Hellbound With You (WN)

A sharp breath escaped Alicia ’s lips as Zeres ’ fangs slowly sank into her.

She couldn ’t explain the feeling, maybe because her battered body was a little numb now. It wasn ’t as painful as she had initially thought it would be. It was less painful compared to the throbbing pain from her deep wounds. But maybe, it was all because his lips and breath were just too hot that all her senses were forced to downplay everything else but the scorching heat on her neck.

But Alicia was soon jolted back to reality as she felt the heat get even more intense compared to a minute ago. It felt as if Zeres was turning into a literal burning furnace. She briefly entertained the thought of perhaps she herself might get burned along with him any time soon because the fire on her neck seemed to be spreading in her body. It still did not cause her any kind of pain surprisingly with the increasing heat, but her throat began to dry up as if she was suddenly brought to a desert and he was the merciless sun. There was that sudden thought that it could be any time that she was going to pass out, not from pain but from thirst and heat.

Her body started to lose the little strength left in her. It was then that she realized she was being silly and could have just pulled away after giving that few drops of blood that Zeres needed. However, as she was trying to act on her decision, she noticed with slight alarm that she couldn ’t move. That feeling of alarm could not even take root quick enough before she suddenly started feeling like her body and mind were floating – like an extremely light and fluffy cloud drifting away on a light summer breeze.

A sudden presence of someone ’s hand clamping down firmly on her shoulder had her refocus on the situation and she fought to get her eyes opened. Without warning, her eyes snapped open – bright and alert – as if awoken from a deep, intense state of meditation.

And then, she was pulled back. ”That ’s enough. He ’ll kill her! ” Alicia heard Riev ’s voice rumbling next to her ear. It appeared that he was the one who pulled her back from that limbo and was now letting her weakened body lean against his chest.

Riev took a step back, with Alicia in his arms. Ezekiel didn ’t stop him, so he presumed that the amount of blood Zeres had consumed directly from Alicia was indeed enough.
