Max pulled her closer and rested her head on his chest, not minding her wet body and messy hair. She was beautiful, and he could see that through the hand-me-downs. "Max" Salma called. "I need to talk to you about something." Her voice was as soft as the hand on his chest. "Is everything okay?" Max was visibly concerned. "Hmmmm, well..." Just as she was about to speak, the bell rang. "Oh, you have to go." She muttered. "I'll wait a little, then follow you." Max visibly didn't like this. If it were up to him, they'd walk out together holding hands. But that's not how they had stayed a secret the whole time. "I guess I'll see you in biology." He said, feeling defeated. Salma didn't say a word but she smiled in response. As Max turned around to leave, she felt her heart sink. She needed to tell him. Or maybe she didn't. Perhaps she should just have the pregnancy terminated. Salma took a few books off the shelf, checked them out, walked out of the library, and back into the halls that she had dreaded so much. As she made her way to her locker, the eyes that stared her down turned their gazes to the entrance as the doors swung loudly open. "Mum?" Salma gasped. Before she could utter another word her mother was standing in front of her, beaten and bloodied. "Did dad do this to you?" "We have to leave." Her mother grabbed her by the hand and dashed out of the hallway. In the classroom, Max sat staring at the door, unable to concentrate without an idea that Salma, his first love, who was pregnant with his baby, wouldn't be walking through that door ever again. Salma, a beautiful highschool scholarship student in a school above her league, had to run away from everything she knew. But nothing hurt more than leaving Maximilian Harrington, the heir to the Billion-dollar Nova Industries estate. Years passed and Max is engaged to Olivia Anderson, the mortal enemy and highschool bully of Salma in a strategic bid to merge two powerful billionaire empires. As time and distance passed dragged the two further apart, would they ever have a second chance at true love? Would Max ever find out about his child? Would Salma ever outrun the abuse tailing her? Would Maximilian choose duty over emotions and continue a loveless marriage with Olivia? Find out in "Salma: The Billion-dollar Entanglement"
