In Power Seekers

The conference hall was silent..The Weasleys were just sitting still shocked with the new information..

Raj ( sighed ): Dad, she is a mysterious girl..

Sahas: Yeah..

Nyonika ( smiled ): But she was so sweet..She didn't behave like a Lady Chief but a normal sweet girl.

Manik was still lost in his thoughts.." What is she exactly..? She isn't a normal Angel..I could see something in her..Even Bloodman could see it..I never felt any kind of emotion for any girl till date but for her..I feel something..When I looked into those eyes I felt home..God Manik..what's wrong with you..You are just overreacting..So just..stop it.."

Manik stood up in a jerk making everyone startled..

Manik: Grand Pa..I need some fresh air..Can I leave..?

Sahas ( narrowed his eyebrows ): Go ahead..

Manik nodded at him and moved out..

Nyonika ( confused ): What happened to him..?

Abhi ( scratched his head ): He is behaving weird since she has stepped in the college..

Raj ( raised his eyebrow ): She..? Who is this she..?

Cabir ( smirked ): Lady Chief Nandini Grey Carlisle..

Raj ( surprised ): But why..?

Maddy ( sighed ): We don't know Dad..Bloodman was restless since the past 5-10 days and today morning he was even about to take the control..

Nyonika ( shocked ): What..? But how..? Manik is always good in controlling his Demon..

Abhi ( held his head ): That's what confusing us..

Dhruv ( kept his finger on his forehead ): But isn't it the same thing that happens when we were about to find our mate..

The other members looked at him in shock..

Maddy ( shouted ): Oh shit..How can I forget it..I too went through the same thing when I got my mate..

Arya ( excited ): So, he is going to find his mate soon..

Everyone bought it but there were 3 souls who were having mixed thoughts. They were Sahas, Abhi and Cabir..The college got over..Throughout the college time, Manik was stalking Nandini without her knowledge..

At night

In Fiore

It was dinner time and all the members of Fiore family were having dinner..Family means, even the protectors of Fiore..like Chief of War and his family, Chief guard and his family were also present..

Among the Carlisle siblings, Nandini, Rishi and Manpreet share a friendship bonding. While Rajat and Nandini shares a different relationship..He is a soft one so he always needs Nandini by his side to do something..While Jai and Rithwik pamper her like she is their daughter..Jai scolds her for playing pranks or if she doesn't take care of herself and Rithwik scolds Jai for scolding her..Jai is like a father for all 5 of them, Rithwik is a 2 a.m friend and funny too..Rajat is the mentor and Rishi is the best company one could ask for while Manpreet is the best listener, he listens to whatever you says and he will support you in every decision you take..

Gautam: Princess, you shouldn't have done it..

She stopped eating and looked at Gautam. She knew about what he is talking..

Nandini ( sighed ): Dad, I am sorry but he provoked me..And Strauss was restless since many days..

Nandita ( confused ): Restless..?

Nandini ( nodded ): Yeah, actually she is going out of control..

Gautam ( surprised ): But why..? It never happens right..

Nandini ( nodded ): yeah..But I don't know why..Its happening since a week..Sometimes I had to break some or the other thing to control her..

Vayhesh ( thoughtfully ): Maybe, its a mate pull..

Carlisle were shocked..Nandini's jaw was dropped down widely..

Nandini ( shocked ): What..?

Vayhesh ( nodded ): Yes, it happens when there is a mate pull..Especially you are half demon baby, so you will have more frustration..

Nandini ( emotionless ): I don't want a mate..

Jai ( sighed ): Cupcake, everyone needs a mate..

Nandini ( adamant ): I am sorry Jai, but I don't need a mate..Mom, I am done..

She got up and went back to her room..

Nandita ( tensed ): What will happen when she finds her mate once, Gautam..

Gautam ( sighed ): I don't know Nandita..All I know is she is my baby and if her happiness is in not having a mate then I am ready to push her mate away from her..

