Almost Casual - Chenford
Tim Bradford doesn't believe in distractions - which is exactly why Sergeant Lucy Chen is becoming one. She transfers in polished, composed, and entirely unimpressed by his reputation, meeting every dry remark with a steadier one of her own. He doesn't go easy on people, but he doesn't go hard on her either, and that line between professional and personal starts to blur in the quiet moments - shared patrol cars, lingering eye contact, the kind of teasing that sounds harmless until it isn't. She carries herself like someone who has more waiting for her than just the job, and Tim tells himself he doesn't need to know what that is. He just needs to remember she's his partner - and nothing else.

Because not only is she the daughter of lieutenant Wade Grey of Mid Wilshire, but she is also the wife of Mid Wilshire's sergeant Tim Bradford. And she wants to keep all this a secret so no one thinks she has gotten special treatment, she wants to prove herself. But this means keeping her secrets hidden...
The truth comes out
‼️TW: CONTENT REGARDING SCHOOL SHOOTINGS‼️ Tim Bradford has built his life around control, discipline, and keeping his personal life exactly that personal. At Mid Wilshire, he's known as one of the toughest officers in the LAPD, respected, feared, and completely private about his past. The only thing his colleagues know for certain is that he's married they just don't know to who. That secret becomes even harder to keep when Lucy Chen joins the force as a rookie. What no one at the station knows is that Lucy isn't just any rookie. She's his wife. And together, they share a life outside the badge and a five year old daughter, Charlotte. Assigned together by chance, Tim becomes Lucy's training officer, forcing them to navigate long shifts, dangerous calls, and the constant risk of being discovered. Between stolen moments of normal family life and the chaos of police work, they manage to keep their world balanced until everything changes in an instant.Complete

WEDLOCKED
The man in the corner-the guard assigned by our families to ensure the union is 'properly consummated' watches us with dispassionate eyes. It makes my skin crawl, but then Tim shifts his hips, and a sharp gasp tears from my throat, drowning out everything else. I bury my face in the crook of his neck to hide from the guard, inhaling the scent of sandalwood and expensive whiskey. My fingers dig into his shoulders as the rhythm builds. "Tell me something about you," he murmurs against my hair, his voice ragged but clear despite the exertion. "What?" I moan, confused and dizzy, pressing my lips to the damp skin of his neck in a desperate attempt to anchor myself. He slows his pace just enough to force me to focus, pulling back slightly so he can look me in the eye, even as his body remains connected to mine. "I want to get to know my wife."

Dirty Little Secret - Chenford
She knows better than to let him touch her. But behind closed doors, better doesn't matter. It's the way he pulls her close like she already belongs there. The way her breath breaks when his mouth finds her skin. The way she forgets her own name when he says it low enough. No one sees what happens in the dark. And she'd rather die than admit how much she needs it.
