Gage made it in twenty-six minutes.

I know because I watched the clock on the stove the entire time.

He came through the door still in his coat with his keys in his fist and his face gray, and he went right past me and straight up the stairs, and I heard him in her room, heard the wardrobe, the drawers, the window. When he came back down he stood at the bottom step with one hand on the post and looked at me, and I could see him deciding something.

"I'm calling Riley," he said.

"Okay."

"Right

  • Daddies Know How She Tastes Better    CHAPTER 263: Touché

    SARAPHINA °❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･I was given a room in one of the smaller houses that night, someone's idea of hospitality that felt more like a formality than anything warm, but I was too drained to care about the particulars. I barely remembered falling asleep. I just remembered waking up the next morning to unfamiliar sheets and sunlight slanting through a window that didn't belong to me, and for a second I forgot where I even was.Then it all came rushing back. Nobody had to tell me outright what this place actually was. I'd put enough pieces together on my own, the armed men stationed like furniture, the way everyone deferred to James without question. I didn't need a formal explanation to understand I'd stumbled into something far bigger than a recovering situationship and a private hospital room.I got dressed in yesterday's clothes, since nobody had thought to bring me anything else, and made my way back toward the main house, retracing the path from the night before as best I could rem

  • Daddies Know How She Tastes Better    CHAPTER 462: I’m Worried

    I pressed my forehead against his chest."I'm worried," I mumbled into his shirt, and it came out muffled by the wool of his coat, which still smelled like cold air and the inside of his car. "I know she sounded fine, I know she said all the right things, but she's just twenty and she's sitting across from the last damn person on this planet who should be anywhere near her.""I know," he said, and his hand moved slowly up and down my back. "I'm worried too, Love, I promise you I am. I'm sorry that I didn't show it on the phone, but I think if I had, she would have heard it and hung up, and then we wouldn't have had even that much." He let out a breath that shook a little on the way out. "And I'm sorry about something else, because I know how this is going to sound, but I'm relieved. Knowing Noah is okay is the first thing in days that's let me breathe all the way down."I pulled back far enough to look at him. There was something in his face, something like uilt, the look of a man ap

    Gage made it in twenty-six minutes. I know because I watched the clock on the stove the entire time. He came through the door still in his coat with his keys in his fist and his face gray, and he went right past me and straight up the stairs, and I heard him in her room, heard the wardrobe, the drawers, the window. When he came back down he stood at the bottom step with one hand on the post and looked at me, and I could see him deciding something."I'm calling Riley," he said."Okay.""Right now.""Okay, yes, do it."He had the phone out and his thumb was actually on the screen. And that's when mine buzzed on the counter between us, and we both looked at it at the same time.It was an Unknown number. I almost didn't answer. I think a part of me knew that if I answered it would be either the best thing that ever happened to me or the worst, and there's no middle with a call like that. But somehow, I managed to pick it up and put it on speaker."Hello?""Mom."My knees almost gave

    THEA ASHFORD °❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･The soup had gone cold enough that a skin had formed across the top and the bread had hardened at the edges. I stood with my hands on the tray and listened, and when I heard nothing I set a fresh plate down beside the old one and knocked lightly.“Saraphina,” I called. “There’s breakfast. You don’t have to come out but please eat something.”I got no response in return. But even so, I still waited. Went as far as counting to thirty in my head, then to sixty, and when the door stayed shut I reminded myself that this was the pattern we already knew. Gage asked about her late in the afternoon, when he came upstairs with his phone still in his hand and that hollow look he had worn since the blood. I said she was in her room and as usual explained how she needed time. He nodded as if that answer was enough, or as if he did not have the strength to demand a better one, and went back to his calls. The day passed that way.Micah asked if Sara was sick and I kept t

    Yes. It did. It felt like everybody was hiding something from me. And the worst part? He was acting like that piece of information wasn't even a serious deal.My lips trembled because there was a question sitting right at the back of my throat that I wasn't sure I actually wanted answered. But it came out anyway, small and shaking."Am I just her replacement?"“Wouldn’t you need to share some resemblance with her for that to even apply?”That did nothing to comfort me."Then are you planning on using me," I said, "to get back to them?"Silence.It stretched long enough that I felt my heart drop somewhere into my stomach, and I almost regretted asking at all."Did they tell you that," he finally let out, and his voice had gone quiet in a way I didn't like, careful in a way that scared me more than if he'd just gotten angry outright.I didn't answer. But it seemed like I didn't have to because my silence answered for me.He let out a breath, something between a scoff and a sigh, and w

  • Daddies Know How She Tastes Better    CHAPTER 458: Does It Matter?

    His arms tightened around me the second the words left his mouth, like he was bracing for me to pull away, like admitting that much had cost him something. "Noah—""I missed you so much," he cut in, his rough voice muffled against my neck. "Like, fucking unbearably. Every damn second."My face burned instantly, heat crawling up my neck and into my cheeks so fast it almost embarrassed me on its own. I knew, logically, that this was not the moment to be blushing like some lovesick idiot, not with him still hooked up to monitors, especially with everything unresolved and complicated sitting heavy between us. But hearing him say it.Hearing him admit it like it had been dragged out of him against his will, and feeling him hold onto me like I was something precious to him—It just made me so stupidly, uselessly happy."You could've just called," I mumbled into his shoulder, trying to hide how flustered I suddenly was."Right." He huffed a laugh, and I felt it rumble through his chest un
