HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter91***THE FIRST ARGUMENT
The argument did not start loudly.It started with silence.The kind that lingers too long.The kind that fills a room until it becomes heavy.Tiana noticed it around noon.Vince had taken two calls back-to-back, his tone clipped, sharp, authoritative. The Vince she had first met. The one people feared. The one who never hesitated to make decisions that affected lives.She hadn’t heard that voice in weeks.And it unsettled her.He ended the call and walked into the living room.She was sitting by the window with her sketchbook, but she wasn’t drawing anymore. She was watching him.“What happened?” she asked.“Work,” he replied shortly.She waited for more.Nothing came.“That tone,” she said gently. “I haven’t heard it in a while.”Vince exhaled, rubbing his temple.“A contractor is delaying a demolition project. They’re asking for compensation I’m not willing to give.”The words hit her like a slap.Demolition.Compensation.Her fingers tightened around the sketchbook.“Demolition wh
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter90***THE QUESTION HE WAS AFRAID TO ASK
Vince had been quiet all morning.Not distant.Not distracted.Just… thoughtful.Tiana noticed it while pouring tea into two cups. He stood by the window with his phone in his hand, but he wasn’t using it. His gaze was fixed outside, jaw tight, mind clearly somewhere else.“You’re doing that thing again,” she said.He turned. “What thing?”“Thinking too loudly.”A faint smile touched his lips, but it didn’t reach his eyes.He walked toward her and accepted the cup she offered.“Can I ask you something?” he said.Tiana paused.There was a weight in his voice that made her heart shift slightly.“Okay.”They sat opposite each other at the table.The morning sun spilled across the surface between them like a quiet witness.Vince wrapped his fingers around the cup but didn’t drink.“If the treatment works,” he began slowly, “if you get years… a full life…”He hesitated.Tiana felt it.This wasn’t a casual question.This was something he had been carrying for days.“What then?” he asked.Sh
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter89***THE PLACE SHE NEVER RETURNED TO
Tiana did not tell Vince where they were going.Not because she wanted to surprise him.But because saying it out loud would make it real.And she wasn’t sure she was ready for real.“Left here,” she said quietly.Vince followed the direction without question.They had left the polished roads and tall glass buildings behind nearly twenty minutes ago. The city had slowly changed into something older. Narrower streets. Low houses. Faded paint. Familiar silence.Vince glanced at her.Her hands were clasped tightly in her lap.Her breathing had gone shallow.He didn’t ask.He already knew.The car stopped in front of a piece of land that no longer looked like a home.Just a flat stretch of dry soil with patches of wild grass fighting to grow through it.No gate.No fence.No structure.Just emptiness.Tiana didn’t move immediately.She stared.As if she expected the house to suddenly appear again.As if memory could rebuild walls.“That’s it,” she whispered.Vince turned off the engine.N
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter88***THE THINGS SHE WANTED BACK
Tiana woke with a decision already formed in her chest.Not loud.Not dramatic.Just clear.She wanted pieces of her old life back.Not the painful ones.Not the ones tied to fear or survival.But the simple, forgotten parts that had quietly slipped away while she was busy trying to stay alive.Vince noticed it immediately.She wasn’t moving slowly this morning.She wasn’t pausing between steps as if measuring her strength.She was moving with intention.Purpose.“You’re planning something,” he said from the doorway as she tied her hair into a loose ponytail.She smiled at him through the mirror.“Yes.”He raised a brow.“Should I be worried?”“Very.”She dragged him into the car without explanation.No hospital.No appointments.No pharmacy.Just a destination she refused to name.Vince didn’t argue.He had learned that when Tiana looked like this—eyes bright with quiet mischief—it was better to follow than to question.They stopped in front of a small art store.Vince blinked.She t
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter87***A MORNING THAT FELT NEW
Tiana woke before the alarm.Not from pain.Not from the dull heaviness that had become familiar these past months.But from stillness.A quiet, gentle stillness inside her body that felt… unfamiliar.She lay there for a moment, staring at the ceiling, trying to understand what had changed.Then she realized.Nothing hurt.Not in the way it usually did.She turned her head slightly.Vince was still asleep beside her, one arm stretched across the bed as if even in sleep he had been reaching for her.She watched him for a long time.The slow rise and fall of his chest.The relaxed lines of his face.He looked younger when he slept.Less guarded.Less like a man constantly preparing for bad news.Carefully, she slipped out of bed.Her feet touched the floor without hesitation.She walked to the window and pulled the curtains aside.Morning light poured into the room.And for the first time in a long while, she didn’t feel like she was watching the day begin from the outside.She felt lik
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter86***THE FEAR SHE DIDN’T NAME
The hospital corridor felt longer than usual.Tiana walked beside Vince slowly, her steps careful but steady. Today wasn’t a treatment day. It was a results day.And somehow, that felt worse.Treatment meant action.Results meant waiting to hear what her body had decided to do with that action.She hated how quiet everything felt.Even the nurses’ voices sounded softer, as if the walls themselves respected the tension patients carried in with them.Vince squeezed her hand gently.“You don’t have to be brave,” he murmured.She gave him a small smile.“I’m not trying to be brave.”“What are you trying to be?”“Prepared.”They sat in the consultation room.Tiana’s eyes fixed on the doctor’s desk, on the neatly arranged files, on the computer screen that held answers she wasn’t sure she wanted yet.Her heart beat steadily.Too steadily.Like it had accepted that whatever came next would change something permanently.The door opened.The doctor stepped in with a calm expression.That scare
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter10***THE RULE BETWEEN US
The ride back was quiet.Not the stiff, uncomfortable kind of silence that begged to be filled. This one simply existed between them, stretching long and weightless, like something neither of them wanted to disturb.Tiana leaned her head slightly against the cool glass of the window, watching the c
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter8***A DANCE
Before she could complete her words, he pulled her to him and kissed her. There had been no warning and this caught her off guard.Tiana gasped against him, her hands instinctively pressed against his chest in an attempt to push but her action only made him tighten his grip at her waist, pulling h
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter7***WHAT DO I GET
“ I hope you understand dear…” Jacob began, specifically focusing on Tiana“That marrying into a family as ours, is not something simple, especially to someone as my nephew, who's possibly had sex with more women than the stars combined”Silence as loud as a thousand chiming bells filled the hall a
HIS COLD ADDICTION chapter 6***FUTURE MRS DONOVAN
The door of the living room opened and Tiana could feel the atmosphere around Vince turn colder the moment he saw whom walked in. His hand which was wrapped around her waist tightened slightly as the new guest stepped in. Dressed in a black suit, his grey hair was combed back neatly and his bea
