Chapter 125: WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?

Derek halted in his movement, when he saw his brother and his little witch sitting so close to each other. He tried to rein in the emotions of jealousy and anger trying to escape, but his wolf wasn't having any of it. What the hell had they been discussing that they sat this close? He thought that his cousin must have known his state at the moment, and what would be his state and the state of the kitchen in the next minute, because the next second, she had already taken the plates in his hand, walked up to the kitchen counter and had dropped it; before turning to face the couple who looked like thieves caught in a trap.

"So, this is where you guys are. We have been looking for you two." She said, before casting him a look that communicated that he should calm down.

Earlier on, after he had been done eating, he had walked to her room, actually wanting to see his little witch, than talk to her; but when he had gotten there, she had told him that Emma had gone off to the kitchen to drop her plates. But then, he had waited and waited, to no avail; there had been no sign of her or his brother who had also gone off to the kitchen like thirty minutes ago. 

And so, after a while, his cousin had opined that they go to the kitchen too, to drop their plates and look for the two, that perhaps his little witch and his brother could still be in the kitchen, finishing the food in the pot. He had laughed it off, knowing why she had made the statement; his big brother and his little witch had something in common, even before they had met. They were both food lovers.

On the way, he had brought up the incidence that had happened in her room, between her and his mate, before he had interrupted them. And she had told him, not leaving anything out. He had been scared, frightened by the knowledge that his mate had known that he had been lying to her. In his mind, he had been thinking of ways to apologise to her, while on the outside, arguing with his cousin over when he should let the cat out of the bag, when he had come upon this scenario. He didn't know what to think about it; didn't want to imagine what could be going on to.

"We…uhmm." He heard his little witch stutter, and closed his eyes in anger. Why was she stuttering now? He thought. His little witch rarely stuttered. He also knew that Maru wasn't finding the scenario funny. He walked closer to them, tightening his fists few seconds later, as he saw that they were even holding hands.

'What the hell happened here?' He thought, staring at his cousin, who seemed to have seen what he was seeing. He could see her closing her eyes and rubbing her forehead tiredly.

He cut his eyes sharply to the couple in front of him still holding hands.

"The audacity…" He muttered, or so he thought; because before a twinkling of an eye, the couple had separated from themselves, looking everywhere but at themselves and the intruders.

"What is happening here?" He asked, finally giving voice to his thoughts, as he folded his arms across his chest. He feared that if he left them by his side, they might end up swinging at his big brother, and he didn't want that; even though he wanted to. No one was allowed to touch his little mate, except him. 

"Well you haven't told him that she is our mate." His wolf, Maru, opined.

"He wouldn't have done that if he had known." It continued.

"You are at fault. The longer you keep hiding it, the more chances that people will want her. I don't want that." It concluded.

"I don't want that either." He linked back, understanding the statements of his wolf.

"So, when are you telling about us, about me." Maru asked.

"Soon." He replied, ignoring his wolf's whinings. He knew that it wasn't satisfied with his answer. But that was all he had to offer at the moment. He had to listen in on his mate's speech. She was talking now.

"Derek… we were just… uhmmm." Emma stammered, feeling slightly embarrassed. How could she tell her boyfriend that she had been stealing food from his mother's pot. Anthony's case was different. She thought. The dude was part of the family.

"We were just eating and talking." Anthony replied, turning a bit to look at Derek. He already knew that his Alpha's son was angry, very angry. Does he like the human that much? He asked his inner self.

"I knew it!  Hahaha…I knew it!! " Maya shrieked, laughing at the same time. "I told you so." She said, pointing at Derek as she spoke, before turning away to open the pot.

"Oh my goodness me…oh my world…" She muttered slowly, as if in awe, as she opened the big pot on the electric stove, noting the almost emptiness of the utensil.

"I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I was just…. You know… We were just…" Emma was saying, literally blabbing, when Maya cut her off, still laughing.

"Breathe Emma. It's okayyy." Maya said, still chuckling. 

"Really??? Melvina won't do nothing?" Emma asked, her hands already unfolded. from her chest, and clasped as if in prayer.

"No, she wouldn't." Maya replied, causing Emma to release a breath she had been holding since.

"That's a relief." She said, before taking up her plate, and indicating to Maya that she should scoop the remains of the food in the pot into her plate.

"What the hell!" Anthony burst out in laughter. "You just told me some minutes ago that you were full." He stated, still laughing, amused by the foodie nature of the human.

But Emma just shrugged, noticing the lukewarmness of her boyfriend. He just stood there, staring at her like she had just committed murder, oblivious of what others were saying or doing, not a bit moved by the fact that she had just emptied his mother's pot.. It was like he was trying to transfer his emotions to her, to make her see and know that he wasn't happy with her.
