Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Carol clutched her cardigan with shaking hands, her heart pounding in the aftermath of the bloody spectacle that unfolded before

Felix, her boyfriend, had been brutal and swift, knocking the assailant unconscious with a few well-placed punches before turning

Pain flashed across Felix's face as he frowned and kicked away the man who had thrown the rock.

She had seen Felix in fights before, where he always seemed in control, but tonight he seemed desperate.

crack.
