Everything was in place.

Except me and Zayn. We couldn't work together.

Firrelol had paired us together. He always looks for the best in Zayn and then he blows everything out of proportion.

We slept on either side of the bed, not wanting to interact. We asked him about it.

"Oh, yeah! I did that on purpose," Firrelol said. Nadia at his side.

"Everybody loves you as a couple. We did many tests and ran many numbers, it will give them hope and encourage them." Nadia said.

Firrelol always said it was better this way.

He told us to hold hands, hug, really make people believe that we were a couple.

God knows we need hope.

Firrelol and his little Secretary, Nadia seemed to control everything.

They sent out Half of the werewolves out to see what the vampires were doing. They had taken over our Villa. And, with them taking that land they can grow population.

Just what we need.

Nadia ran her numbers and she said there is no way that we could possibly defeat them at once if we are that outnumbered.

I was in the library of he castle and I was searching for a book. I have been seeing symbols. A symbol of which I did not know the meaning.

It was everywhere. Crested on he walls, displayed on the art on the walls, even on the people.

The symbol as a tattoo.

I didn't really know what I was looking for. A book, maybe with the symbol on the cover.

But there were more than one. Some people had the same ones. Many were unique.

"What are you doing here?" Nadia asked.

"Oh, reading," I tried to make it quick and simple.

"No. you are trying to find something. Something that you are clueless about." Her eyes were focused on the many shelves of books and the carving on the shelves themselves.

"How did you know?" My eyes went right to her.

"It's my ability. I can't help it,"

"What is your ability?" I ask.

"I can feel what you feel, see what you see, hear what you hear. Why don't you and Zayn like each other?"

I didn't know what to tell her. She deserved to know.

"We do, I know that we like each other. Just to shy to admit it,"
