The night was getting dark, and here in the United States was different from the place where Caius stayed all year round. The vampire's keen hearing was now filled with the impetuous and bustling noise of the city, which was numerous and chaotic.

His subconscious, which belongs to the top hunter, spared no effort to urge him to analyze every piece of information he felt. Usually, this voice was the most unbearable for Caius, which was why they had placed the underground palace in the remote Italian countryside for so many years.For him, those low-level, insensitive vampires can wander around in big cities looking for prey, mostly because their dull senses and uncontrollable desires can only be spent on hunting vulnerable humans.

But now that Elizabeth is here, these noises are nothing compared to her importance. Caius struggled to find a balance, and finally calmly found a little space in his mind to place these information, which made him I was a little surprised.

"I have a meeting." His voice was cold, but he patted Elizabeth gently through the thin quilt with his hand. She was not sleeping well, and her breathing rate kept changing, which made him even more reluctant to leave, but Merlin Now I don't know whether it is an enemy or a friend, and Caius is very disturbed to put him in Elizabeth's circle of friends without meeting him personally.

"Yes, my lord." Jane's sweet voice sounded in the darkness, and she quietly walked to Elizabeth's bedside, guarding her for Caius.

Elizabeth's face buried in the pillow was as pure and charming as an angel, he bent down reluctantly, the cold breath did not disturb her, but instead made Elizabeth subconsciously lean towards him... No way!Caius reminded himself, he straightened up suddenly, opened the curtains silently and swept out of the window.

The outside of the high-end residential area was brightly lit, and there was no one in the courtyard of the Pendragon House, but the parents were still awake, and Jay and Ruth were still enthusiastically arranging things for tomorrow's party.

Gianna was standing upright under a big tree across the street. Caius' sudden appearance frightened her a bit, but she tried her best not to show it. She just put her focus on the leg farther away from him. On the ground, her biological instincts were screaming for her to run, because he was clearly on fire now.

"Go." Caius squeezed out the word from between his teeth. Jaina didn't dare to take a peek at his face, so she crossed the street with a white face and prepared to knock on the door. Her human identity is quite useful at this time. Anyway, as long as Merlin can be brought out to meet Caius now, it will be fine.

But before she rang the doorbell of the wrought iron gate outside the courtyard, the door opened by itself first, and a tall and thin figure of a boy emerged from the air, and the color on his body that was completely integrated into the background faded like a chameleon. She was really shocked, but fortunately she covered her mouth and didn't make a sound.

The boy was wearing silly pajamas, with messy black hair, as if he just had a fight with someone not long ago, but the misty blue iris was highlighted by a circle of light like a golden ring around him Strange, Jaina has never met Merlin, but it does not prevent her from inferring that this boy who is obviously not an ordinary person is the person Caius is going to meet today. She hurriedly retreated after bowing hurriedly. It is not her business now. Finally, I can go back and rest for a while.

Caius stood under the big tree, and the shadow cast by the big tree cleverly blocked his figure, but Merlin could feel his power, as powerful and full of presence as a burning sun in the wizard's special sight.

"... Caius," he greeted proactively. Merlin knew that the Volturi were looking for him early on, but after Arthur passed away thousands of years ago, he was completely disheartened, and he had no intention of continuing to play his stamp collecting game with Aro. ; and now that he had just found Arthur, he didn't want to drag him into the unsafe supernatural world, so he kept avoiding their search... Because of Elizabeth, he couldn't hide anymore anyway, so he simply came out by himself.

"Long time no see, Merlin." Caius greeted indifferently. He compared his memory and found that Merlin's face was almost exactly the same as before, so he added, "It seems that you are doing well."

In fact, he has no interest in Merlin's mental journey over the past thousand years, but now he has something to ask for, especially about Elizabeth, so he has to bow his head and chat patiently.

"Don't embarrass yourself, Caius, we all know each other well enough." Hearing this, Merlin smiled easily, "You're here for Elizabeth, I know."

It seems that the news spread quickly among the wizards, Caius turned his head slightly, his cold eyes focused on every tiny detail on Merlin's face, "How much do you know about her brand?"

Merlin frowned slightly, "Her imprint is the power left in her blood, a gift from her ancestors."

"Gift?" Caius sneered, "It's not something that can guarantee the love of a lifetime, nor can it give her the strength to protect herself. What is it called a gift?"

Sighing helplessly, Merlin said softly, "At least she found you."

The blurry moonlight shrouded them, and Caius didn't speak. Merlin knew that this meant that he was not satisfied with the answer. Although he was not in the mood to tell a story today, he wanted to get out of this embarrassing situation as soon as possible. , it would be better to tell Caius what he wanted to know.

"All people with the soul mate brand are descendants of the great wizard Loist."

Loyster, Caius knew who he was. This wizard existed longer than him. Since he became a vampire, he began to contact the history of the supernatural world. This great wizard has appeared in legends and stories countless times, even Rumor has it that vampires are the product of his magic.

Merlin said solemnly, "Since he passed away, I don't know why one of his sons has lost his magical talent, but all three of his sons have been branded with this line of spirit companions on their left arms. They're scattered all over the place... I've met a girl like that before."

"So she also has some wizard's blood in her body," Caius murmured.

"It should be, I have already met Elizabeth... I can indeed help her transform, but you have to think about it, she can't be as powerful as a normal vampire, after the transformation is complete, she will still have a heartbeat, and even some blood ..."

"But can she get eternal life?" Caius interrupted Merlin rudely. He didn't care if Elizabeth could become a qualified warrior. Without knowing it, he had been preparing for Elizabeth's arrival for more than 3000 years. , now he has enough power to protect her, whether it is the supernatural world or the human world.

"Yes," Merlin looked at his expression with foggy blue eyes, and answered slowly after a while, "She will get the same eternal life as you."

The corners of the bright red mouth were drawn into a straight line, Caius didn't believe at all that Merlin could help him unconditionally for the sake of his old relationship, not to mention that they both got what they needed back then.

"That's enough, tell me your conditions now." He said hastily, he couldn't wait to go back to Elizabeth.

"Don't touch Arthur...and Morgana." Merlin begged him solemnly, "That's the one request, don't involve him in any ups and downs anymore, let him live this life safely."

"Even you are part of the story?" Caius asked blankly.

"..." Merlin lowered his eyes, his face darkened, "Yes," he said bitterly, "even I am part of the story."
