Daniel was in office room wasting his time because being the irresponsible Alpha he is, he doesn't do duties. He was there to enjoy his success on making me jealous, which was only in his mind. I didn't get jealous. All I did was walk away when he and Shea were making out on the couch because it was so disgusting. Who would like to watch a couple making out? I am not sick that way. So being a good girl, I am, I left them to their business.

My memories roamed back to the fight with Kyle. I was so hurt that day. I felt jealous of Daniel being with Shea because he had just asked me, his real mate, to leave him. It was hurtful. But now I care the least. Yeah it is sort of annoying to see them both together but I have to be here.

I will get Daniel. Just to cause him pain.

"Hey Daniel," I greeted with a smile as I entered the office room, standing directly in front of his chair. He looked up at me with a frown which was then changed to smug look.

"What are you doing here Sera?" He asked with a smirk.

"Did Dave talk to you?" I asked cocking my head to side. He pushed himself off chair and towered over me. Why are boys so tall? It irritates me.

"Yeah. He told me that Manny was pregnant." He answered casually and watched me closely. "You know I can never get Shea pregnant if you are here."

"Why? Do I have that effect on you? Can't get Shea to bed?" I asked raising my eyebrows.

"My won't let her get pregnant because you are here. It always wants you." He told me with a serious tone.

I smirked at him and leaned forward. My breath fanned his face that made his eyes close. I knew what he was waiting for but I was not going to give him that. My face went past his cheeks and I blew in his ear.

He shivered.

I smirked in victory. "Why resist your wolf then?" I whispered. I raised my right hand and placed my index finger on his arm sliding it down slowly.

I could hear his heartbeat. His mind was jumbled up as if he was high.

And I bit his earlobe. I wanted to make it painful but appeared to be pleasurable to him as he groaned my name. He looked in pain when I pulled away and stood at a distance of about five meters from him. He opened his eyes slowly. They were glazed over. I knew he was having mental conversation with his horny wolf.

"What will Shea say about that?" I asked smugly.

He came back to his senses and seemed ready to kill me.

Daniel was glaring at me, his eyes were dark. He was angry, very angry. And what did I exactly do? Just seduce him and then left him hot and bothered. There is one virtue of mating bond, it heightens your needs for mate and there in a virtue of dislike too, you can resist that person even after the mating bond calls you back.

"It's my wolf," he growled at me. "Don't take advantage of my wolf like this. If you had accepted my rejection then things would have been easier. It's your fault."

"Come on Daniel, I thought you'd like it since you were alone while your fake mate is with someone else." I shrugged casually.

He glared at me. "What do you mean?"

"Clueless Alpha. I feel sorry for you." I said in a taunting voice. "You will feel that hurt everyday Daniel. Your fake mate thinks the game is in her hands but she is wrong. I have upper hand here. I have control over you and you can't even deny that."

I turned away and left him fuming.

When I mentioned about Shea, his memory went to her and her mate- Cane. I was actually startled to hear that she had met her mate and then offered Daniel to keep Cane as her dirty little secret. It was so sickening but kind of expected from Shea.

Kyle told me that Shea had tried to seduce him. She was not being loyal to Daniel but something was going on inside her mind. It was then I realized that she was trying to take revenge on Daniel because he let Cane go. Of course, being a selfish being, she wanted Cane without giving up anything. She didn't accept his rejection because she was confident he'd come back to her. He didn't.

Around Daniel she acts like a loving mate, especially now and around Kyle, she is a seductress. She is pulling off something and it includes hurting Daniel and me. If I'm hurt, Daniel will be hurt too. He tries to deny it but he feels that pain.

He is just a moron. He thinks he is doing everything right but he is not. And I hate him for being such an airhead.

My phone rang sending chills to my spine. The probability of same raspy deadly voice from other end made my heart thump painful inside my chest. Fear of getting into trouble clutched me. I didn't know what to tell Vladimir. He was not supposed to call me this soon.

When I looked at the screen, it showed an unfamiliar number but it didn't relax my muscles. I robotically placed the metal object to my ear. Instead of hearing a cold voice, I heard a girl talking.

"Where are you Sera?" Manny asked. I rolled my eyes. She almost gave me a heart attack.

"Pack house," I answered smoothly walking alone.

"Are you planning on getting Daniel back?" She asked and I frowned.

