Can’t Win Me Back

"Don't move!" Carl roared and yanked Amber into his arms.

His arm draped protectively across her front as he pressed the gun against her temple.

"Take a chance if you want to see your beloved die before your eyes!" Carl knew Axel was one of the top secret agents.

Facing all of them alone, taking Axel's life would be effortless.

Carl had nowhere to run—Amber was his last shot at staying alive.

The woman he professed to love was now his hostage, a tragic twist of fate that seemed almost too absurd to bear.

" Axel...

Leave me...

Go!" Amber's voice was resolute despite the tears brimming in her eyes.

"Don't you dare touch her.

If you do, I will ensure you die a torturous death!" Axel's eyes burned with fury and ice, radiating a palpable menace.

"Amber has registered her marriage with me.

She is legally mine!" The look in Carl's eyes was feral.

He was choking Amber so hard that her face had puffed red.
