บท 531: Lifeline

Zeke stood there, no longer wearing that black coat. He didn't look weakened nor hurt despite his intense fight against Alex hours ago. It seemed he was fully healed now.

Abi had so much to say and ask him but Zeke's cold eyes were full of intensity. They were calm as always, but why did Abi feel like something was wrong with him?

He took a step towards her. Abi didn't know why but her heart started to race. She felt the need to step back. 'Why?' she asked herself but Abi quickly shook her head. Why would she feel scared? Even though Abi's trust in him was a little shaken when she saw how he fought against Alex hours ago, she couldn't forget that this man was Zeke, the man Alex trusted the most. They never would have gotten to this point if it wasn't for him. He was also the one who helped them out of the abyss.

But then, why was she flinching right now as he stepped closer? She could only scold herself, telling herself that this man was not an enemy.
