Hellbound With You novel Chapter 285

Chapter 285 Her turn

Abi just stared up at him. Her body slowly relaxed, maybe because she finally let out her anger. Or maybe, she softened up again, hearing these words he was saying, calling himself a monster like it was a fact.

She almost reached out to hug him and tell him he wasn't a monster, that she had never seen him as a monster, but she refrained herself.

"No. I'm not scared of you," she told him almost insolently, causing him to narrow his eyes. "I just… hate… cheating, womanizing bastards…" she continued as her eyes wandered around.

"Cheating…" he echoed. "Why would you say I'm cheating?"

Abi blinked and said nothing, her brain somewhat shutting down from her slip up.

"Speak," Alex commanded.

Abi found herself in a dilemma. Oh no! How was she going to get out of this? Of course Alex wouldn't think he was cheating if he had no partner, no wife to cheat on!

She had slipped up by calling him names and now she had to think of an excuse, something that would make sense! She couldn't very well tell him that it was because he was a married man. Her eyes wandered around again and her eyes caught some objects sitting on top of the bedside table.

There was a necklace with a couple of rings on it, sitting there. Those were their wedding rings and her engagement ring. Upon seeing them, Abi's heart squeezed so tight that she could hardly breath. She almost cried.

"Aren't you… married?" her voice became weak as she spoke, not tearing her eyes off the rings.

Alex creased his brows and followed her line of sight.

"Those were wedding rings, right?"

She looked at him and their eyes met.

"You thought I was married because of those?"

"Well… yes."

He bit his lips and looked at her in disbelief.

"Those aren't mine. And I am certainly not married," he said, sounding so sure of himself.

"Then whose are they?"

He looked at the rings again with a frown on his face.

"I don't know."

She thought that maybe she wasn't the only one suffering. That Alex, despite completely forgetting about her, was fighting his own battles as well. She was the reason why Alex lost his soul and forgot about her. All this happened to him because he wanted to save her. Maybe her Alex knew this would happen. Maybe right now, he was somewhere in there, fighting as hard as she was to free himself from this nightmare. Abi could only believe in that thought, that they were both still fighting for love. _{frёeweɓηovel.coɱ}

This time, it was her turn to make him come to her and chase after her and submit to her, wholly.

Alex chuckled at the very first rejection he received. Somehow, he finally found something interesting in this damn boring world. He was going to seduce this little lamb and he couldn't wait to see the day she would willingly come to him and beg him to touch her. He had no doubt that she would.

"Please get off me," she then told him, steeling herself for the backlash that she would no doubt receive from him, but to her surprise, the man obediently got off her and plopped himself beside her.

He faced her, nonchalantly leaning his head on his palm as he looked at her.

Abi rose and her feet just reached the floor when he spoke again. "Your job is to watch me twenty-four seven. Meaning, you should sleep with me in my room, be with me when I bathe and things like that, no?"

There was a taunting vibe in his voice as he said that, as if he was more than certain that Abi wouldn't last.

"Now I'm going to take a bath. You should come with me, little lamb, or else you will be punished," he told her, flashing her a triumphant smirk.
