A/N: HERE I AM WITH ANOTHER CHAPTER THANK YOU TO EVERYONE ENJOYING THIS STORY IT MAKES ME HAPPY. THERE IS SOME TENSION BETWEEN ASHLEY AND DEREK OF COURSE OVER THE TALIA SITUATION, AND I CANT WAIT FOR HOW THIS PLAYS OUT. AS ALWAYS ENJOY

I woke up to find Derek gone. "why am I not surprised." I walked downstairs to prepare breakfast when I found a note on the counter. She's still staying. I shook my head and crumpled up the paper. "Hello?" I heard my mom say as she opened the front door. I guess she came for Talia. "Hey mom Talia is still sleep, but you can wake her up." of course she didn't greet me and proceeded to go upstairs. I felt my new phone vibrate meaning I got a text. Last name boy: I need to talk to you about this kanima. Why did I agree to exchange numbers? I didn't text him back and got ready for work. "Bye, mom kiss Talia for me." I waited for a response but didn't get one.

I had a lot of books that needed to be put back, so I was organizing them by genre when I felt someone near me. "Why are you a librarian?" I froze and turned around to see Isaac standing there with a smirk on his face. "My question is what did Derek do to get you cleared." "It wasn't Derek" I rolled my eyes and pushed Isaac out my way. "look I don't have time for this just tell me what my idiotic husband is doing." "He's just trying to figure out who the Kanima is." I stared at Isaac as he left the library. I'm worried that Derek is going to pull something why else is Isaac back at school.

Isaac is back

Do you know why Derek tested Jackson

somethings wrong with Lydia

Derek is testing Lydia

Lydia failed the test

coach's room now

don't ignore me

Those are the texts I got from stiles and I still regret giving him my number. I walked into coach's office to see Scott, Stiles, and Allison all huddled together. "Why are we meeting in here?" "Derek's outside waiting for Lydia" said Scott. Fuck. "Waiting to kill her." Allison said. "If he thinks shes the kanima he is." I said now texting my dad. Having kanima issues might have to keep Talia longer. "It's not her" Stiles said. Lydia now its coming back to me, shes the girl stiles was comforting in the parking lot. "Do you like her last name?" I was of course ignored. "She didn't pass the test man." "It doesn't matter because Derek thinks its her." Allison said with an attitude. "If there is one thing I can say about my husband is that he's stubborn." "Derek is your husband?!" Allison said shocked. "Oh my god yes I know shocking." "Derek wouldn't do anything during school right?" Scott asked. "After school he will." I felt my phone buzz to see my dad texted me back. You know whats going to happen soon. Ugh did he really have to bring that shit up. "How about we convince him its not her there could be something in the bestiary." "The book that's in archaic Latin that none of us can read." last name said pissed. "Ashley your grandfather started the book can you.." "no I cant read it only my parents can and I don't see them willing to help you Scott or me." everyone took a deep breathe. "I think I know someone that can translate it" Allison said. "i can try to talk to Derek." I snorted when Scott said that. Derek has made up his mind Lydia didn't pass the test so shes the kanima end of story. "Well if anything happens let me take care of it you guys can't heal like me." well I feel offended. "Yeah cause I haven't been a hunter since I was 10 years old." "Wow really" Stiles said. I just rolled my eyes. Allison decided to pull out her crossbow like a bad ass. "I can protect myself." I guess Chris is training her right. As Scott and Allison were having their love moment I noticed stiles playing with the crossbow. "Style what are you doing!" he pulled the trigger and the arrow flew towards Scott. Luckily Scott caught it before it hit him. "sorry sensitive trigger on that" I just glared at him.

I decided to go with Scott and talk to Derek. I'm happy I bought boots with me and a change of clothes. We arrived at the field to see Boyd standing there. " I wanna talk to Derek." "talk to me" oh wow Boyd talks. I felt someone grab my arm and pull me towards them. Derek was glaring at me. "why must you be involved." we heard a grunt and turned to see Scott tackle Boyd. "She failed the test," Derek said still gripping my arm. "it doesn't prove anything Lydia's different." "I know at night she turns into a homicidal walking snake." "Derek" I couldn't finish because of the pressure on my arm. "I'm not going to let you kill her." Derek turned to Boyd with a smirk. "who said I was going to do it." I gasped Erica and Isaac. "Derek you can't have teenagers killing people, and you're hurting my arm," I said struggling. "Maybe you should think about what side you need to be on Ashley." "I'm choosing the side that's not trying to kill someone right now by squeezing their arm." Derek finally released my arm but put his hand on my waist.

I ignored the rest of the conversation as I felt my arm start to hurt I know it'll bruise by the end of the day. Now I understand why people are so surprised that I'm married to Derek he is a bit of an ass, especially now that he's an alpha, but he wasn't always like this.

Here it was a free period, and I was in the library with a book in my face. Some girls were just teasing me and instead of showing any emotion I just walked past with my head high. I was so into my book I didn't notice Derek sit next to me. "What you reading?" Derek asked me. I slammed the book shut and turned to him. "Why so interested shouldn't you be with your jocks" Derek just chuckled and passed me a paper. I looked at it and was so confused. "What's a carnival?" I asked Derek. He could tell by my facial expression that I was serious. "Man your childhood must have been terrible if you don't know what a carnival is." I didn't like that he was laughing at me and turned back to my book. "Okay I'm sorry look I wanted to know if you wanna go with me, but now there's no asking I'm telling." still with reading I answered. "And how do you expect me to go with you when my father is up my butt 24/7." Derek got up and leaned over me and whispered. "Your smart aren't you" I grinned at him as he left the library.

