Never Too Far Novel

With just three minutes left on the countdown timer next to Willow, she looked at Jasper, mentally preparing for the inevitable. Her sole wish was to imprint his image in her memory before dying. She hoped that in her next life, she could spot him in a crowd, for if they couldn’t be together in this lifetime, she was determined to reunite with him in the next.

While Calvin had Jasper pinned down, it appeared Calvin had the upper hand. However, Jasper spotted an opportunity when Calvin let his guard down and quickly took action. With a quick move, Jasper elbowed the ground and wrapped his long legs around Calvin’s neck. He sat firmly on Calvin, reaching for the key hanging around his neck, and yanked it.

Calvin was instantly strangled by the chain, which turned into a deadly weapon, cutting off his breath and turning his face purple. He desperately swung his fists, trying to dislodge Jasper from his shoulders. However, Jasper’s legs continued to tighten around Calvin’s neck, dragging him closer to the edge of death. Calvin’s face changed to a sickly shade of purple and red.

Suddenly, blood spurted from Calvin’s neck as the chain severed his windpipe. With a fierce expression, he fell to his knees. Only then did Jasper step away and remove the chain hanging from Calvin’s neck. At this critical moment, there were just 15 seconds left on the countdown timer next to Willow.

Willow had been engrossed in Jasper’s counterattack, forgetting momentarily that she stood next to the Grim Reaper. However, when Jasper rushed to unlock her handcuffs, she realized the danger she was still in.

Just then, she saw Calvin, who had fallen to the ground, suddenly rise again. Despite his broken neck, he was brimming with murderous intent as he charged toward Jasper.
