Bella has been around us a lot lately. So much so, that my house smells like human. Not the best when you are hungry by the way. It is fucking up my thought process. Kathrine has been hanging with the girls. I dont mind it, but I miss my mate. I have been cooped up in this room for days trying to figure out how to subdue my aunt. It is driving me insane. But I think I have a pretty solid idea. There is this dagger thing that my father used against Niklaus. It puts you in a never-ending state of pain. So much pain, that it immobilizes you. If I can make a needle have the same effects, I can make it work. Why wont we just kill her you may ask. It is because witches can do magic beyond the grave. If one stupid witch gives them access to a drop of power, it is over with. So, she must be contained. I am working on the spell when Jasper comes into my room. I looked over and gave him a smile.

Me: Whats up Jas?

Jas: Just checking on you. You havent been out of the room in a couple of days. Kathrine is getting worried.

Me: She could have come up. The same way you did. Plus, I am trying to finish this spell. I didnt realize that I was in here for so long.

Jas: What spell? Do you need help?

Me: Actually, yes. But this is going to be painful.

I take the needle I have been channeling power into the last couple of days into my hand. I start my incantation. The candles in the room start to light and I know I have the spell down pact. As I do the spell, I start thinking about my childhood. More specifically, all of the times my father put his hands on me. I use the memories to add more physical pain to the spell. I found the spell that the dagger is coated with, my memories will intensify the pain the person is in exponentially. It takes about 10 minutes to finish the spell. In total it took around 3 or 4 days. Jasper silently sits there waiting on me to finish the spell. When I finish, he turns to me.

Jas: How painful?

I give him a look.

Me: You have never experienced it before. If Ive done this right, you will not be able to move or even think. It will be like if a human laid in multiple fire ant beds. But the ants venom is increased by 100 and the person was paralyzed. My example may even be an understatement.

Jas shakes his head and chuckles a bit.

Jas: I just hope that Alice doesnt try to break your neck. She is going to feel something off the moment you do it.

Me: I can handle Alice. Are you ready?

Jas: I guess.

I take the needle and push it into Jaspers skin. His entire body goes rigid, and his eyes go wide. I hear some crashes downstairs. Fuck.

Rose: Alice!

Alice: Get off of me!

I hear multiple people running toward me and someone tries to tackle me. Kathrine is quickly by my side. I grab Alice and pin her down while Kathrine tries to talk some sense into her.

Alice: Stop! You are hurting him!

Me: Alice, I need you to calm down. I am about to try to feel his pain. I will explain the rest in a second, ok?

I transferred Alice to Kat and Rose while I forced my way into his head. The moment I go in, I feel on fire. My entire body feels like it is burning and healing at the same time. Like someone is using a jagged knife and cutting me a thousand times in a second. Ok, so I know this works second hand. I force my way out of his head and immediately take the needle out of Jas. He falls forward and I catch him. I hear him take a deep breath.

Me: Jas, are you ok?

Jas doesnt speak for a second, making me worried.

Jas: Ouch.

I patted him on the back. Thank goodness. Alice would have killed me if he wasnt ok.

Me: Ok, my turn.

Jas: That isnt a good idea.

I look at him.

Me: I would never ask you to do something that I wouldnt do. Plus, I am a lot stronger than most. We need to make sure this works. If it can hold me down, it can definitely hold her down. *I hand the needle to Jas* Ready?

Jas: I should be asking you that.

I nodded my head and he put the needle in me. I cant breathe. I can hear people still, but it is drowned out by the pain. I hear Kathrine freaking out. What the fuck. I think I am on fire. Am I even thinking? I see images of my childhood. My father. The beatings. The wounds. I can feel them all at once. I cant I am engulfed in pain. Pain isnt even the right word. There should be a word that means pain on steroids. I open my eyes after what feels like an eternity. I tell my body to move, but it isnt working.

Katherine: Naiah!

Shit ok. Get it together Nai. I force my arm up. It feels like a mountain is on me. I feel my fingers move. Come on Nai! Suddlenly the pain is gone. I gasp for air and curl in a ball. I feel hands being placed on my back. I know it is Kathrine. I look to see tears coming from Kathrine and Jass face. Jas can feel my emotions because of his gift. But why is Kathrine crying?

Me: Im ok. Why are you crying?

Kathrine: I felt it.

I look confused.

Alice: So did I.

Me: How.

Esme: I think it has something to do with the mate bond. Im guessing that once youve established it, it grows stronger. You will be able to feel each other in multiple ways.

Me: It makes sense. I am sorry for putting you three through that. Jas and I are the only ones who signed up for it.

Alice: It is ok. I freaked out. I didnt know what was going on.

Jas: So it works?

Me: A little to well, but yes.

Rose: So what now?

Freya: Now, we wait for her to come to us.
