His words made Mirabel's heart make a triple skip, and that's when she realized they never used protection for the first time. Mirabel became momentarily lost for seconds but jerked back to her senses when she heard sounds like Axel getting up from the bed. "Sorry for my mistake," he said and scratched his dark hair as he tried to get up, and for the first time since they met Mirabel saw a lost look on his face. "I don't mind" Mirabel muttered almost in a whisper but Axel heard her clearly, he looked In her direction and silence ensued in the room for a few seconds as they only stared at each other. Axel could not explain exactly how he felt right now. He climbed back on the bed and it didn't take a millisecond before their lips met once again, not gentle anymore but rather rough as they desired each other. "Thank you, Mira" Axel mumbled on her lips as they kissed, he gently pushed her to the bed and she lowered herself as she succumbed to the kiss. Mirabel had her eyes closed wh

***ARION After a long night, morning finally came, Mirabel walked out of the room with her bag in her hand, they were leaving today, this morning, and she was already prepared. They had their breakfast already and Axel was waiting for her outside the villa, they would leave in his private jet which would take off a few minutes from now. Mirabel walked out of the villa and saw Axel outside conversing with his assistant, Marcel, who stood beside him. Hearing the footsteps, Axel looked up and glanced at where Mirabel now stood, he walked up to her with a smile on his face which Mirabel wasn't still used to, but anyways, she smiled back. "We would come back another time but for now we need to return," said Axel, and Mirabel nodded to him. In all honesty, she would have loved it if they could stay back for a while but that was nearly impossible as they have other things to do. The last two days were like a full long week to her and she wished it could last longer. "I'm going out. Mar

After a two hours journey, the jet finally landed in Axel's mansion. Axel came down with Mirabel in his arms sleeping, she slept late last night and had to wake up early this morning which was why she was tired and worn out. Axel entered the mansion and went straight to their room. Amela, the maid trailed behind him with Mirabel's bag. Axel gently lay Mirabel on the bed "Welcome back, Young master" Amela greeted as she dropped the bag in the bedroom. Axel nodded his head before the maid left the room, Axel removed his suit and then his tie, he was about to leave the bedroom and head to the sitting room cause he had something to work on with his assistant but he heard a sound on the bed which had him glance in that direction. Mirabel who had been sleeping for a while now woke up and rubbed her hands on her sleepy eyes wondering how she had slept off on the jet. She looked around the room and saw Axel at the door staring at her "How long was I asleep?" she asked with a yawn as she g

Back in Axel's mansion, they stared at each other for a while before Axel opened up "It was" he said shortly, there was no need to hide it from her since she would end up finding out about it and also the Corvin clan which appeared she was yet to have a hint of, for now. Mirabel pursed her lips, as if speechless as to what to say next, she seemed calm hearing this, because she always had the feeling that it didn't just happen. She never mentioned it to anyone because she had no point to prove her instinctual thoughts, but no matter how hard she tried to push away the feeling, it always came back. "You know who?" she asked in a very calm tone before she rested her head back on Axel's shoulders to hide the tear that was forming in her eyes and threatening to fall out. "For now, not sure," Axel said before giving her a slight peck on her head "Sorry for digging back into it without your consent, it seemed to be tied to my father but I don't know how or why that's another reason why I a

"Hey! Have something to work on, and might not arrive home today, but if I come it would be late at night" Axel's husky sweet voice rang into Mirabel's ear as she brought the phone up after answering it. "Umm..." Mirabel didn't know what to say to this, cause this was probably the first time he was calling to inform her of things like this, and although it sounded strange, it was still very sweet and considerate of him "Ok then, goodbye" she said calmly. "Mn," Axel said before he ended the call. Dave, Marcel, and John stood in front of him with blank faces while Axel had his back resting on his black range rover. "Marcel, stay behind in case anything arises, John you also. We need someone that can give us the needed information from here. Dave and I would meet Lucas at the town" Axel informed his men who nodded with an "Ok, Sir" Axel would have preferred that Lucas get the man and bring him here, but as much as the idea would sound easier and better, the last thing he wanted was t
