Chapter 86: ENROUTE TO A 'GOVERNESS' HOUSE

Emma took notice of the dark green forest, which looked alluring and smelt nice from afar and flanked the small town, and the stares. The stares especially.

It was more prominent now, than before. Was it because she was enroute to the governess house? She didn't think so.

When she had first mentioned it to Maya, her cute friend had refused at first, shaking her head negatively as if it had been a bad idea. Maya had only agreed because she threatened not to forgive her cousin, if she didn't show her the way and accompany her.

It was petty and lame, but it was worth it. She wanted to see Melvina. Since the day she came into her house to call out Derek, and teach her a special recipe, a recipe which she had planned to cook for Derek this weekend before the witchy blondie created a groove between them; she hadn't seen her since then. She wanted to talk to her about anything and everything. She didn't know why she needed to do this actually, but she just felt urged to do it; not caring whether she would see her boyfriend there. Well she cared a bit, she was actually curious to know how he was faring. The strings of the heart..she had cussed.

Maya had asked for the why of the visit, and she had told her that she wanted to thank her with a gift. And then her cute friend had nodded, before asking for more food.

"Where's your mind now?" 

She heard Maya asked and smiled. It seemed she had zoned out again.

"Sorry." She muttered. "Just thinking." She added.

"About him?" Maya asked.

" Maya!" She shouted, ignoring the stares she was getting from people around.

"What? Doesn't hurt to answer the question." Maya said, with a shrug of her shoulders.

"Well I'm not answering it." She stated, chinning up.

" Ohoo..that means I'm right." Maya mentioned, laughing.

" You are not." She said.

"I am." Maya returned, ready for a playful scuffle.

"You are not." She retorted.

"I am." Maya replied.

"Oh God.." Emma muttered, exasperated. "Give  up already." She said.

"Not in a lifetime." Maya stated, laughing; while wishing that her cousin wouldn't be around, wishing that he had gone for a run or  perhaps taking a rest at Shane's since he had been training on an empty stomach since morning, trying to burn out the pent up frustration. 

She had just remembered that he had lied earlier that Melvina wasn't his mother. She wondered if her aunt knew about this arrangement. She hoped so too. It would make this less complicated. For it were not so, then her cousin would have to add the lies to among the things he would have to apologise for. And she knew that her redhead friend won't make it easier for him too. After all, the human didn't know of the mate bond or the fact that her boyfriend is aching in hurt and pain at the moment.

"They should stop staring already."

She heard Emma mutter, and soughed. Now that's another issue. Shd could hear some of their mutterings, even from far.  Her mother had pinpointed that it was one of  her gifts.

"Who is she?"

"What is a human doing in our pack, laughing with the Alpha's neice?"

" They are moving towards the Alpha's quarter too."

" Oh, her hair is too red though, reminds me of someone from this pack."

" It's just nature. She is just a human."

"A human with Maya."

" What is the girl up to now?"

" Nothing, I think. They could be coursemates in college."

" Yeah, bit still. We have to be cautious. That girl has never up to any good."

" You think so?"

" I know so."

" Well, her family accepted her."

" Doesn't mean I should."

Maya cut off from hearing the conversation between the two people, farthest from her.

She could understand that the pack members were befuddled. It wasn't everyday that a human strolls into the pack laughing with a member of the Alpha's family.

"The artwork here is amazing."

She heard Emma say, and smiled. She had thought the same when she had returned after seven years. Her uncle had really done well without them, unlike her father who always sought ways to wreak havoc on his younger brother. She still didn't understand his contempt. They had been a big beautiful and happy family. What happened? She thought.

Sighing at a question she had asked herself more than a hundred times.

"Yeah,  it is." She finally replied, breaking off from the depressing thoughts.

"Maya.." Emma beckoned on her, drawing her closer; a gesture which made her smile. She wondered what the redhead wanted to ask this time around.

"Yeah yeah." She responded.

"Why are there no cars around?" Emma asked.

"Cars?" Maya asked, finding the question weird.

"Yeah, cars. There are no cars driving around, on the streets." Emma cited.

" Oh that? It's weekend. Did you forget about Derek's car already?" She asked, wiggling her eyebrows, wanting to pass the hidden message across.

"Oh God, Maya quit it." Emma replied, trying furtively to hide a smile.

"Didn't do nothing, girl." Maya replied, laughing, happy that the topic had been relegated. Of course there were really no use of cars here, except to travel very long distances.

"Aren't we there yet?" Emma asked, after some minutes of silence. She was tired, and hungry again. She wondered why she didn't take a second serving of her food like Maya did.

"Maya!" A voice called out joyfully, causing the duo too stop their banter and look up.

Little Eva was rushing up to them, taking the short stairs, two after another.

Emma watched as Maya's face brightened the more, as she stopped walking and waited patiently for the girl to run up to her. She also watched as the beautiful child defeated the barrier of the staircase, before hurrying up into the outstretched arms of her friend. She thought the little girl looked like Derek; she had his eyes and dark long hair. "Was she, his daughter?

" Oh God.." She muttered, annoyed at how far her mind could go in accessing situations.

But her mutter, reminded Maya who was already listening animatedly to Eva's chatter about a certain boy in her class, that she wasn't alone.

"Eva, I want you to meet my friend, Emma." She said, directing the little girl to look at her friend.

"She has long red hair!" The little girl screamed, and like that Emma fell in love.

"Yes, I do. Yours is black. I like it." She said, squatting a bit, to pat the little cutie on her hair.

" I like yours too." Eva said, a little bit shy of the attention.

"Be my friend too." She stated in a rush, always wanting to imitate her big cousin. Besides, she liked the new girl too; she looked friendly.

"Sure, I will." Emma answered with a smile, watching with rapt attention as the little girl smiled out a thank you before rushing back into a big beautifully crafted house."

" Who is she?" She asked Maya, as she stood up rightly.

"Melvina's daughter.." Maya replied.
