Max's POV

"They'll find her, don't worry." Martha said over the phone. Petra had called her after he barged into her office yet again. It was crazy how involved they were in his life. It made him realize how much of a fool he had been all these years, thinking that he was ever alone, they had always been there.

His overbearing mother - Helen, his passionate sister - Martha, his intuitive friend - Petra. A friend indeed; she had proved herself, maybe because she also blamed herself for what happened with Sloane, because the crazed woman was her half-long-distance cousin.

Sloane!.

He gritted his teeth. It took everything in him not to throw her a punch that night. Not able believe she drugged him, after he allowed her in, trusted her, like a fool, again, as always was when it came to her.

He had been clean for years, till that night, he wasn't really stoned or high but it made him drowsy, so when she started removing his clothes, he couldn't push her off, it didn't help tha

I've been away for too long!, sorry. I hope you like this one. The story is drawing to a close guys. In the past, I've struggled with killing Breanna or keeping her alive to end the story. Its no news that I have rewritten the story, but in both versions, some characters just keep popping up to complicate things. Now, I genuinely don't know what to do. Ha ha. PS - the tag says edited, not for grammar, but story edit......i started this chapter a while back, so if you see mistakes, kindly point them out. Love, Bee.

Tiana asked quietly. "And if not, well?." He asked his partner - Yakub and they crackled. "We, get to have fun with you." "Why don't you just piss off!." Tiana spat. "Watch your filthy mouth." He snapped ready to beat her up again. Tiana was yet again about to reply him, but Breanna stopped her. "Tiana, please." She called out softly. If the girl kept getting into trouble this much, it might as well be the end of her. Breanna wasn't sure she would have the strength to survive the place if Tiana was not there.

Would he ever be able to move on from this lose this time around?.Amidst his deep depraving thoughts Breanna replied."When I left, it was too hard to maintain."

As promised Martha, he planned a small dinner for the family, Cece and Steve, Petra and her husband, for a simple dinner and maybe poker.Only one problem to hosting his family, cooking. He took a left turn remembering where the spice isle was, as he came into the opening, the smell of fresh basil, paprika and other spices he could not pronounce hit his nose. But that was barely the surprise, his eyes lifted up, following the shadow of the person at the other extreme end of the isle, he stopped dead in his tracks.Standing there at the other end was Breanna. Just as beautiful as she was last night in his dreams. Her melanin skin seemed to have gotten a tan, glowing under the supermarket led lights. Her slicked back in a low ponytail."Hi."
