All Chapters of The Devil behind me: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

"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

*****STUART'S MANSION Mirabel woke up early, she looked around the room but couldn't find Axel, so she stood up from the bed and went into the bathroom to brush her teeth and rinse her face. She didn't take long in the bathroom before she walked out with a towel in her hands which she was using to wipe the water from her face. She packed her hair into a ponytail before she ambled her way out of the bedroom. As she went down the stairs, she saw Axel's mother walking in her direction. "Good morning ma'am," Mirabel said with the utmost respect. "Oh, good morning dear, I was heading to your room. Take your shower and come for breakfast" Reina said to Mirabel with a smile. "Ok, m..." Mirabel wanted to say but was cut short as she heard Axel's mother suddenly said "Just call me mother" Reina uttered in a gentle tone to her, she had already accepted the young lady for her son when she met her yesterday, that was how certain she was of her son's decision. "Ok Mother," Mirabel said befo

***** Axel left the house a while ago to meet up with Marcel at the office, they had some issues that he had to fix before he travels out for his business trip. When he arrived back home, he went straight to his room but he didn't see her there nor did he hear any sounds from the bathroom, which would have indicated that she might be there. "Mirabel" he called out her name as he went into the walk-in closet to check if she was there but she was not, Axel came out of his room and went down the stairs, he checked the dining, but still no, she wasn't there. He went outside the house, there was one place where she could be, where he hadn't checked yet, and it was the flower garden. Axel walked toward the flower garden with his usual cool demeanor, and finally, she was there, but everything took a drastic change as his face became dark when he saw Martins with her there, and that too holding her hands. "LET HER GO!" Axel's loud voice thundered which made Mirabel and Martins look in that

Huh? Troy? what was he doing here?' Mirabel wondered as she saw him standing a few inches away. After his grandfather's strict punishment, Troy decided to come to work today, not like he had another choice though. Staying alone in an office was boring him, so he decided to check out the new actors and actresses. As he stood at the door with Mrs. Jennie beside him, his gaze traveled around the new faces. A smile crept on his face "Hmm, good. I'm seeing a lot of beautiful faces here" he said to Mrs. Jennie "Oh, and handsome faces, also" he added. He didn't seem to have seen Mirabel, who was currently hiding behind Charlotte's back, with her gaze down, so that he doesn't see her. "Ok then" she heard Troy's voice as he made a turn and walked out of the hall. "Phew" Mirabel couldn't help but breathe out as he left, she sat down on her chair. "Hey, what's up with you?" Charlotte asked as she noticed how Mirabel had panicked a while ago. "Nothing really, I'm good. Umm, wait... is that

"Hm?" Axel raised a brow in confusion when he heard her words, wasn't she the one refusing strongly at first, then why the sudden change of plans? "Let's get married," Mirabel said once again because she thought Axel didn't hear her at first. "You are sure?" Axel inquired still standing, with his gaze on Mirabel's "Yes, I'm sure," Mirabel said in certainty, honestly she doesn't know why she suddenly made such a decision but hearing the news about Steve's marriage earlier was part of the things that pushed her into this. She wanted to move on and forget about him already, and the only way she could do that was to give herself to the man standing in front of her right now. "You won't change your decision later on?" Axel asked "Yes, I won't," Mirabel said in determination. "I didn't plan on canceling it at first," Axel said to Mirabel before he went into the walk-in closet to change into his pajamas. Mirabel was left dumbstruck when she heard what he said. 'He didn't plan on canc
