Immortal love (Caius)

Helpless King

Something wasn't right, I felt it within me. Solstice was in some sort of trouble. She left me so quickly which wasn't like her, and now I feel her in distress. "Demitri go tell my brothers that I won't make it to today's hearings" I said as I made my way back to my quarters. I suddenly felt a burning rage but it wasn't mine it was hers. "Master Caius, is there a reason I can give Master Aro and Marcus as to why you will be absent?" Demitri asked timidly. I knew he meant no disrespect to me. He was afraid to tell my brothers. His question still aggravated me nonetheless.

"They don't need a reason, if they take issue with my absence they can bring it up to me personally, now go." I waved him off and flashed to my bedroom. I was distressed, what could possibly make Solstice feel this way. I started pacing back and forth, maybe I could send a scout to try to locate her, I know it would probably upset her but I would risk her never speaking to me again if it meant I knew she was safe. Suddenly I felt her presence weaken, I could hardly feel her anymore. 

I fell to my knees and clutched my chest, it felt like I was losing her. It felt like all the air had left my lungs. It was an impossible feeling, I didn't need air but I felt like I was dying without it. I was paralyzed with fear and pain."Solstice, can you hear me love? Please let me know you are okay" I called out to her with my mind but I felt nothing. I screamed out in frustration and anger. I sobbed but no tears fell, I felt empty and cold.

 I didn't want to believe it but this felt so wrong, I felt alone again, and my sweet Solstice I failed her. How could I let her suffer alone? She said she could take care of herself but I should've convinced her to come to me the moment I felt something was off. I knew she wasn't being completely honest with me but I didn't want to push her. I wanted her to trust me now I have lost the only person in this world I loved and I never even got the chance to tell her. I let her blind me, I should've taken her the moment I found out she was mine. I felt so helpless and weak. Now I was furious, I had to find out who took her from me, I would make them pay. I would show them no mercy, I would show them how ruthless I could really be. I got up to begin my hunt for vengeance and I was out for blood. This is who I was, a monster, a merciless king.

Suddenly I felt a surge of a familiar warmth. It was Solstice, I felt her energy again she felt different...stronger. I stood still for a moment and relief washed over me. There are no words to describe what I just felt. I haven't felt true fear since I was a human and I don't even remember that, I can't lose her and I know that something almost took her from me today. This can't go on any longer, I can't wonder where she is, or if she's okay. I need to have her with me, I know that I will go mad if I lose her. She belongs here with me and I would burn the world down to have her by my side...forever. "Solstice I need to see you".

A/N: A short Caius pov :) I hope you enjoyed.

Also sorry for not updating on Thursday another Hurricane hit Florida... so there's that. I am okay and only lost power for a short while. Please do keep the people of Florida in mind a lot of people lost their homes and lively hoods. I am hoping that was the last one for a long while so we can fully recover this time.
