His Assistant His Ruin Chapter 30
Doris woke up to the smell of fresh bread and tea and light moving across the floor in slow gold lines, she lay still for a moment and listened because the mansion sounded different now, no more footsteps running like someone was chasing, no more doors slamming like someone was afraid, just soft sounds of people moving because they wanted to, not because they had toShe opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was the flower Delvis had put in the vase on her desk yesterday, it was still fresh and the light made the petals look bright, she smiled because small things felt big nowWhen she opened the door Delvis was already in his chair with coffee in one hand and a small plate of bread in the other, his hair was a little messy like he had run his hand through it too many times and his eyes looked tired but calm“Morning,” Delvis said and held out the breadDoris took it and sat on the floor next to his chair instead of going to the balcony, “you’re getting better at breakfast”Delvi

Doris woke up before the sun and the room felt different again, not because anything changed but because her heart felt lighter, she opened her door and Delvis was already awake in his chair with coffee in one hand and a notebook in the other“Morning,” Doris said and took the coffee he held outDelvis nodded, “morning, you slept without moving, I checked”Doris laughed soft, “you checked my breathing again”Delvis looked down at the notebook, “I check what matters”They drank coffee on the balcony while the sky turned pink, below them Mama Rose was already in the garden picking herbs and humming, the safe wing windows glowed warm because the women inside were awake and not scaredEthan came up the stairs with a letter and a tired smile, “more good news, the court sent word that Stanley’s appeal was denied, he’s not getting out, not ever”Doris felt relief move through her chest like a wave, “then it’s really finished”Ethan set the letter on the table, “as finished as it gets, his na

Doris woke up to the sound of birds and light moving across the floor, she lay still for a moment and listened to the quiet because quiet now meant peace instead of waiting for something bad, then she sat up and saw Delvis was already at her door with two cups of coffee and that small look on his face that meant he had been up for hours watching the halls“Morning,” Delvis said and held out one cupDoris took it and smiled, “you always beat me up”Delvis shrugged, “I don’t sleep much, you do now, that’s enough”They drank coffee together on her balcony, the garden below looked green and alive and the air smelled like flowers after rain from last night, guards walked the paths but they waved instead of staring hard like beforeEthan came up the stairs with a folder under his arm and a paper in his hand, he looked tired but lighter, “court sent the last of Stanley’s paperwork, house is officially his no more, everything goes to the family trust now, which means you and Delvis”Doris set

Doris woke up and the first thing she noticed was that the room did not feel like a cage anymore, the safe room still had thick walls and one door but now the lamp made warm light and the bed had extra blankets and there was a small vase on the table with the flower she picked from the garden yesterday, Delvis had put it there while she sleptDelvis was in his chair by the door like always but his shoulders looked less tight today, he had a book open on his lap but he was not reading it, he was watching the door and listening to every sound in the hall“You’re awake,” he said when he heard her moveDoris sat up and stretched her arms, “I slept through the whole night without checking the lock, that’s new”Delvis nodded once, “that’s good”Ethan knocked and came in with a tray of food and a stack of papers, he set the tray on the table and looked at both of them, “court sent the final papers this morning, Stanley’s sentence is official, he’s not coming out for a long time”Doris felt s

Doris woke up to sunlight moving across the floor and for a moment she forgot where she was until she saw Delvis still sitting by the door with his back straight and his eyes open, he had not moved much during the night and the cup of water from yesterday sat empty on the tableThe safe room felt smaller in daylight but safer too, like the walls had decided to protect her instead of trap herDelvis stood up slow when he saw her awake and stretched his shoulders without making a sound, “morning”Doris sat up and pulled the blanket around her, “you didn’t sleep again”Delvis shook his head once, “I rest better when you’re breathing easy”Doris felt her chest get tight in a good way, she stood up and walked to the window, the garden outside looked bright and clean after all the rain, birds moved between the trees and for the first time the mansion did not feel like a prisonThere was a soft knock on the door and Ethan’s voice came through, “news from the court, Stanley’s trial date is se

Doris woke up because the lamp in the safe room was still on and the light felt warm on her face, she sat up slow and looked around and the first thing she saw was Delvis sitting against the door with his head tipped back and his eyes closed but she knew he was not sleeping because his hand stayed close to the gun in his lap and his breathing was steady in a way that meant he was listening to everythingThe rain had stopped sometime in the night and now the air smelled like wet stone and something clean that made Doris feel like the world outside might be a little less dangerous for a few hours“You’re awake,” Delvis said without opening his eyesDoris hugged the blanket closer, “how did you know”Delvis opened his eyes and looked at her, they were tired but clear, “you breathe different when you’re dreaming”Doris felt her face get hot, she did not know what to say to that so she just nodded and stood up, her legs felt stiff from sitting on the floor all night, Delvis stood up too an

Doris did not sleep much that night but she was not scared, the floor outside her door creaked once every hour like Delvis was shifting in his chair and every time she heard it she pulled the blanket higher and felt safe in a way she never had before, because the man who had stood between her and S

Doris woke up to silence. No footsteps. No shouting. No knocking. Just quiet. The kind of quiet that made her heart beat faster because it felt too perfect.She sat up in bed and looked at the chair. Delvis’s jacket was still folded there. She touched it with her fingers. It was cold now. He had n

Doris woke up to sunlight on her face. For once, she did not feel scared when she opened her eyes. The key was still on her table, but it did not feel heavy today. It just felt like a key.She got out of bed and washed her face. The mansion was quiet. No shouting. No footsteps running in the hall.
His Assistant His Ruin Chapter 20
Doris stayed on the garden bench long after Ethan and Delvis went inside. The key in her pocket felt warm now. Like it had been there too long. She pulled it out and looked at it again. Same small silver key. Same quiet weight. But everything around it had changed.She thought about what happened
