him.”
    “Because you are such a bitch, no one wants to,” I say
nastily and she actually flinches. “I mean that they don’t think that you need
it or want it. Show a bit of vulnerability.”
    “It is a weakness,” she says.
    “No, it isn’t. It makes the people you claim to love
actually know that you care about them.”
    “So Cole left you did he?” she says with a cruel smirk,
wanting to get her own back, probably.
    “He did. But he will return.” I cross my arms tightly in a
show of nonchalance even though I am dying inside.
    She shrugs, not really interested in my sorrow. “Fine. I
will take what I learned and try it. If it doesn’t work, though, you are coming
back with me to do as we originally planned.”
    “Wait. What about The Thirteen?”
    “If your tactics work then I will come back.”
    “They aren’t tactics, Liv,” I say with a sigh. “They are
feelings, emotions. You have to be genuine. If you want him to love you, you
have to love him first.”
    “I do love him,” she whispers and it is the first time I
have seen that she actually does.
    “Then stop being a cow and show him.”
    She nods. “I will return later. Good luck with Sebastian,”
she says and winks at me.
    “Excuse me?” I say.
    “Whatever it was you have to talk to him about. Your sire
was right, he can be volatile. That Faerie temper is something else.”
    “I will be fine, but thank you for your concern.”
    “Just looking out for you Lil’ Sis. You have grown on me.”
She shrugs.
    “Hm, can’t say the feeling is mutual,” I mutter and she
narrows her eyes at me.
    “That’s not very nice.”
    “Well work on your attitude and maybe you will grow on me
too,” I say and she sneers at me before she disappears.
    I check my phone but no calls or messages from Cole. I send
him a message begging him to call me and I hope that he does. I need him to
realize that he has thrown everything away by being hasty.
    “Liv?” Sebastian says from the doorway. “Constantine says
you want to talk to me?”
    “Yes, I do, but not here.”
    “We’ll go to my suite. I have some things I want to say to
you as well.” I gulp at his tone and his blank expression.
    “I’ll just tell them I’m going.”
    “I’ve already told them,” he says.
    Oh.
    He Teleports out without me, leaving me to follow. How rude.
    I find him staring thoughtfully out of the window. “I should
have known it was too good to be true,” he states the second I get there. “I
mean why would you come to me because of me?”
    “She did though,” I say.
    He spins around. “I mean you, Liv. Not her,” he spits out
viciously.
    “Sebastian, in her world the two of you are in love. Of
course she was going to come to you, even though it was wrong of her to pretend
to be me, I understand it. You have a connection with her, the likes of which I
have never seen or felt. You know why, don’t you?” I ask hesitantly.
    He just stares at me for the longest time. “I don’t care
about them,” he says. “I don’t care about their connection.”
    I frown at him. “But their connection is what ours will
become,” I say slowly.
    He frowns back at me, “What are you saying?”
    “When you touch me, what do you feel?” I ask instead,
stepping closer to him. He must know. He has to.
    He closes his eyes and steps back. “Don’t come any closer.”
    “Sebastian, tell me what you feel,” I say, stepping closer
again.
    “Like it is meant to be,” he whispers, opening his eyes and
I see his sorrow and his pain. “I feel like we belong together. Which is
ridiculous because I barely know you and you belong to our sire,” he says,
losing his temper and stepping closer to me. I don’t back down though, but look
up at him.
    “We do belong together,” I say quietly. “You know what I am.
I know you do. I know you feel it.” I reach out to him to touch his bare arm
and sparks fly. He flinches, staring down at me and shakes his head.
    “No, it can’t be.
