Him, Charles Beckendorf, you, Silena Beauregard. Even being a daughter of Aphrodite, you never believed in soulmates until him.

It was like you two had string that connected you somehow. Wherever you went, you seemed to see him. You couldn’t stop thinking about him.

And one day, he asked to be your boyfriend, and everything went up into sparks - good sparks, of course. You loved him and he loved you. People called you soulmates.

But you had an argument that you were pretty sure would completely ruin everything. You couldn’t stand being away from him.

And of course, the string pulled you back. You walked into the forge and Beckendorf saw you, lifting up his wielding mask and gazing at you.

"Silena," he said softly.
