Chasing Midnight Promises Chapter 63: Silly Scenarios
Raven watched her quietly.“There’s nothing wrong with being in love with Christian,” she said softly.Mia’s jaw clenched.“We’re not kids anymore. You’re allowed to feel. And honestly? You need a man in your life before your private area seals shut permanently.”Mia blinked, caught between offense and laughter.Raven leaned in, her voice gentle but firm. “We’re best friends, Mia. No secrets.”She paused.“Just tell me the truth…”Mia’s breath hitched, but she said nothing.“Are you in love with Christian?”Mia looked stunned, completely caught off guard by the question. For a few seconds, she didn’t move. Her lips parted slightly, but nothing came out. Raven’s eyes bore into her, waiting. The room felt heavier now, the silence stretched thin between them.Then suddenly—“No!” Mia blurted, a bit too loudly. “Of course not! Come on, Raven.”She gave a shaky laugh, shaking her head as if trying to brush the idea away. “I don’t love him. If I did, trust me—you’d be the first to know.”Ra
Chasing Midnight Promises Chapter 62: Are You in Love With Him?
Mia lay flat on her back, her arms spread out across the bed, staring at the ceiling. Right beneath her, Christian lay in the exact same position in his room. The silence in the house was thick, but inside her head, thoughts refused to rest.She had sworn she’d keep things professional. That was the rule. That was the boundary. But a few minutes ago?They almost kissed.Again.Her palms slid up to cover her face as she drew in a breath through her fingers. Her heart hadn’t calmed since the moment he brushed that strand of hair from her face. The way he looked at her… it wasn’t just a look. The air between them had shifted—undeniably charged. She had felt it. He had too.“Are you in love with Christian?” she whispered.Her voice was small, unsure.She took a slow, deliberate breath. “No.”But the silence didn’t accept that answer. The question lingered, echoing back at her.She frowned and repeated, a little firmer, “No.”Still, the thoughts came.If she wasn’t in love with him, why di
Chasing Midnight Promises Chapter 61: Just Admit It!
Raven stood at the top of the stairs, one brow raised. She leaned slightly against the bannister, a storm brewing behind her eyes.Christian ran a hand down his face, flustered.Then, like nothing had happened, he pointed at Mia. “Strangers aren’t allowed here!”His eyes locked with Raven’s.“That includes you too!”Without waiting for a reaction, he stormed out of the living room and headed for his room.The door slammed shut behind him.And silence returned—charged, heavy, and thick with what had almost been.Christian stormed down the hallway, past the kitchen and the quiet hum of the fridge, until he reached his room. He didn’t bother turning on the light. He just walked in and shut the world out.His room was just how he left it—still dark, save for the sliver of light coming from the half-drawn curtain. It was simple, neat, and smelled faintly of cologne and fresh laundry. A bookshelf stood tall by the corner, his laundry basket leaning carelessly beside it. His bed was perfectl
Chasing Midnight Promises Chapter 60: A Breath Apart
Christian slouched on the couch, eyes locked on the ceiling. Each tick of the wall clock hammered louder, the silence pressing down like a weight. He hadn't moved since walking through the front door.Noah Bradford.The name alone made his jaw tighten.Christian sat up slowly, resting his elbows on his knees. He raked his hands through his hair, fingers tugging at the roots as if trying to pull the tension out.This wasn’t just some petty grudge. It was deeper. Messier.He couldn’t take it anymore. The silence, the pacing thoughts—it was all too loud. He needed answers.He pushed off the couch and took the stairs two at a time. The hallway upstairs felt longer than usual, dimly lit by a single wall sconce that cast long shadows on the floor. He paused in the middle, right between two familiar doors—Mia’s on the left, Raven’s on the right.He stood there, heart pounding.What exactly was he going to say?How do you ask someone to tell their brother to stay away from the girl you’ve bar
Chasing Midnight Promises Chapter 59: Let The Game Begin
Christian’s eyes locked onto Noah’s with a force that made the air between them tighten. There was no smile. No twitch. Just cold, unflinching silence. His piercing gaze was the kind that stripped a man to his core.Noah straightened, caught off guard.“Do I know you?” he asked, brows furrowing. “Have we met before?”Christian stepped closer, the weight of his presence unsettling. “Time will tell,” he said, voice low but firm.Noah opened his mouth to respond, but Christian was already turning away.A few steps forward, Christian paused, glanced over his shoulder, and said loudly enough for the nearby drivers to hear, “Apologies for missing the light.”And just like that, he got into his car and drove off without another glance.Noah stood still, confused, jaw tightening. The man had gone from remorseful to ice-cold in seconds. There was something about him that stirred a quiet threat Noah couldn’t shake—like danger wearing a calm face.He raked a hand through his hair, his mind spinn
Chasing Midnight Promises Chapter 58: Twisted Encounter
Days turned into weeks, and weeks slipped by until two full months had passed. School had taken on a rhythm of its own—morning lectures, group discussions, assignments, and quiet evenings. Mia’s friendship with Eleanor had deepened. Among her peers, Eleanor was the closest. They worked on assignments together, shared quiet lunches, and occasionally hung out after lectures.Yet somehow, Christian had never crossed paths with this Eleanor. Despite Mia mentioning her constantly, and even Raven casually bringing her up, Christian had never once seen the mysterious woman. It bothered him. No one else had ever met her, and she had no digital footprint—nothing on the university’s portal, no social media presence, not even a registration photo. Eleanor Hart had become a ghost he couldn’t catch.Meanwhile, Raven had been doing well. She’d moved on from the heartbreak of her past and was now focused on her future. She resumed school a day after Mia and was slowly finding her footing again. The
