SPELLBOUND

Chapter 378 - Your Highness!

"How dare you seduce me like that and then leave me hanging high and dry, dear husband of mine." She growled lightly and raised her brows at him as she stared down into his eyes. She was torn between wanting to strangle him or pounce on him all at the same time. This man…!!

Gavriel looked at her in surprise for a moment before he sipped on his lower lip, smiling sexily. "But wife… you're the one who said we must go out first." He could not help but tease her more.

"I will make you…" Evie suddenly trailed off as she stilled in her bent over position. She was about to straddle him when she saw someone came running in, holding a bottle that contained a red liquid within.

The light fae froze as well.

Evie straightened and smiled at the light fae.

"You can come over." She beckoned to the light fae calmly, clenching down on her teeth hard, not letting herself burn with embarrassment.

The light fae hesitantly entered and carefully placed the bottle on the table. "The… the vampire named Zolan asked me to bring this bottle here, my queen." She bowed apologetically.

"Thank you. You may withdraw. Please inform the rest that we'll be out in a few minutes." Evie kept her tone mild and calm.

With a bow of respect, the light fae then left.

Clearing her throat, Evie stepped away from the living temptation next to her. She immediately realized that this bottle contained blood and realised that it was an important food source and Gav needs to drink it. Even though he could eat meals with her, the main nutrition he needs would still be derived from blood. And Evie understood this.

She opened the bottle easily, her fingers glowed brightly for a few brief seconds and Gavriel knew that it was magic. He used to take the bottle from her without a word before handing it back to her. It was something very mundane in their lives, but Gavriel loved doing those simple little things for her. But now, it looks like he would not be doing that anymore. She no longer needed him to open a bottle of wine for her anymore.

Quietly, Gavriel watched her pour the bright red liquid into a wine glass and then hand it over to him smoothly as it were their daily routine.

"Here, dear husband. You fed me quite a lot a while ago so you must not complain if I make you drink a lot too." Evie stated her disclaimer right on the first glass.

Another soft chuckle echoed from him, and he took the glass Evie was offering.

Relieved that the sexual tension between them had somewhat subsided, Evie poured him another glass after he had drained the first one quickly. He must have been hungry. And as she was staring at the glass, she suddenly remembered something.

"Oh no!" her eyes widened in worry.

Gavriel immediately put down his glass, his brows creasing as he wondered what the problem was. "What's wrong?"

"Levy." Evie said, "I forgot about Levy!"

Blinking, Gavriel relaxed.

"He's trapped inside the crystal." Evie told him and Gavriel blinked. Why was Levy in a crystal? Worry now flashed in his eyes for one of his men.

"He's trapped? How? By Thundrann?" A dangerous glint flashed in his grey orbs to replace the worry.

"No… it was actually by me." Evie stated softly.

Speechless, Gavriel gulped the remaining blood in his glass. Then he settled the glass on the table and looked at her, a little shocked. "You trapped Levy… he had been possessed?" confusion and surprise flashed across Gavriel's face. How did that even happen? Something must have happened for Evie to do this. He believed that there would be a perfectly good reason for it. He trusted in Evie no matter what.

"No, no…" Evie shook her head and she immediately explained what happened.

Her explanation made Gavriel let out a relieved sigh. He was thankful he was mistaken in his assumption that Evie had to trap Levy because he had been possessed.

The couple then quickly made their way out of the castle. They had decided to awaken Levy first and then deal with their current situation later with the rest of their men as well as the light faes that came along with Evie.

Soon, Evie and Gavriel met the elite vampires in the courtyard.

The vampires all stood there in one line. They were all still as they fixed their eyes on Gavriel.

When Gavriel appeared several hours ago to stop the princess from beheading Thundrann, the men were shocked at the sight of him. They saw that his eyes were back to the familiar grey again and they could hardly believe it. Was their prince finally back this time? Even though Gavriel had spoken with Samuel through their mind telepathy, even Samuel was doubting if that was actually his imagination.

They had been fooled once before when he showed them his red eyes the night that he had ordered them to bring the princess over to Crescia. And that was why they did not dare to immediately believe that their very own Prince Gavriel was back this time.

"How's everyone?" Gavriel spoke, looking at them one after another. "I am glad to see that all of you are whole and very much well." He flashed them a smirk as he looked at them with pride and the men finally sighed in relief. Yes!! It is truly their prince!

Elias even began to tear up and Reed's throat felt as though he was choked up.

"Your Highness!" Reed and Elias cried out emotionally and Gavriel approached them, thumping them fondly on their shoulders. "At long last! You finally remembered us!"

Gavriel thanked them one by one through their eyes. He knew he could not thank these men enough for being with Evie all those difficult and challenging times.. He could tell they went through a lot, and he was nothing but proud of them.
