Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 405: ‘For The Best’
SARAPHINA °❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･I watched her for a second longer, the leftover food cooling on the table beside me, and wondered what — or who — had put that look on her face.Then our eyes met.Riley’s expression shifted the moment she realized I was looking. She offered a quick, thin smile that didn’t reach her eyes at all, then pushed off the pillar and walked back toward the side entrance without lingering. The set of her shoulders stayed tight the whole way.She really did look paranoid.I sat there a moment longer, still watching the empty space where she’d been, before finally turning back to the plate in front of me. Whatever was going on with her, it wasn’t something I could figure out from a window. I picked up my fork again and kept eating, though the quiet unease settled a little deeper in my chest.When I finished, I slipped downstairs to the kitchen, where even the soft clink of my plate in the sink cut right through the quiet house. I rinsed everything quickly and left it in the

By the time I stopped speaking, my lungs felt squeezed tight and my face was on fire. James watched me in stunned silence. His eyebrows pulled together, studying the mess I'd just made as he tried to piece together what had triggered me.Then he exhaled."I don't know what you're talking about," he said, his voice still quiet, and entirely too calm for how fast my heart was racing. "There hasn't been a single moment where I thought of you as a liability."I pulled back, searching his eyes for any sign of a lie. "What about the cabin?""Not even at the cabin," he answered without hesitation.That actually took me aback that I couldn’t find my words."And second of all," he continued, leaning in just enough that I couldn't look away, "this has nothing to do with Celeste. If I’ve been bringing her up too much lately… then I apologize.”Only then did my brain finally catch up, and my whole face went up in flames.Oh my God.How completely childish and ridiculous must I have sounded? Sta
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 403: There’s Someone—
I shook my head, my fingers tightening around the rim as I readjusted the basket on my hip.“Don't worry about it,” I muttered, staring down at the pile of linen. “It’s not like I’m doing any real work anyway. My whole role here is literally just to sort it, fold it, and deliver it. It’s nothing.”Lia studied me for a second longer, then nodded.“Okay.”And with a brief, practiced smile, she backed off, leaving me alone with my pile of clean linens. I stood there swallowing down the truth, suffocating under the quiet weight of everything I was too proud to put into words.Then I turned and headed back inside.An hour later, I was still caught in the dull routine of sorting and folding when I stepped outside with a fresh basket. That’s when I saw them.James was standing near the edge of the rose garden, speaking with Noah. Noah looked like he had just finished a stretch of work with dirt on his hands, a few stray leaves stuck to his shirt, and was resting against the low stone border
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 402: Straight To Celeste
And it was that exact thought that pushed me to make a move yesterday. I decided it was time to start going to my classes again.It was a practical decision, or at least that’s what I told myself. Good thing I hadn’t missed much. A few lectures at most which I could catch up on with some readings. I think being on campus, sitting in a room full of people who didn’t know anything about cabins or bounties or men with guns, might make me feel less like a ghost drifting through someone else’s house. At the very least, it would make me feel less lonely. Because that had to be the only fucking reason I kept noticing James the way I did.It was the only reason I cared about how his face changed around Celeste. The only reason the silence between us suddenly felt more than it should.Yeah, he was hot. Objectively. Tall, broad, that reserved way of moving that made everything around him feel significantly smaller. He’s handsome, have an annoyingly smooth voice, but that doesn’t matter beca
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 401: Maybe That’s Actually What I Needed
RILEY°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･Why the fuck did I say that?I slammed my forehead against the stone pillar of the porch and squeezed my eyes shut, but the question kept spinning in my head, a toxic loop I couldn't break. Fuck!I’d sounded so blatantly, pathetically jealous it made my stomach churn. It wasn’t entirely my fault; the words had ripped out of my throat before I even had a chance to bite my tongue. But that look James gave me in the aftermath stayed burned behind my eyelids. A hot, prickling wave of shame flooded my cheeks, sinking down my neck and I squeezed my eyes shut and gritted my teeth against the heat.It wasn’t jealousy.At least that’s what I kept telling myself.If it was anything, it was envy.Bringing us to Madame Celeste’s house after the hotel mess was supposed to keep us alive, but watching the two of them together was its own kind of slow death. It was the way he positioned himself near her in a protective, but gentle way. It was the tiny, devastating shifts in his featu
Daddies Taste Better CHAPTER 400: Oh God
Noah let out a low, breathy scoff, his lips twitching into a lopsided smile as he started strolling toward me. “You’re calling That a kiss?” he asked, taking an extra step forward. “That was barely a fucking glaze—a polite little brush of the lips at best.” He kept closing the space between us. “A real kiss leaves a mark,” he went on. “You take your fucking time with it. You lean into it, put your whole body into it, and make sure they feel every single second burning right down to their chest.” I swellowed. “You put some real fucking weight into it until they can't even remember how to breathe and you don't let up until every inch of them is trembling.” By the time the last word left his mouth, he was towering right over me. I had to tip my head back just to keep my eyes on him. I was so hyper-aware of him and the absolute lack of space between us, that my heart was practically thumping in my throat. “Want me to give you a quick lesson on how it's done?” he whispered. Oh God.
