Hellbound With You

Beads of sweat rolled down the sides of her neck and slipped down only to get lost between her cleavage. She should be infuriated at those words he had just spouted. Yet she found herself picturing a scene in her head again. It was a vision where she had her arms languidly curled around his neck and tugging him closer. All the while, she was begging him to kiss her as if… his lips were the salvation that she wanted… that she needed.

Her eyes involuntarily trailed down and stared at his lips. Those stupidly, seductive lips were just so tempting that her eyes were drawn to it no matter how hard she tried to look elsewhere. Her body was starting to rebel against her will and before she knew it, her lips too had followed along to rebel. They had parted, wanting her damned enemy's lips to be pressed against hers now.

Without warning, he pulled away in a swift move, taking his sizzling heat along with him. For the first time, she was so glad that she was saddled with this weak and slow body of hers right now. Because her treacherous hand had actually tried to grab onto him to stop him from pulling away!

She bit down on her lips so hard as she lifted her gaze at him, infuriated beyond reason at what was going on with her. She was unable to keep up with the pace and accept how her body was reacting so positively to him. Should it not be the opposite?!! She raged at herself inwardly.

He was kneeling with her tucked between his legs. His hands were still holding onto her wrists. His face was inhumanly black again. No emotion betrayed his thoughts as he looked down at her with those intensely gleaming eyes.

"Demon," she hissed out between her gritted teeth. "Stop using whatever demonic magic you have on me and play fair already." She complained.

One of his brows arched slightly and the corner of his lips lifted a little. "Let's get this straight first. No one's using any demonic magic on you, Alicia."

"Liar –" She denied it. He must be using something! Or else she would not be having such reactions to him.

He slowly bent over, and his gloved hand wiped off the beads of sweat on her forehead. "You are feeling hot…" his voice was so unnaturally low again, as if he had just woken up in the morning. "You want something… Me perhaps? You're craving my lips against yours –"

"All because of your demonic powers, Ezekiel." She snapped and cut him off. Her eyes were now sharp and dangerous. "If you think you can fool me –"

"Stop blaming everything and everyone else and just admit your desires Alicia –" Ezekiel said straight to the point, not even giving her the chance to finish her sentence.

"There's no genuine desire to admit in the first place, Ezekiel." She cut him off as well with her denial. Her voice getting louder and harder. "You know very well that I hate you. No sane person would want to kiss the person she had been wanting to kill, unless they're under the influence of some external force –"

A dark and quick chuckle cut her off, causing her anger to rise as fast as it appeared. His deep chuckle just sent shivers down her spine. "I can't believe how clueless you are about your own –"

Alicia did not allow him to finish his line again and spoke as if she did not hear a thing that he had just said. "And you are clearly trying so hard to seduce me like this. Hence all these fake desires are just you, rousing it from me. What are you even aiming for in doing this, huh, Ezekiel? You can't be doing all these, just to get your way with me, can you?"

He fell absolutely silent at her accusations. For a moment, he looked like he could not believe what she had just said. Then a quick laugh echoed before he half-bite down on his lip. She had almost forgotten that this person can actually laugh too.

"Such a stubborn woman as always." He seemed to mutter that to himself and shook his head a little. Then faster than a blink of an eye, his face was suddenly looming over hers. Those metallic grey orbs were looking so dangerously dark now.

"You really think I'm doing all these just because I want to fuck you?" His voice still calm and low but a wicked amusement flashed in his eyes. If looks could kill, the blade in his eyes might have killed her on the spot at that very moment. "Be thankful that I am not taking your words very seriously right now Alicia. Knowing that not only your body has weakened, but your brain has also gotten affected by your situation as well. But I had not expected the deterioration to be this bad. You have now become gloriously dumb."

That statement made Alicia's eyes widen with fury. Her knee flew up to kick him in his royal balls, but her intentions and movements did not escape Zeke's supreme reflexes.

His gloved hand was already on her knee before she even realised and it was pressed down, rendering her move ineffective. A dangerous smile full of warning flashed across his face.

"You dare do that again, and you will see -"

She reflexively lifted her other knee, thinking that she should take advantage of the moment. But his bare hand moved so fast that her second attempt was unsuccessful as well – to her utter consternation.

His bare hand was clamped onto her other knee at an impossible speed. She had started to become invisible but immediately became visible again at the touch of his bare hand.

"Seems like you want it this way, huh? Well… fine with me, Alicia.." He said with a tiny shrug and his hands which were on her knees moved, spreading her legs apart.
