Until I'm Home
Lucy Chen's life was shattered in an instant when she was kidnapped and buried alive, trapped in darkness both physical and emotional. Rescued by Tim Bradford, a steadfast and protective officer, her path to recovery is steeped in pain, flashbacks, and the daunting struggle to trust again. As she battles the shadows of her past - and the complicated presence of Tim's lingering relationship with Rachel - Lucy finds herself retreating, terrified of letting anyone close. Tim refuses to give up on her, standing by her side every agonizing step of the way, his own heart breaking with hers. But love remains unspoken, fragile, and tentative as they try to navigate trauma, jealousy, and their own fears. Amid moments of tenderness and tension, they slowly forge a connection that neither expected but both desperately need. Set against the gritty backdrop of police work and the intimate battleground of healing, this story explores the raw reality of trauma and the redemptive power of love.

He was drunk. And there's not a single minute he doesn't regret it. Lucy didn't hear it from him. She found out from her. The woman. Lucy left the operation early. She was heartbroken. And their love... just couldn't survive it. They broke up. And Lucy? She found comfort in Chris's arms. He was there for her. Support. Safety. A friend. She tried to forget Tim. And she got back together with Chris. But she doesn't love him. She never will. Because in her heart-there's only one man. Tim. Always has been. Always will be. And Tim? He's falling apart. Especially when Chris shows up to pick her up. He wants to punch him. Every time. But he can't. Because this... is all his fault.
