Stefan pov.I stared at Mabel as I kept on dancing with her. She was just so beautiful tonight and I could see that she wasn't comfortable with the way I was holding her."Are you okay?" I asked her though I know she wasn't. She was not even staring me in the first place."Yeah, I'm fine." She said and showed me her most beautiful fake smile before staring at everywhere but me, which got me chuckling. She didn't know how to fake anything, she always manages to give herself away.I can't believe that I was impatiently waiting to see her when she haven't arrived with her friends, I just wanted to see how she would dress and what she would wear, because the money she used to buy herself and her friends the things they needed was a real kind of change to me, a very small amount, but when she arrived and I stared at her, I can't deny the fact that she took my breath away and all I want was a chance to stare at her upclose.When I asked for the dance, I know that she would reject my offer,
Mabel pov.I had my eyes shut speechlessly as Stefan was doing his thing, he was giving my stomach a light massage which I was silently enjoying to the extent that I wish I could be seeing my period everyday, but who am I kidding? I will be the only one that will feel the pains especially when Stefan will not be around."Are you sleeping?" I heard Stefan asked and I opened my eyes."No.""How is it? Still very painful?" He questioned, not stopping his magic."No, the pain has drastically reduce and I wonder what your hands are made up of." I told him in a whisper and yawned.He chuckled, "I can see that the sleep was calling."I don't remember myself replying to him again because I slept off._______________When I woke up the next morning, Stefan was gone and I saw a letter neatly folded beside me on the bed."Hey Mabel, I have to resume my work very early today and I have to go before you wake up. Do take care of yourself and if you need to buy anything, do so with the card with you
Please am sorry, This is the chapter before the other one I uploaded. After this chapter you read the previous one I posted. It was a mistake.Stefan's pov.Just as I said, I prevented myself from getting drunk. I picked a plate of soup from the varieties on the table and gave it to Mabel."You can't just sit here without taking anything. Here, I will order a bar attendant to bring you a soft drink. Which one do you want?" I asked her as I crouched to her level on the seat."I'm okay." She said, but I raised my brows at her, "Anyone is fine." She said quickly and I chuckled.I was standing from her but I got pulled up, looking at the person that pulled me, I saw Owen. "What?" I asked him."Leave the lady alone. Allow her to breath and enjoy your night, work starts tomorrow remember?" He said."Yes, and I won't have much time for her again. Let me be, okay?" I left his front but I could hear his chuckles even with the loud music. I don't know what his problem was and I didn't even both
Stefan pov.I paced around the sitting room as I waited impatiently for Mabel. It was already 9:50pm and she hasn't arrived and she wasn't picking her calls. I had called Owen and George who helped me to call her friends to ask about her whereabouts but her friends said she left their place since the morning. I didn't even know who to call again and none of my guards went out with her. As from tomorrow, she must go about with guards, I made a mental note.I arrived home in the afternoon since I had only one walk to do and it was in the morning. I came back home immediately after my job and met the house void of Mabel, it didn't even worried me much because I know that she would be with her friends, but then Alana told me that she left the house hurriedly and she left her food nearly untouched and I became worried. I called her line but she wasn't picking up and till now, she still didn't picked up her call.I was still pacing around when I heard the guards opening the gate and I rush
Stefan pov.I woke up the next morning to dress up for work, throughout my dressing, Mabel was still sleeping and I decided to leave her be. She came home late crying and she must be tired, I was even happy that she didn't fall sick.I walked out of the room after dropping a letter for her on the bed, telling her that I will be coming home late because I will be meeting up my investigator after work."Good morning sir, your food is ready." Alana told me immediately I got to the sitting room."Hi there Alana. Mabel came late yesterday, she must be the one that will be needing your attention, though she is still sleeping right now but as for me, I will just grab breakfast with Owen and George." I told her and left the room.I instructed the guards that at least five of them must follow Mabel about if she wanted to go out, so that I wouldn't be that worried for her anymore, I would just call the guards to know if they are fine and at least, one will pick the call out of all of them.I go
Stefan pov.I stood still with the guys with my eyes almost bugging out, after the attendant's words"I don't understand a thing you are saying, make it clear to me." I told her and crouched to her level as she was still kneeing and weeping."I was doing my job even the lady on the screen called me and told me that she wanted to give me a deal that I should tell no one about it, so I wanted to decline but she gave me no space to and she gave me the drugs to put in the other lady's drink." She explained."Who is the other lady?" I asked her with my heart beating very fast that I feared that the attendant would hear it, but I don't care."She said that the other lady was the lady that was dancing with you." She said and I didn't know when I fell to my butt in shock. Mabel! The drink was for Mabel!I widened my eyes in realization, Mabel would have been the one in Sandra's position, she would have been raped, she would have lose her womb, she would have....no, no! I tried to shook the wo
Mabel pov.I was in the sitting room, waiting patiently for Stefan, though I saw his letter in the morning where he told me that he would be visiting the investigator and that he would arrive home late, but I was curious, I wanted to hear how his meeting with the investigator went before I can sleep peaceably with the full mind that the culprit would be found and I can proof my friends wrong for not trusting me.I began to doze off on the single sitter, but woke up immediately when I heard the opening of the door, I knew it would be Stefan because I wasn't expecting anyone and moreover, it was night already."Hey." I greeted and ran to him."You suppose to be sleeping Mabel." He said, tucking his hands into his hair. He doesn't seemed okay to me, he seemed stressed out and tired."Go and shower, I will prepare your dinner, I'm sure that you are hungry." I muttered to him."Mabel.....""Just go, we can talk tomorrow, trust me, you will rest after dinner." I said, cutting him off.I did
Stefan pov.I left the shooting scene in the evening after work and headed to where I parked my car, I wasn't surprised when I met Owen and George in the garage, just beside my car. I have been ignoring their calls since morning and that was simply because I didn't wanted to talk to them."Hey bro." George pulled out hand for shaking but I ignored it. "Now, that's not fair. I was busy thinking that you didn't saw our calls and has been too busy to return it, but seriously, you're ignoring us intentionally?" He pulled down his hand and frowned."I'm just not ready for your words, I'm not in the mood for any of it." I opened the car to enter but Owen shut it back."You are seriously not leaving this place unless we resolve everything amicably among us." He said."Look, we are not fighting okay? I just need some times to think." I told them."I think we have given you some times already and it's enough." George said and I sighed, I folded my hands on each other."What do you both want fr
