💰 Muted 💰


"That table's Italian." Peter said as Braeden put her feet up on the coffee table, "So are these boots." Braeden said making Aurora quietly chuckle from where she was sitting on the arm of the couch next Derek. "Are we going to talk interior design and fashion, or are we going to talk numbers?" Braeden asked.

Aurora looked at Derek to see him looking at his reflection in a pair of sun glasses, obviously worriedly about the fact that his eyes are back to being yellow. Aurora wrapped her arm around his shoulders making him look at her as she smiled softly at him and kissed the top of his head as he grabbed her knee.

Peter wrote something on a piece of paper and slid it over to Braeden who then crossed out what he wrote and wrote something else. Peter grabbed it and looked down at it, "We're hiring you to find Kate, not assassinate the president."

"I was hired by the Calaveras to find Kate. You're hiring me to find her first. Going against the Calaveras is what's going to cost you." Breaden said and Peter sighed and wrote another number down and slid it over to her but she just slid the paper back making him dramatically walk away as Aurora laughed. "We'll pay. Just find Kate. That's all we want." Derek said impatiently while ripping up the paper.

Once Braeden left Peter turned to Derek looking at him crazy, "Are you insane?" He asked and Aurora raised her eyebrows, "You're one to talk." She said earning a glare from Peter. "We don't have a choice. We spent a week looking for her, and came up with nothing." Derek said standing at the table by the windows as Peter walked over to him.

"What do you think I'm gonna do then, huh? Get a job? My resume is slightly out of date! We got robbed, Derek. Robbed!" Peter said grabbing Derek's shoulder making Derek spin around and grab Peter's wrist, flashing his yellow eyes and canines.

"Oh, that's a new look for you." Peter said and Derek let him go. "What happened to your eyes?" Peter asked and Derek sighed, "I don't know. But I'm willing to pay to find out."
