Chapter 298: Chapter 297 Witch

Chapter 297 Witch

She looked around but all she could see was darkness.

She started to cough and gasp for air. No… what was going on? She couldn't breathe.

Alex's face began to appear in Abi's head. It was happening again. This was how she had felt when she was losing hope. When she needed Alex. She didn't know what had gone wrong. She was supposed to just sit here, endure the terrifying darkness and train herself. She was not expecting any more than that. So what was this? Did Zeke trick her? Was she actually here to die?

Tears began to fall from her eyes. No. This couldn't be happening again.

She struggled, thinking that this was just some illusion or something.

Her mind was starting to go hazy when her eyes finally saw something in the darkness. Something, no, someone was walking towards her. And it wasn't an animal. It was a… person… and it was a woman.

Abi's eyes widened in shock and she coughed again. She couldn't see the woman's face but she seemed to be surprised that Abi could see her.

The thing that was strangling her was getting tighter. Abi was going to lose consciousness. She needed to breathe. Was she going to die? No. She couldn't be killed just like this!

Abi gritted her teeth as she shut her eyes. She refused to die here, not when she had finally found Alex. She wouldn't!!

Suddenly, an agonizing scream left her mouth and then, something seemed to break. It seemed she managed to break whatever took hold of her and she was able to breathe again.

As she coughed, she felt strong, warm arms wrap around her from behind.

…

Alex heard a yelp as she fell. His eyes widened in shock as he stared down the hole. His body was acting strange. He was starting to tremble and before he knew it, he moved to follow her. However, a strong arm held his shoulder, stopping him.

"And what do you think you're doing? Are you going to jump down there?" Zeke was looking at him with utter disbelief. A smirk was curved on his lips as he slowly shook his head.

But Alex didn't seem to hear him. "Let go," he said. His voice was hard and cold. Danger was evident in his voice and Zeke knew he was close to bursting out of control.

Zeke's lips twitched and he bent even closer to him.

"Listen, Alex, haven't you wondered why you are acting like this? I personally think that… that maid is actually a witch…" he whispered and Alex's eyes instantly dilated as he looked at him. "The reason why I'm punishing her in the harshest way is because of this. Look at you… it's almost as if you're possessed! And the fact that you are acting like this towards her alone gives credence to my theory. This is the first time I've seen you act like this. It's a pretty reasonable assumption, don't you think? "

Alex couldn't speak. What Zeke was saying made sense. What was happening to him, to his body, was a strange and alien feeling to him and he couldn't explain why and yes, it was only towards her!

"I think that witch in disguise must have put some spell on you that moment she approached you last night at the ball. That's why you've suddenly become obsessed with her and are even willing to defy me just to save her. I'm afraid she might end up fully taking over your body if this keeps going on," Zeke continued, speaking like a devil on Alex's shoulder, tempting him.

"That's why you should listen to me and not go after her. The spell she cast on you will soon disappear the moment she… dies."

That last word that came out of Zeke's lips made Alex's body freeze. His fists clenched into tight balls and his eyes blazed golden.

"Now come, Alex. Don't bother with her and come with me. Let her rot down there and di –"

Before Zeke could finish his sentence, Alex's fist flew towards Zeke's face, but Zeke managed to react in time and it just grazed the corner of his lips.

But then, another blow flew towards Zeke's chest and in a blink of an eye, his back crashed against the wall, creating a blast-like effect.

As the dust settled down, Zeke just leaned by the dent on the wall his body created. That was a nearly lethal blow. He actually hit him, that damn guy!

A smile curved on his face as he wiped the blood from his lips with his tongue. "Tch! This stupid immortal," he muttered to himself, looking amused, and at the same time intrigued, by all the new turn of the events. 'Did he finally remember something? He managed to hit me, meaning, he must be back to his usual self? Or was that for just a moment again?'

Zeke waited and finally, Alex came out of the hole with Abi in his arms. Zeke's eyes zeroed in on Alex to gauge his expression, to see if something had changed, when he felt something was off. Zeke's eyes then fell on Abi and the first thing he saw were the marks around her neck, as if something had strangled her.

His eyes immediately narrowed and the next moment, like a lightning strike, Zeke jumped down the hole.

Alex gritted his teeth as he put the girl down. He saw it, someone was down there.

"Are you okay?" he asked, worried.

She was pale and she seemed to be having a hard time breathing. He held her face, making her look at him. She coughed again and Alex gently rubbed her back.

The next moment they heard noises coming from below. Though it was quick, the earth moved for a moment as if there was an earthquake.

Zeke emerged from the hole after that, holding a half dead woman.

The palace guards who felt the trouble coming from underground arrived and Zeke told them to shackle the woman.

"Tie her up. She's a witch," he said and Alex finally stood up.

"Zeke…" he gnashed his teeth in anger.
