In Power Seekers

Nandini was walking through the corridors of college when she spotted Cabir waling from the opposite direction. When he saw her, he tried to pass from there..

Nandini ( emotionless ): I need to talk to your Crown Chief..

Cabir ( surprised ): What..?

Nandini ( sighed ): College secret garden, at 12 p.m..

Saying this she went away while Cabir stood there thinking what to do..He knew Manik wouldn't come but at the same time, he wanted to know what does Nandini has to talk with Manik, maybe he find her good for his brother..

At 12 p.m..

In the College Secret Garden

This is a secret garden which is known only to the Chiefs of Fiore and Tartaros and their family members..

( Pathway to inside of the garden )

( Garden )

( River inside the garden, where Nandini is standing )

Inside the garden, no sun or moon will have an entry, only the nature..it brightens because of its color not with sun's or moon's..

Nandini was standing on the ledge near to river lost in her thoughts..She was sure that he would agree for rejection, but still it hurts..

On the other side, Cabir brought Manik on the correct time..

Manik ( confused ): Cabir, why did you bring me here..?

Cabir ( sighed): Look, I know you would be angry at me, but I think its needed..Sort it out..

Manik stood there perplexed while Cabir just went away..Before he could call out for Cabir, he saw that beautiful sight..Nandini was standing at the edge of the river, her hair was flowing with eyes closed..It looked like she was searching for something in her mind..She looked so Angelic and serene..he smiled looking at her..She opened her eyes when she felt someone's gaze and turned to her left to see Manik, but he hid his smile the moment he saw her turning back..

She sighed and walked towards him and that's when he got the point, Cabir was talking about her..

Manik ( pissed ): No way..

He tried to move from there..

Nandini: We need to talk..

He didn't turn back..

Manik: But I don't need to..

Nandini ( angry ): Mr. Manik Willfred Weasley, I Lady Chief of Fiore, Miss Nandini Grey Carlisle is here to have a word with you..

He closed his eyes in frustration. If any of the Royal address themselves by using their position and ask the opposite person to speak with them, then the conversation should happen, at any cost..

Manik turned back and stood in front of her with raging eyes..

Manik ( rudely ): What do you want now..? Oh, I get it now..You wanna show your 'right'..

Nandini ( confused ): 'Right'..? What are you talking about..?

Manik ( angrily ): Oh, now you are acting innocent..You know, you are very good in it..But it won't work with me Miss Carlisle..You might be my 'mate' but I don't care..For me you're not any mate of mine..So, don't come back of me..You girls know only that..

He was going to turn again when her voice made him stop in the tracks..

Nandini ( sternly ): I want rejection..

He stood there in shock..He has never thought that she would ask for rejection..He thought she would be also like the other clingy girls..but here, she wants him to reject her..He finally looked at her face to see her already staring at him..

Nandini ( emotionless ): It wouldn't take a minute for you to reject me..I have learnt that only a male mate could reject and only then the mate pull would have an end..So I am here for rejection..

Manik stared at her for a moment and then again got back to his rude zone..

Manik ( casually ): What's your plan..?

Nandini ( confused ): Plan..?

Manik ( coolly ): Hey, don't give that look..I mean, yeah I know its worthy as you are very good in acting but still I can catch you..so drop it..and tell me what's the plan..I am a Demon and you are an Angel, we both are enemies but unfortunately we are mates, so you should have some plans in your little mind to trap me and get to Tartaros..And so, you thought of asking for rejection as your first step..I mean, even after being Manik Willfred Weasley's mate, you are asking for rejection, so it doesn't even take a minute for others to know its your plan..Who would miss this golden opportunity to become my mate..

Nandini who was listening to all his rants in utter annoyance looked at him when he said, who would miss the golden opportunity to become his mate, she started laughing by now which made him frown..

