"you're married. I can't be a mistress, I don't wanna settle for somebody's else's property. You have to let me go." konamie sniffled, wiping the tears that spilled from her eyes. Kentrell grabbed her wrist, pulling her closer to him. "you not a mistress, nami. Please just give me a chance to fix all this. I don't wanna let you go. I love you." but he also loved her and he can't have both so what he pose to do. HIS MISSES, HIS MISTRESS.

Brielle loves her boyfriend. She loves Elijah in the way you love someone you've already chosen - deeply, patiently, and with the expectation that love will eventually meet you where you are. For a long time, she believes it will. When it doesn't, she tells herself she's asking for too much, that love isn't supposed to feel loud all the time. Still, something is missing. Elijah cares for her, but not in the ways she needs. He assumes the relationship is fine, while Brielle slowly learns how to carry her disappointment quietly. She stays. She adjusts. She keeps loving him anyway. When the weight becomes too heavy, Brielle does not go looking for escape. She goes looking for understanding. She finds it in Psalms-Elijah's closest friend. Psalms pays attention in ways Elijah doesn't think to. He notices when Brielle goes quiet. He asks questions and waits for the answer. Being around him feels easier, and Brielle doesn't realize how much she's been holding in until she doesn't have to. By the time Brielle realizes how deeps she gotten it was already too late. She finds herself caught between the man who she loves and the man with a few missing screws that makes her feel loved.

When Hurricane Katrina tore through New Orleans, it didn't just destroy homes-it destroyed lives, families... and the unbreakable bond between two best friends. Dejahnae and Kentrell were inseparable, the kind of connection that felt destined, unshakable. Until the storm came and ripped them apart without warning. In the chaos, they lost everything-including each other. Left with nothing but grief and unanswered questions, both were forced to survive in a world that no longer felt like home. Ten years later, survival looks different. Kentrell is now a chart-topping rapper, known for his raw lyrics and haunted sound-but behind the fame is a man still drowning in the past. The storm never really left him. Nightmares, guilt, and a pain he can't outrun follow him everywhere he goes. And no matter how far he's come, he never stopped searching for the one person he lost that night. Dejahnae, now a trauma therapist, has dedicated her life to helping others heal... even though she never truly healed herself. She's learned how to carry pain, how to bury it, how to smile through it-but not how to let it go. When fate unexpectedly brings them face-to-face again, the reunion isn't what either of them imagined. Because love didn't disappear that night... but trust did. Old wounds reopen, buried truths rise to the surface, and the question they've both avoided for years finally demands an answer- Did you leave me... or did I lose you? As past and present collide, Dejahnae and Kentrell must confront the storm that still lives inside them. Because this time, it's not just about finding each other again... It's about deciding if they can survive each other.
