445 New queen (1/2)
As Alex sucked her blood from her neck, her body stiffened and she subconsciously clutched his hair hard because she had expected it to be painful but surprisingly, it wasn't.
She closed her eyes and her grip on his hair started to loosen up as her tensed body softened. She thought that she really shouldn't act like she was scared.
Abi was kneeling on the ground with Alex in her arms, waiting patiently for him to have his fill. Abi had expected him to keep going but after just a few seconds, he stopped. Alex groaned and the next second, he suddenly pushed her away.
Abi's eyes flew open in a shock. Why didn't he keep going? He didn't even drink much at all, just one gulp!
Alex's hands were on Abi's shoulders, holding her at arm's length. His fangs had lengthened and his eyes looked fierce, wild and bloody red. His body was shaking hard and he gnashed his teeth, as if he was trying very hard to stop himself from doing something he knew he shouldn't.
”A-alex… it's okay. I'm fine,” Abi told him but as she lifted her hands to touch his face, the ancient structure began to completely disintegrate around them.
Alex looked up and then like lightning, he grabbed Abigail and held her close against his chest and then he bent his knees a little before he jumped upwards. As they made their way up, flying, he held his fist in the air above his head and he smashed the huge debris falling above them into pieces. They were on their way out of the crumbling structure and Abi felt immense relief, not because they were out of the building, but because Alex seemed to have regained his strength. Did the little blood he drank help him?
Abi held tightly onto him, hugging him as hard as her human arms could, as she looked down at the collapsing Ziggurat. Alex had taken them both so high above the ground, so high that the dust from the large, falling structure didn't reach them.
The bright moon and the white aurora in the background as they flew midair was a breathtaking sight. The scene looked picture perfect.
…
Alex placed Abigail gently down on the snow and he pulled her hands off his neck almost immediately, as if he couldn't wait to get away from her. Before she could blink, he was suddenly gone from in front of her.
Alex suddenly appeared in front of Kai, who had seen them fly out of the building and had quickly headed to where Alex and Abi had landed. However, he didn't expect the greeting he received from Alex. The moment he saw Alex appear in front of him, Alex's fangs had already pierced through his skin and sucked his blood so fiercely as if the man was trying to suck him dry.
Kai was caught off guard because Alex had moved abnormally fast. He normally would have been able to at least evade Alex's fast attack but this time, he didn't see Alex lunge at him and therefore, he was unable to evade him.
