WE had done everything Manager Jon asked of us and so we were now free for a few months. It felt almost surreal to have nothing planned.

For the past couple of years, we were always busy.

My brothers had started to experience their soul bonds and I had to admit I was jealous they got to. I wanted to feel our soul mate, to see what they saw, smell what they smelt.

When we first discovered the same initials on our wrists, we thought it was just a coincidence.

But as time progressed and scientists investigated the phenomenon further, they discovered a polyamorous bond where a group of friends or family could share a soul mate.

My bandmates were my brothers in every sense except blood. I trusted them deeply, maybe even more than my family.

I was hesitant to know I would share my soul mate with them. My family was probably the most traditional. They were skeptical about soul mates. Telling them I shared a soul mate with six other people was difficult.

It took a few months for them to process it. When they discovered I would still have the same monogamous relationship, they caved.

I could still remember my mother's words when she first found out. It sounds ridiculous! Sharing a soul mate with six other men? What will people think? What about your fans?

During that time, I had just started seeing a girl—Ae-Ri. She was quite a boisterous girl who was more in love with the fact she was dating a celebrity than I.

Our relationship was rough and wrong. I liked her at first but as time developed, my feelings turned sour.

Guilt was a familiar emotion during this time. We started dating just before the pandemic occurred and after discovering what soul mates were. My tattoo had not appeared yet but I knew deep in my heart I had someone out there who was made for me.
