"Zeke..." he gnashed his teeth in anger. Did he ask her to jump down knowing that there was a witch inside?
Before Alex could attack him again, he diverted Alex's attention to Abi. "Carry her. I need to check on her. Also, I didn't know there was a witch down there," he explained and Alex's eyes fell on Abi again.
"If you're lying, I'll kill you," Alex threatened and Zeke could only sigh, still surveying Alex's face to see if he remembered something.
Abi had lost consciousness when Alex lifted her up again, causing him to panic.
"Zeke!" he called out. "She's..."
Zeke turned and walked over to them. He checked her pulse and was relieved to find that she seemed to have just passed out.
"She just passed out, Alex. No need to worry," Zeke assured him and Alex's expression became a little better, although he still glared at Zeke with an expression filled with his murderous intent. "Go settle her down on your bed and change her clothes. I will check on her later after I deal with the witch." freewēbnoveℓ.com
Zeke then turned and followed the guards. He knew he was in trouble. He had messed up. He wondered what Alex would do to him after this. Are they finally going to have a real fight soon?
"Tch! How troublesome," he muttered to himself but when he looked at the witch he was following, he narrowed his eyes. It seemed this little wench of a witch was actually a step ahead of him and he was intrigued as to who this witch was who was powerful enough to actually foresee his next moves.
Zeke found Alex sitting beside the bed, keeping watch on Abigail. It seemed this guy didn't wait for him anymore and called a human doctor to check on her.
"It appears that the witch managed to enter the dungeon last night and waited there. She and her clan foresaw all this." Zeke broke the silence as he leaned against the door.
But Alex was silent. He just stared at the sleeping girl for a long while before his calm words left his mouth. "Tell me, Zeke. What the hell are you aiming for?" he asked and then he stood up. He walked over to him silently, but with sharp murderous eyes. "I knew you were up to something since the moment you asked me to attend the banquet last night."
Zeke sighed. But then, his expression changed. Zeke looked at him with a villainous look. "Well what do you think? You think I'm doing all this for no reason? You know I don't play mindless games, Alex. And what about you? Did you finally find out what was going on with you?" he retorted, serious as ever.
"I don't fucking know!" Alex hissed. His anger was leaking out. "I felt like I just experienced some kind of déjà vu when I jumped down the hole to save her and I don't know why. All I know is I hate it when she gets hurt and I wouldn't even hesitate to rip anyone to death, even if it's you, if something happens to her!"
