Chapter 243 - Gate

Evie could feel the extremely heavy tension that was hanging between them right now due to the seriousness of his statement. She could also see what seemed like animal ferocity glittering in his eyes. There was also a mix of passion and lust swirling together in them and at that moment, Evie's fear spiked up to an intense level. The worse thing was that the way he looked at her, his warm quick breath against her skin, his hard and perfectly toned muscles pressing against her body were all making her body react to him. She was confused as why this was happening. Though he was not her Gavriel, her body's reaction was somehow responding to this man as though he was truly Gavriel. It was as if her body could not help it at all and though the fear within her at this moment was mounting, it still was not enough to distract her fully.

But when he lowered his face to hers, Evie felt her heart jump within her chest. She recognised that action! She knew without a doubt that he was going to kiss her – if she did nothing to stop him from doing so. No! her mind screamed. And it took so much of her willpower to struggle and knock herself out from the trance. She managed to avoid his kiss by turning her face sideways – just barely.

"You… said you're not going to force me." Evie's whole body was rigid under him even as she hissed, angry.

He withdrew a little, a slight frown on his face. "Force you? You clearly wanted it too, Evie –"

"You're wrong!" she cut him off loudly, now glaring at him.

"Really?" his voice sounded erotic as he smiled sensuously wicked at her, one of his elegant brows lifted in question even as his enigmatic eyes stared at her. His thumb lightly brushed against her lips, parting them as his gaze was fixed on them, as though entranced. "I don't believe you. Your body clearly wants me too now, right, Evie?"

Wide-eyed, Evie trashed beneath him again, trying to get herself away from being pinned down by him. This was driving her insane because she knew he was right. Her body was reacting to him just the same way it did with her Gavriel. She must not be seduced so easily like this! She cannot! She must keep in mind the cruel being inside her husband right now might not be what they think it is. There was no guarantee that this person was the same person as her Gavriel. Not yet at least. What if they were wrong all along?

The thought terrified Evie and terror filled her eyes the moment she felt him parting her legs with his knee. Her eyes widened in fear as her heart quaked as she started panicking on the inside. What can she do to get out of this alarming situation?

Upon seeing the frantic and almost maddened look on her face, he stilled his movements. All the passion and lust in his eyes dimmed and immediately died out and then anger swooped in to furiously replace them.

He pulled back almost immediately. And suddenly Evie was left lying alone on the bed, still dazed from the rapid changes in things. When she could make sense of the situation and draw in a deep breath, she afterwards exhaled in relief. Then the next thing Evie registered was hearing a very loud bang due to the door being slammed shut.

…

The man disappeared as soon as he was out of the room. He then materialized far away, in a dungeon under the ruined city he had heard was called Dacria. Standing at the same spot where he had woken up days ago, he looked around him, face filled with fury and gave a great roar in a bid to release his anger.

However, that did not seem to have done anything for him. His face was still filled with nothing but rage as he recalled the face of the woman he loved so much, looking at him in terror. And then he lost it. His devil eyes blazed with blue flames, and he went berserk like a beast in a stampede. He fully unleashed his fury, destroying the walls and pillars of the dungeon. He punched and kicked, allowing his anger to flow out of his being. He did not want to go back and face Evie still burning up in anger and disappointment. Otherwise, he would not know what he would end up doing to her. His heart was already in pain even thinking back on how frightened her face looked when she stared at him. How was he to stand having her treat him that way again? That thought brought on the raging flames in his heart again.

The anger he felt was suffocating. He was unable to accept that his Evie, the woman whom he was living for was horrified of him. Was he such a dreadful monster to her? Was that why she had forgotten all about him?

The thought fuelled his anger even more and he continued destroying anything he could lay his hands and feet on.

He only stopped when the entire place collapsed into rubbles under his feet. His fists were bleeding as he stood there, his blood dripping to the ground even as the lacerations on his hands slowly healed. As the fiery blue flame in his eyes calmed a little, he walked further into the pitch dark tunnel until he stopped at the very dead end.

The dead end looked quite normal. It was as if the one who created the tunnels countless of years ago had simply got tired of building anymore and had just left it as it was. But only he knew this was not any ordinary dead end. It was only known to him that this was actually a sealed gate he could never cross again. There was a whole different world that lies beyond – but the knowledge of it was limited to his eyes and mind alone.

Quietly, he stretched out his hand and touched the wall made of ancient stone. Though ancient, it still was as firm and steady as the very day they were being put in place. Time did not seem to be able to touch it and cause any wears and tears. Then as he closed his eyes, he began to see himself, when he was younger, leaving through this gate.
