(Narrator's POV)
Carlisle arrived home after a long day of work at the hospital, entering the house, he was met by the sight of his family sat in the living, seemingly in heated discussion over something serious. Edward being the first to explain the situation of the day along with the strange feelings they all felt around the new girl. Taking in the explanation, he thought about it for a moment before going to his study and coming back with an old book, flipping through the pages as he voices his speculation on what might be happening "A possibility I suspect is this girl could be a soul singer or more commonly known as a coven mate.", "Coven mate? As in a mate that's destined for all of us? That can happen?" questions Emmett as the others process Carlisle's words, Alice joining in with fascination "What exactly is a soul singer? I've never come across the term.." her question voicing the thoughts of the others as they look to Carlisle for further information.

Carlisle nods in confirmation to Emmett's questions and further elaborates on the subject, "A soul singer is extremely rare and little is known about them, the little bit of information that's been recorded about them was by the few covens that had them in the past.." he goes on to sit with everyone and read from a page of the old book, "A soul singer is a once in a millenia occurrence. A soul singer is that opposite to a blood singer, where as blood singers incure voracious thirst and predatory attraction of a vampire, a soul singer brings an energy of peace and tranquility to a vampire. Every vampire has a blood singer at some point of their lives but not any vampire can have a soul singer for their entire existence."

As Carlisle reads the words written in the book, the other Cullens start piecing together the logic with what they felt and experienced through the course of the day, especially for the two blondes whom had close interaction with Azira. "That must explain why I felt so calm, almost.. safe, around her." says Rosalie as she leans against Emmett, the others nodding along and recollecting how they felt both in the parking lot and during lunch, Jasper speaking up with a tone of thought, "That may also explain why I felt completely calm and relieved being around her, even the emotions of others was blocked out from me but I was still able to feel them if I wanted to..", hearing this, Edward speaks up with a slight huff "Still doesn't explain why i couldn't read her mind.." at his words, Esme asks Carlisle, "Could there be a reason for that in the book? Anything else written about Soul singers?" flipping through the book, minimal information is given on soul singers, the last few sentences of which says; "Losing a soul singer is the most dangerous thing for vampires who are blessed with them. Blood singers leave emptiness that can be filled, Mates leave rifts that are never smoothed out, but Soul singers leave a void the implodes on itself with time."

Looking at the philosophical words in bold, a silence falls over the Olympic coven, each member deep in thought and processing the weight and meaning of the words, an odd sense of fascination, trepidation and even.. affection at the possibility of having such a rare thing as a Soul singer and to have the luck of meeting her so unexpectedly. Their thoughts briefly flicker to the thought of Azira, remembering every detail of her features and finding themselves more and more attracted to her appeal, shaking the thoughts from their heads, they begin to discuss the way forward from here.

[Meanwhile]
(Azira's POV)
I stretched as I arrived home, picking up Jellybean and petting him as I move about my home, putting my bag away and getting started on dinner before anything else, talking about my day to Jellybean as he lays on the kitchen counter, "..And then I met this group at lunch, not what I'd usually go for to associate with but I think they'd be suitable if I want to blend in at this new school. What do you think, Jellybean?" hearing a soft meow, I chuckle and hum in satisfaction as I finish the last dish before turning the stove off and putting Jellybean's food in his bowl, after he starts eating, I grab myself a plate of food and eat leisurely, going through my plans and the events of the day.