"Why would I want that?"

"Because he is you mate. And no matter how hard you try, you always want your mate. Mating bond is unavoidable. It will call you back and you will walk in the direction it wants you even though you don't want to, at first. But then you will realize that it's the best thing ever." She told me.

"I don't want it Manny. All I want is to separate Shea and Daniel because she is no good either for pack or him."

"What will happen to him then?"

"He can find another mate- I hope a better one. Someone I approve of."

"What if he wants you?"

"He doesn't want me. He is hell bound to get me out of this pack as soon as possible."

"It's just not him. It's about you too Sera. You are able to resist this mating bond now because you are human but how long? You will soon feel need to be with him. You will want him. You will get jealous of him with Shea. It will hurt you to see them together. Why don't you fight to get him? Why not show him that you are much better than Shea. Your actions and your harsh words make him feel that you are not better than that wench."

I chuckled at her tone.

"Manny, I am not going to show him what I'm not. He deserves what he is getting."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure." I said with finality.

"I want you to think about it again Sera. If you fall in love with him during this time and continue getting on his nerves, he will start hating you. And at that time you will regret it."

"I won't regret anything Manny. I will not fall for him. That's for sure." I said with confidence. "I don't want him to hate him and he will not hate me. Mating bond won't allow that, as long as it exists."

"What are you planning to do Sera? Are you going to reject him?" She asked frantically.

"No," I paused and then sighed. "I'm not going to reject him, ever."

"That's great. Think about what I've told you."

"I will. Thank you Manny. You are an amazing friend."

"One and only," she sounded so smug. It made me chuckle.

"Bye"

"Bye"

I hung up. I will not reject him. All I have to do is accept his rejection but I'm not going to do that either. My body was aching slightly and I felt exhausted.

I went to my room and jumped on bed welcoming sleep. I still crave sleep sometimes. Right now is one of those moments. I don't know why I feel like it. Whole stress of work is tiring me. I don't want to receive another call like yesterday. I just want to sleep.

"Hey Sera, wake up." I heard a voice say. I groaned as my head hurt a little signaling I needed more sleep. I didn't sleep properly. I don't know why but I was still a bit restless.

"Kyle, leave me alone." I groaned.

"Nah, I don't want to." He was really annoying.

"Fine, then come here." I said lifting the covers. He remained silent. If my eyes were opened, I could have seen a frown on his face.

"What?"

"Come here."

"But-"

"You lost the fight. Now do what I say. Come here and be my teddy bear. Wow that rhymes." I chuckled in pillow and then felt the bed shift. It sunk as Kyle got inside. He pulled me to his chest with his arm around my waist. I hope Daniel sees us like this.

"What Daniel is to you?" Kyle asked out of blue. I was startled by his sudden interest in the topic.

"He's Alpha of the pack I belonged to." I stated coolly contemplating if I should tell him the truth but finally decided not to.

"Okay," he said without pushing in further. His voice was more mummers by that point. He was falling asleep too.

It was then I felt darkness taking over me and I drifted off in a comfortable sleep.

The place was dark as night even though it was day. It was like a fortress, a dark antique room with unlit candles standing after few meters distance. It was a room with only darkness blanketing it yet two figures could see everything clearly as if they were watching it in clear daylight.

"You have to find the heir," said a dark brooding voice. It was deep and dangerous. It roused desire and fear simultaneously. There was something different, something so mysterious about his voice that attracting the female standing there like opposite pole of magnet.

"And how am I supposed to do that?" She asked in a steady yet soft voice. She gazed at him unblinkingly for few seconds drinking in his features.

He was the most handsome creature to ever exist on earth. The more she looks at him, the more enchanting his visage becomes.

His green eyes were fixed at her as he observed her, like he observed everyone. She was no special to him.

She lifted her left hand and ran it along her pony tail, a sigh that she was curious.

"You have to go back to your pack."

"What help will it do?"

"The heir was born to a werewolf and a witch. And according to my sources, the pack was Moonstone pack. I want you to go there, find out who the heir is and bring them here." He instructed her. She nodded slowly.

"What would you do to them?" She asked but regretted it when she noticed his face darkened.

"Do as you are told to do." His tone was same but she knew he was angry with her.

She knew whoever he was trying to find will have a very bad and brutal fate.
