Hellbound With You (WN)

Alicia moved swiftly past him, blocking his way and looking up straight into those grey orbs gleaming in the dim light.

”Why did you mention a different name when he asked for mine? Who exactly is Alexa? ” she asked again even though Zeke have yet to answer her first question. ”Answer me, Ezekiel… ” her voice softened. ”Please… or I might go crazy from all these questions wreaking havoc in my head. ”

He simply gazed back at her silently. He looked at her as though contemplating whether to tell her more or just keep her in the dark. Alicia held her peace as long as she could, looking at his face intently, hoping to see if there were any changes to his expression.

Silence continued until Alicia began to bite her lower lip so hard due to her increasing frustration. This man… he was really going to drive her insane! How could he even hold back from speaking for so long?! If it were her, she would have broken the silence and at least said something. But then again, Ezekiel was not her.

”Stop that, Alicia. ” he finally spoke. However, that was not the words she was hoping for to come out of his lips! What happened to the answers to her questions?!

”What?! ” she could no longer hold back and yelled at him. It was starting again. Her emotions were going awry again.

She used to have more tolerance and could still be able to stay calm even when Ezekiel was behaving like this in the past. Him, refusing to give any answer was not something new to her at all. Ezekiel being like this was just so him, and yet, her current self somehow could not take it.
