"I don't want you to mark me" I said quickly. "Why?" he asked me, his tone seemed calm but i knew he was far from it. "I have a commitment towards my pack" I told him, hoping he'll understand but to my astonishment his eyes were dark now and he held his palms in a tight fist. "You are my mate Templar, you belong to my pack" he said in a condescending tone. My blood boiled at the tone he was using with me. Nobody talks to me like that. Nobody. "Do not use that tone with me, Everett. You are not my Alpha, I respond to-" none, i was about to say, but had to bite my tongue to change that. I was not ready to tell him that I'm the sole White Shifter, not ready to tell him I'm The Alpha of my pack. So i lied, again.

CHRISTIAN One moment he's being a complete flirt and giving her goosebumps. The next moment he's being a jerk. One moment he's saying things that remind her of things she doesn't want to think about. The next moment he's back to being the cold Mr. Christian Reeves. As if he wasn't talking about them a while ago. "Ughhhh he's so frustrating!" Camille whisper screamed holding her head with both hands. "Okay what did I miss?" Jenna asked suspiciously. "What do you mean?" Camille bit her bottom lip and asked innocently. She knew exactly what Jenna meant. "Cami darling, I've known you for years now, I know something's up. I can tell from your agitation. So spill it, what was it?" Camille knew she wasn't getting out of this. "Umm... okay. Christian and I... kind of... might have... had... a-one-night-stand." Camille said carefully measuring all her words carefully at first and then saying the last part at once hoping Jenna wouldn't catch it. Jenna's eyes went as wide as her mouth was right now. Seeing her react that way Camille hastily added. "But wait it isn't recent. It happened like more than a year ago and I didn't know what to do about it so I just slipped out without saying anything, you know like without a note. Or anything. I just left." Jenna was still processing the whole reveal. "In a hotel room." "Girl you've got to be kidding me right now!" Camille gave her a guilty 'I-wish-I-was' look. "He is one of the hottest most eligible bachelor of California right now and you seriously left him in the hotel room without saying anything what were you thinking?" Jenna finally spoke. "I didn't know he was Christian and I didn't even know who Christian Reeves was for God's sake. And let's just say it might have bruised his ego." "You are damn right it did." Jenna laughed her heart out. "I'm in so much trouble, aren't I?" She covered her face with her hand. And Jenna couldn't stop laughing.
