🔻1859🔻

She laughed running away as fast as she could. She looked back only to see him getting closer with that same pure white teeth. "Please love I'm going to get you." She rolled

her eyes at very thought knowing he was right but she wasn't going to give up. She was a fighter. She stopped not hearing his footsteps behind him, turning around she

huffed not seeing him when arms snaked around her waist "Hello darling. A smile spread across her face turning to look at him "Have I told you that I love you Jasper

Whitlock?" He smirked looking up at the sky "You have my dear and I must tell you that my heart will always be yours even after it's stopped." She felt chills go up her spin

"Do you have to go Jasper." He sighed looking into her eyes tucking her long black hair behind her ear "I do dear but I will be back and when I'm back we'll get married like

we planned." She smiled looking at her hand that held the medium blue size diamond with small little white diamonds around it. She didn't care about big fancy things and

told him to keep it simple but of course Jasper wanted to give her the world just like his momma taught him too. "I love you Maci Annabella Cambridge." Blushing she

wrapped her arms around his neck "As I love you Jasper William Whitlock." She said letting her lips touch his he tighten his grip around her waist keeping their lips together.

🔻Present Day🔻

Maci wrapped the jacket around herself as she stared out the window of her new home. She could hear her ancestors in the kitchen cooking dinner and other crap she didn't

care about right now all she knew is today was the day she was supposed to get married a long time ago. "Maci dear your aunt Casey is finishing up dinner I think you and I

should practice a little." Her aunt Caroline said walking into the room. "Must I really attend school?" Maci questioned walking away from the window and over to the middle of

the room "Yes dear it would be hard for us to say you graduated early seeing as your only 18." Maci snorted crossing her arms "I'll always be 18 Aunt Caroline and alone." Her

aunt sighed. It was true, Maci was going to be 18 forever but she didn't know about her being along for the rest of her life. Caroline knows how it feels to grow up with this

curse in her family thankfully Caroline and Casey had stopped aging when they reached 25 but in Maci case she had stopped aging on her 18th birthday rare but not

impossible. Everyone in their family had stopped aging at a certain age but never in the state of a teenager, the only way they died was if they were killed by a vampire or

werewolf or even their own kind which is a witch. "Okay focus on the power in your body... Let it build... When you feel the power in your fingers slowly raise your hands and

see everything around you slowly lifting up." Maci could feel it running through her body, and she slowly opened her glowing violet eyes as she watched everything around her

lift into the air like the room had suddenly went zero gravity "Good good now slowly see it all coming down in your mind." Then everything slowly went back into its place and

she sighed her glowing Violet eyes going back to their normal crystal blue "Wonderful... Now how have you been with making things appear from another room?" Maci looked

down at her hands opening them and closing them before looking up at Caroline "It works here and there lately I've been trying with um weapons to protect myself incase I'm

in danger." Caroline nodded her head putting her hand together. Maci slowly started picturing the sword in her hands. She pictured the edges and the color "Wonderful!"

Caroline clapped her hands. Maci opened her eyes seeing her hunter's sword in her hands "Now your uncle Nolan said he will be here tomorrow to help you train in combat."

Maci nodded her head sitting down turning on the TV "Don't you dare." Her aunt Casey said coming in and slapping Maci's hand grabbing the controls and turning off the TV

"Set the table and then wash your hands for dinner." Maci groaned getting off the couch and taking care of what was asked of her. Later that night Maci stood in the bathroom

in her room looking into the mirror at her long black hair that stopped in the middle of her back. She let her eyes flicker between their normal blue to their glowing Violet.

Taking a deep breath she grabbed the scissors and began cutting her hair to stop just above her shoulders. Once she finished she took a shower to get rid of the hair. Once

she was in bed she looked over at the picture of Jasper and herself before closing her eyes.

🔻Dream-flashback🔻

Maci stared at the letter in front of her. It was her 18th birthday and Jasper was supposed to be home tomorrow to finish touches on the wedding then get married the

following day. But this changed everything Jasper was missing in action presumed dead but she couldn't believe it. She quickly got up running outside in the pouring rain, she

tried running as fast as she could to her father that was working outside in his cabin workshop. But she feel weak to her knees half way and like she was a ticking bomb she

screamed looking up into the rain. Lightening lit up the sky and the next thing she knows she was being struck by lightning. Her heart slowly began to stop, she blinked here

and there noticing her father's cabin on fire after being struck by lightning itself. Here and there listening would strike around her and then she noticed figures walking

towards her before everything disappeared.
