Hellbound With You novel Chapter 345

Chapter 345 Ordinary man

Alex wiped his hands on his pants before winding the window down for her. Abigail's gaze was still locked onto the steering wheel which had turned from one circle into two half circles.

"Little lamb, get in the car now," Alex said, trying to keep his tone as normal as possible but of course it didn't escape Abi.

She turned to him with questions in her eyes. "Why do you want to leave so badly? What's wrong with this place?" she asked.

Alex didn't know how to answer her question because really, there was nothing wrong with the place itself. It was just that damn vampire that was wrong but he couldn't really say that to her, could he?

"I just don't like it," he said curtly.

Abigail still didn't get it but by now, her hunger was getting the better of her. Her stomach had been complaining since she had a whiff of the delicious smell of food inside that inn. Her mouth had already started watering from the anticipation.

"Alex… can we please just stay here tonight? Pretty please?" she batted her eyelashes at him as she spoke, trying out a new technique. However, this was followed by a loud roar that came from her stomach.

Alex was stunned when he saw her batting her eyelashes at him. His heart thumped in his chest for a wild second and then, he heard the roaring of her stomach. He was defeated. All it took was her batting her eyelashes at him and a rumbling stomach to admit defeat.

Alex sighed as he opened his door and got out. Abi was relieved that he didn't put up a fight and that she didn't have to use her trump card. But then again, if this was the result of her new technique, then it might be worth perfecting it for future use. She giggled inwardly as she waited for Alex. She was so giddy that she reached out and grabbed his hand and they walked hand in hand back into the inn.

Alex's bad mood immediately evaporated the moment her fingers intertwined with his. He squeezed her hand back as a small smile formed on his face. He thought that this might not be such a bad thing after all. He would show that damn ugly vampire who this little lamb really liked and that that title belonged to only him.

The two of them went straight into the dining area. Abigail had already ordered the food so a table was already laid out for both of them at one corner. They were the only guests so they had the place to themselves.

An array of dishes were laid out on the table and the moment they both sat down on their chairs, Alex started piling food on Abi's plate. She started to dig in because she couldn't wait any longer, while Alex just kept replenishing her plate. Every now and again, Alex's eyes would dart back towards the man standing at the counter to check whether or not he was watching them.

When Alex noticed that he was, Alex then quickly picked up a piece of vegetable and held it up towards Abi's mouth. "Little lamb, try this one," he said to her and she immediately complied and opened her mouth to take a bite.
