The Devil's Weakness Chapter Fifteen
Axel.It was past nine in the morning, Axel was an early bird, he was always up and running by seven am. He exercises by five am and drinks his coffee by six am, he gets ready for the day before seven am. But two extra hours had passed and nothing had happened. No one wakes him but today, it seemed like something was different.The aura was dark and cold."He hasn't woken up sir." A maid reported to Wesley when she knocked more than once. Axel had rules for everything and for everyone. He had rules that he followed and the one he expected everyone else to follow too.He said whenever the staff needed anything all they need to do is knock once and that was it. He would always answer. But if he doesn't answer in ten to thrity seconds, they should always refer back to Wesley. Being the new maid, she read all the rule books and made sure she didn't miss anything. She had heard rumors of how many workers had died in the house for the little rules that they broke."Okay, you can go back to

Jasmine."Why are you dressing up? The doctor said you should be resting, he specifically asked that you stay home and rest." Brandon pointed out as he was doing his morning body routine. Jasmine blurted out a laugh as he walked up to her. She was over the sink, brushing. She had a mirror over the sink. She saw her fiancée and laughterHe had a white lotion all over his face and even on his eyelashes, and his beards. "Why are you laughing? What's funny?" Brandon asked his fiancée who was busy trying to avoid her bursting into laughter."Your face! You looked like a ghost!" She laughed again for the second time. He gave her a stern look and she swallowed her laughter immediately."You barely know anything do you? You should know that this is what I use to keep this face all pretty for you, you dare not insult my skincare routine you forest liver!" He said out loud sarcastically. He was so serious. All Jasmine could do was laugh out loud."Relax!" She cleared her throat and raised her h

Axel The sight of how she choked on the harmless question made him chuck. He cleared his throat and laid back. He watched how nervous she became and how she barely held eye contact. He smiled underneath his stuffed face."I am so sorry." She managed to let out. He read how she was. Unexpected and dumbstruck. He saw how she wiped her mouth clean and how she cleaned the table."It's alright, I understand. I didn’t mean to take you by shock." Axel replied to her. He saw how shy she was. She cleaned the table successfully."I am sorry, I didn't expect the question." She added as she pushed the cocoa aside."Uh- I think I should go on to the important questions. What triggers your anger?" Jasmine tried to change the topic and move on. She tried to bring out her pen and paper.Axel decided to play along. "Maybe it's how she will get herself back together." He thought to himself as he cleared his throat."You do know it's hard to open up, how do you deal with clients that are that way?" Axe

Chapter 18Jasmine."Do you remember your first kiss?" She heard the question for the second time. Why was he asking so intentionally?Why did he care "Uh, no I have never had that before. You have asked this so many times." She had discomfort in her eyes as they walked along, she hoped it was just a random question. She didn't want to feel any more uncomfortable.She knew she had to be respectful to his wishes."But you have a fiance? Don't you?" He asked another question. Jasmine was uncomfortable but she tried to reply in a warm.tone."Maybe this is how to get through his wall." She thought and replied."Yeah but we haven't kissed before." Jasmine replied without a shaky smile. "Okay" He said as he pulled her closer to him. He titled his head and their lips met, he gave her teases more intense than the story she told. She closed her eyes and enjoyed how their tongues met and parted. The sound she heard was pleasing."He kissed me, he is kissing me." Jasmine tried to remind hers

Axel.Axel saw as she left abruptly. She didn't take a turn to look at him. Certainly he wasn't going to run after her. He wasn't going to run after some human. More less someone who needed his help. He scoffed at the silly, sorry and childish behaviour that she showed.Axel turned and walked into his house. His mind wasn't clouded, he just was sure not to think about anything. He shook his head and cleared his mind He took his steps one after the other. All he knew was he wiped her first kiss and he replaced it immediately.He wiped his lips and smiled. Axel walked with his arms behind his back.He didn't have any reason to say a word or call his psychologist. He was sure not to have a reason to see her againHe entered his office and sat down comfortably. He had some unfinished business with his clients and the shipping of some goods."Wesley! Come here now." He growled as he hung the landline. He was ready to work and make sure his employees all had their head in the game.He kep

AxelAxel had already given Wesley the documents and details of all the debtors including those that tried to play him.Axel decided to dedicate these moments to them and them alone. He had nothing else to worry about or to even take off.He was expectant of something, her call. Even if he knew he had canceled the upper call. At least her anger or a plea. He wanted her to beg or even whine about his actions but nothing happened.It infuriated him but he ignored it. He stood up and took a trip to hell.The sound and the noises of the prisoners all gave him a rush. He loved how he suffered. It calmed his nerves. He walked in sequence and he passed each room. He didn't take a look at the prisoners or those that were being tortured.He walked without a thought that could disturb him. He got to his office and sat down."Humans!" He growled and banged the table. All he could do was picture the people that showed their human nature.He knew he left without informing his assistant. "He doesn

Jasmine. "You better fix up." He growled and let go of her. Her blood pressure shut to the roof. She felt her panic attack coming up all over again. She sighed as she watched him leave.She held herself as she stood up. Being a psychologist she understood he might be going through some trauma or something that he doesn't want to talk about.She tried to look back at the time when all these started. She remembered it was when she started having lapses. The moments she started to lose her memory. The days when she wouldn't remember things."Have I been forgetting some things?" She asked herself as she paced in the room. Brandon was in the kitchen. She wasn't entirely scared, she was scared but not scared enough to call the cops or to even try and make a scene.She saw him as a client, someone who if she tried to understand she would. She sighed and took out her notepad. She wrote down all she had concluded that he was probably jealous.She had been going out to a particular client's h

AlexYou helped her? Wesley who came in with a file said as they walked into the board room. It was the D day, he was about to sell a private hotel to a buyer. He made sure they prepared their reasons and they were sure they would buy it.Axel loved being professional in all his ways, even the smallest details and the smallest ways."Yeah, they were having issues." Axel said as he sat down, he arrived an hour early for the meeting. He sat down at the table. A table wide enough to contain eight different people. But today, it was just four. He could have easily arranged for a small meeting at a restaurant but it was past 8pm and he loved late night meetings. He had always done his meetings at night.The round big circle table, with a room with glass walls where he stood, he watched the city with one stare.He hasn't given Wesley a reply, Wesley placed the necessary documents at the assigned places and stood too.Axel turned and looked at him. "Yes, I helped her. She needed help and I
