Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue



"The Millennium is the only place I've learned how to live in. Besides, it's the most suitable place for someone like me. I don't need any other options," Amber said.

She needed to distance herself from Axel before it was too late.

"What if I wanted to take you with me? Would you come with me if I could bring you somewhere Jameson or his friends could never find you?" Axel gazed seriously at Amber.

"No," Amber said without hesitation, a pitiful smile on her face. "I live and die as Mr. Jameson's puppet."

Axel slowly straightened up, the desire in his eyes fading away. He unbuttoned two buttons on his shirt and said, "I understand now. In that case, let's just get on with things."

"What... things?" Amber hadn't yet caught up with Axel's pace.

"Well, we're alone in a hotel room late at night. What things do you think we could do? Play cards?" Axel's gaze was cold, with no trace of tenderness in them anymore. "Do you want to shower first or should I? Or should we shower together?"

Amber closed her eyes and shook her head. "I'll go now and not trouble you further."

She then turned to leave. But Axel grabbed her by the waist, pulling her back to him. "What is it? Are you upset? How can we sleep together if we don't clean up?"

"I don't have the right to be upset," Amber said bitterly. "Do you really want to sleep with a woman like me, Mr. Whitaker? I'll never be fully clean no matter how many times I bathe myself."

Axel smiled lightly and said, "I know exactly what kind of woman you are. Haven't I proven that I don't care given I've taken you out of there?"

"But I care!" Amber yelled, unable to hold back anymore.

Axel was taken aback.

Realizing she'd slipped up, she quickly composed herself. "If you're concerned about me, then please don't ask this of me anymore tonight. You can think of it as repaying me for helping you and Ms. Alyssa last time."

Axel was the most wonderful person Amber had ever met in her downtrodden life. She was incredibly fond of Axel, which was why she didn't want him to be ruined by someone as terrible as her.

Amber wanted their relationship to stay clear of all this.

Axel seemed somewhat troubled by Amber's insistence to leave. His hand tightened around her waist as he said softly, "Fine, don't shower then. Stay the night and get some rest. It's late."

Amber's plan to stay awake the entire night failed when she fell asleep.

Axel, however, stared fixedly at the ceiling, not sleepy in the slightest bit.
