Chapter 82: EAVESDROPPING

Although Maya had known that Clem's thoughts on her were not good per say, she still hadn't expected his outbursts and hostility. Well, she had caused it though; she had followed her father like a sheep and it had cost her a lot of things. She wasn't that sheep anymore; late but still necessary.

She still hoped to reconcile with her close friend, as she trudged along the hall area, heading towards the exit.

She stopped in her movements, as she heard an argument between two parties; it was hushed but she could still hear it tiny bits of it. She was a wolf after all.

She walked towards the sound of the argument, and it led her directly to a closed door, at the side of the hall. She hadn't noticed it when she had come. Perhaps her mind had been filled with a lot of thoughts, especially, thoughts on Leo.

There was a silence, and Maya prepared herself to sprint away, if the door's knob turned suddenly. But then the voices started again, and she could swear that one of them, a more confused one, was her cousin's. He was with a girl.

Again! She screamed inside her head, wondering what was up with her cousin and ladies tonight.

She wondered who the lady was. She was sure that the other two humans were in critical conditions in the hospital.

So who was this? She thought, stepping closer to the door.

She was sure going to break Derek head, if this hidden meeting turned out into an unpleasant sight, like the one she had witnessed earlier with Emma.

She had really felt for the human girl. Seeing your boyfriend sprawled in an intimate position with another girl. She wondered what would have happened if Emma was a wolf like them. A smile appeared on her face as the imaginative scenarios played across her mind. She was sure about one thing; the human that had played her cousin might not be living. Damn the consequences.

The little she had known of the redhead, the human was dangerous and stubborn; she just required the right trigger and outlet.

"If you don't, I will let your father know."

The girly voice had said, and Maya gasped.

She thought she knew who was talking.

Clem's twin. Claire!.

"That she-goat!" Maya cursed in her forehead.

"What is she trying to do know?" She asked herself, pruning her ears to hear more of the conversation.

"You're mistaken. Emma is just a fling." She heard her cousin say, and soughed. What were they talking about?

Whatever it was, she knew it wasn't good. Claire was trouble. Everyone knew it.

What was she trying to tell Alpha Peter, Derek's father, now?

"Stop lying to me Derek. I heard you guys. I was there." She heard Claire shriek, and balked.

The she-devil had eavesdropped on their conversations earlier. She wondered how much more the troublemaker knew; hoping it was just that, and not her apology to Clem.

"It was just talks. I'm not 18 yet, so there's no…. " She heard her cousin saying, before he was interrupted halfway by Claire in a sardonically voice.

"Stop playing with me Derek. You're not making things easier for you." Maya heard her mention.

There was a deep silence.

Maya knew her cousin was caught in the middle and distraught.

He needed to see Emma, not this.

"Claire, what do you want?" She heard him ask, and soughed; already knowing what Claire has in mind.

"I want you to mark me as your mate on your birthday." She heard Claire say, and stilled herself from hissing.

The braggrat! She shouted in her mind.

"Unless, your dad hears about all of this. And you know, he might kill off Emma, wanting you to stay focused." The witch added, and Maya gritted her teeth, already feeling her cousin's helplessness at the matter.

"He wouldn't dare." She heard him growl out.

Of course that statement should have made him annoyed.

"Then promise to mark me. Protect Emma." She heard Claire say.

"What about your own mate? You would be having your birthday by next week." Derek asked.

" I will reject him."

The nerve! Maya thought, boiling with anger, already pitying for whomsoever would be the witch's mate.

"You can't reject your mate because of me, Claire." She heard Derek say.

" Watch me then. Are you in or not?" She heard Claire ask, and winced, as if in pain.

This was her cue to burst into their conversation. She couldn't let her cousin make a promise to the she-devil.

And so taking in a deep breath, she opened the door, before forcing a certain cheerity to her voice.

"Hey Derek. What are you doing here? We have been waiting for you outside." She said, with a faux smile on her face as she stepped into the room.

She stilled herself from laughing, when she saw the angry look on Claire's face. It was totally hilarious. She knew that the bitch would be plotting diverse ways already to deal with her. Buh she didn't care. She actually wished she could communicate her real thoughts to the blondie through the pack link. Buh she wasn't of their pack. She didn't know how her father had been able to do that; altering their mind link connection.

"Maya...sorry to have kept you guys waiting. Let's go." Derek said hastily, totally grateful to his cousin from saving him from Claire's deceptive web. How could he abadon his mate for Claire? Impossible! He had to find a way to tell his father, then convince him to let Emma stay. He would talk to his mother about it tonight. If he wanted to do this, he needed her.

"Aye." He heard her cousin said cheerily and smiled. He thought they were flowing seamlessly like they had been, years back before the war. And he liked it. His partner in crime was back.

Allowing her to hold his arms as they walked out of the room, leaving behind a fuming Claire, he almost laughed as she shouted out to the lone angry girl in the room:

"Your twin is waiting for you outside too.. Come on out, and stop playing hide and seek. You're too old for that, Young lady!"
