l. I'll reject you!" Cameron reacts, as others ponder. Mane whispers into Sera's ears, "Let him reject you. I want you." But Sera brushes his lips away from her

d that you could be this vulnerable. You and a pack house have conflict issues, and yet you resolved it because I'm mated to his son? It definitely must have been a little issue." Sera rebukes."It's not, Sera." Ralph retorts. "Mane is even angry for two reasons - first, you were given to his enemy pack, and second, you didn't come for him when he had started having feelings for you."Sera chuckles slightly, "feelings?"Alpha Ralph nods his head while others keep discussing silently - silent and incoherent voices."I like it that way. But can you give me a few details about what happened between both of you?" Sera questions."It's not a matter to discuss in a few minutes.""I asked for a few details, not the full story.""Okay. We fought and killed one another.""What led to the fight?""We're returning to the pack, Sera." Cameron breaks the silent conversation."Oh... okay." Sera says and pulls Ralph in for a hug. "I'll love to see you again. When you see Mane, let me know.""And if you have any weird experiences with what's not a wolf or vampire, let me know." Ralph replies."Would I come to your pack to say that, or send you a mail?" She chuckles"Mind link." Ralph whispers and leaves the haven as Sera is left with Jasper and Cameron along with their security guards."Cameron has accepted you to be his mate, and you'll be the upcoming Luna for the Crescent Ember Pack!" Jasper joyfully says as Sera forces a smile."Can your pack do me a favor?" Sera asks."Sure, sure.""Help me find Mane."Silence."Let's go to the pack; we'll do that." Cameron quietly affirms. He leads the way, and Sera follows them in."I would like to discuss with my new mate." Cameron tells Jasper inside the official room now."Sera, come up here, please." He requests.As they open the door of the room, they bump into Mane and Freya."Nice try." Cameron smirks."Mane for my mate, and Freya for another's companion." He analyzes."I'm not here to debate a point. Just allow me with my mate." Mane fervently requests as Sera lays her head on Cameron's shoulders."Sera, what did I caution you about this pack?" Mane asks again, his voice fracturing."Oh, cry baby, don't shed a tear." Cameron mocks."I assumed you were cognizant that we've already entered into a peace treaty." Sera articulates."Peace treaty? Who, when?" Mane is perplexed."Cameron, grant me a minute. Let me converse with Mane." Sera says and departs with Mane.There's a clamorous but indistinct altercation between Cameron and Freya as Sera exits."Mane, what are you doing? Did you save me just to claim me?" Sera questions, aiming for a cold-hearted tone."Sera, I explicitly told you not to come to the battlefield, yet you chose to defy my words. I told you not...""...to come to the party." Sera interjects.She sighs, "I'm well aware. And I apologize for disobeying you, but it's for my own well-being. You can plead with your true mate since you rejected her a month ago. Just go back to her. I've already found my mate.""Do you have feelings for him?" Mane asks, gazing into her eyes. Sera avoids eye contact, trying to suppress her emotions and avoid making a hasty decision."Not really, but I certainly will." She admits."Can you foresee the future?""Yes!" Sera affirms. "I can see that I'll be fine!""Damn!" Mane exclaims with a breaking voice. "You belong to our pack house, Sera. Why this sudden switch?""I was only in your pack house for a few weeks. It's been less than half a year or a year. This is my mate. Mane, do you not understand? I know it's hard to let go, and I appreciate your help. I'll repay you, but not by being
