Immortal love (Caius)

My Sweet, Sweet Sol (Caius)

 I was so glad to finally be finished with my work so I could just see her. Even if she had already fallen asleep I just wanted to give her a goodnight kiss. As I opened the door I could hear her tossing in her sleep and whimpering. I rushed to her side I tried to wake her up but it wasn't working she was in some sort of trance. I shook her and shook her until she came to. Then all of the sudden her shoulder was slashed open and she was screaming bloody murder all I could say was "What the fuck?" and I threw my hand over her wound in an effort to stop the blood. I had to look away because the smell of her blood was so overpowering. I could see that she saw me struggling to control myself at the smell of her blood. My first instinct was to pounce and have a taste. The thought brought me great shame. I couldn't even turn toward her while she bled.

She closed her eyes and I felt the wound close under my hand, I relaxed for a moment and I heard her take a breath but she just broke down right there. I forced my bloodlust away and turned to her immediately. I pulled her to my chest and just felt her crumble in my arms. "Baby tell me what's wrong" I begged but she just cried and screamed into my chest like it was all she could do. My heart sank as I just watched her cry. I felt totally powerless, I couldn't do a thing but just sit and watch her break down before me. I tightened my arms around her as much as possible without causing her any more harm. I just wanted to bring her comfort, I wanted her to know I would be there no matter what. "Just let it all out. Breath...I'm right here love." I managed to say.

She cried harder and I watched as all the plants in the room turned into dust before my eyes, the sky turned black as the rain and thunder began. Suddenly I felt an unbearable pain that made me want to scream out in agony but I forced myself to remain silent. I felt my skin begin to crack and my life force slowly being taken from me. I felt cold for the first time since I died.

I stayed utterly still and just held her as she cried out. There was no amount of pain or threat of death that could tear me away from her when she needed me most. I would gladly die if it meant she would feel me there for her. There was no limit to what I would do to keep her safe. She looked up at me with a panicked look. I could see her trying to calm down to speak. "Caius" was all she could get out as she was still hyperventilating.

"Shh it's okay, I'm okay" I quickly said so she wouldn't keep feeling guilty about hurting me, I just wanted her to relax and not worry about me. I was rubbing her back continuously and leaving kiss after kiss on the top of her head. After several minutes I heard her heartbeat slow down and her breathing began to even out. Her body eventually went limp and she was asleep. I continued to rub my hand up and down her back. My heart ached, as I replayed the sounds of her cries in my mind. If I had tears they would surely be falling from my eyes. There was something truly heartbreaking about seeing your reason for enduring this neverending life being so broken and hurt.

For about 45 minutes I didn't move a muscle so as to not disturb her. After she fell deep asleep I laid her on my chest and slipped her under the blanket so she could rest comfortably. I didn't dare leave her side, not even to clean the blood off of my shirt or her sheets. I just let the smell of her blood burn my throat and nostrils like hot lava. I deserved to suffer, for even thinking about tasting her blood while she was in such pain.

I had no idea what had caused this terrifying scene but I would destroy whoever hurt my Solstice. Until then I would just hold her in my arms and make her feel safe. "I love you, I love you so much my sweet, sweet Sol" I whispered. I felt a real fear I never imagined I would feel in my lifetime. For the first time ever I was scared of losing the only thing that truly mattered to me. I looked at her sleeping body as she lay upon me and I feared for her well-being. She was immortal and all-powerful but everything she was carrying on her shoulders was starting to break her down. I knew deep down there were things she didn't tell me so that I wouldn't worry about her but regardless I worried.

I thought Aro was my biggest obstacle but obviously, he wasn't...something dark loomed over us.  Eventually, 3 hours passed since she had fallen asleep in my arms and she was finally starting to stir. I adjusted myself in an effort to make her more comfortable but she just threw her leg over me and placed her hand on a bare part of my chest where my shirt had lifted up. Her touch brought me comfort. Heat radiated all around where her hand touched my bare skin I welcomed the warmth of her touch. I placed my hand atop hers and waited for her to wake.