Nnadini ( still laughing ): Oh My God, a golden opportunity..? Like really..? May I know, what's the specialty in being Manik Willfred Weasley's mate..I am the Lady Chief of Fiore, and I deserve someone better than the crown chief of Tartaros, someone who isn't arrogant, someone who knows how to talk with people without using even a tinge of anger or frustration in it..someone who respects girls..I wish I was mate of someone better than you and..

Manik who was standing with only irritation in his face got pissed when she said that ' she wish she was someone else's '.. He pulled her by waist, much to her shock and the next moment their pendants got locked with each other again..

Manik ( dangerously ): Never. Say. It. Again...No one is better than me, especially when it comes to you..

He left her and turned his back towards her..

Manik ( pissed ): I won't give you rejection..Because I want to..I want to give you pain..And for that I need a right, being my mate is the only right and I wouldn't lose it..

Saying this he left a baffled plus an angry Nandini behind..Her eyes have turned red in anger by now..

In Fiore

Nandini was sitting in front of her family who were sitting with 'finger on their lips 'faces..

Nandini ( pissed ): What does he think of himself..He needs to give me pain..pain..?Like seriously..What did I do to him..? I haven't even met him until I went to Power Seekers. he denied to give me rejection..What did he think..? That I will sit and cry like a teenager..No. Never..Nandini Grey Carlisle never gives up..Dad, you know what..among the Demons I hate him the most..And Mom, only Mrs. Weasley is sweet. And yeah, his brothers don't look bad either..But this guy..he is..he is a monster..I..I..ughhhh...I so hate him..

She just got up and moved upstairs to her bedroom while others looked at each other and started laughing..

Jai: God, she is really mad at him..

Rishi ( chuckled ): And the best part is, she was behaving like we have done something wrong..

Rajat ( raised his eyebrow ): No, the better part was when she wasn't ready to listen to any of us..She didn't give us a chance..

Others giggled..Nandita saw Vayhesh sitting with a smile..

Nandita: Papa, wh...

Before she could complete..

Vayhesh: Gautam, just check on her..Maybe, she needs you to get calm down..

Gautam nodded and moved upstairs and Vayhesh turned to Nandita..

Vayhesh ( smiled ): Go ahead..your husband won't like you to talk much about Demons..

Nandita ( smiled ): I just got it when you asked him to check on her..So, why were you smiling..?

Vayhesh ( grinned ): I was just thinking about the upcoming love story..

Rithwik ( confused ): Upcoming love story..?

Manpreet ( scratched his head ): Whose Love story Grand Pa..?

Vayhesh ( casually ): Your sister's Love story..

" What "

Nandita ( shocked ): Nandini's..? What are you talking about Papa..?

Vayhesh ( smiled ): Didn't you notice..? Manik wanted to give her pain..Pain..? What kind of Pain..? They don't have any reason to be each other's death..Manik Willfred Weasley always fights with Angels, but he never crossed his limits..He knew when to stop and where to start..He is someone who hated coming across Angels, he would do anything to stay far away from us, and here..his mate is Nandini Grey Carlisle, who is the Lady Chief of Angels, but still he doesn't want to give rejection..Okay, even if I agree to the thing that ' he wants to give pain ', but why should she be his mate for it..According to the world, she is an Angel and of course he is a demon..And in our world, a demon and an angel doesn't need any position in each other's life to fight or to give pain cause we are doing it since we were born..Then, why does she has to be his mate, for him..?

Rest of them went in deep thoughts..

Rithwik: That's a point Grand Pa..

Nandita ( smiled ): Does it mean..?

Vayhesh ( smiled ): It means..He doesn't want to let go off her..Its not love yet..but it will be soon..its true, mates want to be together every moment of their life, but once you hate your mate with heart then you will reject, no matter what..But here...

Rajat ( thoughtfully ): He doesn't hate her..

Manpreet ( joked ): Wow, A love story..and that too of a Demon and a Angel..Such a catchy heading..

Others shook their heads in disbelief..

In Tartaros

Manik was sitting with his family, but in utter anger written all over his face..

