SPELLBOUND Chapter 699 Necklace

699 Necklace

Everyone was still a little worried about Evie's decision to trust in that man and go along with his requests. But they could only choose to believe in her. After all, they knew how much the queen loves her husband. Thus, it would make no sense for her to do something that is detrimental to his health and safety. They would trust in her person and the wisdom she held as the Light Queen.
They would follow her and put their trust in this man and hope for a better outcome. It was obvious that Evie did not spill everything that she and the stranger named Ezekiel had talked about. But they understood her reasons for doing so. Right now, they all felt deep in their hearts and truly believed that trusting Evie's decision and this Ezekiel was the best move for them. Most especially when the other choices they had were equally just as risky.
After their talk and everyone gave Evie their support on her decision, she finally allowed Ezekiel to move the massive amber crystal Gav was in from Ferber to the Well of Darkness.
Ezekiel had wanted them to transport Gav over to the well first before Evie released him. It was due to his plan to immediately drag Gav into the well and across to the Underworld as soon as he was released. Ezekiel said that they needed to arrange it that way so as to eliminate any other battles that were not necessary. 'It's foolish to risk the possibility of us needing to fight him and waste magic and time and perhaps even life, just to drag him through the portal when we can simply do it this way. It's the fastest and safest method.' He had given his reasoning and none of them can refute him.
Evie somehow also kind of felt that Ezekiel was doing things with a subtle urgency underlying his moves. There were no signs of him rushing or being desperate. Nothing at all. But it was in the way he had dealt with things that made Evie just feel it in her gut. That he was not here to waste even a Looking up at him, Evie smiled and brought something out from her pocket.

second more than was necessary. In fact, if he could even shorten any of the steps, he would.
And she found herself cooperating with him seamlessly. Since the war years ago, Evie had learned a lot in dealing with the humans and vampires back on the surface. She had learned exactly where and when to make herself a little harder, or colder – just with the right timing that she had it down to an art. Because it was necessary. So, she was no longer as easily convinced. She always made sure to put her emotions last when making decisions. And she always avoids making decisions in a rush as it is known, haste makes waste.
But today, it was totally different. Even though this involves her beloved, she was letting everything flow and go along really quickly. Yes, everything was just moving too fast. And she was aware that it was because of Ezekiel.
With just himself and his obvious tremendous dark magic, he had transported Gav in that massive crystal, just in the blink of an eye and positioned the crystal right next to the now opened portal.
When everyone saw that the seal of the well was broken, they looked over at Ezekiel. The soldiers watching the Well had already reported that the Well had reopened. But none of them ever noticed that there had been someone who had come out at all, even though the Well was literally circled by special guards literally all the time.
None of them asked anything anymore though, because with the man's amount of power, it was obvious that he could do things that were deemed impossible to them.
Very soon, the new set-up for the ritual was done.
Evie was now ready to begin when Ezekiel approached her.
"Any words you wish for me to pass onto him?" he asked, his tone quite kind and understanding at her plight.
Looking up at him, Evie smiled and brought something out from her pocket. It was the original onyx necklace she owned.
"Please deliver this to him." She gave him the necklace that made Ezekiel's expressionless face change a little. His brow lifted slightly after looking at it, but he took it without another word and put it into his pocket. Then after nodding at her, Ezekiel walked back to his spot. That was an indication that she must begin now because Ezekiel was probably running out of time. Though he had not said anything, somehow, just his silence was enough to tell her so.
Glancing at him once more after she took a deep breath, she noticed him staring at someone. And she knew that look. He was communicating with someone through his eyes. A fellow vampire.
Evie turned and saw that it was her mother-in-law. What could they be talking about?
Taking another deep breath, Evie prepared herself and started the ritual.
Amber lights shone again and when it was about time for her to execute the final step, she looked up at Gav's frozen body so tenderly, so lovingly... so longingly. She wished that she could at least hug him, even if it was just his soulless body, just one last time before he was to be taken away to the Underworld. She had missed him so badly over these many years just waiting and biding her time to undo the spell that had kept him trapped in her crystal. She had thought that once the spell was undone, she would be reunited with him and they would no longer need to be separated. But looking again at the spell formation that was in effect to release Gav from his frozen state, she understood she could not even do something as simple as that. Much less a hug, she could not even touch him. Because the moment the crystal breaks, he immediately would be gone. Ezekiel was on standby to grab him and move through the portal to get them both back into the Underworld.
So, she stared and stared, committing every single detail of him into her memory. She literally burned his image into her mind that it would be impossible for her to forget anything about him. Not that she had not already done so. Just that she was doing this for the last time until she could see him again. She continued doing that until time was up.
