After our talk, I excuse myself and walk out the front door, needing some air. I walk around aimlessly for a moment before I find a large tree to sit beneath. After I wriggle around for a second to find a comfortable spot, I finally give up and let my head drop back onto the hard bark of the tree.

I thought I had accepted having the others in my head, hearing my thoughts, and even witnessing my life like it was them going through it themselves, but the fear I feel clawing up my throat says otherwise. I’m not happy about any of these things, but I’ve been dealing with them because Declan is safe. Now, however, things have changed.

It isn’t that I regret the choice to save his life, it’s that I hate knowing that I’ve bound the four to me. Because that’s what’s happened. It is me that can hear them. It is my eyes they can see through, and it’s my soul that is tethered to theirs. Knowing that I’m responsible for that is a tough pill to swallow. Especially when I think about the proverbial bomb Fifi just dropped.

A soul bond went beyond a few mind tricks. It bound us so tightly together that death for one of us meant death for us all. That is the part that has me feeling like I've swallowed a brick.

“Those must be some hard thoughts, sugar, but if you keep frowning that hard, you’ll get wrinkles.”

I give a weak smile at Fifi’s attempt at humor, but I can tell by her strained voice that she’s not even feeling it, and we fall into a thick silence. As we sit there quietly, each of us lost in our own thoughts, I find that I can’t hold back the question that scares me the most, despite how selfish it might make me sound. “What if they hate me? Maybe not now, but in the future. What if they grow tired of having to constantly block out my thoughts, and it eventually causes them to hate me?”

At the tremble in my voice, Fifi leans in close and pulls me into a hug, revealing that her lean arms are also very strong. “Sugar, those four could never hate you. And not only because of the soul bond either. Just look at that porch. You see any resentment there? Because I sure as hell don’t.”

At Fifi's prompting, I turn to see what she's talking about and find all four of them standing on the porch, watching me. When they realize they've been caught, they quickly look anywhere but at me. Well, all but Maksim. He makes no attempt to hide his staring and the sight of them all chips away at some of the icy dread that has taken up residence inside of me.

“Thanks, Fifi. I guess I should...,” I trail off, waving my hand in their direction, and she gives me a sweet, understanding smile.

"Go talk to your harem, girl," she says and lifts a brow in challenge at the word she uses.
