but love in his presence. He wished me no harm. He was a Scorpio man so I had resonated with him more than Mother. She was a down to earth Capricorn lady and although we got on okay, we had our differences.
    ‘I missed you, too,’ I sobbed. The emotion that threatened, finally came up. Father had been the one to teach me that my emotions were my power.
    ‘Let it out. Like I always say, it’s better out than in. You don’t want a toxic stomach do you?’
    ‘Is she farting then?’ the other man asked.
    ‘Shut up, Derek! He’s talking about emotions,’ Antony chastised.
    Wiping my eyes on my father’s shoulder, I gulped fresh air into my lungs. When I pulled back, my eye caught Antony’s as he stood next to the man that must be his brother.
    ‘He said you weren’t going to be here until tomorrow.’ I hiccupped.
    Self-conscious at my emotional outburst, I kept my eyes averted from the others. My cheeks heated as Father put his arm around my shoulders and led me into a dining room.
    ‘I wanted to surprise you. I’m not trying to hurt you. I’m trying to free you. I imagine your mother has been telling you all a different story.’
    Father sat at the head of the table. I sat next to him. I bit my tongue when Antony sat opposite me. Wasn’t he just the hired help, or something?
    ‘Antony and Derek are part of my team,’ Father explained when he saw me scowling.
    ‘Well, I think you need a new team. When my brothers and sisters come…’
    ‘They won’t be coming.’
    My gaze shot to my father as a small woman placed a bowl of soup in front of him. I barely noticed her but noted that she touched his shoulder as she went past.
    ‘Why won’t they come?’
    Derek laughed. I kicked him under the table.
    ‘Ouch, that hurt!’
    He sounded a lot younger than he looked but I always thought that about men. They were hard work when you lived with six of them. The younger they were, the more they acted like idiots.
    ‘I thought we had a special bond, Pisces. You saw me as a father much more than the others did. You’re the reason I wanted you kids to have a chance to live your own lives. You should’ve gone to school and mixed with others your own age.’
    ‘What about the—’
    Father silenced me by raising his hand. He flicked his eyes towards the two men sitting opposite me so I shut my mouth. They were a part of his team but I was unsure how much they knew about the twin flame mission.
    ‘You are powerful, dear, but you don’t yet know how powerful. If only your mother had allowed you to experience life, you’d know how to handle what was coming.’ He sipped his soup. The rest of us didn't eat anything.
    I kept my gaze on my father, afraid of what I would see in Antony’s face if I gave in to the temptation to glance at him. A noise coming from their direction forced me to look.
    ‘Stop eating like an animal,’ Antony snapped at his brother.
    The other man was slurping his soup from the bowl as he lifted it to his lips.
    ‘What’s coming?’
    Whatever it was, my stomach already told me that it wasn’t good. I often ignored the physical sensations but I couldn’t let go of the feeling that now wrapped itself around my body.
    ‘People are going to try and stop you from living your life purpose,’ Father said.
    ‘Life purpose.’ Derek snorted.
    My gaze clashed with Antony’s and although he had started to smile at Derek’s snort, it dropped as soon as he saw me looking. I didn’t know why I was drawn to him, only that I didn’t want to be.
    ‘What’s your life purpose?’ I wasn’t surprised that Antony was curious.
    Swallowing, I glanced at Father. Surely he would rescue me from the awkward question. He shrugged and took a drink from his wine glass.
    ‘I don’t know,’ I replied truthfully.
    Apparently, I was supposed to unite with my twin flame soulmate to bring more love to the planet. But that was all I knew about my future relationship. I couldn’t just churn this out to a stranger.
