COUNTRY B*** Mirabel followed Quinn gently as she was led to a room, she had spent hours being toured around the place by Samael, who went on telling her the history of the clan, in all honesty, she didn't find herself interested in any of the clan's rules, she wasn't at all amazed, but the history intrigued her. She recalled the words he had straightly said to her. "You shouldn't get involved with Axel, he isn't worthy of you, you have the blood of the Corvin's clan running through you, and as a female descendant, you are meant to marry a member of the clan and not outside," he had strictly warned. They walked a few more feet and after a while, they approached a room in the corridor, Quinn brought out a key and unlocked the door before she led Mirabel inside the large bedroom. Mirabel looked around the large bedroom, it had a medium-sized bed in the middle, a closet on the right end of the room, and a table with a chair on the other edge, there was also a shoe rack which was just
Charlotte arrived at a hotel and took her box in, she had enough money to lodge in a hotel for a month or more, and she intended to stay there for now, she sauntered into the GLAMOUR hotel, one of the most luxurious hotels in the country. She left her father's house cause she was tired of him, but that doesn't mean she would suffer through her stay out of the mansion. "Thank you," she said to the receptionist who handed out her room key to her and gave her a note which had directions to the big hotel. "Always at your service, Ma'am, your room number is 101A, on the second floor, hope you enjoy your stay with us at GLAMOUR Hotels," the beautiful receptionist said to her with a bright smile. With a nod and a small smile on her lips, Charlotte drew her box out and made her way to the elevator, with the tire of her box making a smooth sound as it moved, she went into the elevator and pressed the number 'plus 2' which took her up. A few minutes later, it stopped, she came out of the ele
The year was almost coming to an end, it was already November, exactly a month after Mirabel left Country A and started a new life in Country B. A month after which Axel had since been unconscious, exceeding the expected number of days he was meant to wake up. A month after which Charlotte had been living at a hotel, although she was being charged a lot, it was all worth it, at least she had peace in her life which she never knew she could have, her father wasn't there to throw words at her nor was Joanne, her stepmom, they didn't even bother to communicate with her at all for the last few weeks, and she couldn't be happier. It was also a month after which Troy had been checking up on his brother at the hospital every day after work. Troy had to take over the responsibility of Gold Fox and Imperial since his brother wasn't there. Grandfather took pity on Troy two weeks ago, after seeing how hard he was working, the old master decided to finally unfreeze his account. The Stuart hous
The hospital room was pin-drop silent, no one spoke a thing, Troy stood beside his brother but he didn't dare to take a peek at what Axel might be reading, Stephen stood calmly at the other side of the bed, he rubbed his palm on his forehead and released a breath before he took a glance at Sofia who stood by the door, her back to the wall. Sofia would be lying if she said she wasn't infuriated and jealous, the first person he asks of after waking up is Mirabel, she wasn't here for the past month, and they never saw her drop by the hospital to check up on him, yet he asks of her at first instance, what more could make her boil and jealous? She angrily walked out of the room a few minutes later. Axel sat down on the bed, his rooted gaze was on the paper which he held in his right hand. His emotions switched fast like a rollercoaster, from anger to fear and then to confusion.******* 'I don't... No, I never felt anything for you, no one would love being manipulated into anything and
Axel sat down alone in the hospital room, staring out through the window, the words she had written in the letter still lingered in his mind, he was bothered and wondering if that was what she thought about him. Releasing a sigh, he stood up from the chair and walked to the bed, dressed in the hospital gown which he didn't like, he had to leave the place today no matter what. He sat down on the bed and it was at this moment heard the sound of his phone ringing, Marcel had brought the phone when he came around. He picked it up from the table and answered it, after seeing who the caller was. "Yes?" "We found her boss," John's voice said from the other side. Before Axel could say a thing, the door to his room was abruptly opened from outside, and with a frown, he glanced in that direction "Later" he said to John and disconnected the call. He saw his mother standing at the door, with teary eyes, but she wasn't alone, Axel squinted his eyes at the lady beside his mother, her face look
Axel buttoned up the black shirt he was wearing, he was preparing to leave the hospital and right now, he was wearing the shirt that Marcel had brought from his house. He had wanted to leave the hospital as early as 6 PM, but grandfather had stubbornly persisted that he should stay for a while longer in case of anything. "What's the time now?" he asked Marcel who stood by the door. Axel used his hands to brush his black soft hair to the back, he had worn his clothes already and was about to leave. "It's 10:23, sir" Marcel replied "Let's stop by Imperial on our way, I need to check something," Axel said and made his way to the door. "Ok, sir" Before Axel could get to the door, it was opened from outside and Stephen walked in "I wouldn't have let you leave so soon, I wonder why you stubbornly want to leave, but either way, take this after every meal, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, make sure you don't skip any of your means for a quick recovery. And try as much as possible to stay fa
Stephen became mute for a while, completely forgetting that he came here to save her, he heard a sniff from the lady still holding him tightly, before he came back to his senses, and brought up his right hand to hers which was wrapped around his waist from the back. Aaron stared at the two people in front of him "You liar!" he shouted, "You don't have a boyfriend, I've been stalking you for over two weeks now and I've never seen you with anyone" he said. Arabella's breath hitched, if there was something anyone out there would fear just like her right now, it was being stalked, and that too for over two weeks, how come she never realized? Stephen seethed his tongue when he heard what the man on the floor said. "Get the f*ck out of here so I can complete what I started," Aaron said, feeling his head throb. Stephen brought down Arabella's hand by removing it from his waist, he handed out his phone light to her before he strolled to the man laying on the floor. Arabella immediately sw
Arabella moaned as she straddled him, she didn't want to pull out yet but if they didn't do that now, it might be too late to stop later. Stephen released her and she rested her head on his chest, trying to catch her breathing, she tried to stand up but Stephen didn't move his hand from her back, restraining her. She moved her hands to her back to remove his but he ordered "Don't" She stopped trying as she heard his words. Stephen had his eyes closed and they both became silent for a while. Arabella now had her head laying on his chest, her legs trapped between his. They stayed like that for several minutes before he finally released her. Arabella sat down upright, she used her right hand to move her hair covering her face to the back. She insinuated the kiss and right now she didn't know what to do. Stephen cleared his throat and stood up, he picked the first aid box from the table and returned it to the closet where he always kept it, he turned around again and saw her still si
