Hellbound With You novel Chapter 718

Chapter 718 - Distraction

Meanwhile, Zeres had finally left the building he had entered a few hours ago. Jude who was waiting for him outside, threw his cigarette to the side as soon as he saw Zeres approaching the car.

Jude surveyed Zeres as he quietly entered and slumped his long body into the seat. His damp hair and that new set of clothes... Jude could already tell what had happened and he could only minutely shake his head.

"So? Did you get the information that you wanted?" Jude asked carefully as he noticed Zeres’ grumpy expression.

Zeres shut his eyes tightly together and leaned his head against the head rest, as if he was totally tired out.

"Yes." Was his short reply, before heaving out a heavy sigh.

"What happened in there? Don’t tell me... you killed her?"

Zeres fell silent for a while but eventually he opened his mouth again and spoke. "She’s a mad woman. There were a number of other humans’ remains all over her house. Remains of the men she had toyed with and tortured to death. She had been preying mainly on younger handsome men. And mostly were the humans she was able to put under her spells." Zeres explained that to Jude.

Jude winced. "How did you get the information from her, then?" he was a little afraid of hearing Zeres’ answer on this.

Zeres did not deign to answer that question, but blatantly ignored it outright, and just rattled off another address to him instead. Of course, Jude did not push his luck and pestered him anymore on that matter and just drove the car obediently to the place he had wanted them to go to next.

The trip was a long one, so Zeres just kept his eyes closed as if he was trying to get some sleep on the way. When he had entered into that room, hours ago, that woman had tried to dominate him, planning to do exactly the things Jude had told him he had suspected she would try to. Zeres could not even last for a few minutes and eventually had turned the tables around on her. He had easily overpowered her.

The woman was definitely a powerful witch. So it was just a simple task for her to overpower any mortal man she lures into her den. But unfortunately, he was not like those men that she was used to playing with. Zeres was certain that this woman knew who he was and the extent of his power, and yet... she still had daringly invited him over like this. She would not be so naïve to think that she could overpower someone like him. That thought made Zeres realize that this woman must have wanted something else more from him. She had wanted to experience being dominated this time by someone much more powerful than her... by a silver-haired male witch.

"You can leave me here now." he instructed, causing Jude to blink at him, not able to comprehend that for a few moments. _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}
