Ready?” Lily asked as Axel walked out of the closet dressed.
“Obviously.” He replied with a stern look as he adjusted his jacket.
“Can you at least smile? You look good.” Lily said but he didn’t give her a response. He walked past her and walked out of the suite. Lily sighed and rushed after him.
She caught up with him in the hallway and put her arm around his shoulder, it wasn’t easy for her because he was taller than her.
He paused and turned to her, Lily withdrew her arm from his shoulder as he stared at her.
“What?” She asked with a smile and he rolled his eyes at her before heading towards the elevator. Lily giggled and rushed after him, she jumped on his back and Axel sighed before holding her firmly.
“I will annoy you till you talk to me.” She said but Axel didn’t give her a response. They got into the elevator but still, he wasn’t saying anything.
Lily rolled her eyes.
“Put me down.” She said.
Axel let go of her and she stood on her feet, she stood in front of him and he raised his brows.
Lily wrapped her arms around and kissed him, Axel didn’t reciprocate and she sighed as she pulled away.
“Ugh, come on Axel. Please.” She pleaded but still, he ignored her.
Lily folded her arms and leaned on the elevator wall, she thought of what she could do to get him to talk.
She suddenly recalled something she could do.
Slowly, she started to cry and Axel turned to her immediately.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” He asked as he moved closer to her. Lily placed her head on his shoulder and cried.
He wrapped his arms around her immediately and creased her hair.
“What’s wrong? Why are you crying?” He asked softly and Lily sniffed.
“You are not talking to me.” She replied. He sighed and pulled away from the hug, he cupped her cheeks and lifted her face a little.
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry I made you cry.” He replied and Lily slowly smiled.
“It worked.” She chuckled and Axel rolled his eyes.
“Whatever.” He scoffed and smiled.
“All I had to do was recall I am your weakness and you hate it when I cry.” She replied and Axel poked her forehead.
“Happy now?” He asked as the elevator doors opened.
“Yes.” Lily giggled in response and held his hand as they both walked out of the elevator.
They got outside and entered the car.
“So, where are we going?” Axel asked as Lily drove. She chuckled and turned to him.
“Hmm, I feel like I am the one taking you out on a date.” Lily replied.
“Well, isn’t it you? You forced me.”
“Well, guess who is paying?” She asked and he shook his head with a smile. They arrived at a restaurant and they both walked out of the car.
Axel stared at the building before turning to Lily with a look.
“Really, Lily? A fast food restaurant?”
“What? I was having weird cravings.” She replied and pulled him in.
They got in and they took a seat at a table, the restaurant wasn’t so crowded. They placed their order and Lily ordered a lot of food which Axel found weird.
The meal was brought to them and Axel was surprised at the rate at which Lily was eating.
“Lily, are you okay?” He asked and she nodded with a mouth full.
“Okay.” Axel muttered.
She gulped out of the glass of juice and sighed in relief as she swallowed.
“So, about what happened to her months ago.” she said and Axel looked up at her.
“Are you sure you want to talk about it?” He asked, she nodded in response and exhaled heavily.
“Oh, okay then.” Axel replied and paid attention to her.
“Okay. So when I was here, I was captured by… ” Lily was cut off as Axel’s phone rang.
“Hold on.” He muttered as he brought out his phone.
“Oh, it is Kender.” He said as he picked up the call and placed the phone on his ear.
“Dad, I am going to rip Kendra apart!” He yelled. Axel heard Kendra yelling too and he sighed.
“I got to pee.” Lily suddenly said and Axel nodded at her. She stood up and walked to one of the waiters and asked him where the bathroom was. She got the direction and opened the door leading to the back.
She got to the back and it was a hallway, she found the lady’s restroom after a few more steps. She entered, and used the bathroom.
She was done minutes later and walked out, before she could blink, she felt a firm hand pin her to the wall and she groaned.
Her eyes widened in shock as she saw El Diablo.
“Hey, Kitten.” He whispered and leaned closer to her. Lily’s heart raced as she tried to pull away from him.
Axel was in the building! He could show up anytime.
Tears rushed to Lily’s eyes as she tried to push him away from her but his grip on her was tight.
“No, no. Please, let go of me.” Lily pleaded.
“Why? I missed you. Stop doing that, you are only making things worse.” He rolled his eyes and moved closer to her.
“You are crying.” He said softly as he noticed the tears in her eyes.
“Please, let go of me. My husband is here.” Lily whispered as the tears rolled out of her cheeks.
“What? Your husband doesn’t know about us?” El Diablo asked.
“What?” They both heard a voice say and they turned to see Axel standing a little bit far from them. Lily felt her heart shatter as tears rolled out of her cheeks.
“I don’t care what is going on, all I know is you can’t be holding my wife like that.” Axel said as he moved closer to them. El Diablo scoffed and turned to Lily.
He crashed his lips on hers and Lily’s eyes widened in shock, he pulled away from her and turned back to Axel who watched in surprise.
“Your wife? She is mine.”
