Quiet Battles is a heartfelt, emotionally rich Chenford story that follows Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen as they navigate the silent wars waged within. When Lucy returns from a night shift to find Tim shaken and distant after a nightmare, she senses his pain-pain he refuses to admit. As Tim responds to a harrowing call involving child abuse, he's forced to confront his own traumatic past, seeing himself in the eyes of the boy he saves.

Though he tries to hide the emotional toll, Lucy is there-pulling him into a quiet corner of the precinct, offering him a rare kind of comfort: a long, grounding hug that chips away at the walls he's built.

As Tim's PTSD resurfaces in the form of vivid nightmares, Lucy becomes his anchor, guiding him out of the darkness with her calming voice and unwavering support. Through whispered reassurances and late-night embraces, the two find healing in each other-proving that the bravest battles are the ones fought silently, and that love often begins with simply being there when the nightmares return.

Between the Lines

22 parts Complete

In the line of duty, they're partners. Off duty, they're something more-something deeper. Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen have always walked a fine line between tension and tenderness, but when an interview gone sideways begins unraveling secrets, everything shifts. A hidden relationship, a brutal breakup, a violent threat -and the return of a familiar monster-throws them into a whirlwind of emotion, action, and heartbreak. As Lucy faces new wounds and haunting reminders of what she's survived, Tim is forced to confront the one fear he can't outrun: losing her. When safety is no longer guaranteed, love becomes the only place left to hide. But some lines, once crossed, can never be uncrossed. From stolen glances to cuffed confessions, playful banter to full-blown breakdowns, this is a story of trust rebuilt, love rediscovered, and two hearts learning what it truly means to be all in.
