Hellbound With You (WN)

”Don ’t go anywhere, Alex, ” she told him.

”I won ’t. So please don ’t think about what happened, okay. Don ’t think about that; just think about our happy times together, okay? ” he smiled, kissing her forehead. Although Alex tried his best to make her feel at ease, to stop her from worrying, Abi couldn ’t do it. Her fear had taken hold of her and it wasn ’t going to let her be.

”But… I ’m scared Alex. You ’re not going to die, right? Tell me… please… tell me you ’re going to live. I ’m scared that the reason why you ’re not pulling out this dagger is because… is because… ”

”Shh… ” Alex planted a kiss on her lips. He could see she was starting to cry again. ”Don ’t worry… this… ” he averted his gaze away from her and looked at the dagger on his chest. ”I actually made you miss my heart, ” he looked up and flashed her a sarcastic smile.

”Then why are you not pulling it out? ”

”Well, this dagger can only be pulled out by a powerful witch. There ’s a curse on this too. It will suck the memories out of the person who pulls it out, ” he answered, making Abi ’s brows crease in confusion. She was still unable to fully grasp all these supernatural things she had seen and heard. Everything was still hard for her to believe, but she didn ’t care anymore. What bugged her at that moment was the unsettling feelings she had. She felt like somewhere in Alex ’s statement was a lie and she hated herself for doubting him. Maybe she was just being paranoid?

”R-really? ” she asked, asking for his confirmation once again. She so wanted to believe him, that all they needed to do now was find a powerful witch to pull the dagger out.

”Yes, Abigail. Don ’t worry anymore. This dagger won ’t be in my chest anymore once you wake up. You have to think positive to get through this surgery, ” he encouraged and Abi finally looked a little better.

A nurse came in and asked Alex to leave as she placed a mask over Abi ’s nose and mouth.

”Wife, I need to go now. I ’ll be just outside. I won ’t leave until the surgery is over, ” he told her and she cupped his face and kissed him. She started to feel drowsy as whatever she was breathing in took effect.

”Please promise me… you ’ll be here when I wake up. Promise me, Alex. Please, ” she begged and Alex bumped his forehead on hers as he uttered his answer.

”I promise, Abigail. ”
