Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

"Lyse is like a pure and innocent goddess to me. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get any nearer to

her. You will never understand the extent of my pain." Jameson shut his eyes and grappled with the

piercing heartache.

His heart drummed against his ribcage, begging to be freed. Trapped in despair, it was a howling beast

demanding to be released.

"I had once wanted the best for her. But now, I even entertain the idea of hurting her. If she's a

goddess, I'd like to defile her, pulling her to my level..."

He thought, "Alyssa Taylor, I am a cunning scorpion. A scorpion is cruel in nature. It'd sting the frog that

helps carry it over the river.

"But I won't kill you. I'll simply love you in my own way."

It didn't take Jasper long to get his hands on the addresses of the two young girls. The next afternoon,

Xavier drove Alyssa and Jasper to meet with the two victims in the hope of convincing them to serve as

witnesses in court.

To avoid imposing pressure on the girls' families, they deliberately showed up in an ordinary black

sedan. Alyssa and Jasper dressed in simple suits. Jasper did not look much different from his usual

self, as he always commanded a regal air and looked good in whatever he wore.

On the other hand, Alyssa had transformed into a wholly different woman. She showed up barefaced,

looking as humble and trustworthy as a public servant.

Despite her low profile appearance, she looked dazzling because she carried herself with confidence.

She seemed to carry a glow with her that attracted the attention of the opposite sex. It might be a crude

description, but a man would harden upon laying eyes on her.

"Hey, can you stop staring at me in that manner?" Alyssa had goosebumps after being stared at for ten

minutes or so and inched further away from Jasper. "It feels a little perverted."

Jasper could not hold back anymore and pulled her into his arms. He accused, "Lyse, you're seducing

me."

"B-But I did nothing." Confused, she pressed a hand against his chest.

"You look so sexy in this outfit." His eyes filled with desire. He held her chin and attempted to kiss her.

Even when she was dressed in a monotone outfit, she still looked alluring to him.

"No. Jasper, we're on a serious mission. I'm not in the mood for this." She pressed a finger against his

lips with a long face.

"I'm sorry, Lyse." Feeling bad, he sighed. "It's my fault for not being sensible."

"You lived like a monk in the past, but now, you're... horny all the time." She pouted.

Grinning, he teased, "Do you want me to return to who I was?" "Can you?"

"Of course not." His breath tickled her ear. He gently massaged her nape and added, "I'm living a

secular life now. Can't take one more day of asceticism."

She bit her lip and blushed in embarrassment.

At that time, Xavier stepped on the brakes, and their car rolled to a stop in front of an old apartment

block.
