[Zongmeiying] Soul Mate

Caius slid his cold fingers past Elizabeth's ears, and didn't bother to ask her if she had a dream again.

Elizabeth murmured: "...you are back."

Caius replied in a breathy voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing anything, "I'm back."

The air was filled with the scent of roses, not too strong. Elizabeth took a deep breath to calm down, recalling what happened before she fell asleep unknowingly, controlled her emotions, and tried her best to keep her tone as usual.

She pretended not to wake up, closed her eyes again, and asked in a low voice, "What did Grandpa tell you?"

"Hmm...Harry is curious, who is older, me or him." Caius dropped a thunderbolt as if he was completely unaware of what he was talking about.

"What?" Elizabeth's heart tightened and she woke up.She got up in a hurry, put one hand on Caius' chest, and asked again: "What?"

Caius lay reclined on the bed with his chin resting on his back, the moonlight shining on him through the window, he looked like a perfect statue of a god.

But Elizabeth's heart was about to jump into her throat, she had no time to appreciate this beauty, she frantically rubbed her sleeping disheveled hair, trying to organize her words, seeing her in such a hurry, Caius suddenly laughed, She stopped her waving hand, kissed the back of her hand, and said softly: "He loves you, so you can't lie to him."

This sentence seemed to mean something, but Elizabeth was so confused at the moment that she didn't pay attention at all. She frowned and asked uneasily, "You didn't tell him everything, did you?"

"I told him that I am your soul mate." Caius finished, and added according to Elizabeth's face: "This is enough for him to digest for a while, I guess."

"This..." Elizabeth was a little uneasy about being caught doing something bad, but also a little relieved to confess the truth, even though this confession was not entirely true.

"Similarly, he loves you, so he wants you to be happy. He just wants to make sure that I'm safe for you, not really curious." Caius comforted.

But that doesn't mean that Harry can accept it with ease. The fact that her grandpa has to worry about her at such an old age makes Elizabeth extremely guilty.

A familiar silence permeated the room, and they understood tacitly that this matter was over.

Elizabeth lay down sullenly on Caius' chest, feeling the reassuring force patted her back, and the fingers that could crush diamonds traced her body lovingly and docilely. As a mortal, Elizabeth couldn't imagine, It takes a lot of patience and determination.

After a few warm minutes, she slowly took a deep breath, and asked hesitantly, "Alec told me that you found the Sword in the Stone, and Ah Luo thinks it will be useful?"

Caius paused imperceptibly as he stroked her hair with his fingers, and then continued nonchalantly. He said, "Yes, some of Aro's old friends thought it would be effective against the Book of Fate."

"But the Sword in the Stone is Arthur's sword." Elizabeth said worriedly, "Didn't Mordred ever try it?"

"At that time, Mordred and Merlin were far less powerful than they are now, and the Wizards of Avalon and the Volturi never stood by their side." Speaking of this, Caius' tone inevitably became blunt. .

"Do you think it's possible... that I can use the power of the Book of Fate instead of being swayed by it?" Elizabeth suddenly turned sideways and looked at him calmly. She had already begun to really feel the power of the Book of Fate. Power, and I can't believe that Caius didn't notice how strange the car during the day suddenly went crazy and suddenly lost a tire.

Caius was silent—he was thinking so fast it was almost impossible.After dozens of seconds that were so long that Elizabeth felt uneasy, he slowly said in a low voice: "Every chosen master must have such a moment in their long or short life, hoping that they can get its power, not be swayed by it."

Caius's long eyelashes drooped down, but he still couldn't hide his anxiety well. His face was hidden in the shadows, and he even looked a little fragile, which made Elizabeth finally swallow the questioning.

Compared to vampires or wizards, she is really too weak, and in Caius' eyes, she is even more fragile. Even if Aro might have made up his mind from her, Caius would never allow it' Give it a try' something happens.

The wasted time in this complicated world washes away Caius' desire for too many things. He keeps getting and destroying, and only Elizabeth can make up for what his soul, burning like a flame, has always lacked. Even if she is a dream, he will isolate her from the world and let her live peacefully and happily under his wings forever.

Caius changed the subject, as if nothing had happened, and began to talk about the coming Christmas. He described this festival in a moving voice, as if the Volturi would really celebrate this Festival, or as if he really cared.

——————————————————————————————————————————

Because of the tragedy that happened not long ago, the school was completely suspended and the holiday began directly.Heavy clouds weigh heavily over the city, winter snow is falling, but there is no joyful atmosphere like the past festivals.

Tonight Caius finally let go and agreed that Carrie would come to see Elizabeth.The heating was fully turned on in his villa. Two girls were sitting cross-legged on the bed in thin pajamas. A few textbooks were scattered around. The thin and light laptop connected to the videophone was placed on a pillow.

In the camera, Morgana is still leaning sickly, but her face is much better. The attending doctor Carlisle tacitly cooperates with Merlin's small movements, which makes her rapid recovery progress not attract too much attention.

The atmosphere of the whole evening was very heavy because of the talk of Mordred's sudden death.

"So... are you going to go?" Morgana asked weakly.

"Although Caius insisted that I go and relax, I don't want to leave." Elizabeth sighed, and let go of the phone that was halfway through typing, and Eduardo's name flashed across the screen.

"I think you should go," suggested Carrie, in a worried tone.

"Even if I'm gone, so what, I have a lot of things backlogged in my heart, can I have fun?" Elizabeth said upsetly.

"But," Carrie frowned, her irises glowing with a faint golden light, and she said uneasily, "I feel that it would be very bad for you to stay here..."

"Carrie, don't talk about that." Elizabeth gently interrupted her, reminding her softly, "Don't make Morgan worry, she needs to rest well."

Jiali suddenly remembered that Morgana was just an ordinary person, and hurriedly lowered her head to restrain her emotions.

Morgana was about to speak, when there was a crisp sound of knocking on the glass at the door, she turned her head sideways, her face raised a delicate arc, and after a while, Carlisle walked to the side of the hospital bed with a charming smile on her face , greeted Elizabeth and Carrie on the screen: "It's almost time to rest, girls."

Morgana rolled her eyes faintly: "It's rare for me to wake up for a while, Dr. Karen."

"What are you talking about, Morgan." Elizabeth smiled: "It's almost time, we should rest, good night, Carlisle."

They politely said good night to each other. Elizabeth turned off the screen of her notebook, and was about to raise her head to say a word to Carrie, but was interrupted by sudden heart palpitations, and countless strange golden symbols flashed before her eyes.

When she woke up again, Elizabeth found that she was leaning on Carrie's shoulder, and her wrist was tightly grasped. The force was so strong that it even hurt her. She raised her head in a daze, and was shocked to find that all of Carrie's irises had turned golden. , even the white part of the eyes seemed to exude golden brilliance.
