Ta-da!! Here's the special chapter I was talking about. This also serves as a sneak preview of Starless.
Proserpina
(Caleb's Point of View)
I've never seen her this happy.
So beautiful, so radiant, so . . . charming.
I would have thought that seeing Jacob again would make her even more depressed. It was as if he would take her heart and life along with him. How could you love someone and welcome him back with open arms after breaking your heart into many little pieces. It was so ironic. She's just so . . . unique.
That there is my problem. Every single touch of her sends my blood boiling under my skin.
Now I know why Jupiter had wanted to keep Proserpina. Like Nessie, she puts life in everything. Her smile would make you want to smile. Her child-like antics were endearing. Am I . . .?
No, Caleb. You mustn't think of such things. For all I know, they could be engaged already. She always has that ring. Yes, maybe that's it.
But I have to try at least.
If she says no? That's too hard to imagine. It would be as painful as being speared by a sword, burning slowly at the stake. Too much to bear.
But I have to try. I cannot lose her.
She's my spring and my summer . . . my Proserpina.
I have to try. I need her in my life.
