Hellbound With You

Chapter 80 Daredevil



Chapter 80 Daredevil

Abi sat as still as a statue as she listened hard to what was happening behind her. She heard a crack as something - maybe a fist? - made strong contact into someone's face. She had heard bones crack before, when Alex had stood on that man's hand at the bar and this sounded akin to that. Seconds later, she could hear more bones cracking, thumps and thuds. The murderous auras that came from behind her were extreme. She had never felt such incredibly dark and killing intent in her life!

Abi's heart began to pump wildly as ever because she could that the fight going on behind her was very dangerous. There were so many sounds coming from behind her but she couldn't make sense of them anymore and just as she was about to cover her ears, everything fell silent. 

"A-alex? Are you alright? I am opening my eyes," she said when she couldn't bear it anymore. She was worried to death about him and she desperately wanted to know if Alex was alright. She knew that he wasn't weak - in fact she had seen how dangerous he was when he took down that man in the bar - but still, she couldn't help but feel worried. 

"Alex!" she called out again and when she heard no response, she turned around but before she could open her eyes, a pair of large hands covered her eyes. 

"What a disobedient little lamb." She heard Alex's voice and she knew that he was the one holding her. 

"W-what's going on?" she asked but the man didn't respond. 

After half a minute, Alex finally removed his hands from her eyes. Abi looked at him and then looked behind him. There was no one around. 

"Where is…" she looked at him in confusion and with a million questions in her eyes. His glimmering eyes and his long black coat made him look like the most beautiful villain. Her eyes surveyed him and he didn't have any injuries at all, not even dirt on his clothes.

The man just ran his fingers through his hair as he let out a sigh.  

"Ah. He ran away," he replied. His expression was back to his usual laid back look as if nothing had happened at all.

"H-he?" 

"Mm. Your stalker."

"My stalker? I don't have a stalker," she argued. She had been working here for years now and she never experienced being stalked before - this was because Kelly had dealt with them all before she found out - but even then, this was the first time she had ever felt that kind of chilling feeling where she felt someone truly had murderous intentions towards.  

"You do… but I just beat him so he escaped," he insisted nonchalantly. Abi looked at him with suspicion but the man suddenly carried her and put her inside a car before he walked around and sat in the driver's seat. 

He started the engine and looked at Abi. 

"What, you're not happy that I am back?" he asked, flashing that mischievous yet enchanting smile that Abi had missed so much.

Abi was forced to return her attention to him.  

She knelt on the passenger seat and faced towards him. She rested her hands on his shoulders as she looked deeply into his eyes. That hellish look was gone, leaving no trace that it was ever there.  

"I am… I thought you weren't going to come," she told him as she bit her lip. "Thank you for saving me," she added and she hugged him.

Alex's mischievous smirk faded. For some reason, what she said made him look like he wasn't pleased, as if he didn't like that she had thanked him because he didn't deserve it.

But then, his mood was quick to change again. 

"What? Did you think that I died or something?" he asked smugly and Abi's eyes widened. 

She looked at him with wide eyes, and then, the next moment, her lips trembled. 

"I… I never… I would never think like that… I would never think that you're… that you're…" she stammered and then tears began to fall from her eyes. 

Alexander was speechless. He didn't get this girl. Why was she suddenly tearing up?

"Ugh… I can't believe this." He ran his fingers through his hair as he looked at the crying little lamb that was glaring at him. "My girlfriend isn't just a naïve little lamb and an unripe little fruit. She's also a crybaby." He shook his head, although he didn't look mad or frustrated. He cupped her little face and rubbed her tears away with his thumb. 

"How did a creature like you even end up with someone like me?" he asked and Abi puffed her cheeks. "Sigh… stop crying now –" 

"It's because you're saying such awful things. Why would you think that I would think that way?!" she argued like a wronged little kid.

Alex's mouth hung open. "So you're actually crying not because of what happened but because of what I said? You're so unbelievable, Abigail. I have no words left for you."

"Please don't say things like that again!"

"Hey, that was a joke, okay? I know that a little lamb like you won't even think about it. I know that you would probably even want to give a proper burial for the dead mosquitoes so… ah, what am I saying?" He shook his head and pinched the skin between his brows. 

"Take your seat, Abigail, and put on your seatbelt," he then said and the girl did as she was told. 

The next moment, he accelerated the car and the car flew like a bullet. 

Alex was waiting for her to scream or beg him to slow down but it didn't come. He looked at her and to his surprise, the girl's mouth even formed an 'O' as if she couldn't believe what was going on. In fact, she looked thrilled! 

He shook his head again. This was the same girl who just cried over a joke a while ago. The same girl… this little fruit…

All the girls Alex drove in his car like this cried and screamed and some even got traumatised and never wanted to ride with him again but this little lamb… how could she be so brave and so weak at the same time? What was she? 

Alex accelerated even more to gauge her reaction but the girl didn't show even a slight hint of fear. She was really a daredevil, he was sure of it now. 

The car then stopped in the middle of a beautiful bridge overlooking the city's skyline. 

He looked at Abi and took her hand. 

"Did your scratches finally heal?" he asked and Abi nodded. 

"Yes."

Alex inspected her hand and was glad to see that it was indeed better. He then looked at her with the sexiest, most seductive look in his eyes and that damned gorgeous and irresistible smirk on his lips and said, "Good. Because I'm going to make you pay your debts tonight."
