It wasn't the first time she watched the sunrise, nor was it the first time she appeared in the forest at this time, but this was the first time she waited for the sunrise purely with someone without any other thoughts.

Caius didn't talk much most of the time, and he didn't communicate much when he was at Karen's house. He didn't intend to show a friendly attitude, but softened a little because of Joan.This is the habit and gesture of the Volturi for thousands of years.

Joan has always felt that Caius has a special tenderness at night.It seems that the longer you spend with him, the more different you look at him.It was still the same expression and posture, but she could see his compromise and obedience from the slight frown and small movements.

In the middle of the night, the moon is not visible, the clouds are thick, and the sky is full of stars, which is a common sky for Fox.

Looking up at the dark night sky, Joan frowned, "I may not see the sunrise today."

"kindness."

Caius looked indifferent, stretched out his hand to gently hook the branches and leaves, and didn't say much.

The moonless night was completely dark, and the two got very close, but neither spoke.The atmosphere was quiet for a while, only the rustling of the leaves in the wind was heard.Joan suddenly thought of something and looked down at the shadows under the tree.

She hesitated for a while, pursed her lips, and finally asked tentatively: "Caius, do you believe there is another world?"

He didn't seem to expect that she would ask such a question, and looked at her questioningly, without answering.

"I, I heard a legend, er, a story before."

"In another time and space in this world, there is the same world. There are humans, animals, and the same life." Joan turned and looked at him, "but there are no vampires."

"The world is just a book there, and everyone is a person in the story."

Caius didn't seem to care much, "Then did you see the end of the story?"

She hesitated for a moment, then said slowly: "...If I say, this world does not have me, what would you think?"

"That means you belong to this world." He gently brushed the end of her hair without any hesitation, "Welcome back."

"is it?"

"What if, one day, I return to that world?" Joan felt that the longer she stayed in this world, the more hesitant and wandering she became.For a long time she didn't even think about going home.The loneliness and desolation in another world made her yearn for warmth. She was tired of doing everything by herself, and she was afraid of losing everything now.The fear and panic that had just come here gradually disappeared, and she slowly began to look forward to the future.

It's just that she is getting more and more uneasy, maybe one day, she will leave quietly like she came here.

"There is no such if." Caius understated, breaking all her embarrassment and anxiety, "I will give you the result you want."

"it is good."

How to describe this feeling.She had complete confidence in Caius, because she had read the powerful him in the book before, and could not doubt his ability.Now she found that it was probably because Caius gave her too much affirmation and certainty, as if he had magical powers, his words never broke his promise.She seemed to get an ending in advance, and suddenly felt at ease.

The sky gradually turned white in the boundless silence. As expected, the sunrise could not be seen, and the sky lit up.A hazy patter of rain fell from the sky, and Joan and Caius sat under the huge tree, silently watching the raindrops fall on the leaves.

"Next time, we have to look forward to the weather and come back. The rain in Fox will not end."

Joan looked at the corners of Caius' clothes and hair that hadn't been touched by the rain, and laughed lightly, wondering if Caius would refuse if she said she wanted to run back in the rain.The Volturi seemed to have never been seen by anyone looking down and out. Aro always had a modest gentleman's smile. Even if she didn't like the Volturi, she couldn't deny their elegance.

Just as she was about to ask him, Xiao Yu suddenly stopped, and Joan sighed silently, regrettably and fortunately.

Walking down the forest path, at their speed, they reached the back door of Karen's house in less than 10 minutes.It must be said that Emmett and Jasper were very efficient. On the night they slipped away, the house was almost tidied up, except for a few wooden chairs left behind, most of them were put into the warehouse.Alice throws too many parties a year, these things must not be disposable.

Joan returned to the room and found that Alice had left her a budding white rose on the table, she chuckled, Alice always knew her best.Put the flowers into a transparent glass bottle filled with water and place it in the corner next to the book.Rosalie and Emmett went hunting, Carlisle and Esme went out, Alice and Jasper were busy preparing a new house for Edward and Bella, the whole house was empty, just the two of them.

There was no point in staying in the house, so she simply took Caius to Edward's new house.The house was only half finished, and the exaggerated cloakroom designed by Alice was the first to be completed. The shoes and clothes were still in boxes and not displayed, and Joan could almost imagine Bella's helpless expression.

The custom-made big bed hadn't arrived yet, and Alice was busy picking out some romantic decorations. She wasn't very surprised when she saw them coming. She smiled slyly at Joan, walked around her with two photos, and held them up in Kaie. In front of Adams.

"Which of these two do you like?"

Joan looked doubtful, and obviously asked the opinions of two people, but avoided him. Caius actually looked at it seriously and pointed out one of them.

"Thank you for your comments, I think I will need them soon."

Joan raised her eyebrows, and she didn't need to look at her to know what it was about.

"Do you need any help?"

"Jasper and Emmett are almost ready, just waiting for my furniture and Bella to come back."

When Alice mentioned Bella's return, Joan was taken aback.She bit her lip, thinking of something, looked at Caius, then at Alice, without saying a word.

Alice focused on flipping through the album, not noticing her abnormality.Joan said hello, walked out of the house, and walked nervously back to her room.

She seemed to be in a daze, and she didn't even pay attention to Caius behind her, and almost shut him out when the door was closed.Caius pushed open the door, grabbed her by the wrist, stopped her, and looked at her questioningly.

Joan no longer knew how to react. There were too many and complicated things happening to her, which made her slowly blur the plot track in the book, and she couldn't put all her energy on Bella and Edward like reading a book. It was her sudden trigger that reminded her.

Bella and Edward will be back in half a month, but they won't be two when they come back. With the baby Bella is pregnant, almost no one will know that she is not a bloodthirsty devil child except her.

Bella almost died to bring the child into this world, and until the child was of a certain age, she grew up quietly and happily.

But things were different. Caius was in Forks, and he had no tolerance for bloodthirsty devil children.With the Volturi's speed and ability, if they were discovered at this time, the Karen family would not have any breathing time, and Alice would have no chance to find the boy who had the same experience. Both Bella and Renesmee would die.

Joan had no way to explain anything to Caius. She avoided his gaze, tried to remain calm, and took out a book with trembling hands and put it in Caius's hand.

In any case, she would let Caius go before they returned.
