Hellbound With You novel Chapter 908

Chapter 908 His bride

It was finally the day of the wedding. Somehow the time just flew by and before Alicia knew it, her big day had arrived!

The Reigns castle had been busy and bustling since 2 am in the morning, but as soon as the sun suffused everything in a golden hue, things eventually settled down.

Since the groom and the bride could not be separated, they were both placed in the same room while getting prepared. The room was silent as Alicia was being prepped by a couple of hair stylists and a make-up artist.

Alicia and Zeke were both sitting on a wide bench. Their hands were intertwined, while their backs were against each other's, each facing the opposite directions.

While the two ladies were busy with Alicia, Zeke was quietly sitting there, staring at the bouquet of flowers on the table, seemingly in deep thoughts. If Alicia was looking at him now, she would see that his eyes had a gentle yet absorbed look that rarely could be seen.

"Yo, Zeke!" a familiar voice rang out when the door abruptly swung open. Alex emerged as Zeke lifted his gaze. There was no surprise in Zeke's face. In fact, he certainly looked like he had been expecting the man. Of course, this person had to come and bug him just before his wedding.

A wide smile was plastered all over Alex's face as he deliberately eyed Zeke suggestively from head to toe. "Looking pretty handsome right there, man." He teased and waggled his eyebrows as he entered, walking casually past Zeke towards Alicia. "Abi sent me to ask if she could come in later." Alex asked Alicia, the teasing tone complete gone when he spoke gently to her.

"Of course! She can come now, and she should bring the twins too if they are not sleeping." Alicia smiled at Alex, and he gave her a thumbs up while grinning.

Returning back to stand in front of Zeke, Alex bent over and whispered, smirking. "Nervous?"

Zeke ignored him. Causing Alex to chuckle. He then clapped his hand on Zeke's shoulder and continued speaking in a know-it-all manner. "Don't worry, Zeke. Being nervous on your wedding day is absolutely normal. I would know. I've gone through it myself. Just relax and take a few deeeeep breaths. Stop acting tough and deadpan, or you will end up fainting. Mark my words, Zeke." Though he seemed to be giving the advice for Zeke's good, the twinkle in his eyes somehow gave the impression that he might not actually mind that much if the groom would end up fainting due to his nervousness in facing his own wedding.

Alicia's shoulders shook a little as she chuckled quietly as she heard Alex's words. She could almost imagine Zeke's face as he listened to Alexander.

"I am right, right? Alicia?" Alex craned his head around Zeke to look at Alicia. But before Alicia could even respond, Alex had already returned his gaze to Zeke and said, "See? Alicia nodded. She absolutely agreed with me."

Zeke sighed, looking as though he just wanted Alex to stop talking. So he used the most surefire way to stop him. "I hear Alice crying."

Alex instantly straightened and cocked his head to the side, and then he was gone just like that. He did not even bother with closing the door, leaving Zeke shaking his head as he smiled faintly at the thought of his chatty long-time friend.