Cabir ( annoyed ): God, will you open your not-so-pretty mouth and tell us what actually happened over there..?

Arya ( teased ): Of course its the same thing he will tell ' All girls are same '..

Maddy ( glared ): All girls aren't same Arya..4 of your brothers have got mates, and 3 of them aren't bad..mine, Dhruv's and Cabir's..

Abhi ( sighed ): Okay, that's enough guys..Manik..why did she call you there..?

Manik ( pissed ): Why did she call me..? What happened over there right..then hear it clear form my mouth..Nandini Grey Carlisle happened..What does she think of herself..?

Nyonika ( irritated ): Manik..what exactly happened..You're behaving like some child who lost his candy to his enemy..

Cabir ( joked): Really..Manik, did you lose your mate to your enemy..But your enemy could only be Carlisle and your mate is the sister of them..Then..

Manik ( shouted ): Cabirrrr...Just.Shut.Up...Or else I wouldn't mind to throw you in the dungeon..

Dhruv ( shouted ): Shut up guys..Cabir, just stop annoying him..Buddy, what did she tell..

Manik ( shouted in anger ): Rejection..

Raj ( shocked ): What..? You rejected her..?

Sahas ( shocked ): What the hell Manik..? How could you..? Its such an important phase of our lives and you did it without asking any of us..

Manik ( frustrated ): God..I didn't reject her..

Dhruv ( confused ): You didn't..? Then how is it possible for a rejection to happen..Female mates can't reject right..?

Manik ( pissed ): Even, she didn't..

Cabir ( annoyed ): Then, what the heck happened there..?

Manik ( shouted ): Rejection..She bloody asked for rejection, which I didn't give..Got it now..?

Others looked at him in shock..They have seen him angry, most of the time..but today..it was high, very high..It looked like Bloodman could take control any moment..

Arya ( shocked ): I can't believe it..She asked for rejection..? She wanted to go away from you..?

Maddy ( surprised ): Every girl throw themselves on you and here this girls wants you to reject her..!!

Abhi ( held his head ): God..is it possible..?

Manik ( pissed ): You think I am lying..?

Dhruv ( sighed ): Manik, calm down..

Manik ( glared ): Calm down..? Like really..? She asked me for rejection..How could she think about it..?

Nyonika who was a silent spectator till now got something in her mind..

Nyonika ( smirked ): Why is it bothering you Manik..? You decided to reject her anyway..

Manik looked at her in shock..

Nyonika ( smirked ): What..? How did I get to know about it..? I've heard you speaking about it yesterday night..I thought you would come back home after rejecting her but here, something opposite happened..

Manik ( looked here and there ): Noth..nothing..She just can't ask for it..

He got up and went towards the forest..

Raj ( puzzled ): What's wrong with him..?

Sahas ( smiled ): You won't understand..

Raj just shook his head and went away..

Sahas ( grinned ): I hope, I don't need to elaborate why I am smiling..do I..?

Cabir ( smirked ): Of course not Grand Pa..Finally Manik Willfred Weasley is smitten..

They laughed at it..

Next Day

In Power Seekers

Demons were at their usual place..But today Manik was looking at the college gate every now and then which was noticed by his brothers..

Cabir ( smirked ): Manik, are you searching for someone..?

Manik ( bit his lips ): Umm..No..why..why did you ask..?

Arya ( smirked ): Because, you were just staring at the college gate since we've stepped in..

Manik ( fake chuckled ): What..nothing like that..

Abhi ( smirked ): Then, why were you looking over there..

Manik ( pissed ): God, You guys are just hallucinating..

Maddy ( pointed at somewhere ): Nandini..

Manik ( suddenly followed Maddy's finger ): Where..?

He looked over there to find no one..he understood it was a prank when he saw their brothers laughing..

Dhruv ( smirked ): Soo desperate huh..

But before Manik could shout at them, he kept his hands in his ears due to someone's scream...
