Chapter 1 - When Path’s Collide

In a huge town named Lebsonville, there lived a very smart young lady by the name of Mary Stopes, Mary had avoided anything related to romantic relationships or any slight encounter that may have led to her having a strong feeling for any male whatsoever including her father. Mary during her first year at Charlottesville studying criminal investigation, on a particular day walked into the long corridor and the doors behind her swung bringing very cold, shiver-causing air. A young man walked past her 

his scent so enticing she turned to see his face to someone who so similarly looked like her course most attractive, nonchalant, and charming young man, her thoughts making her wonder "Could it be him ?".

The day carried along well till she had the Criminal Investigation 301 lecture, she made sure to sit behind the lecture room where the light didn't so brightly shine upon her eyes or so yet table. The scent she had smelt earlier came closer and closer till she turned to see the only Matthew Kiona, he slightly stretched his hand out for a hand the words followed "Hi, I'm Matthew K. What a pleasure to be seated next to shut a beautiful lady" she so simply thought "I'm beautiful ? Did he just say that ?" but so quick to return a response "Hey Matthew, such a pleasure to meet you. I'm Mary Stopes- Or should I say S?" they both giggled to that. Their conversation continued neutrally, but they eventually switched numbers. Days went by as they had been getting to know each other over the phone, and they ended up meeting for lunch - It went well.

Days went by as they started getting closer, Mary went over to the town's popular café where she sang the entrance door so hard she bumped into a gigantic-looking man who violently shrugged followed by the words "What The Fuck !" She apologized as she tried wiping the spilled liquid over the man's matte black shirt. She looked up to apologize yet again to the

man as he grinned as if his plan had worked, "Relax princess, if I could get another with you this time then you're forgiven" - what she then said increased his anger levels "I'm sorry, I could repay you for the spilled coffee". She then went on to order another coffee for the man, and as soon as she turned he was out of her sight. 

The man had already seated into his matte black Lamborghini Urus "Put an eye on that lil thang, I want her to be mine. Any slight misunderstanding report it to me". Days had gone by without any suspicious movement from her till she had a morning lecture and of course, she had been seated next to Matthew, the intel was then given to the gigantic-looking man from the café. Hearing what he was told led him to be extremely aggravated "Make sure he disappears, she belongs to me" and so his space boys did as they were told, Later on, that day Mary had already sent +10 messages to Matthew and she had received no response of which she found odd for whenever she had sent a message within a minute she would've received a response. Weeks and months had gone by without a single trace of where Matthew could've been, she became worried sick about his whereabouts and began to feel over-concerned so she began to let go. 

A month later at the very same café, she bumps into the gigantic-looking man, who greets her politely so asking if they could have a cup of coffee or cappuccino together. Without any hesitation, she proceeds to accept that, and they sit and talk about their likes and dislikes Mary mentions one of her dislikes being any romantic relations the gigantic man so shocked proceeds to introduce himself as "Lloyd" - a striking compliment from Mary "What nice name, I'm Mary" their little date went on and on for an unnoticeable 2 hours if them enjoying each other's company. They exchanged numbers and began going out often, but Lloyd's flashy cars, house, and the rest of his lifestyle factors were just a little too much for simply an ordinary businessman.
