Hellbound With You novel Chapter 920

Chapter 920 What had gone wrong?

Caught between denial and intense terror, Alicia could only stand where she was, staring at the fading remnants of black smoke before her. She could not even make herself understand what had just happened. The gate of hell was suddenly gone…? Ezekiel… her love… her husband. He too, had disappeared along with the gate.

She fisted her hands into her hair, muttering to herself that this was another nightmare. There was no way that this could be real. She just needed to wait for a few seconds, and soon she would wake up in Ezekiel's arms again, tangled with him in their bed. But seconds stretched into minutes. Yet nothing happened. Her heart seemed to be stretched taut and was on the edge of splitting into two.

"No!!!" she screamed again. This is not happening! He had asked her to trust in him, that all would be well. Stretching her arms forward, twin beams of light shot forth from her palms. It was an energy so powerful it filled the whole dungeon. Only this time, it was no longer coming from the demonic darkness. It was a powerful magic only a silver haired witch could ever wield. Her still glowing body had brightened even more as her powers strengthened to a dangerous degree. Until her dark hair started to bleach itself and turned a shimmery silver again. Her appearance was also returning to what it was when she was the witch queen except for her eyes which was now as red as blood. The type of crimson red that belonged only to the vampire royals. All of those who were watching on in the dungeon were trying to hold their ground as they felt the pressure coming off in waves due to the escalating power unleashed by Alicia.

"What the hell??! Her power's getting more dangerous!" Alex exclaimed loudly, glancing over at Zeres who was still standing within his own circle. "What is she trying to do?" he shouted at Zeres, wanting an answer.

Zeres had a grave expression on his face, indicating that whatever Alicia was trying to do right now was nothing but bad news. "She is attempting to open the gates of hell again. On her own." Zeres replied grimly, gritting his teeth.

"What? She can do that?" Alex's eyes widened at Zeres' words. He did not expect that Alicia had the power nor the knowledge to do such a thing.

"We need to stop her." Zeres did not bother answering Alex. His body glowed with bright silvery lights as well and he stepped out of his circle and approached Alicia. Everyone else held their breaths as they looked on, only to jerk in shock when they saw Zeres being thrown back when he tried to cross a certain space around her.

"Tell me, Zeres! Can she even open the gates of hell?" Alex asked again. He needed a verbal response from Zeres. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}