I snapped out of the flashback when I heard Derek yell no. "Derek you can't do this," Scott said getting mad. I just looked at the sky for answers. "I can't let her live!" Derek yelled. I wish he would release this hold on me. "I was hoping I could convince you, but I wasn't counting on it." I looked at Scott with a smirk on my face that Derek wasn't too happy with. Scott then ran off leaving me with Derek. I looked up at him and yeah he's still glaring. "You knew about this didn't you?" Derek asked. "Okay first, let go of me I'm not one of your little betas second, yes I did cause what your doing is crazy the kanima isn't Lydia and third.." I slapped him in the face. "don't you ever grab me like that again." Derek looked back at me like he wanted to say more but Isaac and Erica were coming towards us. "She left the school with stiles and the others Derek." Derek took his eyes off of me and turned to Boyd "you three take my car and go to Scott's house I'll meet you there." I think everyone could feel the tension in the air since they ran off so fast. "You're driving us to Scott's house so I can keep an eye on you." I raised my eyebrows at him as he did the same gesturing me to my car. Derek took my keys and started to drive. "I can't believe you, Ashley." "What you can't, believe me, I can't believe your willing to kill an innocent girl Derek." "She's not innocent ash." "You don't know that Derek god is it because I'm with Scott on this is that what bugs you." "OF COURSE IT BUGS ME YOU WOULD RATHER TRUST SCOTT THAN YOUR HUSBAND." "MAYBE BECAUSE MY HUSBAND DECIDED TO CAST ME OUT HIS LIFE WHEN HE LEFT ME." Derek didn't have anything to say he just gripped the steering wheel. "LAURA DIED DEREK, AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER TO CALL AND TELL ME, HOW AM I SUPPOSE TO TRUST YOU WHEN YOU DIDN'T EVEN TELL ME ABOUT ISAAC, ERICA, OR BOYD." we came up to Scott's house and saw the three betas waiting for us.

We were just standing there me with my arms crossed fuming. My dad has called me twice, but I couldn't pick up the phone knowing Derek would listen in and get mad. I saw Stiles and Allison peek out the window. Derek taking me wasn't part of the plan at all. I saw them look away from the window. "Isaac go" Derek ordered.

Stiles P.O.V

"I think I have to call my dad," Allison said with tears in her eyes. I started freaking out. "If he finds you here then you and Scott.." "I know" Allison looked so sad. "What are we suppose to do, they're not here to scare us okay their here to kill Lydia." I couldn't deny that it was true. I'm not going to let any harm come to Lydia I know she's not the kanima it cant be her. Time was running out, and I..we didn't know what to do. Ashley was supposed to come and secure the house from Derek, but I guess he wasn't happy with her involvement. I looked down at Allison's crossbow. "I got an idea." Allison looked at me. "Shoot one of them." "Are you serious" "We told Scott we could protect ourselves lets do it. I mean give it a shot right?" "Which one?" she asked. "Uh, Derek but don't hit Ashley okay just Derek preferably the head Ashley can always remarry" Allison started to shake her head. "If Scott can catch an arrow than Derek definitely can." "Shoot one of the three then," I said. "You mean two." what how is that possible there were three out there. I ripped open the curtain and saw Ashley and Derek yelling at each other and Ashley was pointing at the house. "Where the hell is Isaac?"

Ashley P.O.V

I can't believe this. I was done so done with Derek and trying to convince him. I walked off to my car opening the back. "What the hell are you doing?" I ignored Derek's question and grabbed my pistol from the floor. "Ashley don't you dare." I pointed my gun at Derek. "Back off or I swear to god I'll shoot you in the heart." Derek backed up, and I ran to the back door. I heard glass breaking when I entered. Isaac had thrown stiles on the floor. "Hey!" I yelled getting Isaac's attention. He growled at me as I put my gun away. I ran up on Isaac and grabbed his wrists bring me towards him as I kneed him in the stomach and then threw him on the ground. I turned to stiles. "Are you okay style?" he just nodded his head. I felt claws on my shoulders as I was shoved to the floor. I saw Erica head upstairs, but I concentrated on protecting stiles. "Get off my daughters boyfriend" I grabbed Isaac then elbowed him in the jaw knocking him out. "I didn't want to hit a minor." I looked up to see Scott looking at Isaac in wonder. "Where the hell have you been?" "Did you kill him?" Scott asked. I just rolled my eyes. Scott grabbed Isaac, and I saw Allison bring down Erica who was paralyzed. "Hm nice" I said to Allison. We walked outside to see an unhappy Derek. "I think I finally get why you keep refusing me Scott" I felt my phone vibrate again. "Your not an omega your an alpha of your own pack, but you know you can't beat me." Smug ass "I can hold you off until the cops get here." Scott said. I turned my head to hear sirens in the distance oh who the hell called them. I heard a hiss and ran in front of the house. Of course the kanima decided to show itself. I felt Derek pull me behind him to protect me. "Get them out of here" Derek ordered Boyd. Just then Lydia decided to also show herself. "Would someone please tell me what the hell is going on?" wow she sounded angry. Wait who else was in the ….oh no. "Its Jackson" I heard Scott muttered.
