Chapter 2013

Amber felt like she was struck by lightning. Each breath she took weighed heavily on her chest as she gazed out the window.The flames outside reflected in her eyes.

She knew it was only a matter of tbefore Jameson disposed of her. After all, he had already harbored suspicion toward her. Yet,she refused to let that beast use her against Axel, the man she loved.

“Amber, will you be scared if | invite you to jump down withfrom here?" Axel grabbed her firmly on the waist with a smile.

Staring into his eyes with a look of determination, she answered, "I'm not scared." "Tsk. Can't you makefeel like a man, justonce?" He playfully glared at her and pinched her on the waist. "You could at least pretend to huddle in my arms and tremble likethe typical damsel in distress." "I'm scared, to be honest." She gazed at him longingly. "But I'm fearless when I'm with you." Axel'sheart of steel melted from her sweet words. Giving her another kiss, he urged, "Let's go!" Next, he wrapped her body under hisblack windbreaker before firing a few shots at the windows.novelbin

They held their breath as smoke filled the room. Then, they sprinted toward the window with all their might. Axel rammed hisbody into the glass, shattering it, and he jumped off the fifth floor while holding Amber tightly.

The flames licked the sky while glass shards and sparks rained on them.

Amber's heart nearly cto a stop. She shut her eyes in fear.

In the frenzy, she overheard Axel's labored breathing, which only added to her anxiety.

Aswishing sound was heard when an extremely thin metal rope whizzed out from his sleeve and attached itself to the wall.

Holding Amber in one arm, Axel scaled down the wall using the metal rope. They landed safely within 10 seconds—a short butmemorable tfor her.

Having no tto take a breather, they held onto each other as they escaped into the woods. Suddenly, Amber cto a pause andtremblingly shook off his hands.

Axel spun around with a look of shock. "Amber-" "I'm sorry, but | can only make it up to here with you." Tears brimming in hereyes, she took a resolute step away from him. "I will only be a burden to you if we stick together. Leave while they haven'treached us.

“Also, please do not look foragain. This thing between us shall end here." "Are you askingto give up on you? At this dangeroustime? Amber Altman, what do you takeas?" Gripped by worry, he gritted his teeth and approached her, but she stumbledbackward.

He argued, "Even if you refuse to leave with me, you cannot possibly return to Jameson's side. He wanted you dead alongsideme. Don't you get it?” "That's true. Jameson Schmidt wanted us dead, but you're still alive. Isn't that right?" She flashed animpassive, heartless smile, yet her heart was torn apart. "I can only live knowing that you're alive. If we stick together, Jamesonwill never let you go, and we'll never enjoy a day of peace. "Axel, | have important business here. | don't have the luxury to be inlove. That's not what | want. But | will always remember the romance we once shared.” With that, she ran into the hellish oceanof flames, leaving him shouting futilely behind her. "Amber Altman! Cback!" Her tears scattered in the chilly breeze.

The fire turned the entire villa into a ruin. Not a living being escaped the tragedy.

Ten men, dressed in black and holding flashlights, launched a search in the scorched building.
