*Time Skip*

It's been a few weeks since the Cullens and my terrible older sister came to visit. It took two days for me to be back to my old happy self. My mates were so happy that I was smiling and happy. Ever since I was happy again, my mates have made it their life's mission to make me smile and laugh almost every second I would get. Even if we were in the middle of a trial or before I fell asleep wrapped in one of their arms.

 At the moment, I am in the library. I'm sitting on the couch wrapped in a fuzzy blanket since the room is so cold. I have fuzzy socks on my feet to keep them from being too cold. I also have on a soft pullover sweatshirt. In my lap, I have a sketchbook that doesn't have any new drawings in it yet. I have a pencil in my right hand. The lead of the pencil is dancing on the page that I have open. 

Marcus is in the room with me. He is sitting on the couch with me. I'm sitting so I am facing Marcus. My feet are on the couch not too far from his lap. My legs are propped up so the sketchbook has a makeshift table to lay on. Next to me on the coffee table that is pulled up closer to the couch is a case full of different colored pencils. 

There are two pillows behind me making sure that I did not hurt my back. Marcus has a book open and sitting on the armrest that is to the left of him. His legs are propped on the coffee table that my color pencils are on. Every so often he would look in my directions, either checking in on me or just stealing a glance. I'm not sure if he knows that I know about him looking at me here and there. 

It's just the two of us in the room. Aro and Caius are in the throne room. They are busy with trials. It's only the two of them because they don't want me to be alone and they need the guards in the throne room. 

Marcus looked up at me as I finished the drawing. I looked up at him. "I finished," I said. He looked at me before I handed him the sketchbook. He gave me a look before he grabbed the sketchbook from my hands. I put the color pencil that I was using back in the pencil case as Marcus looked at my drawing. 

"Wow, this is amazing love

"Wow, this is amazing love. I had no clue you were such an amazing artist." Marcus said. I couldn't help but smile and slightly blush at his compliments. "Thank you." I quietly said. He smiled at me before he handed me the sketchbook back. "No problem and I'm sure Caius will be pleased to hear that you are an amazing artist. Caius himself loves painting." Marcus said as I grabbed my sketchbook from him. 

I flipped to a new page before I grabbed my pencil. "So, a little birdy told me that a little someone is turning seventeen tomorrow," Marcus said. I looked up at him before I looked down at my sketchbook. I started to draw again. "Yeah, I am turning seventeen tomorrow. Who told you?" I asked. "Well, with me being your mate I was able to find out fairly easy. Meaning your dad told me and your other mates while you were fast asleep on the plane ride here." Marcus said. 

I nodded my head as I watched the pencil leave lines on the page. "So, is that why Aro and Caius are gone?" I asked. "No, they have many trails to finish today. Sorry to disappoint you, love." Marcus said. 

I looked up at him before I went back to my drawing. I started to feel a little bored so I put the pencil down on the table before I put my sketchbook down. "Is everything alright, my love?" Marcus asked. I looked at him before holding the blanket closer to me. "I'm a little bored," I said. He nodded his head. "Well, we could go out to the garden or we could watch a movie, or do you have an idea on what to do?" Marcus asked as he closed the book. 

He put the book on the coffee table before moving his feet and pushing the table away from the couch. I thought about it. "Can I see the garden?" I asked. He smiled at me before nodding his head. He got up from the couch before he held his hand out for me to grab. I unwrapped the blanket from me before I grabbed his cold hand. 

He slowly and carefully pulled me up from the couch. He then led me out of the library and down the hall. The two of us walked down many halls until we got to double doors. With his free hand, Marcus pushed the doors open showing an amazing garden. I looked at the garden in awe. There are so many different color flowers. 

In the middle of the garden is a white gazebo. "It's so beautiful," I said as I let go of Marcus' hand and walked away from him. I looked at him before I looked at all the different flowers. A smile spread across my face as I let my hand carefully brush over some of the flowers. 

I looked at Marcus to see that his skin is sparkling from the sun. He has a smile on his face as he watches me look around the garden. I smiled back at him before I walked over to the gazebo. Marcus walked up to me. "It's so beautiful," I said as I looked at the garden. "So, are you," Marcus said, making blush creepy onto my cheeks. I heard him chuckle, making me look down in embarrassment. 

The next thing I know, he put his hand under my chin and made me look up at him. "Don't hide, darling. There is no need to be embarrassed," he said. 

He kissed both my blush-covered cheek before smiling at me. He moved his hand that was holding my hand and put it on the side of my face making me nuzzle my face into it. His smile grew at my actions. "What have I ever done to deserve someone as amazing as you?" He quietly asked. 

He only looked at my face and my eyes, almost like he was going to forget what I look like. I looked into his bright red eyes. He only smiled at me when my eyes met his. " Tu sei Bellissimo amore mio. Sono cosi dannatamente fortunate." Marcus said. "What does that mean?" I asked him, wonder what he had just said. "It means, You are so beautiful, my love. I am so damn lucky." Marcus said. I blushed making him chuckle. 

He placed a loving kiss on my forehead. He kept his cold lips on my forehead for a little while before he pulled away. 

"I'm the lucky one. I have three amazing mates that love me. I also have four amazing guards that about me as a sibling should. All because my terrible cause of a sister dragged me here during a wild goose chance in order to save the guy that left her to die in the woods after breaking her heart." I said. He gave me a small smile. 

"At least you see the good in all that." He said. I smiled at him. We stayed in that position for a little while before Marcus' eyes moved down to my lips. I couldn't help but giggle at him. "Now what do you find funny, my love?" Marcus asked.

"Just you," I said. "Really, you find me funny," Marcus said. "Well, it depends on what you do," I said. He gave me a confused look before he slowly moved his head closer to me. "And what do you find funny about some of the stuff that I do?" He asked as his face got dangerously close to mine. I shrugged my shoulders. "Just some stuff," I answered. 

He playfully growled at me not giving him the answer he wanted to hear. I smiled at him. That smile fell when he lightly pressed his lips into mine. I was a little shocked before I closed my eyes and kissed him back. He held my head so it was close to his before he pulled away, leaving his cold forehead on top of mine. 

I took a few deep breaths trying to get my breathing back to normal. I slowly opened my eyes to see his red ones looking at me. A smile spread across his face. 

I smiled back at him before he pulled his forehead off of mine and he let go of my face. "I've been waiting a while to do that and it was worth the wait." He said. I blushed a little before a cold breeze hit my exposed skin making me shiver. 

"Come on, my love. Let's get you back inside. Before you freeze and before my brother destroys the castle in order to find you." Marcus said. I looked at him before I followed him out of the garden and back down the halls to the library.
