Hellbound With You novel Chapter 736

Chapter 736 - Belt

When Alicia returned to the VIP room, she was shocked to see what had initially started as a peaceful talk when she had left a while ago had now ended up in this commotion. The man who had been talking to Ezekiel was now covered in blood from head to toe, as dead as a log. What had happened in that short few minutes that she went out to speak with Zeres?

Alicia looked over at Ezekiel as he rose from his chair in a majestic and fluid motion. "Dispose of the body properly. Our business is now done here, we're going back." He said in a cool and flat tone. And as soon as Lucas nodded at his orders, he walked out the room.

Quickly, Alicia followed after him. She could not let her eyes stray from him. However, Ezekiel remained as still and quiet as usual throughout the trip and showed no inclination of having his memories being restored. Alicia sighed with relief inwardly and tightened up her vigilance.

It was already near dawn when they finally reached Ezekiel's place. Alicia watched him go about his usual routine around his own home. Taking off his coat, then going to the kitchen to pour himself a glass of blood. After that he leisurely walked over and sat down on that comfortable looking lounge chair by the window quietly again as he slowly sipped his drink from the crystal glass.

Watching him so silently still like that… Alicia suddenly thought that she could never get used to watching this man like this. Was he really like this every single night?! Somehow, this just could not seem to cease bothering her.

"I really wonder what's going on in that mind of yours," she mumbled to herself when suddenly, she remembered what Zeres had reminded her not to do before he left.

That warning made Alicia narrow her eyes. Why did Zeres just keep on insisting that Ezekiel could see her? Was it really possible that…

Alicia bit down on her lower lip. 'No, that's impossible!' she told herself, but her feet moved quickly and she rushed towards the statue of a man who was still there, unmoving since he had sat down. _{fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm}

She stood right before him, even putting her arms on her hips. He was staring out of the windows and his eyes did not even move when she stood right in front of him and blocked his view.

"Ezekiel!" she shouted out. "Can you actually see me?"

When there was literally no response, Alicia took another step, bringing her even closer to the living statue. "You're not just pretending right?" Alicia even waved her hands frantically over his face then moved to poke at his cheeks even though her fingers went through him.

He put the empty glass down on the side table and as if nothing had happened, he then walked away. Alicia still followed after him, though. She still tried to pester him. She felt that Ezekiel, this man would be someone who could never tolerate annoying things like what she was doing right now. She was waiting for him to snap and reveal himself, that he could actually see her. Though again at the same time, she was also praying that he would not.

"Are you annoyed now? I am going to continuously pester you like this if you keep on pretending, Ezekiel. I'm going to tell you first that I won't get tired doing this. You better make it known that you can see me now…" Alicia trailed off when she noticed that he started to undress himself.

He was removing the buttons of his shirt as he walked around at an unhurried and graceful pace. Alicia could not take her eyes off him even as he removed his shirt and was now already half naked.

Alicia was silenced as he was facing her way while undressing. He still did not make any eye contact with her at all. It was like he really could not see her.

His hands then moved to his belt and Alicia found herself not knowing whether to look away or keep her eyes on this peep show. She could not help but rake her eyes over the tattoos that were all over his body. And now, it was like her eyes were glued to his veiny, elegant hands as they unbuckled his belt in what felt like a slow motion.

And part of Alicia wondered if men usually take such a long time to unbuckle their belts and do it this slow…
