"Hi Aurelia!" he said cheerfully while I stared wordlessly back at him. He was barefoot and dressed in nothing but a thin white shirt and sweat pants. "What no greeting? I hope you aren't still mad about the biding spell?"

I scowled at him from the other side of the glass. He was barefoot in nothing but a thin white t-shirt and a pair of sweat pants.

"I take that answer as a yes. So what did you do to get locked up like this in the Alpha's dungeon?"

"We are being punished for stealing from the Alpha. Now go before you get me in trouble!" I spat and laid back down on the bed.

How did he even get in here looking like that? And for what felt like the millionth time, how did he know where to find me? Maybe if I just ignored him, he would leave me alone.

I let out a scream when I felt cold fingers brush the top of my head and bolted to my feet. Liam grinned up at me from his crisscross position on my floor... inside my cell.

He was just outside the glass just a second ago, had he opened my cell without me noticing!?

"How did you get in here!? Get out!" I yelled. "I'll help you find your sister Everlee or whatever. Now is not a good time."

"Oh, I'm not really here. I just traveled here in spirit." It was then I noticed the soft yellow glow surrounding his body. It was hard to see in the fluorescent lightbulbs blaring down on us, but it was unmistakable.

"How are you doing this!?" I demanded.

Grayson had that same glow around him when he had appeared in my room after I had witnessed his dad beat him mercilessly.

"Oh this, is a little trick our family can do."

Our family? He had said our family. No Aurelia keep it together, he might have said our by mistake.

"No," I said.

Liam narrowed his bright green eyes. "No?" Liam repeated back to me

"It's something that individuals whose matting bonds are too strong can do. And we aren't mates!"

Liam raised an eyebrow "Oh is that what Grayson told you? The man loves the study of magic, but has no clue what is fantasy and what is reality."

"So there is no way we are mates too, right?"

Liam let out a laugh. "No, that astral projection is not something that two souls that have an extremely close matting bond can normally do. It's just something that members of our bloodline and something our mate can tap into with our help. We can project ourselves to whoever we want."

Our, he had said it again...twice.

"So I am you sister!?" I asked. The words felt strange rolling off my tongue.

He nodded.

I felt my stomach churn.

Why me? This was a nightmare. I just wanted to live my life in peace, and men kept coming into my life and messing it up.
