Hellbound With You

Chapter 447 Your love

Alicia had plenty more to say. She had received a ton of important information from her queen that everyone needed to know but she knew this wasn’t the time to do that yet. She had to make sure that Alexander was fully cured first before they returned to country V where they could deal with this matter efficiently. She also needed everyone to be around so they could make a plan this time and not just charge into the enemy’s lair. They would not make the same mistakes again. All of them had not expected the existence of another immortal in this world. They thought that Alex was the only one. How that woman managed to hide her existence all this time was quite impressive in itself but that woman needed to be killed before everything took a turn for the worse. They needed to move now.

"Abigail is alright. I have cured all her wounds and she is doing very well so you don’t have anything to worry about," Alicia continued. "I will leave her to you. Go to her now before she wakes up and looks for you. Don’t leave her alone again," she insisted before she finally left.

Once Alicia was gone, Alex rose. He walked towards the door and hesitantly opened it. He was glad the scent of Abigail’s blood didn’t linger anymore. He silently headed to the bed where he saw Abigail sleeping. Her wounds had been carefully wrapped with white bandages.

She looked so peaceful. Alex lifted his hand to touch her face but he stopped midway, realizing that he was covered in blood - his clothes, his hair, his hands. He stared at his dirty hand and his jaws clenched.

Retracting his hand, Alex headed to the bathroom. Things had gotten even more complicated. He didn’t know about the existence of another immortal. How come that woman was able to conceal herself all these years from him? Where had she been hiding all this time?

Alex’s eyes sharpened as he stared at the marble wall, while the hot water fell on him. That immortal woman spoke like he knew him but he had no recollection of her at all. Was she someone he knew before he became an immortal? She must have been, otherwise how would she have been there when he had taken down the dragon?

He tried to think but the scene of her slashing Abi’s neck appeared in his head instead and without thought, his fist hit the wall hard, smashing the bathroom tiles. He would never let that woman touch his Abigail again!

Alex stepped out of the bathroom wearing his white robe as he silently dried his hair. He was quick to get dressed and immediately walked over to the bed.

Abigail was still sleeping soundly so he sat on the edge of the bed, watching her face. He laid down next to her and was about to spoon her but he rose again, almost instantly. He had taken a whiff of that intoxicating scent of her blood and it almost made him salivate.

He cursed within him. This change was too drastic. She wasn’t bleeding anymore so he couldn’t believe he was still able to smell her blood and that it would affect him this bad.

He glanced at her again and his desire for her blood increased by the second. It wasn’t normal and he couldn’t help but fear his own body’s reaction towards her.

Clenching his fists, Alex rose from the bed but before he could take a step away, a warm hand caught his wrist.

"Where are you going?" Abigail asked.

Alex’s head snapped towards her. She was looking up at him with those lovely, big clear eyes of her.

"Don’t leave, Alex. Please stay with me," she uttered as she tugged his arm. Alex didn’t budge for a while but he eventually sat next to her, although he didn’t face her.

Abi moved to hug him and she noticed his body immediately tensed up.

"Are you... okay?" she asked him, worried and curious as to what could have made him react this way.

She got up and knelt down next to him and gently cupped his face, making him look at her, but Alex held her wrists, as if he was preparing himself to push her away.

"Abigail. I am dangerous for you right now. My thirst for you is too much. I can feel it. The urge is too strong and I don’t know I am strong enough to stop myself. Right now, I just want to sink my teeth into your neck and suck your blood," he told her, looking grave and angry at himself. How could he crave for her blood like this?

Abi’s expression didn’t change. Her eyes became even gentler and she placed her palm on his cheek, caressing them.

"Alex..." she whispered his name. "I cannot even imagine all the struggles you are going through, but maybe you should stop fighting it now..."

Alex’s brows creased at her words but Abi continued talking, not giving him a chance to talk back as she gently bumped her forehead on his.

"What I’m saying is, don’t fight your needs anymore, Alex. I willingly offer myself to you. You aren’t forcing yourself on me so don’t think that way. And I know you won’t hurt me. I believe that with all of my being. You also need to trust yourself, okay?"

"Abigail. I don’t trust my body anymore. My body could betray me and you and I wouldn’t forgive myself if I..."

Abi smiled at him and planted a kiss on his lips, making Alex tense up even more, clasping the bedsheet under his hands with great intensity.

She pulled away and shook her head. "I trust you, Alex. Your love... your love for me is that strong that I know you would stop yourself from harming me. You have demonstrated this many, many times, Alex, so believe in that. If nothing else, believe in your love for me and my love for you." she smiled.
