Stefan's POV
I listened intently as the voice on the other end of the phone gave me the shocking news about the CCTV footage. Someone had deliberately caused the break failure in Mirabel's car, leading to her tragic accident. The voice indicated that they were still working on identifying the culprit, but the evidence was clear. I stood up furiously ruffling my head furiously, so her death was all planned and someone did that!!My mind raced with a flurry of emotions , anger, grief, and confusion. How could someone be so evil as to intentionally cause an accident just to make me mourn my girlfriend? And who could it be? Questions flooded my mind, but there were no immediate answers. I loved her so much and someone decided to take her a way by using an accident, I just Revenge her death and Find the person!!, This is a promise to Mirabel. Taking down everyone that have a hand in her death, they are gonna die too.I hung up the phone and turned to face Mabel, who was still lounging on the sofa, indifferent to the phone call. Suddenly, her nonchalant attitude towards everything bothered me even more. How could she be so apathetic?, the phone call was loud enough for her to hear but she was acting like a gold digger she is."I just received some disturbing news" I said, my voice laced with anger and I didn't know why I was even telling her because this is none of her business and she is an enemy. "Someone intentionally caused the accident that killed Mirabel" I continued and quickly stop talking reminding myself that She doesn't know my late girlfriend and I shouldn't be talking to her about this.Mabel's eyes widened momentarily, but she quickly composed herself and shrugged. "Well, accidents happen, don't they? It's unfortunate, but it's in the past. Nothing much, she is not the first person that got killed or is she?" She question without remorse.I couldn't believe her callous response. It was as if she had no empathy or compassion for the pain I was feeling. "How can you say something like that?" I retorted, my voice rising. "Mirabel was the love of my life, and someone took her away from me! I need to find out who is responsible for this!, It was a mistake spilling it to you, Fuck you!" I blurted out ruffling my head frustratedly as I pace to and fro around the room.Mabel scoffed, dismissively waving her hand. "Oh please, Stefan. Don't act like you actually cared about her. You are just a pornstar who also sleeps around excluding your job so stop acting like you were loyal to your girlfriend" She ranted rolling her eyes at me.Her words cut through me like a knife. How dare she accuse me of such things? "You don't know anything about my relationship with Mirabel so bloody shut up, you've overstayed your welcome, Now leave my house this minute before I loose it?" I seethed, struggling to keep my anger in check.Mabel's face twisted with a mix of anger and frustration. "Well, it doesn't matter now, does it? Mirabel is gone, and there is nothing you can do, I will leave this cage you call a house!" She yelled back at me, stomping her foot on the ground as if wanting to break it.I felt a surge of rage bubbling inside me, but I took a deep breath, reminding myself to stay calm. Arguing with her wouldn't solve anything."Leave my house, Now!!!" I yelled and push her off furiously, My head is all messed up."Mirabel is alive!"STEFAN'S POVIt took a moment for Mabel's words to sink in. "What... what did you say?" I stammered, my heart pounding in my chest Wondering what she know about Mirabel, I was dumbstruck. It was as if the whole world had stopped, and my mind couldn't comprehend what she had just uttered.Mabel smirked, a smug look spreading across her face. "Oh, didn't you hear me? Mirabel... she's alive" she drawled, reveling in the shock she had just caused me and my eyes widened, At that point I couldn't pinpoint the sarcastic look on her face. My head was just filled with Mirabel.My mind went into overdrive, trying to process this information. Could it be true? Could Mirabel really be alive? A mixture of hope and confusion clouded my thoughts. "No... that can't be. I saw the clip of the accident, the wreckage, it was..." I trailed off, unable to finish my sentence, I was already going crazy and my brain was already messed up at this point.Mabel crossed her arms, a sly smile playing on her lips.
