Axel brushed past him, not even acknowledging his presence. He doesn’t want to get involved with him at the moment and this is why he chooses to pretend as though he didn’t see him but as always he doesn’t seem to get the message. Darius's eyes narrowed, his face reddening with anger. "Hey, watch where you're going, Axel!" Darius snarled, his voice low and menacing. Axel didn't even flinch. He kept walking, his eyes fixed on the door to the dormitory. Darius's anger boiled over. He reached out and grabbed Axel's arm, spinning him around. "You think you're too highly of yourself, don't you?" he sneered. trying to mess with Axel as he usually does. Axel's eyes flashed with annoyance, he wasn’t in the mood. "Get your hands off me, Darius," he growled, his voice low and even trying as hard as he could to maintain his cool. Darius sneered. "Or what? You'll cry to your daddy?" he mocked letting out a laugh. “You seem to have developed a lot of balls these days Axel Storm, who fuck do

Axel growls for the umpteenth time finding it so hard to convince Asher to be the grandson of Alexandra Storm. “See I just need you to take that position while we are in school. I can’t handle the scandal if they find out that I’m the rich one, at least till I figure things out. And don’t worry I will handle things at work and my name still stands there” he reasons. Asher's expression was incredulous. "You're crazy, Axel! If your grandfather finds out, he'll kill me!" Axel's annoyance increased. "He'll never know, I promise. And I'll owe you one, Asher. I just need you to do that for me in the meantime.” Asher tried to shake him off, but Axel held fast. "Axel, think about what you're asking. I can't just pretend to be you” he tries to fight back. Collins, who had been watching the exchange, chimed in. "Asher, it's not a bad idea. You're smart, capable, and charismatic. You could pull it off." Asher turned to Collins, his eyes wide with disbelief. "You're not serious, are you, Col

"So it's like a date or--" he stopped halfway due to the glare Axel shot him. Axel had informed them about Raya's offer and he knew that it was one of the parties he had to attend cause not shortly after Raya had left did he go through his nails to see the invitation. For now, Asher was going to take the place of Mr Storm. The few people who knew Axel's identity had been warned to seize shut or face the consequences. "For the last time collins, this isn't a date" Axel states irritatingly letting out a groan. Asher laughed, "Stop messing around. So when did you say the time is?" "It's starting by 8 pm," Axel announced. "So you're only going there as Raya's date and nothing else?" Asher asked wanting to be sure Axel knew what he was doing to which Axel nodded in response. "Yes. Once you're done with your presentation Asher and Raya introduce me to her uncle as her date, you will cook up a reason to explain that we have to leave" Axel states pinching the brick of his nose. A

She laughed, "cut the crap Axel Storm, what are you doing here? You don't belong here and slums like you shouldn't be welcomed." She mocks with a sneer. Axel growled unsure of how to respond to her. He didn't want to do anything that would create a scene as it wouldn't be good for his reputation. "Fuck off!" He hissed getting up but she pulled him back. "No, you don't get to walk away from me while I'm still talking. You are nothing Axel Storm, you don't deserve to be here. I still regret the fact that I wasted my time on you" she states with meaning. Axel is taken aback by her sudden actions urging him to get more infuriated and irritated. "What the hell is wrong with you?" He managed to keep his voice low but for some reason failed wearfully. "I'll ask the guards to escort you out as you can see filthy people like you aren't supposed to be here. I still wonder how I was so stupid to have let you take so much control over me, I regret wasting my time on you Axel Storm "s

"Axel" Collins calls out drawing my attention to the files he has in his hands. "Take a look at this" He offered placing it on the table. Axel had Felix run some checks on Raya's family and what they are up to, which he knows he shouldn't have cause it's more or less an invasion of privacy yet for some reason he couldn't help but prey. His curiosity got the better of him and now that Collins had approached him with the papers he knew there was more to it than Raya normally shows. "Are these the papers?" Axel asked for confirmation to which Collins nodded. "You won't like what you'd see though" he states just for a heads up. Axel's brows furrowed in confusion as he took them in his hands. Collins excused himself walking out of the office leaving Axel to himself. Axel roamed his stare around the papers deeply getting engrossed as he read more and more about Raya. His jawline hardened as he got into her uncle's dirty business in which he was involved. The part that got his a
