Anthony's POV:
When I finally made it to the cliff top, my eyes were immediately drawn to the legendary Tear of Edith.It was stunning.
When Jennifer saw the flower, she burst into tears and threw herself into my arms.
"Anthony, we made it!" Jennifer sobbed.
"We'll finally have our happy ending!"
"My love, you've been so brave and I'm so thankful I have you."
I smiled at her wistfully and held her in my arms tightly.
Just then, I noticed the countless scratches and bruises on her skin from climbing the cliff side.I couldn't help but feel guilty and sad.
"Jennifer, you're injured."
"Honey, as long as we can rid you of the Love Curse, this is nothing!"
Jennifer hugged me affectionately.
I cupped her pretty face with my hands and couldn't help but kiss her.
She was my mate.She encouraged me, accompanied me, and helped me reach where I was today.
"Anthony, let's go to pluck the Tear of Edith together,"
Jennifer suggested, to which I nodded.
Morgan had once mentioned that, in order to pluck the flower, we needed to work together.
Hand in hand, Jennifer and I started walking forward cautiously.
Holding our breath, we both focused on putting one foot in front of the other.
Fortunately, we arrived at the divine flower without any incident.
"Are you ready? Anthony, let's pick the flower in three...two..."
Jennifer held my hand tightly as we reached for the flower simultaneously.
Just then, the earth beneath us rumbled.
Before our fingertips even brushed the flower, the ground under our feet suddenly gave way.
Realizing something was wrong, I tried to pull Jennifer out of harm's way, but it was too late.
"Jennifer!"
I shouted, eyes wide with fear.
Countless cracks formed on the ground.
Jennifer lost her balance and was about to fall.
In that moment, I felt my soul leave my body.
Without thinking, I pounced towards Jennifer in an effort to catch her.
I succeeded in catching her, but that didn't stop us from falling.
With one hand in Jennifer's, I desperately reached out the other to grab onto something—anything—to stop us from falling.
Fortunately, I finally grabbed a branch sticking out of the cliff.
I tightened my grip firmly and tried my best to pull Jennifer up.
With my strength, it would've been an easy task any other time.
But we were in the snow mountain.The cliff and the branch were covered in slippery ice.
Despite my best efforts, I felt my grip loosening.
Damn it!
"Anthony, don't waste your energy.If you don't let go of me, you'll fall down too and we'll both be dead!"
Jennifer yelled with tears on her face, her feet dangling dangerously in the air.
"You know I can't do that!"
I gritted my teeth, trying desperately to find a firm grip.
"I can't watch you die!"
"But you will also die!"
Jennifer smiled bitterly.
"Let go of me, Honey.At least one of us will survive."
Jennifer's words were like a knife to my heart.Silly girl, how could she do this to me?
"No, Jennifer.I want to be with you until the end, even if I have to die."
Tears ran down my cheeks.
"I never want to be separated from you, Jennifer.Without you, my life has no meaning.How's that better than dying?"
I winced and broke out in cold sweat.
It felt as though my shoulder was about to dislocate.
"Let me go, Anthony!" Jennifer pleaded.
The whole climb back up to the top of the cliff, he held my hand firmly and guided me.
For some reason, it was a much easier climb this time than the last.
It didn't take long before we made it back to the top.
"Anthony, the divine flower is shining even brighter now! "I shouted in surprise.
"Maybe Edith has granted us her blessing."
Anthony smiled and wiped the tears off my cheeks.
"Let's pick the flower together."
I nodded with determination and took a deep breath.
Then, the two of us trudged forward.
I held my breath, but we made it to the Tear of Edith without a hitch this time.
Together, we reached out and touched the divine flower with trembling hands.
With a gentle pull, we plucked the flower easily.
I stared at the Tear of Edith in our hands with disbelief.
"Oh, my God, Anthony..."
I could hardly believe that we had really made it this far.
"Am I dreaming? Did we really just pluck the Tear of Edith?" I asked Anthony, still staring at the divine flower.
"Will we finally have our happy ending?"
"It was your deep love for me that moved Edith," Anthony said with a smile.
He pulled me close and kissed my lips softly.
"Jennifer, words can't describe how happy I am to have met you.It's thanks to you that the Love Curse will be lifted."
"If the roles were reversed, you would've done the same thing for me, right?" I smiled, kissing Anthony back.
After everything we had been through, we were exhausted physically, but we were in incredibly high spirits.
Instead of resting, we decided to head back to Morgan's house with the Tear of Edith.
As we made the journey back, Anthony and I kept exchanging smiles.
We were unprecedentedly happy.
I knew that there was no obstacle in the world that could separate us again.
