Sheila's POV

　　Kian came here to see Daemon and trust me everything was going as planned not when I am involved. I have decided to keep my head and nose on the ground till that b*tch is wiped out of the picture.

　　After Kian left the pack, along the hallway I saw Daemon and Rhea that b*tch having a conversation. She has been assigned up to ten bodyguards and a personal servant! That is ridiculous... What is Daemon even doing? Is he not afraid of the reputation that he has built from scratch?

　　My heart tightened at the scene in front of me, there was something with the way he pecked her. I swallowed my anger and followed him immediately I saw him walking away.

　　For months now I haven't spoken or even spent a night just like we used to do before. Since she came into the picture I was insignificant to Daemon, I am sure that he doesn't know that I exist anymore. So I decided to have a word with him today at least to know if he could still recognize my presence. Not being able to keep up with his strides I watched him walk inside his office and I followed instantly. It wasn't hard for the guards to let me in since they still have this mindset that there was still something going on between Daemon and me.

　　Twisting the doorknob to enter inside but the next word that I heard had me frozen on my spot... they were actually three in there and I didn't need to be reminded who they were.

　　Everything they said was enough to drag me to madness, closing back the door, I slipped back my fakest smile and turned around.

　　The guards c***k their brows at me but I flashed them my innocent smile and walked away and instantly summoned Jerry in my room.

　　"Yes, you called," he bowed. I know that he didn't want to do this but not like he has any choice though.

　　"Find me information relating to the olden years," I said when furiously pacing around the room.

　　"Olden years," he repeated, sounding confused.

　　"Yes, about the old witches, their powers, and most especially more about the dark magic," I stopped to face him, he gulped nervously while looking at me suspiciously.

　　"Okay, miss,"

　　"Wait!" He stopped and turned around, "I need that information in the next five hours,"

　　"Next five hours but..."

　　"That's final, get to work," shutting him up, I pointed at the door. Looking at me he nodded and walked away.

　　Is not like he has any say his mother's life is at stake if he behaves anyhow.

　　What does Daemon mean by dark magic? Yes... when I was a kid we were told stories concerning that but I thought things like that only happens in the story and if it truly happens I thought it was in the olden days.

　　How come Kian was able to work with one? This is something else and he didn't even intend to let me know.

　　However, after what seemed like five hours or so, I heard a knock at the door. "Come in," I promptly said.

　　The door opened, and Jerry tugged his head out from the door. "You are here," he nodded and walked inside.

　　"Everything you need to know is inside this file,"

　　I pick up the file and start going through it, just like he said everything that I need to know is inside the small paper file in my hand.

　　From his discovery, dark magic has been used by old witches in the past centuries and it is said to be evil magic and brings along bad omen. So tell me why Kian is using one.

　　I gulped suspiciously as I followed to the next page, something was written there about a mark imprinted on the neck and just then Daemon's conversation with his friends flashes back to my mind. He couldn't mark her without her recognizing him as her true mate if not she will die... The discovery causes a smile to sneak back into my lips.

　　She has the mark of Kian on her neck and can't have that of Daemon, at least I need to relax a bit. Looking back at Jerry who had been standing there waiting for me to go through the report, I let out a sigh and waved for him to leave.

　　Hearing the sound of my room door shut, I let out a deep breath and relaxed on my couch before an idea popped into my head. Since Daemon and his crew have found out about the mark and dark magic, I'm quite sure that they couldn't rest until they get to the bottom of this.

　　But what deepened my confusion is not only knowing that Kian works hand in hand with a witch but the fact that information has been transmitted from Blackwood Pack to Thorn Pack without his knowledge... Hmmmm, Sam has a mate, and none of us know, a spy placed in the middle of the Blackwood Pack members.
