SPELLBOUND Chapter 596 - After That

Chapter 596 - After That

"So you're saying you couldn't see anything about us… I mean what is going on around?" Evie asked.
"I can only see flashes like they were some kind of background. However, if it was related to me and Gideon… then the pictures were very clear."
"I see…" Evie looked at her with understanding, her focus so intense. She felt like these would be very important, even if she could not tell anyone about them, the matter with Gideon was something she must know at all costs.
Because Evie still believed that the future which she saw was a result of this future Vera had seen. Evie also already realized that the future Vera saw must be way earlier than the far future that was shown to her.
"What happened after that?" Evie questioned Vera again. "Did he bring you all the way to the heart of the Abyss?"
Vera shook her head.
"I managed to awaken him somehow before we got in too deep into that darkness." Vera answered. A silent tear fell from her eyes again, but she tried her very best this time not to shed more than that. "I saw him snap out of it, and then the next thing I knew, I was somehow inside a castle… he broke down at the sight of my wounds which was a result of my struggle to bring him back to his senses. He was so angry, and I could do nothing but watch him as he started loathing himself. I think at that moment… I saw your husband. Just a glimpse of him. I also can't quite tell what he was doing. I don't know what was going on outside that place as all my eyes could only see clearly was Gideon. Just us both. I also can't tell how long the time has passed but I think Gideon had confined me within that place. He had distanced himself from me for fear that he would end up hurting me again. I watched him as he tried to fight the darkness that was taking over him for I don't know how long. Until I saw me finally freeing myself from his restriction. I went to him because I wanted to help him… to touch him… I think I just couldn't watch him fight his darkness all by himself anymore. Somehow, I managed to get him to take over full control of himself again. He was alright again after that. And he finally let me out of that place. I think he was wanting to bring me somewhere again when I saw a mountain of ice. We both stopped there because I think I asked him a question. But I can't quite remember what it was for now. And it was there that we saw frozen dragons within that mountain."
Evie started to swallow in anticipation.
"There were flashes again and the next scene I saw was me touching the ice and watching it melt under my palms. I don't know what happened after that as something seemed to have happened once again. I think I saw flashes of the abyss reaching all the way to that mountain of ice. It was like something within it was chasing after us and the closer that dark abyss got to us, Gideon seemed to get crazier and lose himself all over again." Vera clutched on her cloak so tightly as she continued. Her voice getting more and more pained as her story went on.
She wiped away another silent tear that fell from her eyes before she spoke again. "Gideon started to push me away from him. But I didn't let go. He started begging me to leave him after he had accidentally hurt me again. I think he end up bringing me to another castle. I saw glimpses of dragons in the sky and intense fighting happening again."
"Dragons? Were they ice dragons that you saw?" Evie asked in a soft and patient voice.
Vera shook her head. "I don't know, but I think I saw them breathing out fire." She answered and Evie creased her brows a little. This means in the future Vera saw, she did not manage to free the frozen ice dragons?
"The place Gideon brought you to… is it still within the Under lands?" Evie asked again and Vera nodded.
"I think… all the scenes that I saw in my vision happened here in the Under Lands. I don't remember that my vision ever showed anywhere outside of the Under Lands." She said contemplatively and Evie did not ask anymore and just waited for Vera to continue on her story.
"After that…" her voice cracked a little. "I think Gideon had brought me to meet his parents. I think I saw a glimpse of you again at that time. I think you were having a fight with your husband. Both of us were fighting against them, I think… as they seem to be trying to send us out of the Under Lands for our safety. However, the both of us were arguing back as we did not want to leave and have them fight the battles on their own. It was bad enough that we could not contribute much during that war, but to send us off was the bottom line that neither you or I were willing to accept. I don't know how much time had passed again after that, but I think you seemed to be teaching me something during that time."
"Did you happen to see dragons again?" Evie could not help but keep wandering back to this issue. She needed to know more on what happened with Vera and the ice dragons!
"I think so… yes. I did see glimpses of them here and there." Vera answered in the affirmative and then she continued narrating again. "I think everything was better for a short time after that. Gideon had kept himself under strict control as well and I think it's because of your husband's contribution."
Evie creased her brows. "Because of Gav? Why do you think it's because of him?"
