THE BRAUN MANSION***
“Welcome, young master…” A maid greeted when Axel entered the big mansion.
Axel ignored her and walked past her, his gaze hardening as the seconds passed.
He got to his parent’s bedroom and opened the door violently, startling his Mom who was just coming out of the bathroom.
Mrs. Braun was thunderstruck when her eyes beheld her only son.
“Axel…” She stuttered.
“How long are you both going to keep this on??” Axel yelled.
“All because I refused to get married to that wh-_-re?!” Axel spat disdainfully.
Mr. Braun entered the room at that moment, a chuckle escaped his lips when he saw Axel.
He knew his son would still come back, crawling on his knees for his own forgiveness.
“I know you’re surely going to show up,” he grinned.
Axel turned to him with a treacherous glare, which got Mr. Braun taken aback.
“Lemme make this clear to you, if you think you can destroy me just because I refuse to do your will, then you’ve got to be dreaming. Because I, Axel, will never stoop so low to your demands.”
“And… This will be the last time I’m ever gonna set my foot into this house, I’m dead serious. Because, no father would wish something bad for his only child,” Axel spat angrily.
“This is all for your own good. Ariel is the right woman for you, she’s beautiful, she has good behavior. She comes from a rich background, isn’t that all that a man needs in a woman?” Mr. Braun half yelled.
“Oh, really? Then, did your father forced you to marry Mom? Was your marriage with Mom an arranged one??!” Axel yelled which caught Mr. Braun unaware.
Noticing he couldn’t say a word, Axel scoffed before leaving the room, jamming the door loud in anger.
“Axel! Axel!!!” Mrs. Braun rushed after him.

MONASH UNIVERSITY***
Immediately after the second lecture ended, the students started trooping out of the class slowly.
Lauren yawned loudly and rubbed her stomach with a pout.
“Gosh, I’m so starving,” she groaned. She actually skipped breakfast since she left her house early.
“Same here,” Julie chuckled.
“Then let’s get something to eat, I’m also starving,” Melanie muttered.
They stood up and left the class, heading to the cafeteria.
They were still on their way when they came across Audrey and Freya.
Audrey simply rolled her eyes and walked past them. She dare not confront them for the fear of losing her teeth this time around.
That time, a car drove into the school compound. The car which the students recognized as Axel’s.
? f-__-king gosh!! It’s Axel!
? It’s been so long since I saw him, I missed him a lot!
? I really can’t wait to see his face
Axel came out of the car, looking angry. He drove to school immediately after he left the house.
His gaze was still hard till his eyes settled on hers. Slowly, his eyes softened and a big smile found its way to his lips.
“Mi amor,” he whispered, staring at the lady whose eyes were still on him.
“He’s just becoming hotter making it hard for me to get him out of my head,” Audrey muttered while Freya continued gawking at his dripping hotness.
“Babe!!” Axel yelled which gained all the students attention.
Melanie’s eyes widened immediately as he started walking to her with a charming smile on his face.
? What the hell? He called her babe?
? So, they’re dating after all?
Julie’s mouth and eyes were wide open as Axel continued walking towards them till he finally got to Melanie. Then he did something shocking.
He grabbed Melanie by the waist and slammed his lips on hers right in front of the students.
Julie’s knees gave away as she staggered back in shock, almost tripping to the floor.
Paisley who saw that smirked, noticing the jealousy right in Julie’s eyes.
Axel pulled from the kiss and licked his lips segzily, staring at Melanie who was still staring at him dumbfounded.
“I missed you,” he smiled.
“Oh no!” Some girls fainted at the spot.
Audrey’s face was burning with jealousy as she stared at the duo. When she couldn’t take the sight anymore, she turned and marched away in anger.
Freya went after her, still not getting the scene out of her head.
“Why did you do that?” Melanie asked in a whisper.
“What?” Axel asked, feigning innocence. He stared at Paisley and then at Lauren who was still in shock.
“Can I take my girlfriend with me? I really need her right now,” he smiled.
“Of course, she’s all yours” Paisley winked and Axel chuckled.
“Let’s go, Bae,” Axel held Melanie’s hand and took her away, the students’ eyes following their every move.
? That was so sweet
? I’m so jealous of her right now.
“They’re dating?” Lauren asked, blinking her eyes rapidly.
“Yea. I know some Ɓîtçhes will be so shocked right now, but that’s the truth” Paisley eyed Julie with the corner of her eyes.
“They look so cute together, don’t they?” Paisley smiled
“I… I need to be somewhere,” Julie stuttered, trying not to look suspicious. She ran away from the place without even waiting for their reply.
“Fake Ɓîtçh,” Paisley spat.
“Hey c’mon, why are you acting shocked? You should have been expecting this all along,” she rolled her eyes at Lauren.
“I’m shocked at the fact that you knew about it while she never told me anything,” Lauren rolled her eyes back.
“That’s because I’m special, dummy” Paisley stuck her tongue before walking away.
Lauren frowned greatly and went after her.
“I’m special too,!” She yelled which made Paisley laugh.

