Chapter 2

Author’s NoteOkay… be honest.Did you feel that shift? 👀This chapter wasn’t about a big dramatic moment—it was about something quieter. The kind of change people don’t notice right away… until it’s too late to ignore.Brielle didn’t suddenly become someone else.She just stopped hiding.And somehow, that hit harder than anything she could’ve said or done.Also… that presence she felt?Yeah. We’re not going to ignore that.Next chapter starts getting messy—in a good way. Reactions, tension, and maybe a certain someone realizing things aren’t as simple as he thought.Tell me what you think—did you like this version of Brielle? Or are you waiting for her to snap already? 👀🔥
