Hellbound With You novel Chapter 875

Chapter 875 Gifts

This chapter is dedicated to @Sacogun! Thank you so much for the supergift!

In the past, Zeke had a hell of a hard time trying to kill his father's mistress. That witch queen who was turned into a vampire had ended up incredibly strong. Not just because she had ended up rivalling the strength and abilities of a blue-blooded vampire, but also because she could still use all of her abilities as a witch queen.

A blue-blooded vampire who can wield magic was nothing but bad news to them. Back then he just could not defeat her even by using his full abilities as the vampires' crown prince. He ended up having to utilize his demonic powers and even went full on demon in order to defeat her.

"You mean… I can still use all my powers as a witch? Every single one of them – even those when I was the witch queen?" Alicia was having a hard time believing it. She might as well be given a cheat sheet!

"Yes, Alicia. Why don't you test it out and see for yourself if that is true?" Ezekiel prompted her.

Alicia swallowed excitedly before hesitantly moving away from his embrace. It was just so good to be held by him that she was already getting so used to it and was loath to leave it.

Zeke held onto her naked waist as Alicia faced away from him. She lifted her hands and uttered some familiar and complex chants – wanting to test out the more powerful spells right off the bat. Her eyes flew wide open at the powerful magic that surged out from her. She was so shocked as the amount of power she could usually call forth when she was still a queen seemed to have doubled in strength!

Holy cow! What in blue blazes was this?

Her silvery twin blades appeared in her hands, the silvery magic causing some waves in the water and making the leaves dance without any wind.

"I can't… I just can't believe this…" she uttered in disbelief. But an extremely wide grin was helplessly spreading across her face.

His response was to plant a relaxed kiss on her cheek. She could feel him smiling. "Believe it, Alicia. This is how powerful you are now. No vampire can ever bring you down with the way you are currently. Of course, you know that is excluding Alex." Ezekiel added in that last bit somewhat perfunctorily.

"You… you knew all along that I would turn this powerful?" she asked. Somehow, this gave her a little feeling of unease.

She made the weapons disappear again and her magic slowly died down before she turned to face him again.

"Yes." He answered honestly. "I knew you would be strong. Very strong, in fact." An elegant shoulder shrugged rather nonchalantly.

Her unease seemed to escalate at that reply. And she found herself not knowing if this was something she should be happy about. Or should she start worrying?

"Ezekiel… why do I have the feeling that you had turned me into a vampire not only so we can finally be together, but also to make me this powerful? Is there a reason behind me needing to be this strong?" she did not try to hide her true thoughts from him.

He stared at her with those observant grey eyes.

"No, I never." He denied her claims.

"Really? You never gave anything special you possess to anyone?" _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

"I give things to my men. But I don't think I have a possession I can call special enough… so no. Well, except for that dagger I gave you months ago. Now that I think about it, where did you put that dagger?"

Alicia blinked. "That dagger is special to you?"

"My mother gave it to me." He told her simply.

"R-really?" she could not help but stammer at the knowledge. She never had expected that. He had given her that dagger so casually that time.

"Yes, Alicia. So where is it? Don't tell me you have misplaced or lost it." he did not look upset at her even when asking that, just mildly curious.

"I think Lilith had put it next to my dead body when I died. We should go retrieve it since I can hold it now, don't you think? I will help you think about your gift for the twins too, while we're at it. Right, I think we should actually get to it right now."
