami said.Direct. No buildup.A small pause on the other end.“Okay,” Ariana replied. “Where?”Cami glanced around her room like the answer might be there.“Tomorrow. Lunch. That café near the park.”“I know it.”Another pause.“Cami—”But she cut her off.“Don’t say anything now.”Her tone wasn’t harsh.Just controlled.“I’d rather you say it to my face.”A beat.“…okay,” Ariana said quietly.The line went dead.Cami lowered her phone slowly.Her heart was beating faster now.Not from nerves.From anticipation.Because this time—she wasn’t going

Ariana tried to breathe. The monitors hummed, the sterile smell of disinfectant filled the air, and yet all she could feel was Mateo’s presence lingering in her skin, in the curve of her neck, in the tightening of her chest. She reminded herself: Professional. Keep it professional.She was restocki

Ariana stood her ground, her arms crossed, watching Mateo as he poured himself a drink. The intensity of their earlier argument still hung in the air, thick and suffocating."You’re really doing this, then," Mateo said, turning to look at her. He didn't use a title or a command; his voice was just

The alarm clock on the nightstand didn't just wake Ariana; it felt like a summons. She lay still for a moment, staring up at the ceiling of her own bedroom. The familiar cracks in the plaster and the soft morning light hitting her curtains should have brought her peace, but instead, her chest felt

The final days of December had bled into one another in a haze of velvet and iron. Ariana had spent the week following the office incident in a state of hyper-awareness. She was quickly becoming accustomed to the duality of her existence: during the day, she was the sharp-tongued, fashionable Arian
