Hellbound With You (WN)

By the time the king and the others reached the dungeon ’s entrance, Alex was already gone. They heard noises coming from the hole as they approached it. King Livius gritted his teeth as he looked down the seemingly endless abyss.  

”Abigail… ” he heard Alex ’s voice echo as he called out for Abi.

On the edge of the room by the wall, the princess started begging for her life.

”Mother, Father, save me… Alex… he ’s going to kill me! ”

The queen ran to her daughter and she started weeping as she approached her chained child. 

”Oh my god, Mira, what have you done? ” The queen was extremely distraught. The royal family had done their best not to anger Alex and to stay on good terms with him all these years and yet, in an instant, all their hard work was burnt to ashes because this child of hers did this. 

Everyone was worried and terrified and shocked. They couldn ’t believe that Alexander didn ’t even hesitate to jump inside that abyss for that girl. Who was that girl that made Alex act like he was willing to search even the depths of hell just for her?

Even King Livius finally realized the extent of what Alex would be willing to do for that girl. Alexander was no longer the same. He wasn ’t the same Alex who wouldn ’t bat an eye even if his so-called lover at the time got killed accidentally or not. He wasn ’t the same man who would let all the royal family ’s every ridiculous action slide like he didn ’t care. He wasn ’t the same man who swore he wouldn ’t claim the life of any of the royal family no matter what happened. He had changed for that woman and what was even more ridiculous was that he had only been with her for a few days! 

Looking at the chains around Mira ’s body, the Queen had already given up trying to save her. These chains were so thick and strong that it would take at least a few days to cut through it. It only had one key and that was down in the dungeon with Alex right now. She knew that Alex would never let her live if he was to find that girl was dead in that dungeon. All of them knew it. What was worse was that all of them were certain that the girl was already dead. There was no escaping that dungeon. Even if she stayed put and didn ’t trigger any of the hidden traps, all the poisonous creatures would ’ve already gotten her or forced her to ran towards the traps. All of them knew that, and that was why the queen started to weep. 

King Livius ’ expression was serious as he sighed. No matter how he thought about it, the only way for Alexander to calm down after this was for Mira to pay using her own life. What could he do? How could he calm Alex down without him hurting his daughter?
