CHAPTER TEN || IMANI

TW:
I was frozen in my body. My movement, my blood ran cold, my ability to think. I just start crying keeping my face away from his. Where did he go? Why couldn't Gabriel find him? Why is he here? Oh, why is he here. I have no words to tell him. I just keep quiet and shut my eyes letting the tears fall down my cheeks. I feel defenseless.

"Hello my love," Max says menacingly walking over to me and kissing my cheek. I can't push him off. I feel so helpless. I want Gabriel.

"Don't worry your never running away from me again," he whispers in my ear grabbing onto my throat. He squeezes harder and harder and the panic rushes onto my face.

"Never again."

They close the door to the plane and the roaring tube of metal starts moving around onto the tarmac. Max sits in the seat next to me grabbing onto my trapped hand.

"Don't be nervous baby your in great hands," he says. Please come and get me my Gabriel.

"Hello this is your captain speaking we have landed in Reim, France. please get ready for the departure off the aircraft" the captain says over the intercom. I never wanted to come back.

"We're home baby" Max says kissing my hand and temple.

I still can't find my words. I have nothing I want to say to this man. If you can even call him a man. He degraded me, he abused me, he raped me, he made me loose my child.

TW:
*flashback*

"It's a girl" the nurse says removing the tool from my stomach. I breakdown. I finally got my baby.

"Max, max did you hear" I say excitedly shaking his hand. But he doesn't react. He just stares at the wall blankly.

"Congratulations." the nurse says walking out the room. I don't try and get Max out his trance I'm to happy. I can do her hair and pick a dress for prom. Or a suit if thats her thing. Be there when she has her first child.

I get up off the table and go to the main area to check out and Max follows behind still in his trance. Walking to the car, I sit in the passenger's seat and text my best friend, Aliana, the good news.

I giggle at my phone and just scroll through some baby websites adding some girl clothes to my cart

Max is still silent. What is up with him?

We arrive back at our house and I walk inside and Max follows closely behind.

"Okay so what was that abo-" I say before Max grabs my throat. He looks crazy. His eyes are fixated directly at me and he has no smile.
