Jennifer's POV:
Fortunately, despite Caroline's suffering, her baby was born safely.
Elizabeth had been at Caroline's side from the moment she went into labor.
The past few hours must have been very stressful on her, because when I found her, she was sitting on
a chair with one hand on her chest.
I rushed over to help as I thought a bit of fresh air might do her some good.
"Mrs.Jones, let's go out for a walk.You'll feel much better once you get out of this stuffy room."
I helped Elizabeth up and waved at Anthony.
"You're right, dear.Perhaps I am getting too old for this, "
Elizabeth agreed readily.
Anthony and I took her out on a walk just outside the hospital.
"Once Caroline's child is born, she and her baby, along with Austin will be exiled to the island as soon
as possible.I'm afraid that she won't be able to make a full recovery."
Elizabeth sighed.
Obviously, she felt sorry for Caroline.
"Mom, don't worry.Caroline doesn't have to leave before she recovers,"
Anthony answered immediately.
"I'm glad that you agree, Anthony." Elizabeth smiled.
"Anthony, that's very generous of you because I didn't expect you to forgive Caroline."
I was deeply impressed by Anthony's words.
"You truly have what it takes to be a king."
"Well, you've managed to forgive her, haven't you? After all, she hurt you more than she hurt me."
Anthony gently caressed my hand as he smiled.
My cheeks burned crimson with embarrassment because I wasn't comfortable flirting in front of
Elizabeth, who looked at me lovingly and giggled to herself.
Fortunately, Elizabeth noticed this and quickly changed the topic of conversation.
"I can't help but feel worried, now that Austin isn't in prison anymore."
Elizabeth frowned.
"I can't bring myself to trust anything that he says.After all, he killed his own father for power."
"Don't worry, Mom.I'll have more men keep an eye on him."
Anthony softly patted Elizabeth on the shoulder.
"Besides, the doctors said that having some company could help Caroline make a faster recovery."
As I looked at Anthony in amazement, I realized how considerate he was, even to his enemies.
"I'm glad I don't have to worry about you anymore."
Elizabeth nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, Anthony, how long will it take to hand over the government affairs?" I asked.
That was something that bothered me a lot.
Caroline's premature delivery must have affected Anthony's work efficiency.
As such, if our trip to the snow mountain kept getting deleted, I was afraid that Anthony would have a
heart attack again.
"You don't have to worry about the handover.I'll take care of it soon.Everything will go as planned, trust
me, "
Anthony replied confidently.
"Anthony, Jennifer, please be careful on your trip to the snow mountain," Elizabeth said, looking
worried.
"That's an extremely dangerous place." I held her hand to give her comfort.
"Don't worry, Mom," Anthony said to her.
"We'll be fine, Mrs.Jones.Amelia has made us some potion that will help us to withstand the cold.We'll
be fine."
I told Elizabeth about Amelia's help.
"Well, you two should go back and prepare your things for your trip to the snow mountain.I'll look after
Caroline and Austin.There's nothing to worry about."
Elizabeth assured us as she came to a stop.
Her words instilled confidence in us.
As such, Anthony assigned a few attendants to stand guard at the hospital before he took me back to
the palace.
As soon as we came to our bedroom, Anthony started to pack his bags.
All of a sudden, beads of sweat started to form on my head, as the thoughts of Caroline screaming in
pain and Austin's blood-red eyes popped into my mind again.
"Anthony...I could sense Austin's agitation when Caroline was in pain earlier on.For some reason, it
made me think of you and what the Love Curse does to you because of me.What will happen if we fail
to remove the Love Curse? Will we be forced to separate from each other?"
I hugged Anthony from behind, pressing my face against his back, as if I was afraid of losing him
Anthony's POV:
I could tell by the way Jennifer's voice trembled that she was upset.I immediately held her hand.
"I won't let that happen, honey."
I gently stroked the back of her hand.
"Jennifer, you were chosen to be my mate by Moon Goddess.We are destined to be together.Nothing
will ever change that."
"All right,"
Jennifer replied, almost bursting into tears.
"Jennifer, please don't worry about us.We will get through this together."
I glanced at her and gave her a kiss on the forehead.
When Jennifer smiled again, I went back to packing our bags, feeling relieved.
It took about an hour to finish packing because we had to carry a lot of climbing gear with us.
We had to be fully prepared before we embarked on such a dangerous journey.
"That should be enough."
Jennifer weighed our backpacks and then looked around the room.
"Wait! We can't take any chances.I need to check if we've forgotten something.Honey, did you pack the
two bottles of magic potion as well?"
Amused, I laughed and shook my head at Jennifer's behavior because she was being overly anxious.
I walked over and pulled her into my arms so she would stop freaking out internally.
"Yes.I have packed them in with the other stuff.Don't you trust me?"
I took a deep breath and the smell of Jennifer's hair reminded me of how much I had missed her
beautiful body.
I hadn't had the chance to reacquaint myself with the curves of her body ever since I got inflicted with
the Love Curse.
Out of desperation, I reached out to unbutton her clothes.
"Honey, we haven't had sex for a long time, right? We should try to do it before we go to the snow
mountain,"
I whispered in her ear.
"I don't think that would be a good idea.It's not that I don't want to have sex with you, but what about
the Love Curse?"
Jennifer grabbed my hand to stop me from unbuttoning her clothes.
"If your heart"
"Don't worry.I've taken the magic potion to dull the pain."
I slowly slipped my hand into Jennifer's pants and gently rubbed her private parts.
"No! Stop before the curse kills you!"
Jennifer tried to change my mind, but her breathing became fast and I could tell that she was feeling
aroused.
I felt myself growing big and hard as I kissed her neck and stuck my finger inside her warm and wet
vagina.
"Honey, is this turning you on? I want you to wrap your lips around my cock and suck me dry.Babe, I
want to fuck you so hard, I don't think I can control myself anymore," I whispered in her ear.
"No! Honey, you're being very naughty right now!" Jennifer giggled.
"Don't you want me to give it you?"
I licked her nipples and rubbed her clitoris with my fingers as her body wiggled in pleasure.
"Give it to me, baby.I want it now, ah..."
Jennifer began to groan, and I finally lost control of myself.
I quickly took off her pants and slid my rock-hard cock inside her and started making love to her.
"Babe, yes! Harder! Harder!"
Jennifer wrapped her legs around my waist and pulled me in deeper.
"I love you, babe."
I felt so happy to have my cock clamped tightly inside Jennifer's vagina.
"I love you, too!"
As we confessed our love for each other, we climaxed at the same time.
