"Meg darling, this was already discussed ,that she's to be here for the education," Andria told trying to reduce the tension that was beginning.

"There's a different quarter to stay for that. She's a mere human and no humans are allowed here!" she spat.

"This topic is not up for discussion Megan. And no one is moving anywhere," said Ruka his tone was low and dangerous. She seemed a bit taken back at his words like not expecting it. She got up from her chair with a screech. Megan looked my way with disgust and anger. With that, she left the room.

"We apologize for her behavior," Andria apologized.

"Don't mind Megan," Lizzy told shrugging her shoulder and passing me a bowl, "try this out; it's tasty," as though nothing happened. Andria gave me an encouraging smile and I ate my food.

Rest of my dinner went fine talking to Lizzy, Andria and Sebastian. Ruka did not utter a word and got up after completing his dinner. Louis kept quiet just listening. Aiden was smart for his age. He did not want his mother feeding which Andria told was the first. She was a pleasant person to speak and was a werewolf. Her husband was a vampire and Aiden turned out to be a werewolf pup.

Once I finished eating Lizzy showed me the place around the castle. She showed me the right wing where there was music room filled with instruments, the game room and then the art room that had paintings filled.

"Wow it's beautiful," I exclaimed looking at one painting. It was a small figure in the woods. The way the color was blended with each other was amazing. There were also sketches.

"Did you draw them?" I asked Lizzy.

"No," she said sitting on one of the stools there, "these are done by Ruka and Sebastian. They are pretty good aren't they," she said smiling, "I play the violin maybe I could play for you," she suggested.

"That's nice," I agreed.

"So what are your hobbies, Eve?" she asked curious.

"I listen to songs or I sit and read all day long. I play a little of piano too," I replied.

"Read? Seriously?" she said shaking her head, "there is a library in the right wing maybe I'll show you there?" she asked me.

"I would love it," I grinned happily.

"I'm sorry you had to hear that from Megan. She's really annoying," she was looking at the paintings.

"That's alright," I told brushing it off. I did feel bad but I had forgotten about it, "She's your family so I'll work on it."

"Please no!" she gagged, "She's not one of our relative."

I was confused, scrunching my eyebrow, "Then what is she doing here asking me to move out," I asked her.

Lizzy sighed, "She's Count Viscount's daughter and has this huge thing for Ruka. They did have a relationship in the past which was years ago. God knows what he saw in her before. She thinks that she is going to be his queen. Are you kidding me, she's nothing but selfish," she looked irritated but I was too occupied with the shock.

Talk about ex drama. Wonder what she had to say about we being mates. Lizzy was smiling weirdly looking at me.

"What?" I asked her suspiciously narrowing my eyes on her.

"Well I know you know that I know you people are mates," she said then got excited suddenly, "that was like the friends dialogue!" I laughed hearing this. Lizzy was one happy go lucky person.

"He told me about it just before dinner," I said to her picking a brush and twirling it in my fingers.

"None of us imagined him to have a mate and now of all. It was a total shock to believe it. He seems calmer around you," she said smiling softly.

"I thought he was a calm person," I said since he seemed always composed.

She laughed but i could detect the dryness in it, "He is, but never cross him Eve. Mate or not," I didn't get completely what she meant but I didn't press on it, "Its true that a mate changes everything," she said softly as though she was talking to herself.

"So we are practically sisters now," she said grinning. Now that I thought about it, we were. "So did you two French kiss?" I was caught off guard with the question she threw at me.

"No," I quickly replied feeling a little embarrassed with the direct question.

"Really!" she stressed the word at the end and both of us were quiet when she spoke again.

"I do know the pull of soul is not in effect yet and that's why during dinner Ruka didn't bother you much about liking a guy ,not that it doesn't bother him you. Do you know how an Alpha behaves with his mate?" she asked me. I nodded.

Alpha's were dominating and possessive of their mate. They were passionate lovers. A little thing about their mate would send them to a hurricane mode. Comparing to them next were Beta's. I remember Rini telling me when Alex almost sent a boy to hospital for trying to flirt with her.

"Ruka is a vampire plus werewolf hybrid. I'm not trying to scare you, but his werewolf gene is just kicking in now . Once you touch your birth date you can multiply twenty Alpha's emotion to Ruka's as he comes at the top hierarchy" I gulped hearing this.

"Having a mate has its own perks," she winked at me playfully and got up, "let's go back now." This had never crossed my mind. Now that it had, my mind was reeling out in a haphazard way.
