When their lips parted, they were panting so hard, gasping for air.
Alex was pulled back to the present and he finally noticed her tears. His face flooded with worry but before he could ask if she was alright, Abi kissed him as she wrapped her arms around him as fast as she could.
And then, as if all her strength had left her, she became limp in his arms. She had fainted.
Alex was shocked as he embraced her. "Abigail!" he called out as he held her. He tried to pull her hands off him so she could gather her up and bring her to a better spot but Abi's grip on him was so tight.
That made him realize she was fine.
Relieved, Alex slowly sat down on the ground, with her still hugging him.
His brain finally started processing the situation as he looked around. The dead vampires and witches and the destroyed forest. He could tell what had happened. He lost himself the moment he saw the necklace in that vampire's hand. He thought they had killed his Abigail.
