"You know you are making it obvious." He heard Derek say, and soughed, wondering what his friend was thinking of now.

"What?" He finally asked out aloud, when he was not able to take in the mischievous look on the latter's face any longer, or his pregnant silence too.
"You're blatantly staring at my cousin, for someone that claims to wait till he feels the mate pull." Derek muttered, with a smirk, when he saw that Leo wasn't even trying to deny it.