They all just stared at Gautam in tension..Nandini doesn't want a mate and Gautam is ready to be with her which means whoever is going to be her mate will have to suffer, badly..

The Carlisle left to sleep..

Next morning..

As usual Weasleys were sitting around the tree. But they saw something unusual today. They found each and every boy of the college standing around the college gate..

Manik ( confused ): What happened to these boys..?

Cabir ( nodded ): That's what even I don't know..is any celebrity coming here today..?

Abhi ( glared ): Cabir....We aren't in any human world to have celebrities nearby..

Dhruv: Shut up guys..We don't need to see anymore fights..

Suddenly they saw Carlisle's cars entering through the college gates..The Weasleys noticed the college boys setting their jackets and hairs..

Aryamann ( rubbed his chin ): Guys are getting themselves ready, which means they are trying to impress some girl..

Maddy ( raised his eyebrow ): Who is that girl for the whole college is getting ready..?

The next moment Nandini got out of her car making everyone stunned, some even fainted..

Cabir ( made an O shape mouth ): Whoa..so now I got it, who is the 'celebrity' of our college..

Abhi ( laughing ): Dude, look at that guy..he has even fainted..

The thing that Weasley brothers haven't noticed is there was one person who was fuming in anger..It was Manik Willfred Weasley who has made his hands into fists which was finally noticed by Maddy..he held Manik's hand since Bloodman was trying to take control..Manik looked at Maddy..

Maddy ( pleaded ): Manik, try to control..

Manik nodded in yes..Meanwhile Nandini has entered the college..

In the evening..

Nandini was going through her book while walking..Manik and his brothers were coming from the opposite side. They didn't see each other..Unknowingly, Manik dashed into Nandini..

Nandini ( freaked out ): What the...

She was about to fall but Manik who heard her voice got alert and caught her waist at the right moment before she could fall.She has closed her eyes due to fear of falling but then felt herself in someone's arms which did sent shivers through her body..She opened her eyes only to get drown in those grey eyes which were staring back at her with some emotions that she can't even read..they were staring to each other's eyes..he felt he could look into her eyes forever, without a blink..The next moment the pendants that they were wearing which was before only a heart shape formed into the real shape and got locked with each other making them shock. The brothers too got shocked..A pendant will be with a Demon or Angel since they were born but it will be of heart shape, once they get touched by their mate for the first time, it will transform into the exact shape and will get locked with your mate's pendant..and together they form the correct shape of the pendants..their eyes were about to change as the inner souls were about to take the control but before that could happen Nandini backed off and got out of his grip which made the chains to get back to their places but still the shape didn't change back to heart shape as it showed that the particular person is ' taken '..They stared at each other but then she ran away form there..While Manik stood there in shock..

( Pendant - left one is Manik's and right one is Nandini's , its written in google for friends but in my story its for Demon and Angel..)

Cabir ( whispered ): Nandini is..

Abhi ( shocked ): Manik's mate..

Maddy ( whispered ): Which means she is our..

Arya ( shocked ): Sister-in-law..

Dhruv ( whispered ): I have never thought that one of our mate's will be an Angel..

Manik rushed from there in anger, Arya was about to go back of him but Cabir stopped him..

Cabir: No Arya, he needs to let his frustration out..Issue is not so simple..

Manik went to the jungle and screamed in anger..he plucked the trees out and growled like a beast..

While on the other side Nandini went back to her home and locked herself up in her bedroom and leaned on the wall..

Nandini ( whispered ): I was right..He was my mate..Manik Willfred Weasley is my mate..

( She sat on the floor with a thud..)

Nandini ( sighed ): I should have stayed away from him..If I did then I wouldn't have got to know that he was my mate..Ach patéra ( oh father ) I don't want a mate..And you know that..Now, I just got to know that my mate is the most powerful Demon..how will i get rejection..

