Hellbound With You novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417 The right place

In her dream, a woman wearing a black dress with a black veil covering her face was sitting in a room, wearing an intricate golden crown filled with all sorts of precious stones. Her body was covered with gold jewels, from her ears, neck, wrists down to her ankles. The high slit of her back dress revealed her long and slender leg.

She didn’t look as surreal as Alicia had that first time that Abi had seen her. This woman looked like an ancient, human queen who was fond of gold and precious stones. Her face was hidden behind the veil but judging from her physique and the way she dressed, she looked like a seductive villain.

Abigail also noted that her hair was jet black, not an unusual color like Alicia’s silver hair.

"Who are you?" Abi asked. Abi knew that the woman she was looking at wasn’t the witch queen that Alicia was looking for because the witch queen also had silver hair, like Alicia. She knew that from when Alicia had replayed the events leading up to Alex losing his memories.

The woman rose from her golden throne and slowly walked towards her. And then, in a split second, she appeared right before Abigail, cupping her face, causing Abi’s body to become paralyzed.

"I am the one you’re looking for," she answered, her beautiful voice sending shivers down Abi’s spine. "Come to me and I will give you the answers you have been looking for."

Abi tried to escape her grip but she couldn’t even lift her hand to push the woman away.

"Tell me who you are first!" Abi retorted but the woman didn’t answer. Instead, she let go of Abi’s face and turned her back from her.

"If you really want Alexander’s memories to return..." she glanced at Abi over her shoulder. "Come to the old well in the forest. Alone. I will be waiting, Abigail. Or else, your Alexander will die."

"Wait!"

The woman disappeared, leaving Abi confused. She really wished that she had heard that other voice too - the one who told her to stay away - but no more words came. The next moment, she blinked and when she opened her eyes, she found herself bathing in a pool of blood.

She trembled as she looked down at her hands. "Alex... Alex... where are you?" her lips trembled causing her voice to waver as she called out for her husband. The darkness started to be swallowed by the light and then, she saw herself crying. Alone. She looked around and saw no one.

She was slightly relieved that she did not see Alex. She didn’t want to see him covered in blood again.

But where was she? Whose blood was this?
