Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down

Matt Snider walked in and surveyed the mess within the house, his face devoid of any surprised expression. He simply told Karen and Amber to clean it up.

As expected of their military training, they did a complete makeover of the room within a span of fifteen minutes and left promptly.

Now the two of them remained in the room. He slowly approached Winona, his movements slow and languid. Winona felt his overbearing aura and retreated until her back touched the wall.

Matt cornered her between the wall and his body. Lifting her chin with his hand, he said, “I’m afraid you might feel some discomfort for quite a while. Once the war is over, I’ll take you back to Country C. We’ll hold another wedding over there, a grand one.”

Nonetheless, Winona still felt agitated. She snapped back, her face flushed with emotions, “Matt, why are you messing up my life!”

If it weren’t for him, she would have been the dignified and gentle Mrs. Larson. In that case, she could take good care of Aileen.

“Hahaha, you really want to marry Benjamin Larson? Everyone in Country C knows about the Larson family. You’ll only be a captive kitten, imprisoned and confined inside the house. Is this the life you want? Winona, don’t be stupid. You and I are the same, we’re both ambitious, we both want more!”

Matt flirtatiously massaged her chest, rubbing his hand over where her heart is with a light touch.

She pushed him away angrily, “That’s none of your business! It has nothing to do with you!”

Unperturbed, he said, “Of course it is my business. We’re husband and wife now, fated to be together even in death. Besides, whatever Benjamin can offer you, I can as well; whatever Benjamin can’t offer you, I definitely can.”

Winona knew that Matt was backed by his strong family connections. He had become an general at a young age in Country C. Overall, he is indeed better than Benjamin, but this man is too dangerous. She was unable to get a fix on him, much less even control or influence him.

So she sneered, “So by your logic, I actually got the better deal?”

She really couldn’t find the reason why Matt was indispensable to her. Perhaps he really just wanted a woman to help resolve his relationship-related issues. After all, a man of his caliber attracts all sorts of female attention.

Winona’s gaze fell upon the gun beside Matt’s waist. Her mind raced and she suddenly thought of a way to escape. She smiled.
