the movement hurt his wounded shoulder. He looked a lot better with only a light sheen of sweat covering his forehead.
    ‘I didn’t think you could,’ I said.
    He wasn’t my soulmate. There was supposed to be an amazing feeling of butterflies and an instant recognition when we first met. I didn’t have that with Antony.
    ‘That’s good, then. I promise this won’t happen again. We’ll start to look for your soulmate today.’
    I was still, not sure whether to get out of bed, or stay where I was. It surprised me how much his words stung. He had just kissed me and now he pushed me away.
    ‘Yes, I better get started,’ I replied.
    He pulled me down so that we were face to face. ‘I would really like to be friends, Pisces. Let’s forget this ever happened.’
    Forcing a smile, I climbed out of bed. I wasn’t going to show him that my heart burnt at his words. Was I that insignificant? Did he just take advantage because I was a woman in bed with him? As I picked up my things, I vowed to never let a man do that to me again. It felt like crap and I had to bite my lip. It betrayed me as it started to tremble.
    ‘The doctor will be here soon. I’ll send Derek in to see if you’re well enough to get up.’
    I left without looking back at the bed. I didn’t want him to know how hurt I was by his rejection. It was ridiculous really. I needed to find my soulmate, not waste time with Antony. It was time to distract myself from my bodyguard by going back to London to start my search.
     

Chapter Nine
     
    The music thumped through me as I swayed my hips in time to the beat. I had only been to the clubs in London a few times. I figured I had to start somewhere. Father had agreed that I didn’t need Antony to protect me whenever I was with my brothers so I had left him at the house.
    ‘Here’s your boring drink,’ Leo shouted as he handed me a bottle of water.
    ‘You know I don’t like alcohol,’ I replied, punching him on the arm when he stuck out his tongue.
    Cancer was on the dance floor. She grinded against a stranger. His hands were all over her and I wondered how she could stand it.
    ‘I got Cancer another wine,’ Leo shouted in my ear.
    I jumped back as the over loud sound hit a nerve. Cancer was drunk. That was why she let men touch her. She had guzzled at least four glasses of wine. Aries joined us. He had a grin on his face and lipstick on his mouth. He laughed as I shook my head at him.
    ‘You pulled already, mate?’ Leo pointed to his own lips.
    Misinterpreting him, Aries leant in and pretended to give him a kiss. Laughter escaped me as Leo shoved Aries away, causing him to bump into a short girl. Aries apologised as he looked down at her. She melted under his gaze. Reaching up, she wiped the lipstick away from his mouth and pulled his head down for a kiss.
    ‘How does he do it?’
    I couldn’t answer Leo. I really didn’t know. Leo had his fair share of women so I didn’t know what he was worried about. He was antsy and I suddenly realised why. He tapped his foot on the floor and looked around.
    ‘Leo…go dance!’
    He glanced at me and then back to the dance floor. He was so lovely. He didn’t want to leave me on my own but his dancing shoes called him. He was useless at dancing but he loved to get lost in it.
    ‘Go on! Scorpio will be back in a minute,’ I called.
    He nodded once and plunged into the crowd. The air around me was too hot. I turned to go to the bathroom. As I pushed through the heaving bodies someone bumped into me and I tumbled to the floor.
    ‘I’m so sorry,’ a voice shouted as arms reached around me and hoisted me up.
    I came face to face with a pair of green eyes. His hair was dark and styled into a French crop. He wore a suit, which was odd.
    ‘I’ve come straight from work,’ he shouted, obviously noting the way I looked at his clothes.
    His gaze travelled down me. I glanced down at my long bare legs. The dress I wore was Cancer’s. She was shorter than me so
