Hellbound With You novel Chapter 796

Chapter 796: Nine days

Alicia could feel it. She could also see it in his eyes. What he just said was the ultimate decision. No, a decision was actually an understatement. It seemed to be a purpose that he must fulfil at all costs. And no one... and nothing could change his mind.

Definitely it was because of their connection right now, but she just could tell for sure that he had been preparing for this his entire life. For so long, he had been waiting for this.

Like this had been his main goal in life all this time.

And it suddenly stung. Hard. And Alicia winced a little.

For a long while, they just stayed there, holding onto each other's gazes. Not saying anything, not moving and almost seem to be not breathing.

He was the first to give in and had his eyes flutter close. "Don't... " He choked out.

"Don't what?" Alicia asked him back, pretending not to know.

"Don't look at me like... that." he uttered in a breathless and a little tight voice.

She tried her best to swallow the lump in her throat.

"Are you... going to leave after nine days?" she asked him to distract herself before her emotions become a violent storm for him to withstand again.

"Yes." Just like her, he was trying to keep his calm as well.

"Why wait for nine days? There is something you must fulfil first, right?" Alicia was hoping he would voluntarily offer the information without her digging him for it. Though she would not push him to do it, she could hope.

He nodded. "Just like you, I am waiting for the day that these seven hundred years to be finally completed. And yes, you are right. I have something I must fulfil on that day."

"And you will take the thing you need from me that very same day, will you not?" She said it not in a questioning way because she was certain she was right about this.

He opened his eyes and stared at her. "Yes," he replied in a low voice. "Don't worry, I will promise you the thing I need from you won't be harmful to anyone. And I will give you my word, Alicia... nothing will happen to the witches."

"Are you.. included to that 'anyone'?" Alicia wondered out loud. She wanted to Imow this the most. Somehow, she felt that he was not included in it.

Ezekiel took a while before answering, "Yes."

Before Alicia could say the word 'liar', he seized her mouth. She knew he had seen it coming so he stopped her with the most effective way that he had known was possible. Damn you, Ezekiel... she could only curse him in her mind as she kissed him back, winding her arms around his neck as if to make sure he would not pull back from her anymore.

She knew he did not plan to go for a deep and long kiss. He had just planned to kiss her for a moment, just as a means of distraction. But she had grabbed onto his hair and tongued him, causing him to unable to pull back.

If she were to be perfectly honest to herself, to just admit to that voice which was calling out from within her... she Imew it was more than just lust. Unfortunately. Or was it fortunately? She could no longer tell. All she knew was that she wanted him. And she wanted him so bad. _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}
