Derek POV

I felt stupid. All Stiles wanted was his friends back, his pack. Yet, I still made it seem as if every last thing was his fault. I yelled for him before he left the loft but he kept walking.

I had headed into town when I had stoppef to get an iced tea at the cafe on the corner. There is when I had seen him.

He was sitting with a guy with blue hair. Stiles poured his coffee, or whatever it was over the poor guy's head. Then on they sat in silence. I gad gotten my iced tea & took a seat with them. "Hey Stiles." His eyes snapped to mine. He quickly manuvered himself out of the corner of the booth.

I moved my gaze to the blue haired boy laughing. He looked a lot like Stiles. Almost like they could be twins. "Take me home, Zac. Please..." Stiles muttered out ignoring my pleading looks.  "Sure. Meet you at the car." Zac said as Stiles briskly made his way outside. "Stay away, alright ? Hasn't your dumbass family caused enough ?"  I didn't understand. The tone in his voice was most definitely anger & resent filled. "What are you talking about ?"

He smirked before standing up. "See you around, Hale." I then decided that I should see Isaac. Maybe he wasn't being delusional when he said he had seen someone like Stiles with blonde hair. Zac had blue hair... So is there another one ?

I pushed the thoughts to the back of my mind getting into my cat. Soon enough I arrived at Isaac's.

"Come on, we'll talk in the kitchen. Lydia & the kids should rest..." I just simply nodded as I followed him. I sat in a chair at the table as I explained everything from these last few days. "Give him his space. Haven't we hurt him enough ?" Isaac said causing me to rise out of my chair. "You can't be serious !" I whisper yelled cautious of Lydia & the kids in the next room. "I am Derek. Clearly he wants nothing to do with us. At least not now..." I stepped back a couple of steps. "He hurt us as well....Doesn't that matter ? Not everything revolves around Stiles..."

Isaac then shoved me into the wall giving out a growl. "Allison is dead. I understand that, but someday you're going to have to let that go. He was possessed."  I was about to shove him back when Lydia appeared at the door way. "You can't tell him how to feel, Isaac. Besides possessed or not she's still dead. So letting that go isn't as easy as you think it is."

Isaac looked from me to Lydia & backed away from me. "I'll be back in a few hours." He made his way to the door. Lydia yelled, "you can't just leave me & the kids here !" Isaac growled once more.

"Watch me." His eyes finally landing on me before he shut the door loudly. Argent strted crying and Lydia went to pick her up. "Shhh...it's alright. Momma's here." She cooed until she fell back to sleep. "I'm sorry Lydia." She turned to me & we made our way back to the kitchen. She grabbed two glasses & opened a bottle of wine. "You have nothing to apologize for, Derek."

We talked for who knows how long. That is when she told me about Kira & Scott. "When did they set the date ?" I asked curiously. Lydia laughed. "They are looking at houses & stuff for now. I think they'll elope." I told her about what happened with Stiles today. She had this distant look in her eyes. All I could see was terror. "What did they do to you in Eichen ?" Lydia ignored the question & smiled as she couldn't get the words out.

Scott POV

I looked at Gray noticing how angry he's been. "What's bothering you ?" Gray shivef past me into my living room. "You're getting married ! To her !?" He said as I finally took in what he meant. "It is complicated Gray. I'm sorry if you're feeling like there's no room for you." Gray scoffed rolling his eyes just like Lydia would. "You think this is about me being lonely or some shit like that ?-"

"Watch. Your. Language."  I demanded only getting a pitiful laugh. "I see why Stiles wants nothing to do with any of us...you 'ADULTS' seem to fuck up everything lately." I then let him continue. If he hadn't he wouldn't feel as if he could trust me, I guess.

"Is there anything else you what to express ?" Gray nodded as he stared at the rings on the table. "Don't marry her. Don't marry Kira." I then had heard enough. "I love you & you're my son. Of course I want you to be happy, but I deserve happiness too, don't you think ?" Gray scoffed before flicking tbe rings off the table. "What I want if for you to see that I'm not a child anymore ! What I want is for you not to marry that raging whore ! What I want is for you to realize what you're losing before we all lose !"

My son walked out slamming the door. I covered my ears. It is the 16th time he's done that these last two weeks. What am I doing wrong ?

I then proceeded to go look at houses while Kira was at her parents. Hopefully everything stays good for the time being. I was in my when I was headed out. I got in my car.

I pulled out of the driveway & proceeded to go to my destination in peace. All was great. Until I had seen a tree in the road. I got out to inspect it.

Claw marks all along the tree. They were too prominent to be made by a beta. An Alpha could be the only one to make these kind of marks. At least that's what I think...

I snapped some picture of the tree when I had heard a car moving at a fast pace. I turned around only to see a pair of tires before I blacked out....
