Arknights Chapter 14 Novels & Stories

Tanin “Tee” has always been the dependable one, the loyal best friend who stood beside Pat through heartbreak, ambition, and every messy chapter in between. So when fate reunites him with Wayu, Pat’s unforgettable ex lover, Tee knows he should keep his distance. But Wayu is no longer the reckless artist who shattered Pat’s heart years ago. Now successful, magnetic, and impossibly charming, Wayu slips past Tee’s defenses with teasing smiles, stolen glances, and a vulnerability hidden beneath his carefree facade. What begins as harmless encounters soon turns into something far more dangerous. Tee finds himself torn between the growing desire he can no longer deny and the friendship he refuses to betray. As buried feelings resurface and old wounds reopen, tensions explode between the two best friends, threatening to destroy the bond they once believed unbreakable. But love is never simple, and neither is Wayu. Behind his playful charm lies a truth Tee never expected, one that could change everything he thought he knew about heartbreak, loyalty, and second chances. Caught between guilt, passion, and the fear of losing everyone he loves, Tee must decide whether following his heart is worth risking it all.

I could see the countdown above a person’s head when they had already decided to leave their partner. The day my father’s countdown hit zero, he slapped a lawyer’s letter on the breakfast table and walked out on my mother and me. The day my best friend’s countdown hit zero, she finally threw her parasite of a boyfriend out of her apartment and changed the locks before sunset. That was why I’d always been terrified of seeing a countdown above my fiancé, Lucian Bellandi. Luckily, for seven years by his side, the space above his head had stayed clean. Lucian was the youngest Don the Bellandi family had ever seen. He owned the docks, the casinos, and half the South Side’s dirty money, yet he saved every soft part of himself for me. Until last month, when he picked me up after a family auction. I looked up and saw blood-red numbers stabbing into my eyes. [702 days, 14 hours, 22 minutes.] Less than two years. My heart tightened like a cold hand had closed around it. I started searching for an answer like a woman losing her mind. Had I done something wrong? Then, during a blizzard by the lake, we ran into Mia Crane at the back entrance of the Bellandi Hotel. Lucian had just brought her into his charity foundation as a new assistant. Snow clung to her hair and lashes. She was shivering from head to toe, but her smile was bright and painfully innocent. Lucian pulled a black silk handkerchief from his breast pocket and handed it to her. His face was calm. There was nothing openly improper in the gesture. But in that exact second, the countdown above his head jumped. [327 days, 4 hours, 47 minutes.] More than three hundred days, gone. And I knew I had found the reason.

After two years of marriage, I believed I was living the dream—until the day I gave birth to our long-awaited heir. The house was filled with joy as my husband's family arrived, bearing gifts and ready to bestow a name upon our child, as tradition dictated. But the happiness of the day shattered in an instant when my husband walked in, hand in hand with his childhood sweetheart. In front of everyone, he announced not only our divorce but also his engagement to her, as if I had never mattered. *** "I’m divorcing Stacy," Jason announces, his voice unwavering, "to marry Nicole Cruz, my childhood sweetheart." He points to the woman standing before him who smiles and waves at everyone in the room. My world tilts on its axis. The words echo in my mind, louder and louder until they drown out everything else. What is going on?? "But why?" I whisper, my voice barely audible, even to myself. I'm unable to believe his betrayal. Jason doesn’t even glance at the child in my arms. "Because this has been a long time coming, Stacy. I’ve only stayed this long out of obligation and not love."
