The Devil behind me Chapter 87
Days went by and weeks ran out, and it was finally the last day of filming, it was on the 19th of the month already. Mirabel and the crew members were getting ready to shoot the last scene which involved the burying of Lady Penelope and Patricia. Mirabel sat down on a chair glancing around the place as they all waited for the director's voice to commence. "I feel like this filming ended too fast, I didn't even enjoy myself that much" Mirabel heard Leon utter from nowhere as he came to stand by her side. Hearing his words, she rose her head to the side and rolled her eyes at him, to her, the shooting for this movie felt like it took too much time "No comment on that" she said to Leon and turned her gaze elsewhere. It landed on senior Ace. As usual, he sat down alone far from the others 'Seems like he has no friends and also hates noise' Mirabel thought because for the past few weeks, they'd all spent together, she noticed that he always liked staying alone far from others and she h

Mirabel who was sleeping soundly in her hotel room was suddenly woken up by the disturbing sound from her phone as someone was calling repeatedly. She groggily picked up the phone from the bedside table and answered without checking who was calling. "Hello?" "I reserved a seat for you, aren't you coming again?" Leon's voice resounded from the other end of the call. It was at this moment that Mirabel realized she had been sleeping for hours as the time was already 9:46 PM. "Umm, when is it finishing?" asked Mirabel as she stood up from the bed with the phone to her ear. "Probably by ten" Leon answered. "Oh, well then, there is no need for me to come again" she reasoned with him. "The Director inquired about you earlier " Leon informed. "Just tell them I'm sick and can't make it" "Ok, will do. Goodbye," Leon said before the call ended. Mirabel was still tired, so she dropped her phone on the table and lay back on the bed, slowly dozing off. ******* NEXT DAY, MORNING All the

In a silent dark room, Mirabel who had been sleeping for hours finally opened her eyes, "Mmh mmh" she made mumbling sounds as she woke up in an unfamiliar place, her mouth was tied to not enable her from screaming for help. This wasn't the hotel room, so where is this? She was tied to a pole and was standing on her feet which were also tightened. Her panic breathing increased as she looked around the room but couldn't see a thing. Mirabel felt like crying, where was she? the last she remembered was laying back on the bed to sleep but wait a minute... Mirabel closed her eyes as she tried to remember what had transpired last. ****EARLIER*** She had woken up to the sound she was hearing in her hotel room, but when she stood up from the bed to check what it was, someone came out of nowhere, covered her nose with strong arms, and gripped her hard, she tried to escape from the tight grip but no, she was too weak for the person. She was held tightly behind her back, she couldn't make an

Axel carried Mirabel in his arms and took her outside, her hands were tightly wrapped around him. "Sir, the first man had escaped" Lucas reported to his boss who just came out with the young lady in his arms. Axel turned to face his brother who was just coming out from the room "Tell the team that Mirabel is okay and they can leave" Troy nodded as he heard his brother's words, and he immediately brought out his phone to make a call. "Don't allow the second man to escape, do whatever you have to do to make him spill out the name of the person who sent them," Axel told Lucas in a grim tone " Ok, sir" Axel hopped into the jet with Mirabel. A few minutes later they took off from there, everything was completely okay and silent for a moment till Mirabel who had been sitting gently on Axel's lap suddenly moved. "Axel" she whispered close to his ear. "Mm," he responded but Mirabel didn't say a thing after. How was she going to explain to him how she was feeling, her body was suddenly g

Axel carried Mirabel into the bathroom, Mirabel had her eyes closed, she was damn tired already but not sleeping, and the drug made her extremely needy till she felt sour. Her cheeks reddened like a ripened tomato as she remembered how she was screaming his name... Geez! Axel had filled in the tub already with warm water so he slowly dropped her inside before entering also. Axel had his back resting on the tub, while hers was resting on his chest. Her back was directed to his front. He wouldn't lie but having their naked bodies so close like this was driving him crazy, and he could feel his blood rushing down there again, but he had to shower her up since she was tired. So, pushing In his desperate desires, he took the soap and sponge and gently rubbed it on her body. Mirabel who had her eyes closed for a while now decided to open them as she felt his light scrubs on her skin. This was the first time she was seeing this side of him, he looked as if he was scared of hurting her. Mir

It was 3:23 AM on Saturday, Axel lay down on the bed with his gaze on the ceiling and his hands still wrapped around Mirabel, he couldn't sleep cause he had a lot on his mind and also because of his insomnia. After a few minutes he gently moved his hands from Mirabel without waking her up, he stood up from the bed, making sure she was covered with the duvet before he headed out of the room. Axel went into the study room inside the villa, he sat down on the chair, bringing out his phone to make a call. The call was answered on the second ring. "Hello, boss" Dave's voice echoed from the other end of the call. "How far have you gone on it?" Axel asked going straight to the reason he had called. "Sir, we found out about something which seemed suspicious. It appeared that the driver of the car which had clashed with the young madam's parents' car is still alive" Dave released a tip of info they've gotten. Axel took a deep breath, his eyes darkening a little as he heard the information

