Chapter 13 Where Is Emma? Ii
- Derek just shrugged his shoulders at Shane’s question, while biting off his nails in deep thought. ‘Where could the little witch be?’ He thought interminably, not taking note of the abrasive looks on the faces of his two companions in the sitting room.
- ‘’Derek!!’’ Shane shouted, getting pissed off already at the shade of aloofness he was seeing on his alpha’s face. He had noticed earlier, the tension between Derek and Clem since the human girl came around, but then he couldn’t understand, couldn’t pinpoint exactly, why the arrival of ‘she’ had to cause a rift between his two closest friends. Although he was definitely happy that Derek had been thoroughly affected by a girl for the first time, he didn’t want it to be a cause of dispute between Clem and him. The pack didn’t need an alpha that is at loggerheads with his beta. They had to sort out their issues, whatever it is, now.
- ‘’Yeah, what is it?’’ Derek asked, still biting his nails intermittently. Taking a quick glance at Shane, he couldn’t understand why his gamma was getting all worked up. His main priority was finding his little witch. He knew he wouldn’t be able to rest properly or talk well at the pack meeting, without having found out whether she was safe or not. The little witch really had him hooked.
