Chapter 262: Chapter 261 Promise me

Chapter 261 Promise me

"Don't go anywhere, Alex," she told him.

"I won't. So please don't think about what happened, okay. Don't think about that; just think about our happy times together, okay?" he smiled, kissing her forehead. Although Alex tried his best to make her feel at ease, to stop her from worrying, Abi couldn't do it. Her fear had taken hold of her and it wasn't going to let her be.

"But… I'm scared Alex. You're not going to die, right? Tell me… please… tell me you're going to live. I'm scared that the reason why you're not pulling out this dagger is because… is because…"

"Shh…" Alex planted a kiss on her lips. He could see she was starting to cry again. "Don't worry… this…" he averted his gaze away from her and looked at the dagger on his chest. "I actually made you miss my heart," he looked up and flashed her a sarcastic smile.

"Then why are you not pulling it out?"

"Well, this dagger can only be pulled out by a powerful witch. There's a curse on this too. It will suck the memories out of the person who pulls it out," he answered, making Abi's brows crease in confusion. She was still unable to fully grasp all these supernatural things she had seen and heard. Everything was still hard for her to believe, but she didn't care anymore. What bugged her at that moment was the unsettling feelings she had. She felt like somewhere in Alex's statement was a lie and she hated herself for doubting him. Maybe she was just being paranoid?

"R-really?" she asked, asking for his confirmation once again. She so wanted to believe him, that all they needed to do now was find a powerful witch to pull the dagger out.

"Yes, Abigail. Don't worry anymore. This dagger won't be in my chest anymore once you wake up. You have to think positive to get through this surgery," he encouraged and Abi finally looked a little better.

A nurse came in and asked Alex to leave as she placed a mask over Abi's nose and mouth.

"Wife, I need to go now. I'll be just outside. I won't leave until the surgery is over," he told her and she cupped his face and kissed him. She started to feel drowsy as whatever she was breathing in took effect.

"Please promise me… you'll be here when I wake up. Promise me, Alex. Please," she begged and Alex bumped his forehead on hers as he uttered his answer.

"I promise, Abigail."

"Thank you, I love you."

"I love you too. I will wait for you outside."

"Mm. Wait for me outside, hubby..."

Once Abi finally lost consciousness, Alex bent and kissed her forehead again, looked at everybody's faces and nodded at them, before he glanced at his wife one last time and left.

…

The moment Alex stepped out from the room, someone grabbed him by the collar and pinned him against the wall, hard.

"What is the meaning of this? Huh, Alex?" the oh-so-calm and unfathomable Zeke looked so angry. The knuckles on his fists, which were holding on to Alex's collar tightly, turned white as Zeke glared at this damn foolish man before him.

"Relax, Zeke," Alex smirked, but then he quickly covered his mouth as he coughed. It wasn't a healthy sounding cough and when he took his hand away from his mouth, it was filled with his blood. Alex looked at his hand and then he wiped his mouth with his forearm, staining his shirt red.

Zeke gritted his teeth as he let go of Alex's collar. He watched Alex slide down the wall and sit on the floor, as if his superhuman strength had left him.

"Don't worry about me. You go inside and save my wife –"

"Ha!" Zeke snorted. His rage was becoming more inflamed at each passing second as he thought about Alex and what he had just done. Zeke then squatted before Alex so that their eyes were on the same level. "What makes you think that I would keep my promise and save her when you're the one who broke our deal?!" He smirked devilishly.

Alex leaned his head by the wall, closed his eyes as if he was in pain, and wiped the blood that dribbled from his mouth, with his wrist.

"Had you come and helped me out, this wouldn't have happened, Zeke," Alex opened his eyes and smiled despite the pain, like he was enjoying Zeke's angered face.

"Don't make me laugh! You know that had I barged in, Abigail would be dead by now! Xavier would have truly killed Abigail if he thought for a second that his plan wouldn't succeed! His plan was to kill you but if that failed, then he would have been satisfied to have you watch her die, to experience the pain and torment he had experienced in your hands."

"Of course you know that," Alex responded. "Had you barged in and something happened to her, you would have been the first one I would kill," he added with a smile and he coughed up blood again.

"Stop playing around, Alex," Zeke said, becoming more serious than ever. He couldn't contain his anger anymore. "Don't you dare think I will save her now. You broke the deal. You were supposed to stay alive. That's all you had to do for me to save her, but it seems you couldn't even do that! Useless!"

"I'm still alive, Zeke."

"Don't give me that bullish*t, Alex. You're dying! We both know it." Zeke retorted, sounding sure as if he just said that the sun would rise in the East and set in the West. "Damn it, Alex! Why the hell did you let this happen?!"

Alex finally looked at him with a serious gaze. He held Zeke's shoulder and moved his face near his shoulder. "Listen, Zeke…"
