Hellbound With You (WN)

Chapter 541: Devil

Zeres ’ rugged breathing slowly settled. The pain was gone, and he was still very much alive. He felt the weight on top of him and his eyes widened.

He lifted his body up and held the woman who was slumped on him securely in his lap, both arms surrounding her. Fear etched on his face as he slid his hands to Alicia ’s shoulders, giving her a gentle shake. He won ’t forgive himself if the queen died because of him!

”Q-queen… ” he uttered, praying that what she said earlier was true – not for his sake but for hers! That she could save him without sacrificing herself.

Fortunately, she was still breathing. Her chest still moved up and down slightly, showing that she was just knocked out from exhaustion. He let his tensed shoulders droop a little as the queen rested on his chest. A deep and long sigh of relief escaped his lips.

”Zeres. ” Someone called him and he looked up.

The sight of the woman looking down at him made Zeres ’ body froze again. Abigail smiled gently at him as she knelt beside him.

Zeres ’ lips parted, but no words came out. He just stared at her, eyes filled with overflowing emotions.

”I am so glad you ’re fine, Zeres. ” Abi said and she hugged him, along with Alicia. ”I ’m so glad. ” She teared up.

The man closed his eyes. He already remembered. Everything. He didn ’t know how and what made him remember but they were back, his real memories were back.

And that was why he couldn ’t believe what he was seeing right then. He remembered that Abigail died and he couldn ’t even hug her. But now, here she was, alive and hugging him.

”I… ” he started. ”I am so happy to see you again… Abigail. ” He said and Abi pulled away, wiping her tears as she smiled at him.

”Me too. ” She replied and then she turned. ”Alex too. ” She added and Zeres followed her line of sight.

Alexander was there, sitting on a small rock. His elbows on his knees and those familiar dark eyes peering through the strands of his hair, meeting Zeres ’ gaze.
