Chloe's pov.
Eventually Roken showed up in the middle of dinner, everybody knew where he was. Off stalking someone through their dreams, Spying, and clawing for information. When we come to a new lace Roken spends a week looking through people's dreams to see if we were safe. Sometimes he reminded me of Derek always on edge and constantly worrying. Also very protective of the ones he likes.
"So what ya doing chicka" Roken's southern drawl, broke me from my game, and of course when my attention was off the game Janelle quickly won. Putting down the controller I faced him.
"What's it look like" I pointed to the screen "Anything in people's dreams?"
"Nobody but one, Tall, dark, and brooding keeps having dreams about you" He smiled at me.
"You're kidding me" He shook his head and I snorted out a laugh. Truthfully I thought it was kind of sweet. He joined in our gaming for a few hours before going back upstairs to meditate to resume snooping. Sometimes these guys are like family.
Derek's pov.
Silently wondering where Chloe and her friends went I walked home with Simon and Tori. Walking in to the house I went to tell dad who we saw. When I walked in his office he and Lauren were sitting together so I was killing two birds with one stone. "You won't believe who I saw" I said sitting down.
"Who" Lauren look up at me and smiled.
"Chloe" Laurens face was a mix of shock and anger.
"Why was she there" She practically growled. Lauren never did tell us why she wanted Chloe gone.
"It's school Lauren. We would have seen her eventually" Dad said.
"So how is the little Brat doing" she sneered.
"She's stronger, and different. And why are you so pissed off?" I said trying to figure it out.
"Because of that" Lauren growled "She's too powerful, she would have killed us all."
"How can you say that? She's your niece!" I jumped up from my seat.
"Whatever" She said before strolling out of the room.
Growling slightly I went to my room but as I was passing hers I heard a small sniffle. "Oh Jennifer… I'm …. Sorry that I forgot …. My promise. I can't believe I forgot. I said I would protect her and I did just the opposite. I'm so, so sorry"
I kind of felt sorry for her.
Derek; (Huff)
Devilish; What?
Derek; I wouldn't forgive her
Devilish; Liar
Derek; no I wouldn't at all!
Devilish; Whatever you say.
Derek; You don't own DP.
Devilish; You better run bitch!
