Hellbound With You novel Chapter 681

Chapter 681: Someone

Zeres only saw her smaller frame before him jerk with the impact of the sword as everything in his mind died and his eyes went blank. No!! In his mind, he was already roaring madly and there was that immense pressure to just let loose and howl out his anguish.

"ALICIA... ALICIA... ALICIAAAA...!!!" Her name was reverberating over and over in his mind, overflowing his heart, and causing little electric shocks in each and every cell in his body. However, outwardly, he was frozen as stiff as the thousand-year-old glaciers in the furthest part of the northern poles.

It seemed as though time had stopped. All the summoned demons too had been frozen in their movements and were halted in place as if something had paralyzed them. The spinning and undulating haze around the vortex looked as though it too, just suddenly froze up.

The world suddenly came to a complete halt and no sounds could be heard. The surroundings have become utterly quiet. The kind of quietness that raises the fine hairs on your skin and sends uncontrollable shivers up and down your spine. It definitely was not one of those calm and peaceful tranquil moments.

On the ground, Lilith who had been observing what was happening around her closely, had fallen on her knees with her palms covered over her mouth. Silent tears flowed from her eyes while Kyle and Lucas stood behind her, utterly shocked as their gazes were fixedly staring at these two persons, Alicia and Zeres. Their hearts were literally in their mouths, wondering what was to be with their fates. Why was it that fate had to deal such a disastrous blow to these people that they had come to care and love? Were the gods so unfair?

Alicia wondered if she had the same look on her face when Riev had died in her arms during the time of their battle with Dinah. No, Alicia was certain the pain she had experienced and reactions at that moment could not even hold a candle to what Zeres was going through right now. She could feel the great difference. It was agonizingly obvious. Zeres was just experiencing too much agony that Alicia could identify even in her bad state that her looking at him was exceptionally unbearable. Why... why was this man always doing this to her? Why could he end up sacrificing everything for her and now, he was even crying like this for her as if... as if she were someone so very dear to him... as if she were his life? Just what was she to him? She could feel the answer just hovering at the edge of her consciousness. But every time she tried to think things through, her blurry mind and lagging strength just could not keep up. _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}
