The servants collected their plates and Mr. Korr stood up. "Ladies, if you would excuse me now. I have some work pending that I have to look into immediately." 

"That\'s fine," Tessa nodded and Adeline passed him a small smile as well. Maybe he did know that he was the elephant in the room. 

​​

Tessa and Adeline used the opportunity to order some extra desert and enjoy talking. 

"Are you sure that you want to do this?" Tessa asked about her plans, "it is one thing to be thoughtful and helpful but other when you\'re sacrificing yourself for this." 

Adaline quickly shook her head. "I am not sacrificing myself in any way. I am just trying to find that link." She had sacrificed enough already. The sacrifices were made without her knowledge and they demanded way too much from her, the life of the two people that she could never imagine and this time she was not going to give them anything that she was not comfortable with. 

She further added after taking a bite of her cake, "the thing is it\'s going to take time. I have to look through the medical history to the point where they were actually discussing how it was possible that one mate by the other one actually followed. I have to find that point where it is said that it was commonly noticed and always happening." 

"Okay," Tessa nodded and placed her spoon down, "I have a few questions. I do not mean to ruin this for you. If you don\'t want to answer I am completely fine." 

Adeline gave her the get go. How hard could these get? After all, her aunt was only looking out for her. 

Tessa began, "The link is a nice idea. You might catch up to the person who had first noticed that but what after that? In your hands nothing would remain. You would just find that person who wrote about it and what his thoughts were." 

Okay, that did it. Adelen looked down at the plate and fiddled with the cake. What had she thought about after that, she had thought about nothing. 

"I don\'t know. . ." She shrugged, she could feel the tears building in humiliation, "why would you ask me that?" 

"Because at the end of the day we know nothing about them. We do not know their anatomy, we do not know their history. There might be a lot of things being hidden from us and the thing is even if you do find a way, at the end of the day it is up to them to keep it or leave it." 

She sighed and placed her spoon down. 

"I am sorry," she heard her aunt say, "I did ruin this for you, didn\'t I? I should not have said it in the first place—" 

"It\'s okay," Adeline cut her off, "I really did not think of this." She stood up and kissed her aunt good night. 

This was not fair, she thought as she climbed up the stairs. On reaching her room she closed the door and immediately spotted her study desk. The thick and heavy books on the desk and she sighed on the sight of them. 

What was she trying for? 

It was their work and if they did not think of doing this then why was she? 

A knock came on her door and she was ready to wear it when she remembered that all the people in the house except her and she had intensified hearing. They could even hear the answer if she whispered it. 

"Come in," she muttered and sat on the mattress, leaning against the bed. 

"Hello," zara smiled as she entered with the tray in her hand, "I heard that humans appreciate a warm glass of milk. I did add a bit of spice to it." 

"Oh," Adeline took it from the tray, "You did not have to do that." She smiled at her friend. 

Zara shook her head. "I had to. I looked at the heavy books on the table when I had come to call you for dinner earlier. You must need coffee too!"

"I don\'t. I really don\'t." Adeline muttered and placed the hot glass of milk on the bedside table. Supernatural had a different definition for hot and warm. "I\'m not starting them anymore."

"Why not?" 

Adeline shrugged, "They are no longer needed." 

Zara frowned, "forgive me if I am too forward, but when you brought them here, four thick books, you must have thought of something." 

"I did." Adelen admitted right away. There was no point in hiding it. She had not brought them on a whim. 

"Then what changed? You could not have possibly gone through all those books in a day." Zara pursued her lips. 

Adaline complentated on whether she should tell Zara or not. But what was the harm in telling her? 

"I was trying to find out why one mate\'s death leads to the others as well. It\'s not fair."

Zara sucked in a breath, "it is because we\'re not born whole. Being whole would make us too powerful which is why the goddess divided us in half." 

Adeline shook her head adamanty, "you are born half and you will die half. It does not make sense that when one half dies away the other one has to die as well. The other half can stay just as good as before!" 

Zara shrugged, "I don\'t know. No one has ever tried to find the reason why." 

"Well, I can.\' Adeline said immediately with a boastful voice. "We just have to find when someone thought about it and try to search for the reason why. From wherever he left his journey I am going to begin mine." 

"Then go ahead." Zara pointed over to the books, "maybe instead of leaving the journey for someone else to pick up you might actually find a way. Given the resources that we have today, I think you might be successful Ma\'am."
