The Devil behind me Chapter 44
Stephen's gaze traveled across the lady he saved, her eyes were still shut tight. She had blonde curly hair locks, her lips were painted with a light shade of red color which adorned her beauty more. After a while, she gently opened her eyes and they met Stephen's deep stare. Stephen gulped down, wow... She was a hell of a beauty with her watery-like blue-colored eyes. His gaze traveled down a little, her soft body pressing him, he gazed down at her front side which was pressing against him and showing a little because of their position. Arabella's eyes widened as she saw how the young man gazed down at her bust "PERVERT!" she screamed out as she suddenly pushed him off her. The sudden action made her lose her footing because of the type of dress and heels she wore. She loosed her balance and was about to fall again when the young man immediately grabbed her hands and pulled her away from the side of the pool where she stood. Stephen was surprised when she suddenly pushed him off a

'Oh f*ck... the same blonde arrogant curly hair locks?' Stephen thought inwardly as Arabella sauntered her way to where they stood. Arabella's gaze met Stephen's own and she squinted her eyes 'Can this day get any worse?' "Mom, can I leave now?" Arabella said as she stood beside her mother. Arabella's mom didn't respond to her as she went on an introduce her "This is Arabella, my daughter" Arabella heard her mother say, she turned around to the man and woman her mother was talking to "Good day, sir, ma" she said greeting them with a bright smile. "Good day, dear. Well, I must say, you have a very attractive daughter here" Stephen's father said which resulted in laughter between the three parents. They were surely heading somewhere with this conversation. "Mom, can I go now?" Arabella said, she was tired and wanted to pull out from this dress, it was tiring her out walking on these heels and clothes. "No. And that's final, I'm not changing my decision," Her mother said sternly i

****** Stephen walked to where Axel stood, he glanced at Martins who had a grin on his face as usual, but he didn't care. The gaze on Stephen's face only became serious with no hint of any emotion. Martins glanced at the duo that he stood with before he walked away "See you later with my sister-in-law, bro" he said in a mischievous tone. All the members of the family would meet up later together after the occasion, that's why he said see you later. Stephen glanced in the direction that Martins followed till he could no longer be seen "Oh geez... He surely has something up his sleeves as usual" Stephen said, Martins was always going about with mischiefs at the back of his hands. Axel didn't say a thing, he also had the same thoughts as Stephen, but either way, he didn't care about whatever Martins was up to. "Bro" they suddenly heard Troy's voice as he sauntered his way to where they stood "What did that creep of a Martins say again," he asked, Troy also saw Martins here a while ag

The car was silent all through, Arabella wasn't throwing any tantrums nor was she making any sound, after a long while, Stephen glanced at her side as he said "Where next? you've been silent since, aren't you giving me directions?" Stephen's voice resounded through the car. He was surprised she wasn't saying anything at all ever since the ride started, not even telling him where to follow. He turned his head to glance at her and suddenly the car abruptly came to a stop. Stephen could not help but say "What the... are you sleeping?" he asked as he saw her closed eyes, with her head almost dangling around. 'Was she worn out already because of the effect of the wine she drank?' Stephen thought "Would you please wake up, I have to head somewhere after dropping you off" Stephen said to the sleeping Arabella as he gently tapped on her shoulders but unfortunately for him, he got no response from Arabella who was already far gone. "Oh geez..." Stephen said as he hit his hands on his forehea

Axel spent a few minutes in the bathroom before he came out, his hair was soaked wet. He seemed to have washed it while having his bath. He came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist while another towel was in his hands which he was using to wipe off the water from his hair. Water was dripping down his skin making him look hot and sexy. As Axel walked out of the bathroom, he saw Mirabel standing by the window side and looking outside, she seemed to be deeply concentrated on whatever she was seeing, cause didn't even turn around or move when she heard the sound of the bathroom door. Mirabel who was focused on the flower garden outside didn't budge at all, the view was so beautiful and she could see it from here, although it was nightfall already yet she could still see it because of the large lamps used in surrounding the garden, adding to Its night beauty. Mirabel's lips curved into a beautiful smile at the sight, she had always loved flowers to the extent that sh

"Who is she? and why is she here?" his loud voice rang out in the dining room. Oh Oh... Mirabel almost jerked up from her seat as she heard the loud voice, what in the world... why the sudden shout? "Oh... Dad. I forgot you weren't informed about it" Martins said with a cunning smirk directed in Axel's direction, but Axel wasn't even glancing at him as he kept on eating. "Informed about what?" Vince asked, he was having a bad feeling about all this which was why he suddenly shouted. He honestly didn't notice the lady sitting beside Axel when he came in because he walked into the dining hall earlier in a rush. Reina and Troy stopped eating as their gazes moved around. Mirabel wasn't eating also out of fear, but Axel and the old master kept on eating seemingly without care at the drama unfolding. "She is Axel's fiancee, didn't you know about it?" Martins asked, with his stare now at his father, who looked bewildered. "What? Fiancee? since when?" Vince asked in shock, the last thin

"Are you sure this would work?" Vince asked Martins after hearing out what he had to say. "Of course dad, I'm certain it would work, it won't hurt to try, Axel would be forced to accept Sofia even by grandfather, if and only if she is carrying an heir," Martins said in certainty as they still sat at the dining table together. "Hmm..." Vince said and rested his back on the chair he sat on. "Ok... what next?" he asked Martins who had a cunning smirk on his face******* Troy was on his way to his bedroom when suddenly he heard a voice from nowhere that almost made him jerk out of his wits. "The old master is requesting your presence" Butler Luke who came out of nowhere said. "Who? Me? What did I do, I was silent all through the dinner" Troy said in surprise, he didn't do anything wrong so why would grandfather request for him? "He didn't say, he just wants you in his study right away," Butler Luke said before walking away and heading to the study. Troy stood there for a while try

"I'm not your type?" he asked as they both tried to catch their breaths "I just... I just said so"... " You what?" Axel's deep voice asked as he released her hands which were bound together by him above her head, his hands went down and buttoned up her shirt for her with his head still resting on the shallow path of her neck. Mirabel's eyes were closed as she tried to catch her breath "I just said so out of frustration" She took a deep breath before she answered his question. "I'll think of a way out," Axel said as he got up from the bed before he strolled into the bathroom. Mirabel was left all alone In bed, she remembered what happened and she suddenly felt a shiver run down her spine. The way he had aggressively kissed her. She lay on the bed for a while before she got up and went to where the mirror in the bedroom stood, her shirt was already buttoned up, but she could see the hickey signs on her neck. 'Oh geez' she gazed at the love bites before walking to the bed and lying
