Caroline's POV
Suddenly, a lady grabbed my hand. "Hey, are you looking for something? I can predict your future for her and also bless you young couples," the witch said.I turned to look at Jackson, and he nodded in agreement,besides that was the only way for the woman to let go of my hand.We got into her tent and there was a table in the middle of it with two chairs in front of it. She motioned for us to sit. Once we were seated, she brought out a crystal ball and started to move her hands above it.The ball glowed, and she suddenly seemed engrossed as if she was watching something from it. Her face slowly hardened."What is it?" Jackson asked, but she didn't say anything and only shrugged at me."Nothing really happened. Why don't I bless you now?" She said, but I could see there was something wrong and the sudden change in her tone made it obvious.She rose and started to chant some unknown words.

Caroline's POV"What do you think about the place? I seriously hope it's to your liking. I was thinking that maybe you would prefer something different," I heard Jackson's voice as he tried to arrange the bags we brought with us. Our clothes and other things were inside the backpack.I had prepared, after all it was a honeymoon so it would be good if we had everything complete. Lauwren was giving unnecessary tips on how to seduce him in case he was too oblivious to notice any changes when I wanted him. It was a crazy thing to teach, but Lauwren never cared about my reaction to it.My gaze darted around the place and smiled. The place felt warm and comfy even though it was cold outside, and I was already shivering. Besides, this was the enchanting winter castle and Jackson had insisted on us to come when he heard from Lauwren that I wanted to visit the place.I wanted it to be somewhere that we both loved, and not just one place that was to my pleasure. "I love it her
"What the hell are you doing? Can't you just do something properly for once? Get lost!" Philip yelled angrily at a maid, and the young maid flinched and quickly bowed her head to leave. Just then, Veronica was entering his office when she noticed it."What are you doing?" She asked as she looked around at the mess in his room. He had vented his anger on the items in his office, and now it looked like a complete mess. "Did you do all of these?" She asked curiously, and he frowned at her."What are you doing here? I thought I told you to leave me alone?" He snapped angrily, and she scoffed, tilting in her head to the side. He had gone crazy, especially with how he raised his voice at every little thing that got on his nerves, and it was the opposite of who he was before…Or was it still the same man but had perfectly hidden this much about himself to this point. Either way, she knew that he was going crazy for a particular reason and that was since she told him about
Caroline's POVI clutched his dress and fought hard to stay sane and not lose myself in the kiss, as it felt soothing and passionate at the same time. His hand went to my nape as he deepened the kiss even more, and it felt like the world slowed down for a moment and all I could feel was the taste of him and the warmth of his body. I was so lost in the kiss that I forgot to breathe, but he pulled back, and our lips parted before he looked at me with his eyes filled with emotions.I stared deep into his eyes, and he rested his forehead against mine as he tried to catch our breath. This might be the end, but I couldn't care at all. As long as I was with him, then I wouldn't mind being in his arms like this even in the next life.He was the only one who had brought meaning to the cruel, meaningless world that I found myself in.He had managed to break the walls I built around my heart and filled my insides with so much joy that I couldn't contain it as it spread to every part
Jackson's POVMy blood boiled hot like lava through my veins as I tried to compose myself. I knew this was a plan, and someone must've linked the information that we're getting married for them to track us here with such ease.I knew Peter wasn't lurking around somewhere this open, especially a place that only a few visited. It was well planned and whoever did this was smart and good at it. I heard Caroline hissed when I tightened my grip on her hand. I was oblivious to the fact that I had been squeezing her hand while being blinded by anger.He raised his brows at my statement, then he retorted before giving a signal to the guard to attack. I pulled Caroline behind me to protect her, even though I knew she didn't need any protection. She was good at defending herself, but I already made a promise to her, and I couldn't watch her get just as well.The first vampire that rushed towards us had his neck twisted to the other side. He fell to the ground, dead. I had no we
Caroline's POV.We walked outside hand in hand and spotted Jackson, who was standing just close to the door. He was discussing with Liam, and he seemed to be distracted and a bit…I narrowed my gaze, trying to comprehend his expression at the moment. Lauwren cleared her throat to grab their attention. She was already dressed up as well, and it was getting late. We had intended to do it earlier, but things came up that Jackson had to take care of.She managed to grab their attention and they both turned to look at her. His gaze shifted to me and the moment his eyes landed on me, he held his breath exactly what Lauwren had said.She nudged me by the side and I swallowed. Jackson took a step towards me with his gaze stuck on my face. "You look absolutely gorgeous," he complimented and tugged at the hair behind my ear."Thank you," my eyes scanned his body and I realized how dashing he was tonight as well. "You look good too," I wasn't that good with compliments, bu
