Hellbound With You novel Chapter 834

Alicia was surprised to see that they had materialized back in the wooden cabin they just left this morning. She had never thought he would bring them both to return to this place. Was it a conscious or unconscious decision? She wondered about it.

But that was the least of her concerns at this moment. Because even though Ezekiel's darkness had lessened, his one eye was still dark. So dark that you could not see any whites in his eyes at all.

"Are you… okay now Ezekiel?" Alicia asked him gently. Their position was still the same as right before they disappeared from that lonely forest road.

He did not speak for a long time. But she knew that he could hear her and see her. The fact that his hold on her tightened as she spoke to him told her so.

She was glad that the terrifying bloodlust coming from him was gone but she could not quite help but feel worried and uneasy because there were still no signs of his one fully black eye returning to normal.

"You are…" he finally spoke. That sinuous voice made her heart race, but it was not due to fear. It was never fear.

"Hmm?" she hummed, waiting patiently for what he was going to say.

"You are doing that again." he spoke slowly.

She blinked. Unsure on what he was talking about until he lifted his hands and held her wrists.

"Oops…" she finally realized that she was still pinching his cheeks, and a smile curved on her face as she quickly let go of her punishing grip on him. "Sorry…" she tiptoed and kissed his cheeks that were slightly reddened due to her squeezing them, ever so gently as if to soothe him.

When she pulled away and looked at him again, Ezekiel was very still. She waited for him to speak but he just stared back at her before he tore his gaze off her.

His gaze fell on her hand and his face darkened. It was then that Alicia noticed all the wounds and slightly dried up bloody streaks that the vampire's sharp nails had caused. It was also then that she realised that those raised welts were somewhat stinging. But she ignored the pain. _{freēwēbηovel.c૦m}

"I'm fine." She reassured and immediately smiled at him. "As you can see, they're just little scratche –"

Alicia could not even finish her sentence because Ezekiel had already bent his head and started to lick the blood. She involuntarily stiffened at the damp and slick feel of his incredibly hot tongue gliding against her skin. It was as if every single one of her nerves were at attention and were extremely sensitive to his touch.

Yet she could not bear to open her mouth and tell him to stop. She allowed him to lick up the blood, sighing as if his every lick helped release the coiled-up tension from her shoulders.

But all too soon, he stopped.

"Heal your wounds, Alicia." He said in a low voice.
