The hospital smelled heavy with cleaning liquid and the atmosphere seemed to feel like quiet fear

Aria didn't like any of that. In fact, she hated hospitals.

The lights were too bright also. The floors were too shiny and the light bounced off them easily.

Every sound felt too loud … footsteps, coughing, doors opening and closing.

Cole had been in surgery for hours now.

No one really talked.

Mila sat in one of the hard plastic chairs, her hands resting on her stomach. She stared at the wall like she was afraid to blink. Afraid that if she looked away, something bad would happen.

Aria sat beside her.

She didn't know what to do with her hands. Or her legs. Or her heart.

Everything inside her felt loose. Like it might fall apart if she moved the wrong way.

Damian stood a few steps away. He leaned against the wall, arms crossed, jaw tight. He hadn't sat down since he arrived. Not once.

He looked angry.

Not loud angry.

Quiet angry.

The kind that stays trapped inside the chest and burns.

  • Brewed For You    Chapter 67

    Aria woke up with a jolt. She didn't realise she had fallen asleep at point. The entire Cafe was silent. Pin drop silent. Sweet Haven had never been that silent before.It was not the peaceful kind either. More like the wrong kind. The kind that presses against your ears until your body realizes something is missing.The silence so loud it was deafening...the kind to make those tiny hairs on your skin stand erect.Even before opening hours, there was always something: the hum of the fridge, Mila’s footsteps upstairs, the faint clatter of cups being rearranged out of habit.Now she was greeted with...nothing.She was fully awake now.Her phone was vibrating on the nightstand.Once.Twice.Three times.She grabbed it, heart already racing.Mila.She answered immediately. “What’s wrong?”For a second, all she heard was breathing. Ragged. Shallow.“Mila?” Aria sat up. “Talk to me.”“They were here,” Mila whispered.Cold washed through her veins.“Who?” Aria asked, even though she already

    The first thing Damian did was disappear.Not in the physical sense of it...he was still right there beside her, still nodding at Mila and murmuring something about “handling it.” But something in him had shifted. Withdrawn. Focused. Like a door had closed somewhere behind his eyes.Aria noticed it because she always did.She’d learned, the hard way, to track the moment men stopped talking with her and started thinking around her.Damian moved through the space like he was already several steps ahead, issuing quiet instructions, taking calls just out of earshot, scanning the room as if every object could be weaponized.She hated how competent he looked.It made it harder to tell him to stop.“I’m coming with you,” she said as he reached for his coat.He paused.“No,” he replied in an instant.Her jaw tightened. “That wasn’t a suggestion. I wasn't asking.”“It wasn’t an opening for debate either,” he said, still calm. Too calm.She stepped closer, lowering her voice. “You said no more

    Consequences don't always come all at once.They almost never did.They arrived quietly, disguised as coincidence, wrapped in polite language and official formatting...things Aria had learned to distrust long ago.Damian had shown her to her room shortly after the whole Ethan fiasco. The atmosphere had become so static that they all became mentally exhausted and decided to call it a nightAfter tossing and turning, trying to find a comfortable spot and failing, she fell into a dreamless slumber. When morning came, she woke with a headache she couldn’t shake.Not the sharp kind. The heavy kind. Like her thoughts were moving through syrup. Damian had already been up when she surfaced from sleep, she peeped into his room and his bed was already made, the apartment too still. For a moment, panic flared in her chest before she heard movement from the kitchen.Coffee.The smell grounded her.She pushed herself upright slowly, replaying the night before in fragments, the burner phone, Ethan’

  • Brewed For You    Chapter 64

    Aria didn’t touch the phone for a long time.It sat on the kitchen counter between her and Damian, screen dark now, innocent-looking. Just a rectangle of plastic and glass. Nothing about it hinted at the weight it carried, or the way it had shifted the air in the room the moment it arrived.Choice.That single word echoed in her head like a dare.Damian leaned against the opposite counter, arms crossed, posture tense but controlled. He hadn’t tried to take the phone away. That alone told her everything she needed to know...this wasn’t something he could solve for her. She had to fight this herself.“You don’t have to let it get to you,” he said quietly.“I know. I won't.”Her voice sounded steadier than she felt.“But do you think I should send a reply?”“I think he wants you to,” Damian replied. “Which means whatever he says is designed to get inside your head.”Aria picked up the phone at last. It was warm, like it had already been waiting for her.“I’ve lived with his voice in my h

  • Brewed For You    Chapter 63

    The one thing that had become apparent to Aria was the frequency at which she's been embracing silence. It seems to follow her everywhere recently.Sometimes it's peaceful. But this time, it wasn't the peaceful kind...it was the kind that presses in on you, makes your thoughts too loud. The kind that weighs down heavy on you making it hard to breath.Damian’s car cut through the city streets smoothly, efficiently, but neither of them spoke. The space between them felt charged, like a held breath stretched too long.She watched the buildings blur past the window, her reflection faint in the glass. She looked the same but felt entirely different.“You didn’t ask where we’re going,” Damian said finally, breaking the silence streak.She turned her head slightly. “Does it matter?”“Yes.”She considered that. “Alright then, tell me.”“My place,” he said. “For now.”“For now,” she repeated. "Why your place though?"“It’s safer than Richard’s,” he replied. “And less predictable.”Her mouth cu

  • Brewed For You    Chapter 62

    You know that feeling where it feels like you are being watched? That was the feeling Aria woke up with. She stood up with a jolt, breaking out in a cold sweat. The tiny hairs on her back syood erect , her eyes wide as she took in the scenery in her room.The room was dim, the curtains drawn just enough to let in a thin line of early morning light. It cut across the polished floor like a blade. For a moment, she stayed still, listening. The house was too quiet. Not the peaceful kind, no birds, no distant city noise. Just the low hum of controlled air and the faint echo of space.There was no doubt that Mr Richard's house was immaculate. From the historical exterior designs to the contrasting modern interior designs.But right now, it felt strategic.Like every little detail, every miniscule decoration, was deliberate.She pushed herself upright slowly, her body stiff from a night of shallow, fractured sleep. The events of the previous day came rushing back in sharp fragments...Cole’s
