Mae's POV

I saw Derek moving closer to us, he's so beautiful, I'm looking for another adjective to qualify his handsomeness. He's everything I want in a man, his bullheadedness aside though. His strides are strong and powerful, he walks with authority maybe that comes with being a prince or so. He wasn't looking too happy though, what might be wrong. He was at the door now, his eyes searched for us before settling on where we are.

He walked towards us and dragged my stool to face him before engulfing me in a hug. Electricity and spark licked through all my body, I started shivering despite the warmness of the kitchen.

What he does to me!

Wooh! That came as a surprise but I want nothing more than to ease his frown, I want nothing more than to run my hands on his hard and smooth abs. I want to kiss him so badly I'm creaming.

He sniffed my scent to calm him down.

"What's wrong?" I asked him. Tracy stood to give us some privacy but I shook my head in disapproval. We aren't through with our discussions. But she just smiled and moved to sit at the other side of the kitchen.

"You're driving us insane" he starting mumbling some words under his breath on my neck that I couldn't catch up on.

That's not the answer to the question I asked but I still loved it nonetheless to know I made him feel that way.

I blushed.

"Will you stop that" I chided playfully when I also want to get close to him. He's affecting me just the same way I do to him, he smiled, at last, he smiled easing the frown on his face. He  took the stool Tra vacated.
"So will you now tell me why you were frowning" he just shrugged

"Nothing for you to worry your pretty head about, it was just a slight disagreement we had in court today"

"Court?"  I asked, surprised to know there is a court around here

"Yes, Court, I will take you there to see how it works for yourself" 

Before I could answer Tracy stood and shouted from the other side.

"No!... I. I. mean not yet, you can't throw her to the vultures not when she still has lots to learn, they will just pounce on her the moment they set eyes on her, not forgetting they will feast on her flesh, being her mate doesn't help a bit not with the enemies you have swimming beside you"

What's she taking about? I knew she was making a comparison of people to Vultures. But why would they pounce on me? And how did she put it 'feast on my flesh'. Beside she was on the other side of the room so how could she have heard what Derek said. Before I could question him, he answered as if he knew what I was thinking about. "Vampire's hearing" before turning to her.

"Stay out of this pale face, I will be the judge of what would be good for her. She is my mate not yours"

Pale face??? That's too brutal, pale face comes with vampirism? Maybe yes, because Jakes is also pale coupled with  some other people I saw in the parlour earlier. I will ask Derek later to confirm my assumptions.

"Shut up, she's also my friend"

This seems to raise a snarl from Derek's, baring his teeth at her. He glared at Tracy daring her to say another word. She just sat back down. What's his problem, she was just being protective, that's all.
