He shrugged not looking up from his book. It was held in just one of his hands while the other was tapping his forehead rhythmically.

“Nothing to say to me then?” I glared throwing myself down in the center of my book towers.

“What is there to say?” he mumbled back. “You cannot be queen Ashai. I’m not entertaining anything that might be circling in your head.”

“Fine,” I huffed.

“Fine.” He smiled back

“You’ve been busy in here-”

“Is that really what you want to talk about?” I snapped.

He shrugged, “I figured talking about what happened at court today would be too fresh.”

Deciding to play along I rolled my eyes, “Yes, I’ve been putting everything in chronological order. Trying to figure out your ages.”

He shook his head, “Any closer to the great discovery?”

“If there was,” I glared over from my book, “Don’t you think I’d have told you? At least one of us doesn’t keep secrets from the other.”

“Fair enough my dear.” He returned to his own book. “Any questions about what you’ve managed

    The next day Helix came back with Yvet, I figured it was because they could better explain Helix if she was with him. He started in the typical fashion that many fae always did when talking down to changelings. I needed a history lesson, “Fae are taught by their parents about bonds and the difference between a mating bond and a non-mating bond. The first thing they are taught is that you are gaining power at the expense of opening yourself up to a great weakness. It can be devastating.”“If they’re opening themselves up to a weakness then why would anyone do it?” I laughed while picking at my breakfast. “You’re almost to the point of understanding.” he smiled. After breakfast we walked around the castle just to help stretch my legs. “I just don’t get it.” I sighed, “what am I doing wrong?” I hadn’t been able to feel anything about Dimitris, apparently that’s all I needed to do but nothing about what I was trying seemed to matter. I felt like all I was doing was thinking to myself, “

    Days later and I was finally able to stop myself from crying. I felt like I had failed Dimitris in so many ways and there was no way I could ever repair it. Yvet and Helix stayed near me though I did notice for one hour every day Helix would disappear. How had I not seen this before? All those times I thought Dimitris was sleeping next to me he was just faking it? How could he not trust me to know this about him? “How’s it going?” Conrad and Hectyr were visiting me today, I was still on bedrest. Conrad seemed to be the one to visit the most today though he brought Hectyr who honestly the only connection I felt with him was our shared windtouched ability. “Heard you’re healing nicely.”I nodded looking down at my hands. My right one was still wrapped tightly. Everything about my right side, the side I had rested on Dimitris in that forest, was burned. I was told the only thing that saved my life was the fact I was a changeling. No human could have done it. “Hectyr’s here to try and h

    “I strongly caution you against that.” Helix spoke now at full volume. “Are you going to try to stop me?” I growled and then flashed over to Yvet. “Or you?”Helix raised his hands, “For the record we both tried out hardest to stop you, but it seems you were too strong.”Yvet just rolled her eyes crossing her arms, “If she gets hurt you and I both know that defense will only get us so far.”I didn’t question it. I just pushed past both of them and sprinted down the hall. I knew where I was heading, the double doors to the forest, but what I was going to do to try and survive out there was still going to need to be a spur-of-the-moment thing. My feet stopped dead in their tracks though, as the rest of the Attason family were already there waiting for me. “There she is!” Anju smiled, nudging Conrad in the side to get him to also turn around. “Told you she wasn’t in danger out there.”I shrugged, “You thought that was me?” pointing out into the forest I dared to turn once more to see t

    I smelled that same stale scent of Helix the rest of the afternoon while in the library. Dimitris had left. I knew it was just because he needed to return to court duties but I was taking a stand on this. I refused to leave this room and I had made it a point that I was not going to go to dinner. “You’re going to argue for him I guess?” My grumbling didn’t need to be vocalized; Helix was well aware of my distaste for the situation. “He asked me to stay to help you today.” Helix emerged from the corner in full view, “I protested, but he said he would be okay.”“Help me do what?” I snapped, but my anger was misplaced. “You need to learn to control your emotions and your thoughts through the bond. It is dangerous for him if you are not in control.” I hated how professional Helix sounded. It was like he didn’t have any emotion in his words or care for anyone else. Rolling my eyes I continued to try to dismiss the situation, “He can just close off the bond then. Seems like he’s good a

    They were gone for far too long. Why did it bother me so much that they were gone so long? If I were a better fae and not some changeling maybe I would have been able to tell what was going on behind closed doors. Whatever this In camera was seemed private, but Dimitris… he was my mate. Shouldn’t I know what was happening?When I come back out, I need you to be calm. I can feel your uneasiness. Please trust me. I love you. Dimitris was echoing through my mind and I felt him trying to cast ease through me. Please, trust me. He urged once more and then I felt him relaxing away from our bond. Three spearhead bangs on the floor announced the return of the family to court. No one seemed happy though and I could feel Dimitris’s displeasure above them all. He waited for everyone to reclaim their place in the crowd. Choosing to take a seat, he wasn’t lounging as he normally had, his back was straight and both of his hands rested on either chair arm. “My brother has brought to my attention a
