Can’t Win Me Back

Axel was standing on a balcony at Heightsnew Villa when he answered Jameson's call, his black coat billowing in the wind.

The chilling wind stung his cheeks.

Jameson's mocking voice was like a devil's whisper.

A lump formed in Axel's throat, making it hard to breathe.

His eyes burned red.

"Jameson, you must have a fucking death wish!" "T've heard that countless times in the last 15 years.

But talk is cheap.

No one's touched me yet," Jameson replied with a chuckle.

" Care to be the one to walk into the lion's den, Mr. Axel?" "You think you're a lion? Ha!" Axel scoffed, his chest heaving.

" You're just a hyena feeding on carrion." "Amber and my secretary, Carl, will be having their grand wedding in Kontina next Saturday.

She's the woman you're deeply in love with.

Will it be a lifetime of regret for you if you missed her wedding?" A seasoned secret agent, Axel's instincts were razor-sharp, yet Jameson's words chilled him to the bone.

"Jameson, if you hurt Amber, I'll hunt you down.

To the ends of the earth, or hell itself!" "T plan to give the newlyweds a grand gift on their big day." Jameson sniggered, his voice filled with twisted excitement.

"I hope you'll join us in Kontina.

If not, you'll regret it for the rest of your life." "Jameson Schmidt!" Axel roared with hatred in his eyes.

But Jameson had already hung up, leaving Axel's rage and hatred to consume him.
