Klaire's POV:

In the corner of the room, I saw Sidney sitting against the bed that was there, she had her head in her knees and she rocked back and forth slightly. I felt sad for her, finding out that Oscar was using her for her magic and that her mother wasn't even alive all this time; not that I cared for Martha anymore, but I knew how she was feeling with her parent dead.

I knocked on the door gently and she looked at me, "yes?" She asked quietly and I walked in and walked over to her bed. She had been here for three days but she hadn't come out of her room or spoken to anyone, not even Zoe.

Zoe was overjoyed that she had found her mate, but decided that it was a tough time for Sidney and gave her her space. I could tell that Zoe wanted nothing more than to wrap Sidney in her arms and comfort her, but I could tell Sidney was still confused with all this mate stuff. I was too when I first arrived.

I knew how Sidney was feeling, having once experienced all this stuff too, I was just human though, she was a witch. A powerful one too. I was confused with what a mate was until I felt unwanted feelings towards Jasper when he was emotionless, only then did I know how the mate bond felt.

I went over and sat beside her, putting a comforting hand on her back. "Are you doing alright? Do you need anything?" I ask her, I wanted her to feel comfortable here; welcomed. She shook her head and turned her body away from me, like it was a way of telling me to leave without being rude.

I pursued my lips and nodded slightly before getting up and going to leave. "Wait..." she spoke softly and quietly and I turned to her waiting for her to speak again. "Why was she bad?"

Honestly I had no idea why Martha was bad, she just was and always had been. She had a child and they got seperate when she was younger and she had always thought that her mother would be someone who would care and nature, as a mother should be.

It took me a few moments to find a right answer that would be easy for her to process in her tough time. "I think she was driven by power, as everyone would be. Even if people are selfless we all crave power in some sort of way, I just think it got the best of her." My phone buzzed then and I look down at the message Jasper sent me.

> Meet me by the car when you're finished with Sidney. Jasper xox

I smile slightly at the message before looking back at Sidney. "I just can't believe that she was like that. I mean, my Aunty always spoke good of her, I just can't believe that she was a bitch all this time."

Wait, she had an Aunty? As if we didn't need anymore problems! If her Aunty was Martha's sister then what would she be like? I shake my head at the thought.

"Some people have a nice exterior but their interiors are the worse thing." I mumble. Sidney stands up then and comes over to me and grabs my hand, I look down when I feel a tingling sensation at my fingertips and instantly pull my hand away. "Wha-?"
