He gave me one small nod, then walked across the street and sat on the bench farthest from the fountain, the one half-hidden by a cluster of bare winter branches that still managed to offer a thin veil of privacy even without leaves.

He pulled out his phone, opened it, and kept his eyes on the screen, giving me the gift of not watching, not waiting for me to perform or prove anything, just letting me exist in the space.

I stood there for a long moment after he sat there, the paper bag from the

  • Daddies Taste Better    CHAPTER 217: I Promise You

    For a moment we just stared at each other, the air thick with everything we hadn’t said in the basement. I stood there in my hospital gown, bare feet on the cold tile, feeling small and exposed all over again, but I didn’t look away this time. “Thea,” he let out, voice rough and surprised, like he hadn’t expected me to come. “You… you shouldn’t be up yet. You look like hell.” A weak, bitter laugh slipped out of me before I could stop it. “Yeah, well, a couple of days in a basement will do that to a girl.” I took another step closer, my legs trembling but holding. “I just… I needed to see you. To say thank you.” Noah’s brow furrowed, confusion flashing across his bruised face. “For what?” I swallowed, the words feeling heavy on my tongue. “Gage said that you were the reason—” “You know that’s not why you’re here,” he cut in, voice low as he shifted against the pillows, wincing as he did, but his eyes never left mine. I sighed, the sound long and exhausted, and let the air leav

  • Daddies Taste Better    CHAPTER 216: Noah Was In There

    The next day the crushing weakness that was pinning me down was gone, replaced by a dull, manageable ache in my muscles and a quiet emptiness in my stomach that no longer felt like it was eating me alive. Someone — nurses, probably, while I slept — had hooked me up to another IV, and the steady drip of fluids had worked its magic. My throat also no longer burned like sandpaper and I could actually move my fingers without them trembling like they belonged to someone else. I turned my head slowly on the pillow and there he was. Gage. Still in the same chair, still holding my hand like he hadn’t moved an inch since I drifted off. His eyes were closed, dark circles heavy underneath them, but his thumb kept tracing those slow, soothing circles on the back of my hand even in his sleep. Then he stirred when I squeezed his hand, his eyes fluttering open. For a second he looked lost, but then his gaze found mine and the tension in his face melted into a familiar softness. “You’re awake

  • Daddies Taste Better    CHAPTER 215: Home

    THEA°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ I woke up to the soft beep of machines and the faint smell of antiseptic. My eyelids felt heavy, like they’d been glued shut for days, but I forced them open anyway. Every part of my hurt, my wrists were bandaged, my throat raw, my body weak and heavy like it belonged to someone else. But none of that mattered the second my eyes found him.He was right there beside the bed, sitting in a chair pulled so close his knees touched the mattress. His head was bowed, dark hair falling forward, and my hand was clasped between both of his in a prayer-like way. His lips stayed pressed against my knuckles like he was trying to breathe life back into me through that single point of contact. He looked exhausted with shadows under his eyes, jaw tight, with the same charcoal sweater he’d been wearing when he left me with Caroline now wrinkled and stained with something dark I didn’t want to think about.I don’t remember what happened. I don’t remember when I passed out. The last

  • Daddies Taste Better    CHAPTER 214: God, I Hate Him

    God, I hate him. He then straightened his shoulders, the mask sliding back into place like it had never cracked, and said in that same cold, measured tone that always made my blood boil, “Wear your clothes. You’re taking me to her.” “I said I don’t know where the fuck she is,” I snarled, stepping closer until I was right in his face, close enough to smell that fucking sandalwood cologne that still clung to Thea’s things like a brand. “You think I’m hiding her somewhere?” He didn’t move. Didn’t step back. Didn’t raise his voice again. He just looked at me, then exhaled, a long, controlled sigh through his nose—and said in that same infuriatingly calm tone, “Then call Caroline. I’ll have someone track the call. Thea is in trouble and I’d rather not have you make another mistake that you’re going to blame on me.” And with that he turned and walked out of the room, the door closing behind him with a click. I sank back onto the edge of the bed, head in my good hand, the pain in

  • Daddies Taste Better    CHAPTER 213: He Never Fucking Flinch

    A day earlier…NOAH-ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ-I woke up to the worst fucking headache of my life, the kind that starts behind your eyes and spreads like poison through every cracked bone and bruised muscle in your body, and the first thing I registered was the low, familiar creak of the leather chair in the corner of my bedroom being sat in by someone who had no right to be there. My hand was already wrapped around my cock—half-hard from some half-remembered dream about Thea that I immediately hated myself for—stroking slow and lazy out of pure habit because my body still thought it could fuck its way out of the mess my life had become. I jerked my hand away like I’d been burned, eyes snapping open, and the sight of my father sitting there in the dim morning light, legs crossed, looking every inch the calm, collected bastard who owned the fucking world and everyone in it, made the rage surge up so fast I almost puked right there on the sheets.“What the fuck are you doing here?!” I snarled, yanki

  • Daddies Taste Better    CHAPTER 212: I’m Sorry

    “Noah?” I rasped. “What are you talking about?” He turned his head toward me, his gaze sweeping over me again and his face twisted with fresh anger. He then lunged toward Reyes again, swinging wildly. “You piece of shit!” He snarled, throwing himself at Reyes like he couldn’t stand the sight of me like this for another second. But Reyes was ready this time. He sidestepped and slammed Noah back down to the ground with brutal force, pinning him there with a knee on his chest. Noah gasped in pain, struggling underneath him, but he couldn’t get free. Reyes held him down easily, breathing hard, blood still trickling from the cut above his eyebrow. I watched it all through my tears, my body shaking uncontrollably from the cold and the overwhelming wave of despair crashing over me. Noah had been in on this? At least part of it? The thought made me feel sick to my core. “I’m sorry,” Noah gasped out, still pinned, his voice rough and strained with pain. “Thea… I’m sorry.” He repea

    Mrs. Harlan paused.The room seemed to hold its breath with her.“Maybe,” she said finally after a while. “But it’s still only a maybe.”She let the word settle between us, simple and unadorned. No attempt to reassure or defend or explain him away.Just… acknowledgment. That doubt was allowed. T

The sheets needed washing.”She glanced at the machine, then back at me. “Those were changed two days ago.”“I know
