It has been a long time... 😅 so sorry. This thing called life got in the way smh I hate it sometimes. But I am going to try and get back on track, I don't think every week updates will be possible right now but I will try to update whenever I can. I want to finish these books so I can write more one-shots!!!

Previously on Soulmates: 'Be ready, we should disconnect before we get hit'. We both pulled away and his arms were around my waist and mine on his shoulder just like last time, I stood there before walking out of his grip and going to take my seat.

Just as we were touching down there was a spear coming straight through the door and it pulled off the door making us all move to the sides and get down "What's going on" I see Jordan and Brittney looking on edge while the others put on a facade to look shocked. I heard the soft click of a gun and turned to them "GET DOWN"

—-------------------------------------------------

As soon as the helicopter is being attacked I turn to Damian who nods at me. The door was ripped off once we got close to the ground and we crashed into an open field which was a bubmy ride making me lose my foot and fall back until I felt arms wrap around my waist and someone grunt as we landed against a wall. I turned to see Damian and moved away from him "Sorry, are you ok" he nodded "Are you" I chuckled. 

"Fine, let's do this" Some of Talia's fake assassins started to poor in the crashed helichoppter making Zak swing his leg around to know the two who climbed aboard. I smirked before running out landing on the two of them before flipping off to come face to face with 5 others, I looked behind me to see Jordan here making me bite my lip before changing my stance to make myself an easier target for attacks.

As soon as my opponent made the first move I let them get in a few hits eventually knocking me down I could get back up Damian came and took them out before running to me "What are you doing be-Y/N" I saw another guy come up behind Damian making me get back to my feet and attacking them first while still letting them get in a few hits before we both backed off and I saw he was the last on since everyone took out the rest of the men who attacked us. 

I had Jordan's full attention now so I could make myself seem weak 'Now or never' I went to attack the guy again as he pulled out a hidden dagger I attacked him head-on before he tried to slash at me with his dagger and I dodge before finally letting him hit across my abdomen with the blade and I try to flip away letting him land another slash across my shoulder. I turn back to him to attack again before slightly moving causing myself to get stabbed straight through my stomach causing me to back up with the knife still lodged inside me.

"Y/N!!" I hear Damian yell behind me before I pull the knife out and go in to finally take the guy down with one blow. Once he was down I felt Damian come up to me and he cupped my face looking at me with a worried look "Are you ok, we need to hold pressure to that wound..we need.." I connect our foreheads and speak to him through our link 'Calm down, I'll explain we we get to our safehouse'. 

He pulls away but still wraps a hand around my waist to support me "Y/N!" I turned to my side to see Brittney looking at me with tears in her eyes I smiled at her "I'm ok, you don't need to worry so much" Jordan came in front of me next and kneeled to check the wound making me clench up a little bit. I felt Damian's grip on my waist tighten "lets got out of here in case they have a backup, mother made arguments for us at one of our safehouses"

Time Skip

Damian helped me the whole way to the safe house which made me smile at him being so worried. Once we made it to the house Brittney wanted to take me from Damian to try and clean my wound but Damian would not let her and Zak put a hand on her shoulder "Let Damian do it" Brittney looked back at Zak before turning back to me, a small smirk growing on her face "ok, feel better". After Zaka and Brittney walked away chatting Jordan stepped up "Are you sure you don't need any extra help cleaning that would, it looks pretty deep and Lina taught me how to fix that".

 I was about to answer but Damian beat me to it "it alright Jordan, I can take care of my partner. You should get some rest for our attack" Jordan looked at me with a smile before taking my hand a pressing a kiss to my knuckles "hope you heal up nicely" He finally walks away making me look at Damian before turning to him to connect our link. He wraps both his arms around my waist to steady me as we connect 'Let's get you upstairs so we can clean your wound' I shake my head 'As I said I'll explain when we are alone, I don't need you to take care of my wound'.

Damian pulled away from our connection "what do you m-" I grab his hand and start going upstair to look for a room and only see 4 rooms "Talia just loves making me sleep on couches" I chuckle at my own comment before turning to Dmaian "we can go up to the roof to t-" He looks at me "your staying with me" I looked at him "Damian I can't stay with-" Dmaian cut me off "your wounded, your my partner, and I am not letting you sleep on the couch in your condition...so your staying with me".

 I sighed "fine...if it will make you feel better" He pulled my hand into his room and then shut the door behind us "so what do you mean when you say I dont need to take care of your wound, it might need stitches bel- Y/N" I grabbed his other hand "my powers allow me healing Damian, I was fighting sloppily on purpose".

Damian's mouth parted slightly before closing "Remember I am supposed to be making them think I am not a threat, so that means getting a few wounds. I also can't believe you really thought I would be so careless in a fight" he smiled before pulling me into a hug "Sorry, I knew you are an amazing fighter and I should have known better" I smiled before pulling away and backing up so he can see me as I heal my wound.

He smiled "Come on let's get some sleep" He pulled me back to him and connected our link 'Mother said they would attack us while we were asleep so we had a few hours' I nodded 'she had to make them attack during my beauty sleep' he chuckled through the link 'sorry, but you don't need it so you will survive' I pause at his comment 'we should get some rest' I pull away and go to change before realizing we never got our bags off the helicopter. I turn to tell Damian that before someone knocks on the door. 

Damian and I look at each other before he goes to open it revealing Zak with two bags "Me and Brittney went to get everyone's bags from the chopper" he turned to look at me "I figured she would be with you" I turned away from his gaze.

