"Can I mark you?" I managed to whisper. She was still in my arms, looking at me lovingly with a smile on her face. That's what I longed for but still I felt a knot form on my throat then on my chest.

"I am all yours Manik. You don't need to ask." She replied lovingly. I took out my canines and looked at her soft spot near her neck but I just couldn't mark her.

"I can't do this." I composed myself and loosened my hold on her waist. "I can't do this to you Nandini. If I mark you without telling the truth." I took a sharp breath. "It will more or less be like cheating on you."

"What happened Manik?" She held my hand and caressed it. She closed her eyes and I knew she was entering inside my mind and I didn't resist. I took a long deep breath and closed my eyes.

Few hours ago

"You better mind your tongue, she is my mate." My voice boomed in the room and for a moment or few the jury fell silent.

"Yea yea your so called unmarked mate." Harshad smirked and I swear if the laws wouldn't have bind me I would have killed him. "Alpha Raj had promised me to give his daughter to me when she would turn 18 but he didn't and so we had to attack them."

"That doesn't justify your act." Alpha Grayson, one of the jury member spoke out.

"The werewolf law states that the Alpha's are bound to fulfill their promise." Harshad paused. "Even if it costs their life. So she is mine. She is bound to be mine."

My wolf growled in anger listening to this.

"She isn't a thing that you are claiming yours." My patience level had dropped down to zero. I so want to kill him right now.

"She isn't less than a thing." And that was it. I strangulate his neck , pushing his head against the sofa.

"Mind your words." I snapped as he struggled to free himself. Only if Abhi wouldn't have pulled me back I would have killed him. I adjusted my coat while Harshad coughed.

"Calm down Manik." Abhi pressed his hand on my shoulder.

"Alpha Harshad how can we believe your words?" Alpha Suraj asked after I settled down.

"I have a written agreement done with the
Alpha Raj." Harshad put forward two pages agreement paper. I read it and this really boiled my blood.

How could a father simply agree to give his daughter to such a jerk?

This is so frustrating.

"So I want Nandini. You better hand her over." Harshad said. My wolf was growling in anger and I myself had lost my calmness.
I fisted my hands and clenched my jaw trying to calm myself but nothing worked.

"Alpha Raj is dead and with him the promise has also been buried." Abhi spoke out. I glanced at Abhi and it was no big deal to figure out that he was having a hard time in controlling his wolf.

"Promises are meant to be kept and if the person dies it acts as his last will." Harshad smirked and it took all my will power not to punch him.

"Manik give me the control." Parth said rather ordered.

"Parth let me handle it."

"I can't stand him any longer." Parth growled.

"Just hold on for a while." I tried explaining him and he sighed in anger.

"We can't go against someone's will to fulfill someone's promise." I tried telling it calmly.

"Who are you to decide what Nandini wants?" Harshad spoke out. I pounced my fist on the table."For god sake I am her mate."

"On what basis? Have you marked her? No right." Harshad smiled, devilishly.

"Mating is not all about marking. It's also about falling in love. It's also about caring for the other. It's also about understanding the other. It's about staying there for each other."

"But that doesn't matter until and unless you mark her yours?"

This jerk won't understand. It was worthless talking to him.

"We will have to investigate on it until then we request both the sides to remain patient and quiet." Alpha Grayson said, politely. "And Alpha Harshad your act is still not justifiable. You can't support the rogues to attack the other pack."

Alpha Raj!! Only if he would have been alive I could have asked him.

Why did he take such an immature decision?

"Alpha Manik." Harshad came up to me and it took all my willpower to keep my anger on check. "So when are you planning hand over Nandini to me?"

"Never."

"C'mon Manik I will treat her nicely." Harshad paused. "What goes around comes around? Soha..I hope you remember her."

"Listen Harshad..I have told you many times I wasn't even aware of it."

"As if I would be fooled." Harshad paused. "But it would be easy to break the bond between you and Nandini. I just need to spill the bean of Soha."

"Our relationship is not that weak that this would affect it." I managed to reply but deep down in some corner of my heart I was scared...scared to lose her.

N A N D I N I

I opened my eyes only to meet Manik's. His eyes clearly told me that he was insecure. He feared of losing me but why? It took all my willpower to stop my tears.

Why did dad do this to me? Why???

Am I just a thing?

Who is Soha?

What did Harshad mean by what goes around comes around?

Why is Manik fearing to lose me?

Many questions and only Manik could answer it. I looked at Manik hoping to get my answer.

"Soha she..."
