After another round of intense lovemaking, Zeke finally managed to pull away from her. They were nowhere near sated yet, but he was starting to feel the urgent need to address the more important issues. They should not be putting it off any longer than necessary. Their couple of rounds earlier should be enough to last them until the more pertinent matters were settled.
So, he brought Alicia into his room and soaked her in the tub along with him. He had also used his demonic magic to lessen the effects of this world on her desires.
She was new here and furthermore, she was not a demon. She was defenseless against the dangerous effects of this world to her. If he did not put up a shield against it for her, she would slowly but surely be affected by it.
When she finally calmed down, Zeke did not waste a moment to start questioning Alicia. He wished he could just hold her and revel in her presence. But he knew that her presence here in this world was something he needed to deal with as soon as possible. As it stood, it was already something that should not have happened. She had no demonic powers nor was she part demon. Thus, it was not possible for her to enter the Underworld.
After Alicia told him everything - about how Sebastian and Zeres being the ones who used the spell to force the gates of hell to open and how she had been accidentally dragged in - Zeke was both relieved and at the same in disbelief.
He was just glad that no one had dragged her into this world like he had initially thought was the case and that she had fallen into this world by accident. He was also relieved that Alicia had stopped Sebastian from getting pulled into this world.
When Zeke found out about many of the dark secrets of this world, he had felt glad that he had never allowed Sebastian to get dragged into this world. It was because he knew how his brother was. He understood Sebastian's behaviour and character. And based on all that he had learned of the Underworld, Zeke realized that if Sebastian was the one who had ended up falling into this place, he would… he would let himself loose and turn into a complete monster. Once that limit has been breached, he would be nothing short of being unredeemable. And that was not what Zeke had hoped for that brother of his.
"Have you been… keeping well here, Ezekiel?" Alicia asked as she straddled his lap, her delicate hands caressing his handsome face. Her gentle motions sent ticklish tingles spreading outwards from his face, down his neck and shot straight to his groin.
Enjoying the intimacy that they were having together as a couple, Zeke held her hands and pressed it into his cheeks.
