"What?" Korr asked the pending question going to everyone\'s mind in the room. "Tell us what is going on."

Alexandier paid him no mind and continued his conversation with Adaline and Xavier. "I need to know if you two found anything similar that morning. Anything from the stories told by your families that you found yourself witnessing that day." 

Did she? 

"I did, I think," It was Xavier. "I had received a bouquet of roses when I opened the door as the first thing in the morning. As you want it was for Adaline as a gesture to the Luna which is why I kept them inside." 

Adeline\'s frown deepened. Those flowers? She had encountered them on the dining table but she had ignored them given that Xavier had asked her to come outside. 

"And now what we have the missing is the umbilical cord," Alexandier pointed out. "Anything that you found to be binding. Something, like a rope, that can be tied?" 

Her throat dried up. The one thing that she had found could be remotely considered as a rope or be tied around somewhere...was the pendant. 

The pendant that she had found to be exactly like her mother\'s. 

Oh god, she closed her eyes. How could anyone know what her mother wore? She had been buried with it. 

"Adeline," Xavier squeezed her shoulder as if trying to comfort her but it was not working at the moment. "I think—"

"I know," she cut him off, before she finally willed herself and looked up at him. "You do it." There was no way that Adeline could admit that she had attached herself to a pendant that she had found in the local bazaar and that was the reason why she had almost fallen off a cliff. 

"Adelene had found a pendant that looked exactly like the pendant her mother wore." Xavier revealed. 

"Where did you find it?" Cassandra asked as ise trained on her son. It was obvious that Adaline was not going to answer with the way she appeared to look. 

Just as Xavier was about to answer they had a small voice, "The Market," 

He squeezed her shoulder again. She was being very brave. 

"A perfect place to hide anything in plain sight," Javier commented. "No one would have ever considered it to be any reason unless for just selling purposes."

True that, Adeline had never suspected it. In fact she believed it to be a pure coincidence that she had found a necklace just similar to what are mother wore. 

"I think I know what\'s happening." Alexandier announced. "The spell was very difficult and a demands what most witches cannot do which is why I did not anticipate it to happen." 

"What is it?" Javier asked, moving closer to his wife. 

Alexandier straightened up and sat correctly on the chair. His gaze sharper than ever. "Have you do a witnessed to changes in your behaviour? Some kind of attac or say a thing that the person said to you that you know they would have never done." 

"Yes." The words slipped out of the young couple\'s mouth even before they realised it and then their head snapped to each other at that. 

"Oh god," Adeline\'s face twisted into an expression that told everyone that she was going to try and she did. "It had never really been any of us, had it?!" She cried out as she palmed her entire face covering the sight away from everyone. 

For how many things had she and Xavier held each other responsible for? That made every time they had taken one step forward the magic or whatever it was that Nathaniel had unleashed on them had made them take more than 15 steps back! 

"Oh my god," she cried into her hands. How much more was it that she was going to be able to take? None of them had been responsible for anything that they had blamed each other for months. 

"Adeline," he pulled her hands away from her face and offered her his shoulder that she immediately took. Burying her face into his shoulder, Adeline let all of her emotions out. 

Her shoulders shook with tremendous amount of cries that left her mouth. She felt soft hands rubbing her shoulders and her back and she knew that those soothing hands belongs to her aunt. 

Soft rumbles came from Xavier\'s chest making Adeline whimper for more. Somehow all the emotions that she felt for being calm down to contentness. She sniffed repeatedly before Xavier pulled back and wiped her nose with a cloth. 

"There you go," he cooed out and placed a kiss on her nose, "my brave penguin." 

She giggled slightly before she ended up cutting. A glass of water was brought to her by her uncle in an instant and Adaline took only two sips of it. 

"So?" Alexsandeir called from where he had taken a seat. It was then that Adeline noticed that everyone was around her, even Xavier\'s parents. 

Alexandier stared at all of them emotionlessly as he stated, "it is going to take a long time for you to process what happened but we need to move forward." 

"So to cut it short," he shifted in his chair and leaned over the table, "there are, as I could say, decoys or changelings, they transfer into you and create problems amongst the two of you. All of this has been happening for what I assume, a few months?"

"Yes," Xavier answered on their behalf. "It has been a few months since then." 

"Must be because you too must have broken contact with each other." Alexandier mused. "Since we know what the problem is now we can start working on it. Tomorrow, we will start again. I think you will need some time to digest it all." 

With a blink of the eyes, the man was gone. All Adeline heard was the opening and closing of the door. 

"Well, then," Teresa muttered under her breath as she too, stared at the closed door before turning to Adeline. "You must be tired adelene. Let\'s go home." She patted her nieces back urging her to stand up. 

A sudden growl vibrated the entire room making everyone stumble to their feet and gain balance. 

"Adaline is going nowhere." The Lycan King monster loud and clear for everyone.. "Nowhere."
