After waking up from the car accident, I could see a death countdown right above everyone's head. The hot dog vendor on the street had 30 years left, and my neighbor had 50. But my billionaire fiancé, Wayne Todd, who had just proposed to me, had a glaring five seconds left. I freaked out, pushed him aside, and yelled, "There's a bomb. Run!" But nothing happened. Five seconds went by. The timer hit zero, and then, just like that, it jumped right back to five seconds. I didn't buy it. Every time I got close to him, the countdown would go haywire, ticking down like crazy. Later, I realized that whenever he had murderous intent toward me, the countdown would drop. But whenever he felt something for me, the countdown would go up. To survive, I had to become a full-on flirting maniac, bombarding Wayne with corny lines, cringe-worthy compliments, and smothering him with hugs and kisses every day. Until one day, the time above his head transformed into endless.