A4’S SUITE***
Axel entered the house, still holding Melanie’s hand in his own. All at once, the guy’s eyes turned to them which made Melanie uncomfortable.
“Woohoo, who do we have here?” Aaron whistled loudly.
“Meet my girlfriend, Melanie” Axel introduced with a smile.
“Of course we know that dummy,” Ace laughed, which surprised Melanie.
Are they back together now? She glanced at Axel who smiled back at her.
“It’s actually the first time I’ll be introducing myself to you. I’m Aiden,”
“Aaron,” Aaron winked.
“I don’t think I need to introduce myself or is there a need to?” Ace asked.
They all laughed.
“We’ll be in my room, enjoy,” Axel said and took Melanie to his room.
“Are you fine with this?” Aaron turned to Ace who had a smile on his face
“Yes. I’m sure he’s gonna love her more than I did” Ace said.
“Now, you’re suddenly acting mature,” Aiden rolled his eyes.

“Welcome to my room,” Axel grinned when they both entered his room.
“I’m not the first lady to come in here, am I?” Melanie muttered with a tinge of jealousy in her voice.
“Bae…” Axel bit his lips guiltily.
“It’s fine, but I wanna be the last lady to come here, can you do that for me?”
“Sure. I promise with my life” Axel let out a smile.
“I’m glad to find out you guys are back together,” Melanie suddenly said.
Axel pulled her body to him and hugged her from behind, kissing her neck at intervals.
“I love you, mine. I’ll never leave you, not in this world,” he murmured against her neck.
“What’s with these words? Are you okay?” Melanie asked, touching his hand which was on her stomach, a little inches away from her br*east.
“Hmm. I just miss you so much, my addiction” he whispered.
“Same here,” Melanie smiled.
Axel turned her to him and captured her lips in his instantly. She was all he needed at that moment, the only one who could make him happy just by her presence.
The only one who took his anger away with just a stare, the only one he got crazy for…. His Melanie.

IN A ROOM****
Pacing around the room in anger, her mind kept drifting back to his words.
*”I have a girlfriend and I love her so d@mn much, so quit any feelings you have for me, it ain’t gonna work”*
“Arghhhh!!” She pulled her hair roughly, gritting her teeth in anger.
“I love him! I love him!” She screamed like a mad woman.
Tony entered the room at that moment, he smirked when he saw her. He’s actually her male friend, more like a f-__-k buddy.
“Thinking about it again, huh?” He asked, leaning on the wall.
She shot a harsh glare at him and he flinched slightly.
“Take it easy, okay? I’m not Axel,” he rolled his eyes.
She scoffed before biting her fingers, thinking of what to do.
“By the way, when is the engagement gonna take place? Or is the ship already sinking… Ariel?” Tony asked sarcastically.
