My Mate Is A Witch
Chapter 33

“I don’t mind you keeping an eye on me, Lucy. I don’t have any problem with that as long as you don’t create any problem for Artemis and me.” Caroline said, coming close toward Lucy, and took the knife from Lucy’s hand. Lucy had t admit that there was something about Caroline that was quite intimidating. “I don’t know whether I’m wicked or not, but I’m definitely not a saint.”

After that, both Lucy and Caroline prepared breakfast together. Lucy was the main chef, and Caroline was assisting her and also learning to prepare Linguine with creamy Mushroom Sauce. At the same time, Lucy was observing her silently.

‘It looks like she knows how to work in the kitchen.’ She thought.

After breakfast, Caroline finally did her dark makeup, and she didn’t miss how Artemis was looking at her without blinking his eyes as if he was learning to do makeup.

“I’m ready.” Caroline said after tying her hair in a high ponytail and leaving some strands of hair loose, letting it fall on her face.

“So, I’m not allowed to ruin your makeup?” He asked, standing on his feet and reaching near her.

“No.”

“I think you should stop wearing makeup then.”

“Excuse me? You started applying your rules on me this soon?” Caroline asked, looking at him in disbelief.

“Well, what can I say? I just feel that you really shouldn’t wear makeup because you’re messing with perfection!” Artemis said, caressing the side of her cheek. Caroline opened her mouth to say something and argue with him about it, but she couldn’t replace the right word to say. But her heart melted at his words. “As much as I love a perfectly winged eyeliner and a bold l*p, there is something extremely freeing in being bare face because bare is beautiful.”

His words played in Caroline’s mind again and again. She immediately wanted to wipe out all her makeup. But at the same time, she was thinking about whether it was right to change ourselves for someone else. It was something that she never did for Mark. She wanted him to accept the way he was, but she was behaving differently with Artemis.

“Okay. I’m going to wash my face.” She muttered, feeling surprised by her own words.

“No. Let be it.” Artemis quickly stopped her because he didn’t expect Caroline to agree with him. Though he meant his words but at the same time, he admitted that dark makeup suits her. “I don’t want others to see how beautiful you look without makeup.”

“Sometimes you behave paranoid, you know that?” Caroline questioned him.

“To be honest, I don’t want to make you feel that I’m changing you. Whether you’re wearing lots of makeup or no makeup, you’re always the same person inside, and I know that part.” Saying this, Artemis kissed her forehead.

‘I can’t believe that within such a short period of time, I found such an amazing and loving mate.’ She thought with a big smile on her lips.

“Impressive,” Caroline commented when she finally realized what Artemis’s plan was. At first, they traveled from Rome to Venice, one of the most beautiful places in the human world. And then he bought a water taxi to enjoy their time together and also to explore the whole city.

“I’m glad that you’re impressed by my idea. Now, come on!” Artemis said and climbed in the water taxi first and then forwarded his hand toward Caroline like a true gentleman. She blushed before holding his hand and climbing in.

“Ahem, Ahem!! Mr. Gosling.”

Artemis g*****d at the voice of his bodyguard, who didn’t leave his side at any cost. If not for Caroline, he would have ditched him a long ago, but she asked him to let him join them.

“I can take a picture of you both.” Aiden offered, knowing very well how Alpha heir hated his presence, but he was doing his duty, and the fact that a witch was with him was not a good sign.

“That will be amazing,” Caroline said and gave a pose with Artemis, signaling him to smile. Artemis reluctantly smiled, looking at the camera. He very well knew what everyone was doing, and he wasn’t happy with the idea of everyone judging Caroline without knowing anything about her.

After a moment, Aiden stood near the driver in an alert position while Caroline was on Artemis’s lap, looking everywhere and taking selfies.

“I will post these photos on social media later, so please smile.” She insisted.

“Is this possible for you to create a wall around us because of which Aiden can’t hear or smell us?” Artemis asked because he didn’t want his bodyguard to listen to their conversation. Caroline nodded and looked at the sun before chanting something in a foreign language. He watched how her eyes turned white when she was casting a smell.

“Done.”

“So, did you make your account yet?” Artemis asked.

“Nope.”

“Let’s make it today, then,” Artemis suggested and asked for Caroline’s phone so that he could help her, but he didn’t miss her reluctance to give her phone to him. “I won’t pry into your phone. I promise,” he said, on which Caroline gave him her phone and observed closely what he was doing. She wasn’t dumb who couldn’t do this on her own, but she let him do all the things on his own while she just smiled at the details that he was filling on her behalf without asking her.

“I’m keeping the password ‘ARtemis + caroLINE = ARLINE@123’, Okay?”

“Perfect.” Caroline smiled.

“By the way, I got an amazing idea.” Artemis quickly said.
