Hellbound With You (WN)

The silence in the room pulsed with its own life as everyone waited for Zeke to move from his seat. But the man neither moved nor said anything but just sat there and eyed the guard before them.

It was obvious that the mighty looking guard stiffened up even without a single word from Zeke. He looked as though Ezekiel had just said something dreadfully harsh without giving him any consideration.

”Don ’t make your father come here Zeke, you can ’t let him and the queen see two silvered-haired witches in the crown prince ’s study. ” Alex said, glancing at the unmoving Zeke.

Everyone watched his back until he disappeared from their view.

”I have a question. ” She asked and the old prophetess nodded at her, acknowledging the request.

”How did… ” Alicia hesitated but continued anyway. ”Did Dinah knew that Ezekiel is the crown prince of the vampires and that he ’s Alexander ’s very close ally since the beginning? ”
