Cora Bailey twirled her pencil in the middle of class and glanced at her right arm for the third time since it started. Paying attention was useless at this point because she couldn't keep her mind off of the words written there.
Test answers. She couldn't think of anything else they could possibly be. Her soulmate was cheating again.
People had different attributes that bound them together. Some didn't see in color until they met their soulmate. Others had black marks where they first touched that would turn into regular skin once it happened. People could even experience the same injuries as their soulmates until they met.
Cora considered that the absolute worst one to have but didn't want to think about that right now. Hers was fairly straightforward. Whatever she or her soulmate had written on themselves would appear on the other person.
