Hellbound With You (WN)

Raven had gathered the men the moment he heard word from Alicia that Alex was coming to speak with them. The men were back to their best form. In fact, they felt a little stronger than they did the day before. Was it because of the healing potion the witch princess gave them? Or did she put something in the food they ate?

The men were not allowed to drink blood. They were not of royal blood so they were not exempt from the law. In fact, some of them, including Riev, had never tasted blood since they hadn ’t met their lifemate yet. But despite that, the men were still quite powerful, something that made Alicia wonder how strong these men would be if they actually drank blood.

In no time, Alexander landed in their midst with Abigail wrapped from head to toe in a cozy, warm but large coat. Alex put her down on the bench next to Alicia.

Seeing that none of Zeke ’s men was in a bad condition, Alex correctly deduced that this was most likely because of the witch princess. He had seen just how many of those creatures had attacked them last night and these men fought with all their might. Coming out unscathed from that horde of strong hybrids was impossible, even for them, unless, of course, if they had the support of a powerful witch. This was why Alex seriously thought that vampires and witches weren ’t born to be enemies. If only these two races could join together, then they would be unstoppable. But then again, he thought that this probably wouldn ’t be ideal. A pairing like that would mean that groups would end up becoming more and more powerful and they could go against the Reign family if they decided to. A civil war would break out for power and that was not something they wanted to happen. Of course, that would only happen if he and Zeke weren ’t around but even then, it wasn ’t a hand that they wanted to bet on.

”We are going to attack them today, ” Alex declared, causing everyone to look at him with surprise. Even Abi and Alicia were shocked.

”I have found their lair, ” he continued. His imposing aura was starting to blaze uncontrollably despite him just talking calmly like that.

”May I speak? ” Alicia hesitantly rose from her seat.

”Speak. ” Alex said, causing her to sigh in relief.

”Are we not going to ask for help? Judging from the sheer number of those hybrid creatures, I believe we would need back-up. I can call on the witches living around this area to help, ” she suggested.

There was a short silence after that but it was obvious that Alex didn ’t want any more people involved. However, he glanced at Abigail and surprisingly agreed with Alicia ’s suggestion. It seemed he only agreed to lessen Abigail ’s worries.

”Any more suggestions? ” Alex asked.

Alicia took her seat, indicating that she didn ’t have any more to say, so Alex glanced at Raven.
