My princess,

You know I will always worry about you, even when you are right beside me.

I am grateful they take such great care of you, and because you told me to look after them, I must urge you to talk to prince Ajax.

Eamon, as the protective big brother, refuses to tell the twins the reason why everything happened as it did. I suppose Kymme does not remember at all, perhaps the shock was too great to stick to her?

Of course, Brileigh does. She has always had a mind too great for her own good, you told me that a lot. Well, you are proven right as always. She knows prince Ajax is her soulmate and she remembers that night. Simply said she is broken.

No one noticed, she hid it very well, and we can not know how deep the tear in her heart is. Nor do I wish to ever experience it. Your sister is very strong but you knew that much, did you not?

We discovered her condition when the Dark court visited and her soulmate had to go through agony during the night. Eamon flipped, obviously, we could not find her. When finally Prince Ajax retrieved her she was ice cold and repeatedly asked him why he had to do it.

She is more closed off towards others now and I believe she had presumptions that we are hiding secrets. She evidently grilled Eamon for information as he tried to do the same - none won. I believe she will refuse to speak to your brother until he tells her, and we both know him. He will not do it as long as he thinks it protects them in an equal manner.

If ever I had believed it would result in such devastation for your sister, I would have argued with your brother and refused to collaborate. According to prince Ajax, he is her greatest demon. I can not imagine living in the knowledge that that is what your soulmate thinks of you.

However, it is too late for us to back out now and I am certain he will cut short our letters if we did. Your letters are the light in the darkness to me, I would be lost without them. But, my beautiful princess, I will if you wish it.

Despite we all know she is hurting, she denied everything. She does not sleep anymore, I am afraid. She acts as though she is fine. I am at a loss of what to do with this complex family of ours. They are leaving for the academy this evening and I urged the princes to do the same. Perhaps being around him constantly will help her.

Now, you did ask me if I miss you more. The answer to that would be, I long for you more than you can imagine, princess. You know you are my light and all my stray stars, Adelina. I do wish to see you soon, I can not survive much longer without you at my side.
