I'm Baaack! (Already) Here's the first chapter of Coming Home to Darkness. Enjoy!
Isaac could tell the new girl was a werewolf by the look on her face when she saw him. She stopped in front of him and smiled.
"Hi, I'm Brooke" she introduced. She had similar brown curls to what Jaimee had but this girl had blue eyes unlike Jaimee's brown ones. He nodded at her, it had been three months since Jaimee died, but it still hurt.
"Isaac, Isaac Lahey" he told her. She seemed to light up upon hearing his name.
"We have a friend in common" she smiled then walked away. He looked after her confused. Who was the mutual friend? He shook it off and walked over to Scott.
Brooke looked over her shoulder as the blue eyed hottie walked over to his friend. She grabbed her phone and dialled a well-known number.
"Hello" the Alpha answered.
"I met him. He looks so sad" Brooke informed her Alpha.
"I'm going to meet Derek. It needs to happen now" the woman said to her beta. Brooke hung up and walked towards the cafeteria for lunch.
Derek opened the door to his apartment and smiled at the woman staring back at him. He had seen her a few times to discuss taking down Deucalion but she still seemed to brighten up his day every time.
"We need to take him out now. I need to see him again, I can't do this without him" the younger Alpha told him. He nodded, he knew who she meant. She nodded.
"Tonight at 10" Derek told her then she turned and left without another word.
Brooke was pacing in front of her Alpha.
"This isn't healthy for you or the baby" she grumbled. Her Alpha had explained the plan a million times and she still wasn't comfortable with it. It was 9:42 and they had walked to the abandoned bank vault to wait while the others got there. Brooke and her Alpha were the surprise attackers. Fifteen minutes later Brooke and her Alpha heard a yelp. They ran from the vault and Brooke stood behind her Alpha. Everyone in the room turned to them in shock.
"Jaimee" she heard people gasp.
"Ready?" the familiar brunette asked Derek. He nodded and she growled, extending her claws and allowing her eyes to flash purple. She ran at her father and tackled the unsuspecting man to the ground. His arms flew out trying to defend himself but she had enough room to claw his face and ribs. Kali growled at her, ready to strike but Jaimee turned and growled at her, warning her to stay back. Derek and Jaimee's packs watched on in amazement as she jumped over Deucalion and stood behind him. Unable to see what was coming next he wasn't able to duck in time and got shoved to the ground. Jaimee knelt over him and growled as her hands closed around her father's throat.
"Jaimee, you won't kill me. You're better than that" he smirked. Jaimee felt a movement in her stomach and loosened her hand.
"You made me have to say goodbye, you made them have to mourn. I knew you would hunt them down if someone didn't die that night so I faked my death so save my true family" Jaimee growled, half-crying to her father. She could feel everyone's eyes on her but she didn't care.
"I'm your family" he growled at her but she didn't growl back or flinch, she just stayed kneeling down by him with a hand on his throat.
"Family don't destroy each other. They protect each other and build each other up" Jaimee told her father. He shook his head.
"If you build them up, they fall down. If they expect the worst then they get a happy surprise when something good happens" Deucalion returned. She shook her head.
"That leads a life full of misery with an occasional drop of happiness. It leaves you shattered" Jaimee snapped, tightening her grip once again.
"Jaimee's right" Cain told his father, stepping ahead of Jaimee's pack. He stopped a few metres from his sister. "She should have told us what she had planned but she is right" he explained. Jaimee watched her brother and smiled, grateful for the support.
"If the Alpha pack didn't see true grieving then they would have figured it out and killed one of you for it" Jaimee told her pack and Derek's. She spotted Isaac who looked a cross between angry and happy, and smiled at him. Jaimee looked back at her battered and bruised father then let him go. "You can have him" she said to Kali, Ethan and Aiden. "But if he ever tries to kill any of mine again, I'll kill him myself" she warned. She stood up and walked out of the bank followed by Brooke.
Julie looked around at the pack and then at Derek.
"How long have you known?" she asked. Everyone looked at her then at Derek, wanting to know the answer just as much as she did.
"I've seen her three times in the last six weeks, but we've spoken on the phone a few times" Derek told them then saw the broken look on Isaac's face.
"You've known for six weeks and you didn't tell anyone?" Isaac whispered. He was still looking at where Jaimee had left.
"Isaac, I'm sorry" Derek said taking a few steps towards his beta.
"What about me? She's my sister" Cain snapped then walked out with Cora chasing after him to calm him down. Isaac walked out after that, following the scent of citrus shampoo, following Jaimee.
"That was everyone? Who's who?" Brooke asked excitedly, she had just seen her fellow pack members and Derek's pack. She had met Derek the first time Jaimee had gone to meet him, she had been the one to scope out who was around and that it was safe.
"Brooke, just stop; That's the first time I've seen any of them in three months and it hurts to see them so broken. They hate me" Jaimee cried grabbing a pillow and sitting on the couch to have a cry. She had been crying a lot more since finding out that she was pregnant and she hated it. There was a knock at the door.
"I'll get it" Brooke grumbled before Jaimee could ask then walked to the front door. Isaac was on the other side, he looked nervous.
"Hi, can I talk to Jaimee?" he asked. Brooke didn't reply, she just opened the door and moved aside. He walked in and instantly spotted Jaimee's dark hair falling down the back of the lounge. He smiled then walked over to her and sat next to his girlfriend.
"Isaac" Jaimee smiled. She hadn't expected him, or well, anyone.
"Hey" he smiled back then kissed her cheek. He noticed Brooke scoff and walk upstairs.
"Isaac, I'm so sorry. I should've-" Jaimee started.
"No. I understand that you couldn't" Isaac told her. He was okay with her lying to him, because she was alive and with him.
"There's something else" Jaimee whispered playing with her hands. Isaac watched her with curiosity. She looked back up at him. "I'm pregnant" she told him quietly.
"What? Who?" Isaac asked in shock.
"I'm pregnant. The baby's yours" she said, watching his expression. She saw the mixed emotions in his eyes. "The night in the cubby, we..." she stopped when she noticed him smile.
"We're having a baby" he grinned. "We're having a baby" he grinned like a lunatic and held Jaimee close. She hugged him back and they sat like that for hours; talking, smiling and laughing while discussing baby names.
Cain stood outside the house he had seen Isaac walked into and stared blankly. His sister was pregnant. She had slept with Isaac. She had slept with this loser and then faked her death while she was pregnant then came back to have her boyfriend back and a baby on the way. He was not happy. He wanted to go back in time and change the current present, he wanted his innocent baby sister back.
So I need name ideas. So far I like: Indie, Luna and Hanna for a girl but I don't know any good boys names! I want to know though; do you prefer a boy or girl when Jaimee has the baby? I know I prefer a girl but I want your opinion.
