                                 *Justin's POV*

I tossed and turned on my bed, sleepless. I couldn't sleep, yet I was tired and needed rest. I have been overworking, doing a job for two isn't that easy.

But that wasn't the problem... I just missed my mate. Yes, she was just few rooms away,yet I couldn't have her. Emily.

Flirting and having fun with other girls have never been a problem to me, but why does it have to be when she is mine.

I was getting furious. I needed her and I need her right now. I jumped out of my bed and headed for the door, when I heard someone scratching my door.

"Who goes there?" I said as I opened the door with force, since some kind of weight was stopping it from budging.

"Ouch!" She screamed.
Wait... It was mate.
Oh, no I hurt her.

I bent down swiftly and helped her up. I looked at the way she was holding and rubbing her head. She looked cute.

"Are you okay...does it hurt badly?" I said as I moved closer to have a better look. I removed her hand and helped her instead.

I enjoyed the feeling of her hair on my palm. Her hair was soft and moist. She didn't move. That was strange for the Emily I know.

Every vampire instantly get attracted to their mate, once they found them, but she was different. She didn't like me.
That pierced my heart so deep.

"Justin... I want you closer." She said as she looked deeply into my eyes.
Her googly eyes were piercing my soul. I couldn't think properly anymore. Much more her smell.

She smelt as delicious as ever, but there was an extra smell, attached to her. I couldn't point it out.

"Justin? Would you do that for me?" She asked with her cute voice.

"I want you badly." I said as I wrapped my hand around her waist.

She stiffened but soon relaxed. I shifted my gaze from her eyes to her neck, where I will placed my mark and claim her mine, forever.

Thinking about that made my heart flutter. I never felt with any other girl, what I was feeling with Emily.

I leaned down to her neck and lifted her head slightly to one side, along with her hair.

I tucked my face to her neck and inhaled... alcohol.
That explains her actions. She was drunk . It is really hard for vampires to get drunk, but once we do, we say our true feelings.

"Justin? Why did you stop? Mark me." She said as she pulled me closer to her. The space was covered, I could feel ever part of her.

Her words were stopping my brain from thinking. This wasn't right, it wasn't at all.
' She was mine and will be forever. Why the rush ' I told myself.

' I want her right now. '
I placed a quick kiss on her small lips and stopped. If I had wasted a second, I don't think I will be able to control myself.

         
                    *****
(Savato clan)
                                  *Writer's POV*

Carlos was running crazy, crazy with fear. He had sent some guards to spy on Balian clan next move, but they never came back alive. Their heads were placed in parcel boxes and sent back.

He had little hope of winning this up coming war, all he was planning on doing was to slow it down, until his clan was fully ready for the war.

Everyone was distracted on renovation the partly destroyed buildings, and his main help, Justin and Derek, were distracted by their mates.

He needed to train and reset the whole defense plan, and he needed to do it quickly.

Sebastian wasn't going to rest until he got the throne of savato clan, with Carlos and Derek's head placed on the wall of the throne room as artifacts.

Carlos was waiting impatiently for two weeks to end, so he could finally speak with the council and make a general decision.

"Sire... another threat." Lola said as she walked into the throne room.

This whole situation tired her. she was tired of bringing messages, tired of the pressure from the emperor and people, tired of the situation in general.
Where was Derek and Justin when she needed them the most.

"What is in it?" Carlos asked. She could feel the fear in his tone. Lola had never seen him so shaken up about any threat before. Not until the Balian clan.
He must have been tired of this . He had seen too much horror in this few weeks.

She ran up the pile of stairs and up to his side on the throne. She lifted the white envelope which was closed with a seal and placed it into his hands. As sh lowered her head in respect.

"A letter found at the boundaries. it is said to be from Balians clan, sent on a raven." Lola said as she finally looked up to his gaze.

His eyes were red in anger and fear at the same time. She had seen this look a few times and knew exactly what happens next.

"How dare Sebastian say such a thing!" He shouted as his voice sent shivers down Lola's spine.
One thing she does each time he was angry was to bow down, or the anger shall be passed down to you.

"What's... wrong, sire?" She managed to say.

"Sebastian is wrong...I am done hiding like a scared cat... time to prove him wrong and play along. Two can play at that game." Carlos said as he gave out a cold laugh.

"What's next, sire." Lola asked as she looked up to his gaze. It was cold and held untold secrets.

"Training...pass a message. All clans under savato clan, should release men from age eighteen and above and some of their female warriors. No weak should be sent or their heads will be sent back." Carlos said as he turns back to his throne and sits confidently.

"Yes, sire. I will as soon as possible." Lola said as she stands up to leave.

"Derek! Send for him immediately. Tell him it is very urgent."

"Yes sire." Lola left at once.

"Derek, how much can you protect your mate?"
Carlos said as she picked up a blank paper and replies the message.
