Broken

Third-party pov

She was wild and strong-headed, but even then, everyone could see Alexandra Garner breaking. She was breaking with every second that passed and the brains she had blown had her so close to giving in to her pain and letting it out. But she wanted to hold on, she never cried and she would not cry.

Not now and not ever.

After her stunt with Chase, she went and sat beside Ryan. He was her only hope right at that moment because he understood her. Mia wouldn't be here till morning because she had traveled to Namibia and it would take a while. Sure, she had seen the video of her girlfriend losing it all. And it should have repulsed her, but Mia knew she was Lexi's only hope.