***SCOTT'S MANSION** Sofia was inside her bedroom raging as she was on a call with someone "I gave you guys a very simple assignment and yet you couldn't complete it, what makes you think I'll give you the remaining payment when your job isn't complete yet and that too when your second was caught" she said in anger. "I can complete it if you still want, young woman but you have to understand that it would take time," the man on the other side said in a pissed tone also, he was trying to run for his life and here this client was pouring out her anger on him. Hearing his words, Sofia paused for a little before she said "I'll pay you the money, but I don't need your service again cause I can't trust you any longer. So, recommend someone else for me" She said trying to make a wise bargain. "And no matter what, even if you end up getting caught like your friend you better not mention my name" she let out as a thought hit her. The last thing she wanted was for Axel to find out she had a

"I should be asking you that question, not you. What are you going here Charlotte" Desmond asked as he dropped the glass he was holding on the tray of the waiter that passed. Before giving him an answer which was stuck to her throat, Charlotte looked down at her red shirt which he had mistakenly spilled a drink on, it wasn't that visible and it was only a little of his drink that had splashed on her "Give me a minute, I'll be right back" she said and went in the direction of the washroom. She washed her hands and then her face before taking a napkin, soaking it a little, and wiping off the drink from her shirt. A few minutes later, she walked out and went back to meet Desmond who was still standing in the same position she had left him. Charlotte looked at her long-time friend from childhood, it's been six years since she last saw him because his family had moved out of the city, and of all places, they could clash with each other, it ended up being at a bar. His blonde hair was r

The Devil behind me EPILOGUE
FOUR YEARS LATER*** Axel's mansion was lively with kids playing around as the sun shone its light across the fields. Amora and Arden who were now seven years old, they sat down in the garden with Mabel as they played on the grass in the garden. Amora and Mabel's hair was packed into two ponytails, Amora had taken her father's black shiny hair, while Arden's hair was brown, falling to his forehead and covering it. Mabel on the other hand, had taken her mother's blonde hair, the kids played around together, under the loving gazes of their fathers who sat down on chairs facing the kids. "Who would have thought my silent little Mabel would end up becoming a chaotic little princess" Troy sighed. "A silent nature doesn't even fit her, to begin with, her father is so noisy while her mother is cheerful, I think her new behavior stemmed from you both" Stephen chipped in as he sat beside Troy, sipping from the cup of wine in his hand and occasionally staring at where the ladies sat down c
The Devil behind me THE WEDDING
THREE YEARS LATER*** The sun was shining brightly in the sky, casting a warm glow over the beautiful outdoor wedding venue. A road of white chairs was neatly arranged on either side of a grassy aisle, leading up to an elegant white archway adorned with delicate flowers of greenery. The soft staring of classical music filled the air. As the guests eagerly awaited the bride's arrival, Axel stood nervously at the end of the aisle, his heart racing as he prepared to see Mirabel for the first time in her wedding dress. Beside him stood a young boy who looked beyond stunning, with a calm aura around him, dressed in a miniature version of his father's tuxedo, standing proudly as one of the groomsmen. Stephen stood with Axel trying to claim his friend down, and beside him was Martin. And then, finally, they heard light footsteps as someone walked in, a young baby girl three years old, walked down the aisle with a small basket of flowers in her hand, her smile was so bright that the guest

Six Months Later. Mirabel sat down in the garden taking in a breath of air, as she ate some fruits, her baby bump was now super obvious cause she was already nine months gone, her phone which was on the table rang out loud, and she picked it up and check the caller ID, smiling, she answered the call and moved the phone to her ear. "Hey! Quinn, how are you doing?" "Mira! I'm good, how's the baby?" Quinn asked, her words made Mirabel gently rub her baby bump and the baby respond with a kick, an action that the child does once in a while. "Fine," she said with a smile. "That's good. I'm coming to Country A in a few days with my father, he insists on meeting Axel's family" Quinn said. "Ok, we'll make preparations for it" They talked for the next few minutes before the call came to an end. The gates of the mansion were opened and a car drove in, pulling to a stop when it reached the parking lot, Axel came down from the car and walked over to where Mirabel sat in the garden, a bright

