Drake's POV

I knew the ball was stupid, but I had to go along with Zoe's plan if the Trags were going to trust me.

I didn't listen to what the Councilman was saying, I knew it was a load of crap anyway. Then I saw Roman staring at that human girl Emery.

"Now I understand why you want to help the humans, you have the hots for one of them." I said almost teasingly.

"What? Emery's just a friend." He replied.

"Dude, I've known you all my life, I can see it. You might want to tell your friend that her boyfriend's parents are the leaders of the Redhawks." I told him seriously. He looked at me a moment then went after her. I looked around for Zoe and found Taylor instead.

I was shocked when I saw her. She definitely stood out in the crowd. She was wearing a floor length, bright red dress that fitted her perfectly.

She looked at me and smiled. I couldn't help but smile back. Something about her made my stomach do flip-flops.

She started walking towards me and suddenly I got nervous.

I wasn't expecting her to glare at me and walked past me to the server and started flirting with him.

I felt my heart clench. I wasn't sure exactly what to feel but I knew one thing, she looked absolutely beautiful.
