“I did take it… but…” She shakes her head, wiping her tears away “But it’s gone now”

Trying to read these un I need him to drop it Fast

“Put your gun down and we can talk,” I say cal this axe, I have a feeling this situation could turn deadly all too fast

“Talk?” Joe laughs “I don’t talk”

Max smirks “Yeah, you just eat”

Joe walks to the coffee table and takes a plate of French toast, eating it as if he doesn’t have a care in the world I back around, keeping myself between Cozy and these men

“Where is the money?” Max demands

“I took it I did I stole the money but then the car… It was broken into while I was in a store Nothing is left”

“Who would break into your piece of shit car?” Joe asks, licking his syrupy fingers

Cozette reaches for ht blow over any moment “Did you hire someone to come after me? Because maybe they double-crossed you”

Max hisses his distaste, focusing on Joe “Motherfucking Andre I’onna kill that bastard”

It gives er at Andre to take control Ithe flat of the axe into his gun ar for his hand with the gun, I bend his wrist until he lets go of the revolver It slides to the floor and Cozette runs for it as it spins on the hardwood

With the gun in her hand, she lifts it, cocking it My girl is one bad ass woman and it makes me love her all the more

Using both hands, I shove the axe handle under Max’s chin, I choke hi the decision is easy He either does ant or he dies

Joe drops the plate of French toast and it cracks as it hits the floor, but Cozy, with tears falling down her porcelain cheeks, turns to him “I am not your property anyhest bidder? Well, that won’t happen I will kill you before I let it”

“Drop the gun, Cozette,” Max breathes, though the words are choked as he struggles “Don’t do so stupid”

“Stupid?” she asks “The stupid thing was letting you keep me locked up for how many years? I don’t need you and I never did”