Troy held her closely as her body pressed onto his, and the tension in the room increased. His eyes widened when Charlotte brushed her thighs to his member who was already standing hard. He didn't need anyone to tell him that he had also been drugged, he just wasn't sure how it had happened. He groaned as the place in between her legs slightly brushed through his member, he was only wearing a towel. He held her waist tightly as his body heated up, holding her waist, he stood up with her, their lips still sealed, he led her to the bed, dropping her on it, Charlotte looked up at him, she didn't know what was wrong with her, but he was the only one she could give in to. Her body was heating up and she needed him. "I'm so sorry, but I don't think this is right, you might end up hating me when you realize what happened tomorrow. I'll look for another way to help you, the last thing I want is for you to stay away from me. Let me think of something else" he said and was about to take a t

As the clip reached its climax, the music swelled to a fever pitch. The woman burst into a run, her pursuers hot on their heels. Just when it seemed that all was lost, she stumbled and fell, her body hitting the pavement with a sickening thud. The screen faded to black, leaving the crowd in stunned silence, for a moment, no one moved or spoke, the impact of the drama they had just witnessed lingered in the air. Slowly, the lights in the hall began to brighten, and the crowd began to stir. As the realization of the drama's impact set in, the murmurs turned into a wave of thunderous applause that echoed through the hall. The applause was loud and sustained as the crowd showed their appreciation for the performance and expertly crafted storytelling that had been brought to life on the screen before them. The waitress who had been standing by the door walked into the hall as the place brightened up. She went up straight to the table where the trio sat. She handed out the tray to the

Sofia paced around the corridor, at the far end of it, she brought out her phone and dialed a number, it was answered on the first ring. "Hello, Miss" the female voice from the other end greeted. Without returning the greeting, Sofia went straight to the point of the call "I don't care how you are going to do it, all I want you to do is slip the drug in a drink and hand it to him. If at all you fail to do this, you would regret it, and if you succeed, I'll award you with a million bucks" "Remember. No matter what happens at the end of the day, you must never call my name if you are caught. Deal?" Long silence from the other end "Ok, Ms. It's a deal, I'll do it. When would I get the money?" the waitress asked. "After you hand him the drink, I'll send the money" "Ok," the call came to an end. Sofia had a sly grin on he face, this was just her first plan and for some reason, she feels like she would get what she was here for. Sofia wasn't sure yet how she was going to put her firs

***NEXT DAY*** The sun shone its light brightly across the main city of Country A, giving it a tint of a jolly mood, it was finally the day for IMPERIAL'S end-of-year celebration and GoldFox's third anniversary. Axel was in his bedroom getting dressed up with Mirabel also, her belly protruding a little, it was a little obvious that she was pregnant. She picked out a red dress that Axel had bought for her, and she wore the dress "Axel," she called out gently as he was fitting on his leather shoes, his hair brushed to the back giving him a charming look. "Please help me zip it up," she said turning her back to him, Axel stood up from the couch, walked closer to her, and pulled the zipper up with a broad smile on his face. Mirabel looked at herself in the mirror, a lovely smile on her face. The dress was beautiful, it was finished with delicate details that add to its elegance. The bodice is adorned with intricate lace appliques that gave it a touch of femininity, and the hemline is

Weeks Later**** The day was bright with a lovely scent in the atmosphere. It was a Monday Morning, around 10 AM, a day before the end-of-year celebration. Mirabel was sitting down in the living room, peeling oranges and taking them, Arabella who had come to visit her was also there as they conversed, sitting on the couch, scrolling through her phone as she drank from the orange juice on the table. Mirabel stops at a post from a fan account as she noticed something. Her brows creased as she read the caption: "The side character slayed, in the latest episode of THE DUKE'S LADY, can't wait to see more of her!" Mirabel was surprised but she still sat down, trying to keep her cool. The Drama she played role in Gold Fox was DUKE'S LADY. She read other further posts to have an understanding of what was going on. "What's wrong?" Arabella asked as she noticed Mirabel's change in expression. "Wait... I'm coming" Suddenly, Mirabel's phone rang, interrupting her thoughts, taking the p

A Week Later**** It was the last week of November, and after a few days, Mirabel was finally discharged from the hospital, her gaze fell on Axel, he had been there ever since, not leaving the hospital, he slept in the hospital, worked from the hospital, the only time he left was whenever he wanted to go home and take his bath and also to bring her meals for her. She was touched. She wasn't even sure if he had an ounce of sleep. Before she goes to bed, he was awake to watch her, and by the time she woke up, he was always there, staring lovingly at her. Axel led her out of the hospital, his white sleeved shirt was tucked into his black pants, unlike every other day, he wasn't wearing a suit today, their palms held in a firm grasp as they made their way to his car, followed by Dave, Lucas, and John. Marcel was in the company, busy finalizing the last preparations for the end-of-year celebration. Axel opened the passenger door for Mirabel and she entered, under the gentle gaze of A
