434 Until the end (1/2)
”Wouldn't it better if you take me outside and just let Alex destroy this place?”
”No. We can't do that. Not until we find out the answer to our questions. Either we capture the person who is behind this or we need to find a way to save our queen. She will definitely know.”
This place wasn't favorable for them. There was no wind, no trees and very little space. The men were doing their best to fend off the hybrids from entering the tunnel and Alex was also fighting them down below.
He punched and kicked and clawed and stabbed them but when one went down, another one came to take its place. It was never ending. Abigail saw this and she turned to Alicia.
”I think we need to give the sword to him, Alicia!” said Abi, panicking. But Alicia could no longer pay attention to her. The hybrids' number seemed to have tripled and it looked like they now focused their attention on them instead of Alex.
”Shit! It's hard to fight! They're trying to push us back into the tunnel” she heard one of the elite vampire curse and she realized he was right. They were being pushed back and it was getting more cramped.
”Damn it! This is bad. We have to relocate!!” Raven said and he forced his way towards Abigail. However, Alex suddenly landed in front of Abi.
He was smiling at her then his smile faded as he hugged her and planted a quick kiss on her forehead. His body was cold and his eyes looked like they were burning like a golden sun. ”I'm sorry, Abigail. I don't want to show you this but… I have no choice,” he whispered as he pulled the sword from its scabbard.
The next moment, he was gone.
He appeared in front of the elite vampires and with one slash, a number of bodies rolled on the floor, clearing the cramped spot. The vampires could finally move again and fight with ease.
Alex continued taking down countless vampires, swinging his sword and fighting like a human. But he wasn't human. He had his unrivalled speed and strength. The glow in his eyes was so bright that he looked so different. He had totally switched from a vampire to a demon in human form.
He had become like a dark tornado himself and the atmosphere that was already tense and filled with bloodlust began to be enveloped with the kind of darkness that was enough to make anyone tremble in fear. It was almost like they had been transported to the underworld. Everyone knew, including Abi, that this darkness, this hellish atmosphere was created by Alex.
The elite vampires and witches couldn't help but freeze in awe and fear because it was like a beast was finally let loose. He wasn't like his mindless rampaging self. He was aware of everything that was happening. But what made him so much more terrifying was the fact that he was smiling, as if he was truly enjoying his killing spree.
Even if she knew Alex had already killed countless lives before, seeing him doing it again now with her own two eyes made Abi's heart go numb. She knew this was inevitable and that these creatures were dangerous. They could be used to harm humans next if they were allowed to be let loose. They were creatures that weren't supposed to exist.
Still, Abi wished that Alex didn't need to do this anymore. He looked so different again, as if she was seeing another Alexander, the Alexander that had been long forgotten. He was like a living, breathing darkness. His eyes were merciless, ruthless even. There was no sign of her doting husband at all. This sight finally made Abi realize the extent of the hellish world that Alex had told her about. This was his real hell, the hell he didn't want her to see, the hell she vowed she would embrace for her to be able to stay beside him.