Stefan's POVMabel's laughter echoed in my ears as she continued to mock me. I couldn't believe the audacity she had to make light of such a painful situation. Anger coursed through my veins like wildfire, and I could feel myself losing control of my emotions, It hurts so much and she couldn't even feel any form of remorse."Get out! Get out of my house and don't you dare show your face to me again!" I yelled, my voice trembling with rage and hurt. Tears formed in my eyes, blurring my vision as I struggled to keep my composure. But the weight of it all was overwhelming, and the floodgates burst open as I sunk to the floor, my body racked with sobs, I couldn't help but just pour it out because this hurts so much. And with this I don't think I can even get married to someone like this, She is a witch and can't be someone to spend the rest of my life with, She can even kill me at night with this behaviour.All the memories of Mirabel came rushing back, the love we shared, the dreams we h
STEFAN'S POVI was hoping for mum to lash out at me, i know the consequences for disobeying mum's order, but i did it anyway. I could risk anything for Mirabel and i need to get to the truth of her death."You must be out of your mind" mum replied to me after i told her to call off the preparation for the marriage."Mum, I'm a grown up adult. Why can't i possibly make decisions for myself. It's my life mum, not your life" i yelled out to mum at the other end of the phone."How....." I didn't allow mum to continue her statement and i hung up on her.All through my life, this is the first time i boldly stood up against mum's decision. Recently, mum have been behaving wired. Although i disliked my dad for forcing me into porn acting, i am begining to see that both him and mum are working together to ruin my life.Ding!!!I got a text message on my phone. Without checking the message that popped up on my phone screen, i knew who i would be.I brought out my phone, and just as i thought, i
MABEL'S POVMy phone rang, I saw the number on the screen and my stomach dropped. It was Stefan's mother. I knew she was going to ask me to do something I didn't want to do. I considered not answering, but I knew that would only make things worse. So I picked up the phone and said, "Hello?" "Mabel, dear, it's Stefan's mother. I have a proposition for you, I need you to do something for me," she continued. "I need you to come over to our house and spend the night with Stefan. I know it's a big ask, but it's important to me." I felt my heart sink. "Why?" I asked, my voice small. "I need to make sure that he will abide by my orders, I need him to know that he's not going to do anything stupid. And I think that you might be the one to make that happen by doing what i ask of you." I didn't know what to say. "I don't know if I can do that," I replied back to her." Remember your family bankruptcy!" she blurted out.I knew that my parents were struggling financially. And I knew that they
MABEL'S POV"Mabel, your father has had a heart attack," my mother said, her voice shaking. "He's in the hospital, and they say he's in critical condition." My heart stopped. I felt like the world was spinning around me. My mind was racing. I couldn't believe what i was hearing. My father had always been so healthy, so strong. How could this be happening? I could barely think straight, but I knew I had to act quickly. I ran to my car and started the engine, my hands shaking. I tried to focus on the road as I drove to the hospital, but my thoughts were consumed with worry for my father. What if he didn't make it?When I arrived at the hospital, I rushed to the reception desk. I told the receptionist my father's name, and the receptionist directed me to the cardiac unit. My heart kept on pounding as I made my way down the long hallway. I felt like I was in a nightmare, like this couldn't be real. Finally, I reached the cardiac unit. I went to the nurses' station and asked for my fath
STEFAN'S POV"Mabel have agreed to the marriage, and so will you!" Mom yelled at me over the other end of the phone. I hated everything about Mabel. Her arrogance, her entitled attitude, the way she always acted like she was better than everyone else. And now, I was supposed to marry her? I couldn't do it. I just couldn't.I tried to collect my thoughts, to figure out what to say. I couldn't believe my mother would be so heartless to agree to this. She knew how I felt about Mabel. We had argued about her over the weeks, I never agreed to get married to her. I couldn't understand why she would do this to me. "Mom, you can't be serious," I said, my voice shaking. "You know how I feel about Mabel. There's no way I can marry her." There was a long pause on the other end of the line. I could almost hear my mother's brain whirring, trying to figure out what to say."I know you two have had your differences," my mother finally said, "but I truly believe that this is for the best. You're b
STEFAN'S POVMum sat down with me and Mabel to discuss the details of the wedding. She suggested a date that was only a few weeks away. My heart sank. I had hoped for more time to prepare, but I knew that I had to make the best of the situation. "What about the venue?" Mabel asked. "Where will we have the wedding?" My mother suggested a local church, but Mabel shook her head. "I'm not religious," she said. "I'd prefer something more secular."As I sat across from my mother and Mabel, discussing the details of our upcoming wedding, I felt a knot of anxiety in my stomach. I didn't want to get married, especially not to Mabel. But I knew I had no choice. My mother was insistent, and I didn't have the strength to fight her. So I sat there, listening to the plans being made, feeling like a prisoner. I wondered if I would ever be able to break free."What about the dress?" Mabel asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement. My mother suggested a traditional white gown, but Mabel shook her he
MABEL'S POVI got out of bed, the morning light streaming through the window. I looked at myself in the mirror, trying to imagine what my life would be like as a married woman. I felt a surge of panic, and I closed my eyes, trying to calm myself down. I knew I couldn't let my anxiety get the best of me, not on this day of all days. I took a deep breath and opened my eyes again. I had a lot of work to do before the ceremony, and I couldn't afford to waste any time.I went into the bathroom and turned on the shower, letting the hot water wash over me. As I stood there, I tried to clear my mind, focusing on the feeling of the water on my skin. I tried to imagine myself as a bride, walking down the aisle towards my future. But the more I thought about it, the more I felt like I was suffocating. I turned off the shower, the panic rising in my chest. I had to get it together, I had to be strong. But I felt like I was on the verge of losing control. I took a deep breath, forcing myself to c