"Thanks, Zak" I heard Zak chuckle "No problem Damian, goodnight Y/N" I smiled at him "Goodnight Zak". Damian closed the door and I went up to him and carefully grabbed my bag from his hand "Thank you"

Time Skip

I finally finished getting changed into some sleeping clothes before turning to see Damian sitting against his headboard "I can still go sleep on the couch Damian, my wound is healed". He looked up at me "I would prefer if you stay with me tonight" I nodded and got into his bed on the opposite side. Before I could lay down I felt Damian brush his hands across an old scar on the back of my neck making me turn to him "Sorry I...How did you get that if you can heal" I sighed before turning to him.

"It's from before I could heal" he reached out but stopped his hand in midair "can I?" I chuckled lightly before moving closer to him and nodding he slowly moved his finger across the scar "do you have any more" I froze for a moment before nodding "can I see". I bite my lip before I feel Damian pull my bottom lip from my grip making me look up at him, he was sitting in front of me now with a small smile on his face "It's ok you can say no Y/N I won't get mad".

I nod before pulling down the shoulder of my shirt revealing a bigger scar making Damian gasp before running his finger across the new scar "How did you...?" I sigh and look up into his eyes "I didn't exactly...have the best of childhoods". I felt Damian clench up before he took both my hands in his "Are you saying..were you" I kept my head down "It was all before I met my teacher, I'm fine Damian" he made me look up at him "that is not fine..its abuse Y/N" I smile at him "I've made it through worse Damian, I promise" he shakes his head.

 "I've seen you with short sleeves and I didn't see these" I shrug "I use my powers to cover them, people ask too many questions". He nods at my answer "Understandable...so how could I see the one on your neck" I chuckle "Normally my hair covers that or my shirt so I don't bother with the magic" he laughed before he stopped and "You don't need to cover them around me" I look at him "I want you to be your true self around me, in personality and body".

I smile at him before giving both his hands a slight squeeze "Damian it's better if I keep them hidden, I promise you" he pulls me closer "No it's not, it hides your true self..you said you would slowly start opening up". I sigh and go to deny his request again "Y/N..please...for me" I look into his eyes considering it but still hesitating "I will never see you any different". I shook my head before I felt his head against mine 'Trust me Y/N' I felt his honesty through our bond making me let down my guard.

 I pull away and see Damian pull his shirt up enough to see a short scar "We all have scars, yours run deep..but I promise you I won't judge you". I nod before letting down my illusion, showing all my scars before pulling my shirt up in the same place also showing a scar "Twins" we both laughed.

We slowly calmed down and talked about how he got the scar he showed me and a few others before I knew it we were lying on our backs with one of our hands attached "Will you ever tell me how you got one of your scars" I continue to look up at the ceiling "when I was younger...I tried not to spend a lot of time in my house so I ended up on the streets at all times of the day. At the time I didn't know how to fight too well and a guy snuck up on me with a pocket knife to mug me...when he found out I had nothing he got very angry and started to attack me and he managed to land his knife into my side".

 I went silent before continuing "his blade was rusted with caused the wound to get infected and it healed very nasty" I stopped and continued to stare at the ceiling before I felt Damian move closer to me and I turned to him. He had a small smile on his face "thank you for telling me" I chuckle "thank you for not getting mad" he laughed before resting his head against my shoulder before we heard something break making us both pop up "they are here" we both turned to each other before grabbing out stuff and get ready to face off against our fake attackers.

Time Skip

Everything had gone to plan with both attacks on all of us. We defeated all of them and packed up to leave before Damian radioed his mother to tell them we completed our mission. He let me speak to her as well so I could inform her we also managed to make Jordan think I was weaker than I was and it worked perfectly. We all got settled into the new helicopter that Talia sent after they shot our last one out of the sky before we started chatting amongst each other. Damian was sitting next to me as usual and Brittney and Zak were chatting together, I heard something about Ashley and saw Zak blush making me smirk.

 "You seen that too" I looked over at Damian who wore a matching smirk "I will get those two together, sorry in advance you might not see your friends as much" he chuckled "Neither will you" we both laughed before I leaned my head against his shoulder. I felt him freeze so I sat up quickly "Sorry...I" I got ready to move over "I guess I'll go talk to Jordan and-" I felt Damian grad my hand "Don't...sorry I froze you caught me off guard since I'm always the one getting close to you" I turned to look at him as he pulled me back down into my seat.

"Go ahead..we didn't get much sleep last night anyway and I'm sure you are tired" I slowly rested my head back against his shoulder sighing in contentment. I pulled away again "what's wrong" I looked around before turning to him "wheres Jordan?" he looked around as well "he went into the back room" We both turned to Zak at his response and I saw Brittney smirking with the look 'we are talking later' which made me roll my eyes before turning back to Damian who also had a suspicious look on his face as we both turned to stare at the door that separates the helicopter.

Jordan's P.O.V

I made sure I closed off the door in the helicopter before pulling out my communication device to contact Lina and Cobra. They finally picked up "How is everything going Jordan" I smiled "perfect, I don't think we have to worry about Y/N as much as we thought". Lina chuckled "So it was all false rumors, probably something Ra's made up to scar off attackers to the league" Cobra finally spoke up.

 "That is very possible... Since we know she is not a threat to our plans we can move ahead with our plan" Lina spoke up "how far are we moving it up?". Me and Lina waited for his answer before I spoke in silence "Even if Y/N isn't a threat, we do still have to deal with the Al Ghuls so should we move it up". Cobra still didn't answer us "it's alright you two, everything will go to plan".
