The warmth of the sun rays on this mountainous scape, made Emma wish fervently that she had dropped off her brown coat in the house; as she felt the pool of sweat that had formed between the layers of her breasts. Her thin white polo was also slightly soaked, and they haven't gotten to the restaurant yet.
She mused tiredly at the thought, and prayed silently, earnestly in her heart that they should get to the restaurant quickly. Her stomach was already making grumpling sounds.
Trudging down the grassy path with Melvina, Emma wondered at her agility, while neglecting the stares she was getting from the people that stood at the West end of the road, purchasing clothes.
"I didn’t know that the restaurant is this far.." She said rubbing her hands together, stopping f
The cloying smell of freshly baked cookies, hamburger and fries engulfed Emma as a hug, assailing her nostrils in a pleasant way as Melvina and she, stepped into the eatery. Her stomach grumbled in approval, as she breathed in the wholesome smell in relish. She couldn't wait to eat. "Let's go." Melvina said, holding her hand, and whisking her to the one of the tables. "Here, sit" She said, as they got to the first table closer to the window. Emma sat down excitedly, while rubbing her hands together. The cafeteria seemed to be cold, an odd opposition of the weather outside. " What will you have?." Melvina asked her, smiling.
Claire cussed as she heard Melvina's voice. Throwing her hands behind her back, she bent her heads in a bid to look sorry, while thinking inwardly of a hundred ways to deal ruthlessly with the human. "Claire, didn't you hear my question?. What happened??" Melvina asked, getting pissed off at the beta's daughter already. "Lu.." Claire tried saying, but Melvina cut her off through the pack link. "Ma, would be preferable" Melvina had said, through the link. "Oh.." Claire's mouth opened, then closed, after she tried assessing the situation. Emma noticed the motions made by the eyes of the two females, One in a commanding way, the other subdued; but sh
CHAPTER 12 A sense of accomplishment enveloped Derek, as he stared around the big white-painted bedroom in content. The bedroom now looked heavenly with its interior all cleaned up, changed and furnished; a sharp contrast to its former muddled state. ‘The little witch is lucky.’ He thought, running his hands over the dark blue silky bed sheets, which accentuated the beauty of the king sized bed, one of the many things that Mr Jason, had made available to them for the furnishing of the house. Turning aside for a moment from the beautiful sight in front of him, and facing the window, Derrick pondered again on who the little witch was, and who Mr Jason is really. It was obvious to him that they were both humans, rich too, but he couldn’t understand how they still got a place in Moonway street, that’s apart from the weird fact that a father could send his daughter to this part of the continent alone. No matter how he tried to think of a reason
Derek just shrugged his shoulders at Shane’s question, while biting off his nails in deep thought. ‘Where could the little witch be?’ He thought interminably, not taking note of the abrasive looks on the faces of his two companions in the sitting room. ‘’Derek!!’’ Shane shouted, getting pissed off already at the shade of aloofness he was seeing on his alpha’s face. He had noticed earlier, the tension between Derek and Clem since the human girl came around, but then he couldn’t understand, couldn’t pinpoint exactly, why the arrival of ‘she’ had to cause a rift between his two closest friends. Although he was definitely happy that Derek had been thoroughly affected by a girl for the first time, he didn’t want it to be a cause of dispute between Clem and him. The pack didn’t need an alpha that is at loggerheads with his beta. They had to sort out their issues, whatever it is, now. ‘’Yeah, what is it?’’ Derek asked, still biting his nails inte
Under the shocked gazes of the three boys, Emma squirmed a bit. ‘Did she say anything wrong?’, she thought. She had just mentioned Melvina only. A tiny thought at the back of her head nagged her a bit. It seems Melvina wasn’t just a common somebody; her instincts had been right. Ever since she had discussed with her on the chair across the woods till when they got to the eatery, she knew there was something more to her. But till this moment, even for the life of her, Emma just couldn’t seem to place her finger on it, on who she actually felt Melvina was. She guessed she would have to wait on the boys to perhaps slip up the answer. “What did you just say?” She heard a voice which she could tell was Clem’s, ask. Tearing her gaze from Derek which her traitor eyes had settled on for a minute, she looked sideways to see Clem staring at her; his eyes widened in surprise. ‘’Did you just say Melvina?” He asked, in a lowered
Derek cursed inwardly at the mention of Claire’s name. This is what he had been scared of; the pack’s reaction to Emma being his mate, worse Claire. He knew how dangerous and possessive she could be, even though they weren’t mates. She doesn’t even know who Emma is and she already saw her as an enemy. What will she now do when she knows, or when he informs the pack about it. “Maru, I have no choice..I have to reject her.” Derek thought to his wolf, ignoring the sharp pain that ran across his heart. He really had to. He didn’t want his little witch to be bullied or to suffer prejudice. He had to protect her. But Maru was silent. Derek shrugged his shoulders at that. Perhaps he was sleeping, and would awake after he turned 18. “Sometimes I wonder how a dim witted fellow like you wants to lead a pack. Won’t you ask her how she met your mother, or how your mother was comfortable enough to even show her where to get her food?” Maru sai
The pack meeting had already gone more than a half-way when Derek and his companions stepped into the large hall, the biggest hall in their pack house, where important meetings were held; meetings which included the entire members of the pack. The confidential meetings between the Alpha and his subordinates were held in a smaller room at the western wing of the house. The pack house was a gigantic mansion actually with several outlets, which comprises of the Alpha’s residence, meeting grounds and a hospital. It had been built by Derek’s father after they had escaped from the wicked terror innated by the fallen vampires; which had plagued their pack, and the other packs-for centuries they say. Nobody had heard a word about them(the fallen vampires) since they(Black moon pack) relocated to this part of the savannah; perhaps they were gone finally, nobody knew. But for now, the main issue of the black moon pack was defeating the white-st
Melvina stared keenly at the duo in front of her, as they cast furtive glances to each other and scoffed inwardly; they were hiding something. She was very sure that something did happen at the human’s place. I guess I have to ask my son then, she thought, determined to get the truth. Looking away from them to the insides of the hall, she found out that the pack meeting was over. The pack members were trooping out of the hall to their respective homes. Then she heard her husband through their mind link; the mind link that was created when he had marked her during their mating ceremony. They could also feel each other’s pains and thoughts. “Have you seen your son?” Melvina heard Peter ask through the link. The sentence got her sighing wearingly. She knew that tone, she knew the sentence. He uses it whenever he was annoyed with Derek. At that moment, Derek becomes only her son. “Yeah, I’m with him.” She rep
