Chapter 116: SHOUT MY NAME, IF NECESSARY..

Maya stepped towards Emma who was now sitting cross legged on the bed. She had waited by the doorstep because she had felt guilty for the ill fortune that had befallen her new friend. After all, she had sworn to her cousin after their unpleasant experience at the forest, that would protect his mate. Even though that was actually his own work, she had made him understand that since the redhead wasn't a wolf like them, with no high chances of being accepted as the Luna of his pack, he would have to diversify a lot, meaning that he would not always be around her, to avoid suspicious questions and looks from his father and the other pack members. 

She was the one that could stay around the human without attracting unnecessary attention. She was the one that should be protecting her always. But she had failed in this one single task. She had failed to keep her new best friend from the claws of the jealous and freakish Claire. Her anger still burned hot against Clem's twin sister and their evil mother who seemed to be the blondie's coach, from the look of things. 

Before she had rushed into Clem's room with Derek, his mother, and Shane, she had been able to make out some words which had been flowing out in the room using her gift for hearing in depth conversations at a fast rate; a gift which only her mother knew of. She hadn't been able for some reason to let her father know about it. And she didn't regret it. She wondered what would have happened if he had known. It would have meant more riskier missions with much more intake of the panjyo potion. 

So with her hearing gift, she had been able to deduct the whole message, and why the scuffle had happened in the first place. Yes, she had known before getting into the room, that her best friend had been bullied to the point of death, that Clem had been trying to save the redhead from his family and at the same time, was trying to save his family from the impending wrath of his alpha friend. She had also known that Claire and her mother already knew, somehow, that the human was her cousin's mate. She had refused to dwell on the latter, but had rather focused on the actions of her cousin when he finally sees the condition of his mate which she was sure wouldn't be nice. And for that minute, she had been grateful that her aunt was with them. Not that she wouldn't have been happy if Derek had gone totally caveman and wolfish on them. No. She hadn't cared. She would have loved it actually. But then, they hadn't been alone. 

A lot of other pack members had come for the twin's party, some of her pack members in the warrior base had come too; she had seen Carlos and Jacob. Also, the twins had been meant to be shifting tonight in the forest, while some men would keep watch on the borders to prevent a rogue attack on the newly shifted werewolves. And if her cousin had gone macho on the evil duo, then, it would have been known that the redhead was his mate; and that would have been like jumping from frying pan to fire. So that was the only reason she had been happy that his mother was with them; the older woman would have known how to control him. But still, even as she had walked behind him, even as he had rushed into his beta's room, she had thought and plotted on ways to deal with the blondie later, her mother inclusive, for hurting her best friend.

"Hey Maya. Are you okay?" Emma who must have noticed that she looked as someone buried with her thoughts, asked her; her forest green eyes piquing up in curiosity, but still shorn with worry.

"Yeah." She replied, deciding to leave her thoughts someplace else, as she sat gently on the bed, the same spot where her cousin had been sitting down some seconds ago. He had stood up abruptly from the bed, perhaps he had gotten a message. She had thought then, before stepping into the room. That's why she had actually stepped into the room, the abruptness of the stand which had expressed that he must have gotten a message from a person in their pack. And he confirmed this a few seconds later.

"Emma, I have to go..Just remembered that I have a meeting with my father like now."  He said, his eyes brimming with care and love as he stared at his mate. And then, he turned to her sharply.

"Stay here with her, Maya. Come find me if anything happens."  He added, and she just nodded, getting his message clearly. He was asking her to protect his mate this time around, he was overlooking her failure to keeping her earlier promise, he was giving her another chance. He had also entailed for her to shout his name out, if necessary; if for any reason, they happen to be in danger. It generally made her wish that she could switch to his own pack so that she could communicate with him via the mind link. But she knew it would be impossible, since her father was alive. He wouldn't let that happen. She would just have to bear it for now. Soon. She thought. Soon. 

Soon, she would be able to put her father where he belongs.

She watched as Derek exited the room gallantly, and sighed.

"Is everything okay?" She heard Emma ask, and nodded. She thought she was nodding a lot recently. A thought that made her smile for no reason.

Emma must have noticed it. She thought, because in the next few seconds when she raised her eyes to look at the human whom she had come to love immensely, the human was looking at with a bewildered look, which she had found amusing.

"What's amusing you?" Emma asked her, folding her hands.

"Your face." She replied smiling, before turning serious again.

"What is it now.? Emma asked, noticing the change in her countenance.

"I'm sorry." She stated, her eyes expressing totally how sorry and guilty she felt for not being there to save her, to stop the bully.

"It's okay. They were too strong for me; would have been the same for you anyway, if you had come." Emma replied, with a shrug.

"Perhaps. But at least it wouldn't have gotten to this extent." She replied, as she stared at the red marks on the human's neck which were fading a little.

"Maybe. Maybe not." Emma replied, remembering the strength and vigour of the two females that had bullied her.

"They were really strong.." She said out loud finally, after a minute had passed, causing Maya to tighten her fists, as her thoughts whirled on how she would deal with the duo that had oppressed her friend.
