It’s Not Home Without You by C. Lymari

No one told him she would be coming back…

Max
Time is supposed to heal all wounds. I thought it had healed mine when I found myself ready to say “I Do”. It all came crashing down the moment I saw Freya Pratt again. After all these years she still affected me like no other. I couldn’t deny that she made me feel something I haven’t felt since the day she left. She made me feel alive. Now I’m questioning everything about our past and my future.

Breaking Max’s heart seemed like a good idea at eighteen. I needed him to forget me and let me go. All these years I’d pretended like what we had was never real. I told myself I wanted what was best for him. I told myself that wasn’t me. After seeing him again, I’m not so sure. As his wedding day nears, I wonder if I should tell him the real reason why I left. Would it even make a difference?
