The tension in the room was heavy and Kali shifted uncomfortably in the silence, glancing over at Julian every few seconds trying to decide whether or not to tell everyone the truth. Hearing movement downstairs, Julian tensed and Kali hesitantly placed her hand on his arm to reassure him that it was okay.

"It's just the rest of the pack," Derek stated as Isaac, Boyd, Scott, Jackson and Peter entered the room.

"What's going on?" Scott asked, noticing that Kali was hurt and growling low in his throat as he turned towards Julian.

"Little miss perfect over there has been working with him," Erica replied, motioning to Julian with her head and glaring at Kali who rolled her eyes.

"I'm not working with Julian," Kali snapped, "The night my mum died, she wasn't alone in the car... the truth is, if it wasn't for Julian I would be dead as well."

"What are you talking about?" Stiles inquired, looking over at Kali confused and waiting for an answer.

"We were driving home from one of our hikes, when mum had to swerve to miss an animal in the road..." Kali recounted, "the car flipped and rolled a few times, before it came to a stop upside down. I tried to free myself, but my belt was stuck and I could already smell the gasoline."

"What happened?" Jackson mumbled.

"The gasoline caught light and I started to panic," Kali said, "I was screaming for my mum to wake up, but she wasn't responding and then someone was pulling me out... Julian was pulling me out. He got me a safe distance away from the car and then went to go back for my mum who I could hear coughing as the fire got worse, but the car exploded before Julian could get to her."

"What was in the road?" Allison asked.

"At first I didn't know, but then I found out that it was a wolf... an alpha," Kali told them.

"There was another alpha in Beacon Hills?" Stiles inquired, earning a nod from Julian.

"This time the whole pack is coming," Julian added, drawing everyone's attention to him, "I'm willing to stand with you and fight... I want to help if I can."

"Why would you choose to stand with us?" Derek stated, eyeing Julian suspiciously and waiting for an answer.

"They slaughtered my pack... took away all the family I had and I won't watch them do the same here," Julian explained.

"What do you know about them?" Derek replied, the red slowly fading from his eyes as he relaxed and leant back against the wall behind him.

"The pack is made up of six alphas and led by. Wolf named Orion," Julian said, "They're strong and ruthless."

"Wait, you said that the wolf that was in the road was looking for new territory, but that was three years ago..." Allison added with a frown, "Why not come here back then?"

"They would have if the fight with my pack hadn't of left them weakened."

Continuing the conversation downstairs, Kali sat in silence beside Jackson and listened as the pack discussed their newest threat. Julian seemed pretty sure that the alphas would fight and that scared Kali, because from what she could figure... They were extremely powerful.

Not wanting to hear anymore, Kali went out into the kitchen and sat down at the table with her head in her hands. She remembered the night her mum died like it was yesterday, but it had been a while since she had retold the story out loud and it had dragged up a mixture of emotions that she wished she never had to feel again.

Feeling a hand on her shoulder, Kali jumped a little and looked up to find Peter standing behind her. Making them both a coffee, Peter took a seat beside her and offered her a sad smile.

"I know that talking about the accident was hard for you," Peter stated.

"It's been three years and I still ask myself why I survived and she didn't... dad would have been happier if mum had been the one to make it out," Kali mumbled.

"That's not true," Peter argued.

"He told me to leave... I told him that I was heading back here for a few weeks to see everyone and he told me not to bother going back," Kali told Peter with tears in her eyes, "He blamed me for the crash... he was adamant that it was my fault and that I made up the animal in the road, even after uncle John told him that the car had definitely swerved to miss something."

Peter looked at her in shock, before putting his arm around her shoulders and pulling her into a hug. Feeling the pent up emotions reach boiling point, Kali buried her face in Peter's neck and finally allowed the tears to fall.