She touched the tattoo on her body..It was a big one which started from her right part of neck and ended till her upper part of right bre***..

Nandini ( whispered ): I have always hidden it from my family, cause I always knew this meant I belong to a Demon..

True, she has hidden it, since it was a small tattoo when she was a baby, they couldn't understand the meaning but while growing up Nandini noticed it, also after seeing how much they hate Demons, she decided to hide it from them..

She started shedding silent tears..She never wanted a mate..why..?

In Tartaros

Manik came back to his Mansion. He went to his room and started playing his guitar..But all he could see was Nandini..her eyes, her tiny nose, her lips, her smile and the innocence that she carries with her..everything was something he adored..

Manik ( helplessly ): Never had I ever been attracted to a girl in my life and I was never in a relationship. But this girl wasn't leaving my mind the moment she has stepped into my life and now she became my mate..What am I supposed to do..? I should..Maybe I should..reject her..yes..every girls are same..Even she..she is same..

He too decided to reject her..he never wanted a mate..His reason wasn't valid..he believed girls are the same, who wants attention and fame as he has sen only such girls except his brothers' mate..So he believed girls are bad..

In the living room

Nyonika ( shocked ): Is it really true..?

Abhi ( annoyed ): Mom, you've been asking the same question for the past 1 hour..

Nyonika ( glared ): What should I do then..? I am hearing my son's mate is an Angel..how am I supposed to react..Should I dance..?

Raj ( angry ): This shouldn't have happened..We are Demons and Manik is the crown Chief..So his mate is the future Chief Queen then how can an Angel become the queen of TARTAROS..

Sahas was quiet for the whole time..he was having mixed feelings over Nandini..he could see some specialty in her..And now she being Manik's mate increased his doubts..

Nyonika ( softly ): Raj, according to me..she is a very sweet girl..

Raj ( sternly ): It doesn't matter Nyonika..What matters is she should have been a Demon to be eligible of being Tartaros's Queen..

Weasleys believed Nandini to be an Angel so they couldn't just accept her to be Manik's mate..if the world of Demons come to know about it, then they can even create a war..

In Fiore

Carlisle were sitting with blank faces..They didn't know how to react..

Vayhesh ( calmly ): Why are you guys silent..? Isn't it something we expected..? We knew her mate could be an Angel or a Demon..

Gautam ( little furious ): Yes Dad, but this..this was unexpected..Its Manik who became my daughter's mate..he is the crown prince of Tartaros..Demons..Manik is the most strongest Demon, the people whom we hate..

Vayhesh ( sighed ): Gautam, we should at least be happy that she would be safe in his hands..

Gautam ( angry ): Safe..? Are you serious Dad..? Do you even know what you are saying..?We don't go well with Demons..And our daughter being one of the Weasley youngsters' mate isn't acceptable..

Vayhesh ( stared at him ): Do we have that right Gautam..?

Others stared at him..Gautam couldn't look in his father's eyes..it was true..Carlisle are dearest to Nandini but she was nowhere related to them..In fact she was the daughter of their God and Goddess, she is the little Goddess..She was their responsibility..they were just asked to take care of her, that doesn't mean they can interfere in her personal life..that's what the Carlisle believed but now, after loving Nandini to this extent, they couldn't just accept that she doesn't belong to them..

Nandita ( in tears+ shouted ): What does it mean Dad..We raised her..We are her parents..Yes, we couldn't give birth to her..But it doesn't mean she isn't our daughter..if you can't agree to it then fine, but for me she is my daughter..Maybe our Goddess gave birth to her but nobody can say that I don't love her..I loved her like she is my own daughter..

Vayhesh ( softly ): I know child..but remember..Its Him who is deciding the mates..You became Gautam's mate because he decided it..similarly, its His decision..He might have thought something..

Carlisle just nodded at him..While Manik and Nandini decided for rejection..Will he be able to reject her even if she managed to ask for it, or will he reject her before she could ask..!!

To be continued..
