Hellbound With You (WN)

The men who were standing by watching Alex, all rose the moment they saw him stand up. They were all prepared to go after him. They could see his eyes burning red with hunger. He was supposed to be going on a rampage by now but he still looked calm despite his fangs and nails now fully lengthened.

”Get ready, he ’s going to leap now, ” one of the men said.

”Hmm… where do you think he will go? City or forest? ”

”City, ” Riev answered while the rest said, ”forest. ”

Before Riev could complain that none of his comrades actually thought the same as him, Alexander leapt away like lightning and everyone immediately followed suit. Like dark shadows under the moonlight, they all headed towards the forest.

…

Meanwhile, Abigail was on her way back to the watchtower when she saw blurry shadows leaping away. She had heard Zeke talking to a man called Riev because they were closer to her than Alex was. She heard it while she was anxiously waiting for him inside the room. She didn ’t mean to eavesdrop. She just wanted to find out if they were still out there talking and if that was why Alex wasn ’t back yet. But what she heard was Zeke giving out orders to his men.

She could only deduce from that conversation that Alex was going to go on a rampage again, so she quickly left the room and ran as fast as she could to the watchtower. That guy who escorted her, Raven, was not there anymore. She had looked for him hoping to ask him for a lift to get there as fast as possible.

”No! Alex! Did they leave already? ” Her shoulders dropped as she looked up at the sky. Her heart was beating wildly. She shouldn ’t have left him. Why was he going on a rampage again? Was he alright? And why did Zeke not stop him?

As she continued running, someone landed from above in front of her. She was startled but the moment she saw who it was, she breathed out in relief.

”Zeke! What ’s going on? Why is Alex on a rampage again? ” she asked, utterly worried as she panted.

”He needs blood. ”

”H-huh? Blood? Didn ’t he already… ”
