Hellbound With You novel Chapter 652

Chapter 652 - Brutal

Pulling his own blade from his belt, Philip expectantly approached her and lifted his hand to slash at her. Yet his blade never reached her because before he knew it, he was being thrown backwards. The wall crumbled as his back smashed into it, creating an earthquake.

Alicia looked up and saw Zeres looking down at her. His eyes wide with mixed horror and barely suppressed anger.

And then, he turned and she watched him walked towards Philip. The mad witch was already stumbling over, trying to stand.

"My King... what did –" Philip was thrown to the ground this time even before he could fully straighten up. Zeres’ had kicked him over and over again without a single word, never allowing the male witch even a single break.

The mad witch eventually tried to fight back using his forbidden curses, but they were futile against Zeres. Because at that moment, Zeres looked like Lucifer himself incarnated. The torture continued until Philip was scrambling on his hands and knees, crawling towards Zeres and begging for mercy.

But Zeres lifted him, suspending him in the air. The mad witch who was already drenched in his own blood smiled, thinking that his king is finally appeased from the beatings given and willing to hear his plea.

Zeres’ eyes gleamed with frosty hellfire and the next moment, blood splattered around. Using his b.a.r.e hand, Zeres had gripped Philip’s neck, and in a blink of an eye, his head rolled on the floor followed by his body.

Alicia could hardly believe that the brutal man before her was Zeres. She never expected him to kill someone that way. Effortless and brutal. Without any hesitation.

When he turned to her, his silver hair and pale skin was painted in scarlet. The contrast was so vivid and the color of his eyes had changed too.

Slowly, he approached her and crouched before her. His hand reached out to brush her hair away from her face, but he halted the moment he saw his own blood-soaked hand in his field of vision. Gritting his teeth, he clenched his hand and dropped it.

He wiped his hand on his clothes and then placed them to be hovering above her head. Greenish and silverish glow enveloped Alicia once again. Zeres’ healing power was unusually warm and strong that Alicia could not even feel any more pain nor discomfort during the process. _{freёweɓnovel.com}

Slowly feeling better, Alicia opened her eyes and looked at Zeres. His eyes were back to their normal colour but the bloodl.u.s.t that was emitting from his body still cloaked around him heavily like a living creature. Even if he was quiet, his rage was obvious. She could tell he was angry – but not at her or the mad witch he just brutally killed – but towards himself.

He had yet to look her in the eyes, completely focused on her healing, first and foremost. It was then that Alicia remembered the time. She was certain it was past midnight now and she felt utterly relieved. Now she had to keep him here. Because she now realized something – that Zeres would not hesitate to kill to save her. Though the thought of it made her throat run dry and her heart squeeze hard. She could not help but feel afraid at the extent he was willing to go.
