Hellbound With You Chapter 893 Adorable

Chapter 893 Adorable

This chapter is dedicated to @_Basia_! Thank you so much for the supergift!
"How much had you drunk?" Zeres' face was now looking even more severe as he bent closer to her.
"Uhm… I think two glasses?? Uhm… why are you… I'm not that weak in dealing with alcohol, Zeres. I can actually hold my liquor quite well and this is just wine. So it should be fine." Iryz said, frowning a little, eying her glass and obviously wanting it back.
She did not notice how the ladies, especially Kelly had secretly gasped behind her as soon as they realized that Iryz had tried to drink from the other bottles. Abi on the other hand, looked as confused as Iryz because she did not understand why Zeres was reacting this way. It was as if Iryz was just a mere human who could not manage the vampire's wine delicacy. Wait… could it be that… everyone and even Iryz herself thinks that she was just a normal human…?
"Iryz…" Zeres placed the glass on the table but further away from her reach and whispered into her ears. "This wine is made especially for the vampires. Witches can handle it just fine, but not humans. Are you feeling okay?"
Abi was about to say something when Iryz suddenly started to look a little dazed and intoxicated, surprising her once again. The girl was affected by the wine! Did this mean that her suspicion was wrong the whole time, and that this girl was truly just a normal human in this lifetime? But…
"R-really? No wonder it tastes sooo good. I've never tasted such wine before." Iryz chuckled happily and she tried to reach for the glass again when Zeres caught her wrist and stopping her from doing so.
"Damn, why did I forget to tell her anything about the foods being served here?" Zeres groaned. "No. That's enough. I just told you that the wine is specially made for the vampires, didn't I?"
"But it won't kill humans if we drink it, right?" Iryz frowned as she asked, still thinking in her mind of wanting to grab the glass of wine.
"No, it won't but –"
"Then there is nothing to worry about, sir." She cut him off, giggling cutely. "I want more of that wine and nothing can stop me. Not even you!" She then stuck out her tongue at him.
She stood up when Zeres wrapped his arm around her waist to stop her. "I said, no. That thing can't kill you… but it will do something bad to you." He hurriedly told her.
"Something bad? What something bad?" Iryz cocked her head to the side, wondering what was so bad about it. Did they put in some strong drugs? But she immediately pushed that thought away. No way these group of people would touch something illegal like drugs.
Zeres' mouth opened and closed and could not say anything. And the ladies who were watching him from the side could not help but press their lips tightly together to stop themselves from giggling at the poor man. No one tried to help him though. They all kept silent and watched with suppressed smiles at how he was going to resolve this matter.
He had glanced at Abi for help, but Kelly was quick to grab her arm and drag her away from him. Until the others eventually left, leaving Zeres standing there alone with Iryz, speechless. She was still staring at him, waiting for him to answer her.
"You don't even know what this something bad is, do you? You just don't want me to enjoy the wine, right?" Iryz complained and pouted.
"Iryz…" Zeres did not know how to respond to her accusations.
"Let me go. I'll make you as many coffees as you want once we're home. Just one more glass, pleaseeee?" she pleaded, her eyes widening like kitten's, causing Zeres to feel a scratchy and itchy feeling in his heart and his ears turned red and hot.
"Answer is still no, Iryz. Please listen to me –"
"No! I don't want to! You're so mean!" Iryz pouted and blamed him.
"Iryz… this is for your sake -"
"I don't think so, Zeres. You're just being mean to me right now! Let me go and let me have the wine. Since I am already here, so just let me enjoy myself, can't I?"
"Are you really going to choose the wine over me now?" Zeres asked her, a little in disbelief.
She stilled before turning to look at him then her gaze wandered back longingly to the wine.
"Yes. I choose the wine." Iryz told him in a very serious and determined tone.
Zeres: ". . .!!!"
At that point, everyone could no longer hold back and laughed, although it was done in silence. But it could be seen in their shoulders as they started to tremble as they watched Zeres' expression looking as though he just had experienced a severe emotional damage. His HP had taken a huge blow and had gone down into the red.
"He's glancing over at you, Alex." Kai muttered lowly as he giggled.
"Although I do see him as my younger brother right now… but no. No way in hell!" Alex smirked wickedly. "Even if he begs me, I won't be giving him even a little help." Then he snickered softly. But those around him clearly heard it.
"What a cold big brother you are then." Lucas said with humor. He then said a silent prayer for Zeres in his heart. 'Man, I hope you survive this.'
"Nah, 'what a sweet big brother you are' should be the correct words. He really needs to learn how to subdue his drunk girl by himself. Just look at them interacting with each other. Aren't they just adorable?!"
"Tsk, tsk… You just enjoy watching him having a hard time. Well, an adorably cute hard time if that word combo even makes any sense."
