I was behind the arts building, helping my group prep for a presentation, when mine came in—along with everyone else’s.

The moment the file name flashed across my screen, everything inside me stopped.

I didn’t open it right away.

I was tired of the drama—all of it. But something about this felt... different. Heavy. Like whatever was in it couldn’t be unseen.

And still... I opened it.

The moment I did, my pulse shifted.

Same setting. Noah’s apartment. Same camera angle.

But this time, the room wasn’t silent.

This time, we heard everything.

Ava’s voice hit first.

“I’m not playing with you, Noah. Leave the girl alone.”

She was pacing, chest heaving. Her heels hit the hardwood like a ticking clock.

Noah stood by the kitchen counter, arms folded. Cold.

“You don’t get to tell me who I talk to.”

Ava let out a dry, bitter laugh.

“Oh, come on. Don’t act brand new. You’re only hanging around her ’cause she’s shiny and different. You want a little taste of her and then you’ll toss her, just like

  • Chasing Midnight Promises    Chapter 89: The Calm That Wasn't

    Something about Ava’s silence was louder than all her chaos combined.No outbursts. No drama. No icy insults thrown across the hallways. She just… watched. Observed everything and said nothing. And that alone was enough to make people uncomfortable. Her silence wasn’t peace. It was a warning.Raven noticed it first.“It’s too quiet,” she whispered to me one afternoon as we sat outside the arts building. “She hasn’t posted on her socials in two days.”“Maybe she’s embarrassed,” I suggested, even though I didn’t believe it myself.Raven gave me a look. “Ava Greenwood doesn’t get embarrassed. She reloads.”And she was right.Ava didn’t cry in public or slam lockers shut. She didn’t scream at Noah or confront Raya in front of everyone. She simply vanished from the usual spotlight. But her absence only made her presence more threatening. People were watching her, waiting.Meanwhile, Raya continued to glow in her innocent orbit, still oblivious to the battlefield she was tiptoeing through.

    “That’s not possible,” I said, blinking in disbelief. “She once told an entire debate class that college boys were a waste of time and beneath her standards.”“Well,” Raven said, showing me a blurry picture on her phone, “looks like she changed her mind.”At first, I thought it was just Noah being Noah—setting another trap, making his next move.But then rumors started flying, fast and loud. People said they were official. As in, a real relationship. Dates. Matching designer sunglasses. His and hers watches. Social media posts, curated and filtered to perfection.Hashtags like #Navah and #PowerCouple began to trend among the student body.And for the first time, it seemed like Noah was truly off the market. No more girls sneaking out of class, or videos of Noah and random girls in Devil's Corner. No more flirting with anything that moved. He even started skipping parties.It was like watching fire and gasoline dance—and not explode.Ava was the only one who ever seemed to hold his att

  • Chasing Midnight Promises    Chapter 87: Reckless Flame

    And the girls Noah uses…They weren’t stupid. They weren’t helpless. They knew who he was, what he was. So why were they still all over him like he was the prize of the damn campus?Noah was magnetic, sure. With that sharp jaw, roguish smirk, and deep, whiskey-smooth voice that made even professors second glance him. But the more I saw, the more I understood. He wasn’t just playing games.He was the game.And somehow, I kept losing.Each new scene chipped at me. I kept telling myself it didn’t matter, that I was above it. But every time I caught him, something cracked a little deeper. Something more personal. Like he was shattering a part of me I didn’t even know was still fragile. Like his recklessness was reaching into my ribcage and shaking something loose.Until the name dropped.Ava Greenwood.The moment I heard it, something in the air shifted. Even Noah’s reckless flame had never burned quite that close to danger.And I had no idea yet just how bad it was going to get.Ava The

  • Chasing Midnight Promises    Chapter 86: Shadows in Broad Daylight

    The weeks that followed felt like the universe had conspired to make me a front-row witness to Noah’s every filthy escapade. It was as if catching him that day in the lecture hall unlocked something darker. The polished mask he once wore slipped, revealing a bolder, more untamed version of him. Suddenly, the shadows he used to hide in weren’t enough. Noah wasn’t just flirting anymore; he was flaunting. Like the rules never applied to him. Like boundaries were a game he loved to break.And somehow, everywhere I turned, he was there, unapologetically tangled in someone else. It wasn’t even subtle. If anything, it was theatrical, like each encounter was another act in his twisted show.First, it was the restroom behind the science block. I had ducked in to collect myself after a tense presentation, hoping the cold water would steady my nerves. My palms were clammy, my head buzzing from the adrenaline of speaking in front of fifty pairs of judgmental eyes. The air inside was sterile, wi

    I took a step back.Then paused.My eyes stayed locked on Raven’s, searching for the sister I used to trust with everything. The light felt dimmer now, shadows clinging to the corners like secrets waiting to surface. She stood there, arms crossed, breathing heavily, waiting for me to run again. But I didn’t. Not this time.I looked away first.Then I found my voice.“Raven,” I said quietly, “do you remember what happened a few years ago?”Her brows knit together. Her arms slowly dropped to her sides. Something flickered in her eyes—recognition, then guilt.She stayed quiet.My heart pounded loud enough to drown everything else. I stood still.“I’m asking you something. Can you still remember what happened years ago?”She shifted. Her lips parted, but no words came. Her gaze dropped to the floor, and for a moment, the silence between us stretched unbearably.“Mia, that’s not... that’s not what we’re talking about right now,” she said quickly. “Why are you bringing that up?”I said noth
