The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never by Gilbert Soysal

Bryson, standing tall and imposing, matched Charlie in height but outmatched him in presence.

His face, void of any emotion, now displayed a clear look of disdain.

“Didn’t you hear what my friend just said? Are you looking for trouble?”

His presence was intimidating, filling the air with tension.

His hands, clenched into fists, suggested that with just a bit more force, Charlie’s neck could be in serious danger.

Feeling the deadly intent and the pain gripping his neck, Charlie quickly raised his hands in a gesture of peace.

“Let’s not make this worse.

Charlie’s plea might seem like a cry for mercy, but smart folks knew he was actually throwing down a threat.

If Bryson laid a finger on him, chances were Bryson wouldn’t leave Jade Paradise without a few bruises.

The problem was, Bryson was the last person who would cave to such tactics.

“Guess we’ll find out,” Bryson said, tightening his grip on Charlie’s neck like it was no big deal.

Feeling the pressure, Charlie blurted out, “Hey! We messed up breaking in, but you don’t have to get your hands dirty over it!”
