Where Medusa and Kayden had already witnessed the power play and encountered an elven man, things were going normal either on an side of the world. Everyone was having their own share of trouble and things to tackle. Everything was going round and round in a twisted way which did not seem to appear an unplanned sequence.
When Coulter finally suspected Kayden all the proofs which could go against him did not seem to make sense suddenly. And when he thought that perhaps he could grasp Kayden making him surrender for interrogation, his own daughter marked him as her mate.

After all why else would she pick someone from class C as her mate. Do you think that she was still under his charm spell that the vampiress was unable to see that she was being used.
