times are hard, brother. and it's all your fault, isn't it? / hale fire aftermath. laura & derek

ahn~ purposefully awful grammar. slowly updating my acct but i've moved over permanently to AO3

"YOU HAD ONE JOB TO DO, DEREK," she snarls, canines elongating and eyes bleeding red—it's the mark of the alpha laura shouldn't be the alpha the only reason she would be an alpha is if—is if—

"You had one job to do and you couldn't even—" she lets out a howl that's more like a sob as she falls to the ground and screams and she screams and she screams because she's only eighteen and she's the alpha of a pack of two

and derek can't even look her in the eye, can only kneel down before her and offer his neck

saying without saying, you know what to do, laura. if you wanted to, if you wanted to…
