The Single Dad Next Door Loves Me Chapter 108 Mia's Pov
I still didn't understand him.What did he mean by that?“I already told you,” he continued, his thumb brushing lightly against the back of my hand in a gesture that would have felt gentle if it had not been layered with everything else, “you’re different from her.”My gaze flickered briefly toward the girl before I could stop myself, and this time I let it linger just enough to acknowledge her presence without making it obvious that my attention was drawn to her in a way that mattered, because I could feel him watching even in that moment, measuring the length of my glance, the shift in my focus, the meaning behind it.She was still watching me.Always watching me.And there was something in her eyes now that hadn’t been there before, something beyond fear and desperation, something sharper, more urgent, like she had placed all her hope into a single, fragile possibility and that possibility was me.I forced my attention back to him.“In what way?” I asked, my voice steady, controlle

“You?” I watched the corner of his lips curve. “You want to know about yourself? Are you sure?””My lips quivered, too afraid to speak, so I nodded instead.“Yes. Tell me.” I whispered.The question hung in the air lined then it should have been there. Ben straightened slowly, turning back towards me with a look that felt too far focused, far too intentional.“You’re different,” he said.The certainty in his voice made my chest tighten again.“You understand me,” he added, stepping closer to the doorway, closer to me, until I could feel the shift in the air between us again.I forced a small nod, even though everything inside me resisted the motion. “I’m trying to.”His smile returned.Soft.Satisfied.“I know you are.”Behind him, the girl shifted weakly, her hand moving slightly across the mattress as though she was trying to reach for something, anything, and before I could stop myself, my gaze dropped to the movement.Her fingers brushed against the edge of the mattress.Closer an

The door did not swing open all at once, and somehow, that made everything worse, because the slow, deliberate creak of the hinges dragged the moment out longer than I could bear, I stretched the space between what I already feared and what I was about to see into something almost unbearable, while my body remained rooted in place, unable to step forward or back, caught in that fragile in between where instinct screamed at me to run but something far stronger held me there.Ben did not rush it. Of course he didn't. His hand remained steady on the handle, his movements controlled, as though this was not a reveal but an invitation, something he had been waiting to offer at the exact right time, and when the door finally opened wide enough for the darkness inside to begin taking shape, I realized with a sinking certainty that this moment had never been accidental.It had always been coming. The first thing that reached was the smell. It wasn't strong enough to choke or overwhelm me but i
The Single Dad Next Door Loves Me Chapter 105 Ethan's Pov
The house had never felt this short before, not even on the night when the snow buried everything outside and the world outside seemed to pause along with it, because this kind of silence was different, heavier somehow, like it carried something unresolved with it… something that refused to settle no matter how still everything appeared on the surface.Nora's words lingered long after she said them, weaving them into the back of my mind in a way that made it possible to ignore the truth buried inside them, even when I wanted to.Let her go.It should be simple. I had done it once, hadn't I?For goodness sake, I was the one who thought of leaving her before and I did.I walked away from Mia when she needed me the most, convinced myself that it was the right thing to do, that distance would keep her safe, that cutting ties with her would somehow shield her from the danger that has been closing on me long before she ever became a part of my life.And yet, somewhere, here I was, thinking
The Single Dad Next Door Loves Me Chapter 104 Mia's Pov
Morning did not arrive with peace, nor did it bring the comfort people often associated with a new day, because the moment my eyes opened, I was already aware of the weight sitting heavily in my chest, like something had followed me out of the night and settled into my bones without permission.For a while, I remained still beneath the covers, my gaze fixed on the ceiling as I tried to separate what I had heard from what I wished I hadn’t, replaying the faint sound over and over again in my head until it no longer felt like imagination but something far more real, something that refused to be dismissed no matter how badly I wanted it to be nothing.Slowly, I turned my head to the side.Ben was not beside me.The space he had occupied during the night was already cold, the sheets slightly creased as though he had been gone for a while, and for reasons I could not fully explain, that unsettled me more than waking up next to him ever could.I pushed myself up carefully, my movements deli
The Single Dad Next Door Loves Me Chapter 103 Mia's Pov
Another day another attempt, right?Wrong!“Mia?”The sound of my name did not just stop me, it settled over my skin like something deliberate, something that had been waiting patiently for this exact moment, and for a second, my fingers remained frozen inches away from the door handle while my body refused to cooperate with the sudden rush of fear tightening in my chest.Slowly, I turned.Ben stood a few feet behind me, his figure partially swallowed by the dim light spilling from the bedroom, his shirt loose against his frame and his hair slightly disheveled like someone who had just woken up, but there was nothing sleepy about his eyes, nothing distant or unfocused, because they were fixed on me with a level of awareness that made my stomach twist.“How long have you been standing there?” I asked, forcing my voice into something light, something that would not betray the way my pulse had begun to pound violently against my ribs.He tilted his head slightly, almost thoughtfully, as
The Single Dad Next Door Loves Me Chapter 50 Ethan's Pov
I heard Mia scream. A soft fickle sound that tore through the silence of the cabin, even louder than the beeping refrigerator and house heater.I dashed to the kitchen door, ready to run and help but when my hands touched the knob, I froze.The noise stopped and so did time. I leaned my ear on the

Everything was different now. After the argument with Ethan and he slammed the door heavily, rumbling the entire cabin to show a fit of his anger, I knew things wouldn't stay as they were.His truck roared to life near the window outside. I raised my head from my pillow instinctively, as if to che

I told myself I was only going to listen. That's how I justified the drive down the hill, the tires of my car pressing cautious tracks into the fresh snow. I told myself I was not choosing sides. How could I? I wasn't even there?In my mind, I was simply going because I needed to hear his side of t

This was all a big mistake. Getting involved with Mia, kissing her, making out, allowing myself fall too deep in whatever I had with her.Gosh! I slapped myself on the forehead so loud, if we had neighbors, they could have heard me but we didn't, so I slapped again. Safe.Mia was asleep inside, sh
